Anyone know when the next meet may be? Just dabbled back into the audiophile world after a 2-year break and would be nice to kick-start with joining some meets.

Hi all, it's been a while since I last checked in on Head-Fi and the IEM industry. I've kind of settled and rolled along with my Westone 4Rs and 1964 Ears Quads for the last 2 years and didn't managed to have the time or effort to seek for a new pair of IEMS.   With that said, I've come to...

Quote: Heck we used to be able to grab some MDR-EX500s for $15 back at Thailand (Sony manufactures them there, and there were a few stock-leaks).        Anywho, FOR CANADIANS WHO MIGHT SEE THIS BEFORE TOMORROW (SUNDAY) ENDS:  ...

I'm out of town (Country, to be exact), until September 6th. So, I probably can't make it to this one. Hope you guys enjoy 

A very weird update:   Earlier today I was listening to my current setup, 120GB iPod Classic --> Homegrown Audio DNA cable LOD --> iBasso D12 --> 1964 Quads.   I suddenly got curious about how digital silence would sound with this setup at the D12's Highest Volume. Thus, I turned off the...

Makes me remember those old times when I had to wait nearly 2 months to get mine, and another month to have them refitted/fixed.    Quote:  

My pre-buy research was pretty much: -read this whole thread thoroughly (was about 130 pages back then)    -read every single details that 1964 EARS, Unique Melody, and JH Audio websites had to offer   -slept on the decision for about 2 weeks     And came up with "Since this will...

I've only had the experience of comparing a 1964 Quad with a pair of custom TF10's remolded by Unique Melody. The case was that I own the quads, and was able to get a good seal on my friend's remolded TF10's (such coincidence indeed).   In terms of bass, the TF10's had a much more present...

Two little questions regarding the SPC cable:   1. how flexible are they? They look to be braided like the stock, but are they as flexible? or stiffer to what level?   2. Do they have any earguides by the connectors (metal wires or molded silicone tubing)? The stock cables have the metal...

Quote: That color scheme sounds familiar somehow... 

I'm mostly an IEM kind of person (Given I'm living in a dorm). I've got:   Monster Turbine Pro Coppers Atrio Pro M5 (The MG7 Driver one) Sennheiser HD595 iBasso D12 Anaconda   I'm hoping someone will be bringing the amp combo Fiio E7/E9 and the Arrow Headstage or Headamp Pico Slim.

The main reason I bought the Supreme is its durability. I am quite sure it can handle your beating quite well. I myself tend to do that as well .   Quote:  

Please count me in as well :)

Futureshop's checkout queue was pretty messed up. Luckily mine worked out fine. My friend was cursing the whole hour (we had to walk over to another friend's house in between his stuck-checkout and the actual-working-checkout).   Quote:  

Exactly as kckc said, I actually had a friend or two offered to help me order, but my bank balances are currently problematic for more than 1 pair right now.   Btw, must report in:   Waited on Futureshop.ca page since 6.30pm, watching the count down. Refreshed the Coppers Info Page on...

At 3% on Checkout Queue Page now LOL   Quote:  

I haven't heard it in a while now (nearly 2 years I guess LoL), but my memory somehow does remind me that it wasn't so sparkly with the trebles, and I did not like it too much.   Quote:   Quote:  

We can metaphorically compare it to Value Added Tax (VAT). The tax is charged regardless of whether you're living in the area or not. The only variance is how much the percentage would be, so Ontario people would get a 13% hit.     Quote:   I'm actually interested in grabbing a...

According to Canadian Monster Cable Customer Service, the warranty is honored worldwide. I've made warranty claims here in Canada before with MTPCs and MTPGs bought from USA/Singapore/Thailand. All honored and replaced without question.   Quote:  

I must again remind you that most provinces in Canada (including the city Toronto) do charge an additional 13% tax on top of all those prices you see, so the MTPCs would actually cost the original buyer a total of $113.00 CAD.   Quote:  

From Hamilton Ontario to Downtown Toronto takes 2 days.   Quote:  

My M5 box says it has the MG7 drivers. Shipped to Toronto though, not sure if that helps you.   Quote:   Shipped Via FedEx from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. (Please take note these were shipped to Toronto, Canada. So might come from a different warehouse.)   Quote:  

Just got my Atrio M5 this morning (Shipped on 12th, received 14th, = 2 days).   Along with the earphones came a letter with a coupon code and a handwritten caption stating, "please feel free to pass this deal onto your family & friends".   "Please visit www.atrio.me and use coupon code...

  As project86 stated, simply another brand that makes mini plugs (3.5mm). I've taken a snapshot of my yarbo plug (The top one) in comparison with the apple earbuds plug (The bottom one). Quote:      

Took one, thanks much    Quote:   Quote: Anyone interested in getting a pair of those AKG K518s? My friend is going to get a pair of the red ones and is looking for someone in TORONTO who might take the other pair off his hands
