ESW9's don't isolate well, I can hear my sister playing clarinet pretty clearly next door with music playing through my headphones and closed doors..

Quote: I own the ATH-ESW9 and they are great phones for vocal songs because of its midrange. The sound signature is very addictive, I now find my Triple.fi 10's rather boring to listen to now. However they do NOT isolate well, you will hear exterior noises and undoubtably at higher volumes...

I've had the TF10's + 1 driver for quite some time now (i'd say around two years and a bit..) but i've never used them as much as i've used the Triple.fi's before they have been remolded by UM. I have been considering repurchasing a set of Triple.Fi's as i really like the highs on those and imo...

Quote: Well with a store-bought non-rechargeable 9V battery (i would guess it's around 500-600mAH), mine lasted for around 12 hours on high-drain. I mean many other portable amps could promise more hours, but you are looking at an amp with no compromises to sound quality and the...

Does anyone know if the colorfly c4 has a "shuffle" function? i'm very tempted to upgrade from my iPod but if i listen to Pop songs i usually like to listen to it shuffled.

how do these compare to the Beyerdynamic DT880 250Ohm? i'm considering to buy my first pair of Beyerdynamic's (actually..my first pair of any decent headphone) and i was wondering if i should buy this or the DT880. Thanks! Waiting anxiously for your reply xP

Quote: haha i have exactly the same situation, i've been looking for an amp for my TF10 (4 drivers) in that price range as well. unfortunately my local headphone stores don't sell the iBasso T3. Would the D12 Anaconda give better sq?

  Quote: Yes i think you should do that. I wish i requested that in the first place, because my remolded customs don't really fit snugly inside my ears and i would periodically have to press on it to prevent the bass from escaping and for better isolation. Well it's for me anyways, not...

Quote: not sure if my contribution will help. but i've bought non-mainstream cables (well not the ones made by UE/Westone/UM etc.) before and my cables don't have memory cables but instead they coat the portion of the cable that fits around the ear with thicker plastic and therefore...

Well when i got my remolded Triple.Fi 10 Pro's (plus additional driver) i bought a Westone ES3 cable and i thought it was pretty decent, although the wire did start to rust after a while (turns green but doesn't affect sound quality), and also the plastic bit that goes around your ears is a...

Turned my Triple.fi's to customs...even the smallest silicone tips/foam tips wouldn't fit my ears :(

I have really small ear canals :/ it's so small that even the awesome guys at unique melody emailed me saying that my ear canals "were like a baby", so needless to say iem tips never fit my ears well (even the smallest kind). I honestly think custom earphones is your solution, because it's...

It would be so awesome if MaoDi could write a guide on the different armature drivers and their sound attributes :)

Thanks for the pictures ^^ They look awesome!!! xD the custom shell packed with so many drivers just makes me more hyped in iem's :)

Hi guys,       Some I was going to purchase an amp (this will be the first decent amp i'll be buying because i've used the Fiio E5 before and i thought it didn't change the sq at all, which kinda discouraged me from buying portable amps for a while), and i was wondering the difference...

Hi guys,       I really think its time for me to buy a decent amp. I've only used a Fiio E5 before and honestly i thought it made no difference to the music i hear whatsoever, i actually thought the music sounded more muddy and nasal when it came out of the E5. I've always heard that...

Hi guys,       I was thinking of purchasing a Fiio E7 as an upgrade to my E5's and was left confused when reading several articles about it. I am a complete toddler when it comes to amps and form the articles that I've read, I've came to the conclusion that the E7 could only be used with...

Hi guys,     I was recently thinking of picking up a pair of Etymotic ER4B's, but I've read that this pair of earphones requires an amp to drive it for best performance. I was wondering if the Fiio E5 is enough? because it's the only amp i have :3     Thanks!

Hi, After turning my UE Triple.fi 10's into customs (with additional mid driver) I wanted to get a pair of headphones. I live in Hong Kong and I was quite interested with the Audio Technica ESW9 and the Denon D2000. The shop I looked at sold this at similar prices. I mainly listen to...

I believe they use this Chinese delivery company called Apex. You could check it out: 全一快递

@aj-kun: i sincerely hope your fit is perfect at first attempt mine wasn't and i had to send it back, now i don't know what they have done to it :S @royhendo: i had similar colours to those transparent dark grey monitors and i wrote down 'translucent black' on the order form...just wanted...
