And besides, this is all subjective because the new iPhone is coming out in 4 days. :D

Quote: ??? I always thought it was the UE customs line that was the fun one.

Quote: Not sure about your first question, but there have been a couple Jerry Harvey Customs sales around there, so check it out!

Sure, I've seen a couple customs sold on the FS/FT forums. As for reshelling goes, there's Unique Melody, Fisher Audio/Fischer Audio/Fischer Hearing (I forget, one of them reshells, though) for 80-150 + earmolds

Quote: Sure, no problem. I've never tried anything from Ultimate Ears besides some really low end stuff, so I cannot vouch for them. I'm almost positive both the SE115 and the S4 use dynamic drivers, which generally pump out more bass-heavy, less accurate sound, though there are many that...

I did the reverse and I found myself preferring Klipsch's sound signature more. If the majority of your music library consists of classical music, I would recommend the RE0's or something besides those two.

Quote: Wait so you prefer them over the E500's?

Quote: It's fine, we solved the problem. No need to be mad on Head-fi.  

  Sumflow. But it's okay because it was for a legitimate reason.

Quote: Well he did PM me and "harass" me to an extent, so I assumed that I offended some people. And no, it was not a mock laugh.   

I should be able to test out one of Head-Direct's new RE-Zero sample because I would faithfully write an unbiased review. Because I listen to a broad amount of genres, I'd be able to appreciate the RE-Zero's ability to "adapt" in certain ways to my music, and thus help Head Direct improve them.

Quote: I agree with you with your opinions... But realistically speaking, what matters is that he's enjoying the sound; no one can bash him for that.

I'm liking the math behind it :)

Quote: Exactly. Congrats on finding phones you like.  

Quote: I stopped after about 100 or so... It sure is entertaining though. 

To be completely honest, any of the IEM's you listed above should satisfy you if this is your first high-end purchase. You really can't go wrong with any of them, unless you're unbelievably opposed to a specific sound signature.

Quote: Haha, sorry if I offended anyone who differs from my opinion, but that assumption is just what I gathered after lurking around here daily for awhile. I should have added, IMO.

Quote: I'm not one to say because I don't personally own them or enough audio equipment to compare them to, but there's a massively popular thread going around. Search EarSonics SM3 Appreciation Thread and I'm pretty sure you can find it. If I recall correctly, somewhere deep in the...

Quote: I'm pretty sure Fisher Hearing remolds for $80. EDIT: Fisher Hearing, Fischer Audio, Fisher Audio...I don't recall their differences, but it's bound to be one of those three.

I think you might have a more consumer-based preference to your sound (Immense bass quantity). I'm pretty sure the majority of head-fiers tend to prefer more neutral and analytical sound, but thanks for doing the comparison regardless, and just stick with what you enjoy listening to. 

Quote: But be warned that a sound distortion/change is a plausible side-effect.
