    Sennheiser IE60 Review and Impressions Thread ~

    I want to purchase the Sennheiser IE60 but I never have tried the IE line for Sennheiser because they are usually more expensive than the CX line. I have owned the Sennheiser CX 300, 500, 680, 880 and 980 canal headphones. From reading forums over the years, I have discovered that in general the...

    Reply to review by 'usama' on item 'IE 60 - Audiophile Grade Hi-Fi Sound Isolating In Ear Earphones'

    I want to get the IE line for Sennheiser but from what I have experienced read, if I want noise isolation, I should stick to the CX line.

    Sennheiser IE60 Review

    Have you owned other in ear canal sennheisers? If yes, how do these compare to them? I bought the cx980 but found out that the IE60 have the lumeller/double flange tips that I enjoyed so much on cx500.

    [FYI] Various IEM's tips pictorial comparison (updated Sept 29th, 2011)

    The foam tip included with the cx 980 provides the best isolation but I dislike using foam tips because they degrade over time. Help me find silicone rubber double or triple flanged tips for my cx 980 that will fit. I have included pics of the stem for cx 980 to help in the search. If someone...

    Has anyone gone back to hearing the iPOD stock earbuds after being away for a long time?

    I almost felt like crying, when I had to use my stock HTC earbuds, after my sennheiser cx 500 died. Gladly, I only had to suffer for about 3 days before I upgraded.

    Sennheiser cx 980 thoughts and impressions

    I don't claim to be an audiophile. In fact, due to my upbringing around my culture's folk music, I would label myself a bass-head.   To give you an idea of how unreliable my thoughts are compared to other headfi'ers, here is my somewhat accurate IEM history:   1995-2006: many crappy 10$...

    Sennheiser cx 880i (iphone) any experience with them?

    I found a good deal on these. A deal I wished I saw before I jumped on getting the Future Sonic Atrio M5's. Although, I know I should give the atrios a chance before I return them. I just have not found the right tip yet.   I used to have the cx500 so I was looking for a similar sound and I...

    Review, Future Sonics Atrios: Comparison between different tips

    Thank you for making this thread. Right now, I am using the grey tips from fs for my atrio m5 mg7 "environmentally friendly" addition headphones because they are most comfortable at the moment. I will give the small silicone tips a try for sure later on.

    [REVIEW] Future Sonics Atrio M5 with MG7 transducer

    Thank you for this comprehensive and informative review of these headphones. I just recently purchased the atrio M5's, after listening to music with my sennheiser cx 500's for over 2 years. I loved my cx 500's but I stopped caring for the cx 500 like they were a child after two years then they...

    Fake Monster Turbine Pro Copper: Comparing REAL vs FAKE

    I just bought some monster turbine gold pair off of kijiji seller in Alberta Canada. There are no typos on the packaging and model # near the serial barcode is MH TBB-P IE GLD. However, at the top it is fully sealed. There is no hole for it to hang like others have mentioned. But I hope that is...

    Sennheiser CX500s or CX300 IIs?

    I think it is a better choice. The volume control is not sensitive. You would have to slide it with your finger to move it, rubbing against your shirt won't move it. By the way, I only tried the CX300 originals not the CX300-II.

    Sennheiser CX500s or CX300 IIs?

    I have owned both the CX500 and cx300. I kept the CX500 because of the volume control, the higher quality build, and the CX500 did not have over-powering mid-bass like the CX300. Yes, you will have to go under your shirt to use the volume control. When I wear the cx500 under my shirt, the...

    I had 3 pairs that came in the package that were replaced every 4-6 weeks then never bothered purchased replacements.

    Legit CX500?

    There are double-flanged tips in all the pics, except the one with everything out of the package but the angle of that pic sucks. My mesh filter thing is also silver colour.

    Legit CX500?

    I own the CX500 and comparing my pair to those pics in the auction. All the pics look legit, except that the [S] sennheiser logo in the left earbud pic looks like the paint is wearing off. Whereas, my CX500's do not show any wear on the [S] logo on the back of both left and right earbuds. Maybe...

    Sennheiser IE8 Impressions Thread

    Is the isolation up to par with the lower CX models of sennheiser? I wish I could go to a store and bring my own foam-under-silicone tip and try out the IE8.

    Sennheiser CX 95 Vs. CX 55 (cx55 cx95)

    I would like to know as well. At one point, I almost purchased the CX55 from Futureshop for 60$ USD. All I know, the CX95 is supposed to be the top model of the CX series, right behind CX6. Nobody knows where the CX55 fits on the CX product line.
