    UE-5c vs Superfi 5Pro

    Has anyone owned both? Can you describe the differences in sound. Not comfort. I have a problem with the comfort of my customs and was wondering if I will be really disappointed coming from them to the Superfis. I use an iPod. Average bitrate is 256. Mostly hip-hop, rock, motown, soul. I need...

    Nano flash ?

    Anyone know how many times the Nano can be updated/synced? I read somewhere that flash memory rewrites are finite.

    iPod-->iAudio X5

    Has anyone here gone from an iPod to an X5? I'm definately thinking about it. I don't want to be a traitor, but the X5 is just screaming my name. I think it should just be one or the other. I don't wanna own two DAPs. That's silly.

    Foamies on Custom UE-5c??

    After talking to someone at UE and explaining that I can't get a proper fit they suggested remaking the UE-5c with thin stems that will accept foamies. Should I accept that offer and have to put foam tips on my custom molded phone?

    What are high frequencies?

    I am returning my UE-5c because of fit issues and am gonna get either super.fi 5 Pros or UM2s. Everyone is saying they have terrible highs or seriously rolled off treble. What are some instruments that produce these frequencies besides cymbals. What music genres consist of such frequencies. I am...

    UE-5c have to go back again

    I give up. I thought they fit great but after wearing them for a few days they really hurt. I had them build up the stems really thick to get a tight seal. At first it feels and sounds wonderful. But after about an hour they kill my ears. I'm so disappointed. But I did my part. I sent them off...

    UE-5c came today

    After three refits they finally fit great!! I added dental wax to the last set and built them up until they sealed perfectly. Then I mailed them in and they made a pair of near-perfect phones. I love 'em! I'm officially a member of TEAM UE-5c! (((applause)))

    UE-5c refit

    UE-5c arrived

    I got my UE-5cs today and they sound good, but they won't stay in. If I smile the seal breaks and they suck. I can open my mouth without any trouble with the seal. If I smile at all or move any muscles in my face they practically fall out. They have to go back I guess. Damn. Very disappointed. I...

    iTunes vs Eupod

    Is there a difference in the two apps in terms of Volume boost and mp3gain/normalizing? I can't find it anywhere. Why do so many people with iPods use eupod when iTunes does the same thing? Thanks.

    Ue-5c need an amp from iPod?

    I'm waiting on my UE-5cs to get here and like the idea of a portable amp. Would the UE-5c benefit from an amp or would the iPod do just fine? I seem to just wanna buy some toys. Damn you Head-Fi!! I've read all the reviews I could find on the UE-5c. (lots of em) They don't seem to mention...

I just got an automated Fed Ex e-mail stating that a package has been sent via overnight shipping from the custom division at Ultimate Ears. Today is only Friday. They couldn't have made them in a day and a half, could they? I...

    ue-5c or super.fis?

    The news of the upcoming super.fis has really made my decision to get the ue-5c very difficult. I don't mind spending the money on the customs, but I want to be able to tell a difference b/w the two. Do you think that the 5c will outperform the super.fi 5Pro? Experienced advice appreciated...

    UE Super.fi 5 vs 5EB

    I am just wondering why the EB with the better bass is cheaper than the Pro? What makes the Pro cost more? I have the E3c and think they are great but I want something better. So I am gonna get the one of the new UE pairs. Either that or the E4c. Thanks.

    E3c and UE5c

    First of all, I am completely new to quality headphones. I have been reading this forum along with a couple others and debated between the e3c and the ue5c. I have never used anything except stock headphones and I took the advice of some experienced members like Lindrone and a couple others...
