    I tried the complys today but they muffle up the sound, I would prefer not to use them. Are there any other recommendations?

    Tips for deeper insertion/ tighter seal for Sennheiser IE80

    Hi Guys, Despite the millions of tips that come with these IEM's none of them seem to be doing the job well. The best ones for me seem to be the small foam tips but they come off way too easily, every time I shake my head or move around (I wear these over the ear). Do you guys have any other...

    Surround sound on IEM's?

    The receiver I am planning to get is the Yamaha RX-V373. I have decided that it makes more sense to connect everything to the receiver and then connect the receiver to the TV. So I will be connecting the IEM's to the receiver, will I get decent surround sound?

    Surround sound on IEM's?

    Ok at the risk of sounding really stupid here goes: I am setting up a home theater in my living room and here is my probable setup: Roku player ->( HDMI )-> HDTV -> (digital audio out) -> 5.1 stereo receiver -> IEM ( Senn IE80) So my question is will I get surround sound on my ie80's?

    Now that most of you guys have had the ie80's for a while how is the sibilance after burn in? My ears are very sensitive to it and could not stand the ie8 for that reason.

    Not satisfied with ie8's, what's next?

    Hi fellow head-fi'ers it's that time of the year where I spoil myself, my ears actually. I am writing this after finally settling my divorce with the senn ie8's (boy, she really fought for custody of our comply foam tips). Ok, on a more serious note I really wanted to love them, they were my...

    "Cheap" amp for the Senn IE8

    Hi Guys,  I am looking for more oomph from my ie8's and decided that buying an amp would be the best way to go. I was reading threads about this and the "good" amps cost over $300!!!! (Almost as much as I paid for these earphones). Does anyone have any recommendations for a good amp in the...

    Sennheiser warranty service!

    Believe me, i don't usually make (actually never) threads talking about customer service but I just felt like I had to make one. I am also not the person to usually mail in broken products still covered under warranty to companies because I am very skeptical, having read a lot of horror stories...

    Sennheiser IE8 wire problem!

    Hi, One last question, my sennheiser invoice does not really mention any serial number, just the name of the product the the order number, but is it still sufficient to make a warranty claim?   Thank you!

    Sennheiser IE8 wire problem!

    Hi, Thanks for the reply. The nearest Sennheiser service center is pretty far away, how long is the average repair process if I mail the earphones in?

    Sennheiser IE8 wire problem!

    Hi Guys, Today when I picked up my ie8's, to my horror, I found that at the point where the earphone piece is connected to the protective wire coating the underlying wire is exposed. I have been handling my ie8's with the at most care, has anyone else had this problem? The only reason I bring...

    Got the IE8's....a bit disappointed! [UPDATE!]

    Hi guys, thanks for all the replies! I am going to experiment with the tips again... The reason that I stopped doing it after a few tips when they first arrived was because the tips are just a huge pain to remove! Is there like a secret technique to remove them?

    Got the IE8's....a bit disappointed! [UPDATE!]

    Thanks Guys! I will give them a whole week to burn in and see what happens, I am not really interested in any other IEM's because they don't really fit my needs and expectations!

    Got the IE8's....a bit disappointed! [UPDATE!]

    Hi guys, God I did not know that I would end up making this thread but here I am. So i received the IE8's the other day(have had it for about 2 days), unboxed them, just checked to make sure they were real (even though the product was shipped form an authorized dealer (premier sponsor on this...

    Sennheiser IE8 + Comply Tx-400?

    Hi all, I was reading the forums the other day and I found some really negative things about the comply tx-400, about its diameter not being wide enough and thus causing earphone damage. Is this true?

    How do you carry the IE8's?

    I read that the case for the IE's is pretty bad and can actually cause damage to the earphones if stored (since one has to wind the cables pretty tightly). So how do you carry the iem's around?

    Best Deal for the IE8

    Hi all, I have decided on the ie8's, but the prices for new ones (don't want the fakes headache) from authorized dealers are just too high (Lowest is amazon at 399.95). Do you guys know of any other good authorized dealer?

    Hi j57park, how is the noise isolation in the IE8? Also, how much sound does it leak, if any?

    Monster Turbine Pro Gold vs Klipsch Image s4 [UPDATE!!!]

    Hi all, Thanks for all the responses.The UE triple fi's look good but looking at the reviews, it seems that they have questionable quality. The IE 8's are wayyy up there at $385, are they worth it? Also, as K-MONEY put it, I do prefer "fun" earphones, with nice soundstage and good bass, I...

    Monster Turbine Pro Gold vs Klipsch Image s4 [UPDATE!!!]

    Make no mistake that I am in the wrong by comparing two IEM's at vastly different price points. I am only doing this because I want to know what else, more precisely, what more I will hear when I upgrade from the s4's to the gold's. If anyone has had experience with both of these pairs could...
