    Have Chinese ( Soundcore) and Beats OTE but.....

    Not a huge headphone user, but when I do use them I do want to hear quality, crisp quiet, the way it is intended. So I told myself I would look up the Bose 700's and check them out. Then I saw the price tag of $399. Ok, I know I have not been in the crowd lately on headphones, but really? 400...

    Bose QC35 but as much as a car payment?

    I know audio retail is the most inflated products around. Maybe even more then mattresses. I decided to look for some Bluethooth quiet over the ear headphones. When I saw some of brand names I was familiar with, then saw the prices I almost fainted. I mean I have this pair of wired Sony's I...

    My too sensitive ears. Looking for wireless (BLUETOOTH) over/around the ear headphones

    I have a pair of Sennheiser HD25-II headphones I use at home and love them. The sound is GREAT and I'm very use to the way they sound. I use them with my itouch and another MP3 player. Now, I'm looking for a wireless bluetooth headphones and have already had Westones that cost me $400 and...

    On the hunt for good quality BLUETOOTH over the ear/neck...

    Ok, I finally bit the bullet and got a nice Android tablet. Very sweet, I love it. The only thing I need is a good quality BT headphones to go along with it. I have bought a real cheap $40 pair on Amazon to hold me over. I would LOVE if Sennheiser made their HD25-II wireless, because I have that...

    What happened to the old system?

    I used this forum a while back and just came back to check things out. I see the system software has changed but it doesn't look like for the better. I don't even see a cursor in my post so I don't even know where I'm starting to type. What happened here?

    Marshall MINOR in ear

    Anyone try these yet? Suppose to stay in your ear with a new system they made.

    Senn HD-25-1-II

    I got these the other day. Love them! Much smaller than I expected, which is great. The sound is awesome, and coming from my Westone 3's, I wasn't disappointed at all. I just can't stick things in my ear. Gave up on in-ear. Oh well. Anyway, do these need to break in via speaker wise? Also...

    Foam tips for Westone 3's

    I've gotten the regular grey comply's that fit these just right. Are there any other comfortable foam type tips around that fit these earphones? I've kept hearing about the Shure olives all the time. I know they won't fit the Westone's but are other olives that fit the W3's? Thanks.

    Types of signature sound

    Can the experts throw down a real quick response on the general sound these brands have with headphones? NON-IEM. Grado Sennheiser Sony AT and any other particular one you may want to include. "Still" looking for a good pair of portable/home headphones. Single cable with overall...

    IE8 and W3

    Can't we hook these up to a meter and see the output results that these are producing? I'm curious to see where the IE8 stands on the sound stage, by the sound and not opinion. Looking to get a custom made, but I've never had such a hard decision. Heck, even my UE 700's laying around sound...

    HD25-1 II alternatives up the ladder?

    These aren't cheap as it is. $199 is the regular price around here for them. I've heard great things about them, and are very robust great for porting around all over. Are there any models out there that sound better but isn't larger? I was going to maybe get those V-jays but they are open.

    When will Etymotic's make a universal?

    When will Ety's come out with a universal fit like the Westone's? I think those would be awesome.

    Wax - we all have it in our ears...

    I clean my ears everyday. Never have wax build up and never had any issues. When using the comply foam do they "soak" up wax? How long do they usually last before you replace them?

    V-Jays very interesting new portable but how are they?

    I am very interested in these portable headphones. They include a 40mm mylar speaker and neodymium magnet and a copper clad aluminum coil. Also, 24ohm impedance. Who has these????

    Ultimate Ears 700 - small but good

    I'm thinking of selling these IEMs. I bought them in the end of July so they still are in warranty. If anyone is interested, please let me know. I've rarely worn them and have all the extra buds and small case it came with. I do think the sound from them is incredible. The comfort factor against...

    Where did my headphone money go?

    Well, I slapped $300 down a universal professional remote control for my home theater system. That money was going to be used for maybe the HD-25 II and now have to wait longer. Ughhhh!

    itouch output that bad?

    I was fooling around with my itouch and for the first time went into the EQ settings area. I have the Westone 3's. After selecting the "higher bass" EQ mode the IEMs sounded horrible. The bass wasn't even bass, but a thumping pluuuuf. Can I assume this is because the output of the itouch just...

    Recommendations Westone 3 to Custom....

    I have a pair of Westone 3's that I absolutely love. I'm interested in getting customs made so the fit will be perfect. What is the process I need to go through to get molds? Is the mold called something in the audio world? Will the place (ear place) I goto understand what they need to know and...

    Still Looking....shoot me. Gotta have single sided cable for some reason.

    I'm still looking for a decent headphone. I've found my ultimate Westone 3's for in-ear and now need a model that is preferrably on the ear. I've checked out several, but only online. Too bad I can't listen to them. ATH-M50 Senn HD25 II ATH-ES7 - if these had single cable design I would...

    ATH ES7 --- Senn HD25 II

    Are these two models even comparable? The HD25's are much more expensive.

    Very happy my Westone 3's are comfortable an deliver!

    Was worried even after I bought them, thinking I would never be able to stick anything in my ears. After using about 12 different ear phones, they all boiled down and one was standing last. The Westone 3. I just can't believe how comfortable these are. I sleep on my side with them in and no...

    Will Apple itouch work with no amp and Senn HD-25 II?

    I'd really hate to carry around another small device.

    Ear canals are not straight, why buy straight...

    Straight IEM's never just fit right. Even at the highest level and expense if they weren't made to some what fit a human ear they just won't fit properly. I've wondered how people get away with buying the regular straight IEM's? Even our ear canals aren't really straight. Has IEM shape peaked...
