ACS Evoke Studio Universal impressions, with a Phonak Audio PFE 112 baseline
Thought this thread was dead and buried. Quote: Yeah, the isolation is all right, they come with a good set foam tips of small, medium and large. However I've realised that the medium doesn't seal perfectly and the large is too uncomfortable for me, but that's obviously a case by case...- jiamenguk

ACS Evoke Studio Universal impressions, with a Phonak Audio PFE 112 baseline
So recently the jack strain-relief on my Phonaks started to fall apart, absolutely heart breaking after 5 long years, but what was exacerbating was the fact that the Phonaks have been out of production in a while, and not only so there didn't seem to be any easy way to get my hands on a new set...- jiamenguk

Replacement for Phonak Audeo 112's?
I'd been out of the IEM game in a while (like, quite a few years), having got the Phonak Audeos and later on a pair of Sennheiser HD595s, however now my Phonak's are starting to show signs of wear (after 5 years or so) and it's getting harder and harder to get filters here in the UK. So, I was...- jiamenguk

Looking for the "Best" recordings of the usual classical favorites.
Verdi's Requiem by Georg Solti and the Vienna Phil with Sutherland, Pavarotti and pals is pretty good in my opinion: (UK Link) http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000GUJZVE/ref=dm_dp_cdp?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1308417937&sr=8-8 -
Flawless albums
Just want to name some from my bank of music, in order from most subjectively flawless to less-but-still-quite flawless (linked with what I think is the best track in the album, because let's face it, sometimes one part of the album is more flawless than other parts combined): The Beatles -... -
real bass (live music rant)

Epic symphonic work (Sound tracks, Classical, etc)
Quote: Then you are excused, haha. And yeah, Code Geass was just epic, it was just an epic anime that provided so many different forms of entertainment, it was ridiculous and good, then in the second season it got ridiculous and sorta bad, then in the end it just got ridiculous. But... -
Epic symphonic work (Sound tracks, Classical, etc)
This might be the music you're looking for: It's anime, I know, but if I'm guessing right, this should be more in the vein for the music you're looking for, most of the related also have choirs. What you can also have a look at Hans Zimmer's Inception album, mind-blowing movie, mind-blowing... -
The Beatles, which album next?
While my favourites are Abbey Road and White album, none of the Beatle's albums are actually bad, and in my opinion any of their albums is a good starting/continuing position for people to get into their music. Warning: Anything is good, EXCEPT Yellow Submarine. There's like what? 6 actual... -

Epic symphonic work (Sound tracks, Classical, etc)
Yeah, erm... Beethoven's 9th, sit down, enjoy, and subsequently jizz. Edit: By familiar, do you mean you've listened to all of it? or just a crappy snip bit that was cliche-rised by culture? It absolutely pains me when I see a "Simply Beethoven" boxset in HMV and to find only the 4th... -
Reference tracks to test bass?
Pretty much everything by Massive Attack's got deep, deep bass. Though the "How To Destroy Angels" EP by the titular band is not light on bass either. -

Find a highest rated song on youtube
By that theory, if I posted a theoretical obscure track on youtube, and someone clicked on like, by having only 1 vote, i'd have a 100% like rate, and therefore my theoretical track win. And for something not hypothetical, this is just something i found while browsing another thread... -
What is earphone really durable?
Actually the new PFE's not a new model, it's an entry grade model that's pretty much the same hardware wise but have less accesories with a different filter than before. But great earphones non-the-less and lowers its price substantially- jiamenguk

Phonak Perfect Bass 012 & 022 - new models
If this is the PFE plus bass and selling for only £80, people, we may have a winner. Can't wait for comparisons with the original PFE's, or maybe even get a pair to compare myself. (Note to self: EXAMS AND REVISION FIRST)- jiamenguk

AMP Played Very Loud
Well, I do understand why you might be upset now, and I think I actually know exactly what you're talking about. Basically, the headphone jack on your laptop only outputs enough power for earphones, but however the turtle beach micro uses the USB port, and since it doesn't have volume control on...- jiamenguk

Ok? Thank you? Erm... I didn't say I needed any help, since you were the one asking for help. I will admit that my knowledge is limited, and that I might be wrong, so, even if you're not helping me, should you be helping others to help you by at least telling us what amplifier you're using, so...- jiamenguk

AMP Played Very Loud
The idea of an "amp" (short for "amplifier" see: any existing english dictionary) is to make... the sound... louder... If you were under the impression that it was going to improve the sound quality, you're not correct. An amplifier may make a source with a small output sound better since the...- jiamenguk
