Beyerdynamic DT-1350   $233.49 (Seller - Amazon)   http://www.amazon.com/Beyerdynamic-DT-1350-80-Supraaural-Monitoring-Applications/dp/B004QMH8KI/

I have not heard the gr07 mkii, but besides that, you should also consider tdk ba200. It's fairly neutral.

I have not listened to re262 yet. I read the review from sound and vision, the only time they talked about the sound of ba200 is towards the end of the first page. S&V makes it sound like everything is wrong with ba200, bass is feeble and undefined, mid response is uneven, treble is sibilant...

Don't be a jerk is a good rule of thumb.

Quote: Around 2-3 times a year. The last 30% was during black friday, 25% around christmas. I think...

just for future reference, camelcamelcamel is a great site. Amazon price history and price watch.

He asked for bass that will make him flinch and you recommend Brainwavz b2? You shouldn't recommend it just because it fits your taste, an analytical iem is not what the op is looking for. OP - check out Atrio MG7, great iem for bass head. You should also check out triple.fi 10, you may be...

Not sure if you're from the US, but Groupon (and its competitor LivingSocial) is pretty popular here. I and most of my friends use it pretty regularly for goods, services, restaurants coupons, etc.. I've send complaint twice about businesses who refused to fulfill the coupons/services and have...

If BA200 is as good as people are saying, then even at 145 (on amazon right now), it is a steal. um3x and gr07 cost considerably more than what you want to spend. Just pick one and don't look back, or flip a coin...you'll probably be happy with either one. This forum could drag you into this...

tdk ba200 recently went down to 139? on amazon, others have said it's comparable to um3x, though there are differences...worth checking out, and maybe put it on camelcamelcamel to see if it drops below 140 again.

TF10 has already been discontinued, so most likely no

I've heard couple of people on here mentioning bongo and shipito, you can look into them to see if they're good companies...I've never used them because I live in the US, :).

se425 is fairly neutral with a slight mid emphasis, se425 with olive was very comfortable for me and isolated pretty well. You should look into buying it in the US through a shipping service (the store ship it to their warehouse and then the warehouse ship it to you with a fee). I got mine from...

ElectronicsExpo has Denon D1000 around $100 (US) pretty often, may worthy keeping a look out for.

I've had both se425 and tf10, if you don't like neutral, you won't like se425 (in my case, I don't like veiled phone, so I liked se425 a lot more than tf10). SE425 is neutral with slight mid emphasis, not much punch in the bass for you. SE425 with shure olives isolates very well, and was very...

Quote: should be, EarphoneSolution is legit. They're authorized dealers for the stuff they sell, I've bought from them twice already.

Quote: Most likely you will not get the 2 years warranty with Shure, I don't think there are any fake shures, so warranty is the big thing (especially if you sell it back on here, people like stuff that still have warranty, and Shure allows for warranty to transfer).  

Quote: +1 The OP realized that the way a lot of people use the word 'fun' on head-fi is to describe a signature, and not as an adjective; yet started confusing himself into using it as an adjective in the question and throughout the post. This is about full-size, but when I had the...

Quote: Yes, buy.com is a big company, doesn't mean it's as reputable as say J&R, EarphoneSolutions, etc...and I'd say that because of the fact that they put that up knowing Westone won't honor the warranty because buy.com is not authorized.   From Westone's website...

Quote:   The a161 is supposed to come out in April or so, wait for the impressions and then see if A161 will go on sale; if it's a better big brother of A151, then it'll be worth it to wait. :)

Quote: Unless it's from amazon warehouse, you can't be guaranteed that it's genuine...another thing to consider is that Amazon's commission on electronics is almost 10%. If someone is selling MDT for say $250, they're losing about $25 to Amazon. It's kind of hard to imagine people buying...

Yes, they're fakes. Use this list from Monster to get genuine products - http://www.monstercable.com/counterfeit/authorized.asp

average_joe reviewed 13 custom iem cables, some of them fit the tf10. His thread is here - http://www.head-fi.org/t/564978/13-custom-iem-tf10-cables-reviewed-uber-muzik-v5f-added-1-03-2012

If it's only been 10 months, you still have 2 months left on your warranty, right? try to get two replacements?
