Thanks for all the responses. I will continue to search the interwebs until such time as I find a pair of X5s or X10s under 150. FS forum, Amazon, Audio Advisor, B&H and just plain ol' google.

I've been interested in buying some X5s, been searching the threads. X10 vs X5, etc. People keep mentioning getting them cheaper than the MSRP of 200. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry to bump this thread but where can you find X10's under 200!!? I've been dying to try a pair, mom stole my ue700 and girlfriend "borrowed" my q-jays. I need a replacement pair but I can only find X10's for $300+

I've had mine for a while now. But it was the experience that was great. Kaysen is fast with the return emails, (But would only answer once a day) and she personally answers the 800 number. Free shipping both ways for any modifications. I sent them back once, no questions asked trimmed the...

Honestly, it's the filter. I bought mine brand new and the green was there from the start. It's somewhat of a mesh but very tightly dont because you cannot see through it at all. It's stuck in and there is no way to remove it. The way the 700's are, using comply tips the only cleaning I've...

After doing a bit of searching, I ended up choosing to go with the Monster Turbine. A few members claim the Turbine have the same sound signature as Grado. I also had a set budget and luckily a pair went on the FS forum. I'll be getting them soon, hopefully they do somewhat sound the same as the...

I started with the SR80i's as well. Explore the Amplification for sale forum, find amps that might interested you (in terms of price and size, etc) then use the search feature and see what people have to say about them. I've seen a mini3 for sale now and then.

I am waiting on my Shadow... and my RE0s. It's good to know that there is good synergy, after the emptied bank account!

If Canada, I'd like throw my hat in the ring.

Like the title says, the output jack on my Corda Move are clear on top so I can see right inside each one (Input and Output). The output jack, half of it is white/grey and sound has essentially stopped in the left side of my headphones. Obviously it burnt or something. Wish I could post...

Sorry to bump this thread but... Ting.Mike, your signature says your past amps are the RSA Shadow, TTVJ and the ALO Rx. What do you think about them? I'm trying to justify the upgrade from the Tomahawk.

1. what IS your price range? 2. have you considered an amp with bass boost? ie, Go-Vibes?

I ended up modding my SR80i's and changing the headband to the jmoney leather one... Holy crap the comfort level when through the roof! I had some AKG 240s and a ton of IEMs but the Grado SR80i are by far the best headphones I've head. I have a small budget and will probably not upgrade but...

Yea, Im with estreeter lol what about portables. I ended up with a RSA Tomahawk, after trying an iBasso D10 and hating it. BUT the D10 drove my SR80i's great but were not enjoyable for any of my IEMs. Try googling the D10 and Grado, there seems to be some synergy there.

I'm pretty sure the whole on the knob is where the screw goes in to keep it in place.

Oh, and your thread should have probably been posted in Computer Audio because it's more for a computer problem than headphone problem!

First for all, welcome to head fi and sorry about your wallet! I have a macbook as well, and I suffer from the same problem. Except it's with Grado SR80i and AKG 240S. My IEMs don't seem to have a problem. Apparently this is a widespread problem with the unibody macs, there is really...

Why hasn't anyone suggested the UE 700's? I have them and they are amazing... plus they are literally the new and top model of the super.fi series! Right above the Super.Fi 5p's

I second the CX-300s. I've heard them, not bad and well under $50 and 2 year warranty. It's a good way to introduce someone to better than stock without spending the bank.

Airports are mostly trained to scan for weapons during the screening process. I don't mean to sound ridiculous but its a lot easier than you think to bring things through. I travel across the world every year, and nothing has ever gone wrong. They've checked my computer for traces of...

Oh, prob should have mentioned... PM me if you are interested I can send pics but if you aren't, I'll probably end up holding on to them and pray my ears eventually get bigger!

Well, I dont know how much interest you have but a pair of Super.Fi 5 pros. I used them for about two weeks about a year ago. I got tiny ears, ended up buying the Super.Fi 4s and I just got a pair of UE 700s. I wasn't going to sell them because I didnt think it was worth the hassle. They...

Yea, I agree with sennshead. Had one for a while, played around with the gain switch for a while and ended staying on low gain but it was personal preference. Whatever you like better.

I live in Canada and shipping sucks. For actual stores, cables are basically double the price. I post a WTB: mini to mini interconnect (Canada). And got two offers for custom made ones... I mentioned my budget was $35. I got answers within 4 hours of posting. Consider it. Just post what you...
