Prior to the TF10, I used to use a Shure e500s, but there was just way too much bass for my taste. I wonder what the SE425 sounds like though...   Quote:

Interesting, where's the best place to purchase a pair (T-Peos H-100)?

My old UE Triple-Fi 10s from 2007 are falling apart (I had to glue them together this morning) and I considered buying another pair at Amazon, but thought maybe there might have been a few new and exciting developments in the IEM market since then.     I listen primarily to classical...

I haven't tried a lot of headphones mentioned in this thread, but I do use the HD650 most of the time to listen to a lot of classical music and find them perfectly acceptable. The violins come through perfectly fine solo or in ensembles. I think the level of realism depends on the recording. One...

I can imagine this strapped to the chest of a contestant in Stan Lee's reality show, "Who wants to be a Superhero?" --Edit fixed grammar!

Seems that the L-shaped miniplug broadens out too much at where the contacts meet the mold, so you can't use them with the iPhone's recessed headphone port. Edit --- Apparently, none of my earphones fit in securely. I also just read the earlier threads about the requisite adapter. Not too...

I personally do not gain anything from CNet's reviews because they cover information that is not really relevant to what I want to know. Answers to your questions: 1. Probably about the same temperature at which you should stop using your iPod. I believe there are some specs for operating...

Actually, you can find them on eBay, though slightly overpriced after shipping.

I guess mine is missing this option. I am using Firmware version 1.03 which iRiver Plus 3 claims is the latest version. Quote: Originally Posted by derwersei In the "Select EQ" menu I can choose between "SRS", "UserEQ", "Normal" and a number of presets such as "Jazz". Since...

Quote: Originally Posted by derwersei I not true, I think "Select EQ" -> "Normal" equals to no EQ (correct me if i'm wrong) Actually that's EQ, not SRS. Putting an inline resistor like a volume control can eliminate the hiss, but you also lose a lot of the detail and add a bit...

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried the large tips and they are uncomfortable and sometimes pop out. I think the problem is that I need slightly deeper tips rather wider ones. The medium flexible tips on the Shure E500 also fit securely, but they are also slightly longer. I guess I will try...

Anyone?

I received these a couple days ago and have been burning them in (treble sounds, but when I tried wearing them, none of the tips seem to fit and seal my ear canals very well. The small tips fall out of my ears and the medium ones are a little bit painful (and also seem to slip out occasionally)...

"Mac AV" brought up memories of the Quadra 660 and 840AV (as well as the PowerMac series).

Ok, I am going to through this list... according to your requirements, you only want to be able to play music out of it and check your e-mail. -Antec P180 Black Case Nice case, a bit large in case you were looking for something inconspicuous. -Seasonic S12 550W Waste of power. Your...

I have E500's, not the E4, but I just got some Comply tips and they seem only to reach the little ridge when pressure is applied. They do not go over the ridge in the same fashion that all of the Shure tips are designed to fit. So far, I prefer triple-flange tips due to the extra isolation and...

Here are some options: First, you will need a headphone amp, unless you already have one. The next step is to purchase a SqueezeBox 3 from Slim Devices. You have 30 days to return it, but lose the shipping costs if you exercise this option. If you are not happy with the SqueezeBox 3...
