    Anyone knows the brand Esmooth

    I know this is old now (I had a busy year!) but I can advise that eSmooth make their own drivers - which they are (justifiably) quite proud of.   They seem to be learning and improving all the time, both with their drivers and with the housings.   They make headphones for several other...

    Hi Nikp!   ES-830BB - seriously. you like them more than DT880/HD600 cans?   Wow!   What hardware do you listen to?   The bass may tone down after some use.   The IEM's - well thats very subjective, so much depends on the shape/size of your ear canals and the fit of the...

    Neutral Headphones for U.S$150-200?

    Hi,   Been travelling and only saw this now. Happy to hear you like these Esmooth cans so much. I like these too. I see you have a pair of B and W's in your Avatar - have you heard them? How did you think they compared?   Tell me about the rest of your system, IE what hardware do you use...

    There are now 2 companies in the USA stocking some of eSmooth's products.   Is it ok to say here what the companies are called?   eSmooth have also come up with a new design which they have high hopes for, and they will send me one to test next week. It apparently has a new driver...

    Some further comments on the esmooth headphones - to add to Irascabible's comments on the ES 360's -   I generally do not find iem's to be comfortable, but these are. And the sound is really good for the price. I find myself using them more and more when flying around, simply because they...

    Hi,   Been a bit busy and away for a while, but the last release date we had was July I think.   You may have noticed it's now August. Any updates?    Anyone...   Eh?

    which one will you prefer?

    C, BUT: Metal buttons, please. And the line (same colour as metal buttons) just around the screen, not around FiiO!   : )   Nice-looking bit of kit though, good luck!

    ESMOOTH - Gorgeous headphones...

    Hi,   Esmooth just sent me a few more iem's and headphones to try out.   The first ones I tried were a pair of ES610 EB's (ebony - the ES610's I tried before and sent to Ishcabible, were 610 BB's, bamboo!).   Straight off they sound better, clearer, fuller bass. I think because ebony...

    The FiiO X3 Thread UPDATE: Project Back On! Read the First Post for Information.

    Like all of you, I anxiously await the release of the X3, THEN we really will have something to talk about. I trust that it will fulfill many of our expectations. I think basically the main reasons we were excited about it from the start were: - Made by FiiO, who we have come to like and and...

    Are hi-fi headphones overhyped by audiophiles?

    Very interesting thread, some excellent points made. I certainly don't agree with all of them, but many are very thought provoking, thanks!   This was particularly interesting:     Seriously? I wonder how that would sound?  Very different from anything I have ever seen or heard...

    The NEW Sansa Clip+

    Recently received a pair of hifiman RE2's - they sound okay with the Clip - but they don't have very loud bass anyway. And I have a pair of ESMOOTH iem's as well, and they seems to work okay - the bass isn't AS distorted as on my AKG k450's. So the Sansa seems to drive sensitive iem's better...

    Hi, that's a LOT of headphones! Have fun.   I am also a bit surprised that he gave you a discount, but then, you are ordering a lot of stuff - bulk discount?   I got his email address when he answered a message I had sent to Xylose, after Xylose had left the company.   He gave me...

    ESMOOTH - Gorgeous headphones...

    I think they are legit, just a bit of a language issue. I have hopes for them, and every time I listen to my 881's they sound better, hope I didn't judge them too harshly. I have never believed that burn-in can change bad headphones to good ones, but these have improved a LOT! They don't go very...
