I'm pretty happy with my M750s, kept my ears warm during the winter anyways! They certainly lean on the bass heavy side, probably too much bass for audiophiles but dammit it's addictive! I've used them most days for the last year, and they've taken a beating. I've had to repair them twice. The...

  Quote: Sorry for not replying sooner, I've been pretty busy lately.   I know I said I was going to put up an extensive review but I haven't had time really. Basically the M90s are pretty good but I never use them. They obviously don't sound as good as CK10s, there's less mids...

Yeah I really don't expect them to sound as good, I just hope they aren't that bad.   I'm not a believer in reshelling myself, I don't see the merit really. If you want customs, pay for them to be done right.   As for the post, that's the picture I've seen before of them opened. I think...

Bit of a saga;   So maybe three months ago I started having trouble with my CK10s. I bought them off a fellow head-fier (music_4321, who has been nothing but helpful throughout all our correspondence) last February. Naturally I absolutely loved them, they got hours of use every day for...

For $40 a 2.1 system will likely give you bloated and imbalanced bass, where as you could spend the extra money on nicer 2.0 speakers and just crank them a little. If as you say it's for your bedroom and assuming your bedroom isn't too big in my opinion that'd be the better route to go.

I reckon if you're going low budget, you will probably get better value out of a decent 2.0 system than a $40 2.1 system

Aphex Twin - Ageispolis is one I go back to again and again for it's spaced out high end and punishing bass tones Radiohead, mostly though because I know it all fairly inside out so it's easy to judge the subtleties. Their varied sound and the high production values of the last few albums...

The worst culprit for me is clubs. I usually come out with one ear way worse than the other, and I could never figure out why, then I realized it was talking to people that usually did the worst damage.Trying to hold a conversation in really load clubs means leaning in and shouting in each...

This happened to me often enough with my Klipsch Custom 2s. I knew it could happen and was always careful enough when removing them, but then like yourself I bumped into someone I knew and yanked them out to talk, leaving the tips behind. I didn't mind so much at first until I asked the...

My first IEMs were E2cs, which I asked for for my birthday, since they started me off, they can't complain since! Also I've had a job for ages, so once they stopped giving me pocket money or anything, that was it for any input they had on what I spent my money on!

I'd like to put in a quick request for Sony MDR-V150s, just out of curiosity's sake, since 9 out of 10 pairs of 'phones I see around college are these or Sennheiser HD20-(who cares which, they're all horrible) Purty please

Just checked out the newest Zune video podcast and they revealed 4.5 will have XVID support. Big yay! Dunno if this is really news or not, but it's the first I've heard about it. Now, to decide what to get on my original???

Well your point was a bit vague then, it seemed to imply manufacturers in general

Joker was right, to make a graph of that whole chart was pretty crazy. So much data! To get around this I've only included the better value of the lower cost 'phones, and I've excluded some I didn't think most people would be able to get their hands on anyway. Here goes! By the way, the...

I'll take that table off you joker, although I take your point there is an awful lot of data there for one graph. Still, I might break it up into a few smaller ones and see if I can come up with something useful.
