    Over-The-Ear Version of ****?

    I really enjoy the sound signature of the ****, but I want an iem that's meant to be worn over-the-ear. Are there any iems under $75 with similar sound quality and signature to the **** that can be worn over-the-ear?

    Good bass with forward, airy mids (max $300)

    I'm looking for a new universal iem for $300 max, but I'm not sure what to get.  I've tried the Rockit R-50 and liked the instrument separation and details, but it there wasn't enough bass and it sounded lifeless.  I also didn't really like the Vsonic GR07.  I'm looking at the RE-400, but it...

    Able Planet iems?

    Has anyone ever heard of this brand (Able Planet)?  They seem to have two products that are similar to the Radius DDM (dual dynamic 15/7mm drivers, 24 ohms) but with different housings, and I wonder if these are rebadges of the Radius DDMs.   Able Planet SI100B: ...

    Possible to reshell/rehouse Radius DDM?

    I love the sound of the Radius DDM1/2 and Brookstone Clear dual drive iems, however they are extremely uncomfortable to wear and have poor isolation.  Is it possible to put these into a different housing (either universal or custom), or does anyone know a service that can do that.  These are my...

    Wireless iems for tv?

    I'd like to find a pair of wireless iems that I can use for tv watching, but I haven't been able to find any.  Sound quality doesn't need to be great, I just want to be able to listen to the tv with wireless iems.  Do they even exist?  Also, I have a Vizio E320VA tv (if that matters)...

    IEMs with similar sound to Playaz N3?

    I briefly had a pair of Playaz N3 iems, however within about a week they stopped working.  However I really enjoyed the sound, and I was wondering what iems sound the closest, and have the most similar type of sound to the Playaz N3? thanks

    Brainwavz M2 - are they able to be played loud?

    I've been reading reviews, and the Brainwavz M2 seems to have the type of sound I'm looking for.  However, I also noticed on their spec sheet that they can only handle a maximum of 40mw.   Brainwavz M2: ...

    IEMs with similar sound to FA Silver Bullets

    After reading some reviews, the Fischer Audio Silver Bullets seem like they have the type of sound signature I prefer, however they're somewhat expensive and difficult to find.  Are there any IEMs that have a similar sound/sound signature as the Silver Bullets, and are also less than ~$70? ...

    Necessary to braid headphone wires that will later be sleeved together?

    I'm building my own headphone extension cable, and I'm using three 26 AWG wires to do it (right, left, ground). I'm going to be sleeving the wires together in a nylon multifilament sleeving, and I was wondering it it's necessary to braid the wires before covering them in sleeving, or can I just...

    Best type of cable for recabling iems

    I need to do a complete recable of my iems (from earbuds to jack), and I wasn't sure which type of wire I should use.  I'd like it to be as thin and lightweight as possible, low impedance, balanced, and good sound quality.  I'm very new at this so I really don't know where to begin as far as...

    How to access cables inside earbud in Playaz N3 Nature

    I posted this on another forum but didn't get any responses, so I'm hoping for help here.   I just got a new pair of Playaz Nature N3 iems, and within about five minutes of using them the cable connected to one of the earbuds went bad (loose, no more connection).  I plan on making a...

    Best (non-foam) eartip replacements for M9

    I have the ME Electronic M9 iems, and I'd like to find better (non-foam) eartip replacements for the stock silicone eartips.  I currently use the stock bi-flange eartips, and while they aren't bad, they don't provide a great seal and they pop off the earpieces easily.   Does anyone know of...
