I'm finally in the Modi>Vali>HD650 camp after receiving my Vali yesterday. I'm still obviously in burn in phase but so far I am pleased. Songs are somewhat hit or miss, a few sound absolutely incredible, amazing separation and clarity, and I've found that it's the lower mids that are really...

What do you call this? it's A) new B) fire and C) not an abomination    

  I agree with this but more like 70-80%. The microphonics really are unbelievably bad especially when walking, it's really bad in my left ear. The sound is great though and they are comfortable but if you're selling a $300+ iem you have to come up with something better than the cable on...

don't know if it's been posted yet and obviously its not as good as the $99 deal but the TF10s and Klipsch x10s are still relatively cheap on amazon, $137 for the X10s and $158 for the TF10s. This is cheaper than they normally are on there I think...  ...

these sound great but wow are they a poor fit in my ears, especially the right one. What was the consensus from the people talking about getting group remolds? Did they already agree to do it or what? what kind of price do you think you can get?

why is Monster so obsessed with miles davis?

you'd be surprised, if they have your impressions already and you've paid they start pretty much right away, at least that's the impression I got from how quickly they made mine

I don't have personal experience as I am waiting for mine to ship but I originally elected for the soft canals but then was talked into switching by people on this board. I think the main criticism is that they form a vacuum in your ear and the suction can get annoying. I'm not exactly sure what...

awesome, thank you so much!

is that Aussie dollars? AKA $188 in the U.S.? (not that it makes a huge difference)

Sorry I don't know where to ask this and didn't want to start a thread; is it possible to repair/replace a broken jack on a pair of UE700s? They were plugged into my laptop and someone stepped on them, snapping the jack off in the computer...How would i go about repairing this or is it just done?

how long have they been taking from when they get the impressions to when they're shipped lately (non-rush)?

cool, thanks for the advice

cool, I think I'm leaning that way just to see if there's an audible difference so that I can get out without losing too much $$. thanks for the advice

look here fella, I already said I don't know what the eff I'm doing 

because my iphone can't drive my quads?

i hear you, are there any comparably-priced metal-encased amps that compete with the PA2V2?

I read that airport mode solves this problem, is that true? I don't think I'll really have a huge problem with turning wifi/cell off since the majority of critical listening I'd be doing would be on a long flight or something like that and I think I'm unlikely to care too much about using an amp...

I'm looking for a portable amp to drive my 1964Qs preferably for under $100 to use with an iphone and ipod touch. I'm obviously new to this world but I've escalated up from a couple of universal iems (Shure SE215s to UE 700s) and now diving head-first into customs with ALAC conversion, an amp...

k cool, thanks. I think I may just spend that cash on some artwork or carbon fiber instead

Hi, I think I'm about to order the Quads and I had a couple questions about the optional add ons;   1) are soft canals worth it? what difference do they make in terms of sound/fit   2) what are ambient ports? what difference dot hey make   3) ditto with recessed sockets   these...
