Sparkle & Atrio can now be used in the same sentence...
I'll keep this short. As many of you may know, Futuresonics has recently updated the driver on their Atrio universals to what they call an MG7. My understanding was that they did this to address a valid criticism of past Atrio models that they lacked & clarity/detail/treble of other higher end...- jleewach

Popping noise when inserting IE7's/IE8's
Hey guys. I've noticed something when trying my new senns, that may have been brought up previously, though I cant find anything on search. When I place my IE7's and IE8's in my ears, I always seem to get a loud popping noise after the seal is made & I push in. Is this the driver diaphragm...- jleewach

Klipsch Custom 3 w/ Good Cables?!
I just ran by my Ultimate Electronics store to pickup one of their Klipsch Custom 3 sets on clearance, and was quite surprised upon opening them. Everything appeared the same as the other K. Custom sets I've had in the past; same packaging, manuals, accessories, etc... However, when I popped the...- jleewach

Your ears have betrayed you young Skywalker...
Ok, I've always been a sucker for detail-oriented, neutral-sounding headphones & have preferred the sound of ety-like earphones that have somewhat lacked quantity in the bass-dept. That being said, I think I'm being slowly converted into a bass-head by my newfound loves, the Atrio's. As many...- jleewach

SE530 (I think I hate Shure)
Well guys, I just purchased & received my first pair of Shure SE530's yesterday, and the sound was pretty good. I have to admit that I enjoy the triplefi's detail over that of Shure, but they still had a unique & enjoyable sound. That being said, are these things built like crap? I tried...- jleewach

Well, I received my heavily discounted Klipsch Custom 2's today to replace my fallen PFE's (rest in piece ), and a couple members asked that I post comparisons between the two, so here goes. First off, I LOVE the design of all three of the customs in Klipsch's lineup. I really enjoy the...- jleewach

RIP - My beloved PFE's
Sadly, my recent need to get some cash back, as well as a malfunction causing the left earphone to go out has forced me to return my beloved PFE's back to Phonak for a refund. I have a chance to score some Klipsch Custom 2's for a much lower price & I need the money. While I hope to enjoy the...- jleewach

Hey all, As stated in some of my earlier posts, I recently purchased the Phonak PFE's due to the overwhelming reccomendations from fellow head-fi'ers. Needless to say, I've been on a search for several months to find the perfect iem that suits my taste in sound signature. Something that...- jleewach

Phonak PFE = head-fi is making me poor
Hey all. For anyone interested, I’ve jumped on the bandwagon & ordered a pair of the PFE’s about an hour ago (and they’ve already emailed me saying the things shipped, if that’s true, I’m stunned). Anyway, I decided to move up from the superfi 3’s and try these out. I know there are tons of...- jleewach

UE Cable - is it crap?
Hey all. I just received my Altec Lansing UHP336 (superfi clone) and just had a quick question about the user-replaceable cables.

Yuin PK2 (how can it be?)
I've heard numerous praises on these earbuds, but cannot understand how they can be that good. Would someone who owns them be able to describe exactly how they sound?
