After buying the so called giant killer 5ba kz as10 everyone was going on about when they came out i was actually seriously disappointed when i heard them. Why would 8 equally cheap drivers sound any better? Learned from all the chifi crap that i'm more than happy with my lz a4

My budget can change depending on how much i need/want something. I am pretty happy with my zxr soundcard, but there is no way to properly amp straight out of it which is why i'm after a combo. Plan to spdif into dac>amp, that way i can switch between the outputs easily through the soundblaster...

Good shout. Just been reading up on the differences and looking at the specs of both. I now want both :(

Hello guys, seems like the perfect thread to ask. Expecting the Fostex t20rp mk3 any day now and have read they require a fair bit of drive to bring out the best. Mind is pretty set on the Magni/Modi 3 combo at the moment but wondering if there are better alternatives (between £200-300) i may...

I too get partial loss of sound after a couple hours. Yes it is to do with moisture, for a long time thought it was just my ears, have always had this with pretty much every earphone (using filters). Just had a quick look and the black tips i've been using do have filters in them.   For those...

Ahh ok mate, defo let us know if you ever get a chance. Had a cable waiting for ages, just scared to open it from wrong part and damage 'em.

Phwoa, they look amazing. Desperate to listen to the xb90 again, been so long.     Vapman, you still up for making that recable guide?

  To my ears both my zircon have more mid bass, sound cleaner, and reach way lower than the zs3. Maybe i'm not getting a proper seal with zs3, although to me it feels like i am as 1 side wants to constantly vacuum. As nice as they look, i've just given up trying to like them and the ed12.

  I have no doubt they will, they are insane value. Sounds absolutely amazing with the silicone tips and easily my favourite from the budget buys (so far...).

I rarely follow this thread so most likely a repost. For anyone with time wanting to replace the the headband, you can buy flat ones from ebay. No idea whether they are genuine or not, sit more flat/straight original, but that doesn't bother me now i can wear them for more than 20 mins. Put on...

Sounds really flat and getting about 10% sound vs the working side. From what i can hear through the working side though, lovely sound even before "burn in".   Only tried through my zxr so far, will buy a 3.5mm adaptor tomorrow so i can test it through another source.   Cheers guys

Just received mine from Japan. One side is pumping more way more volume then the other :(   Anyone else had this?

  I didn't bother to research anything before buying, just saw the price/buyers/location UK and assumed it so. I received them in 5 days and pretty sure they were sent over seas.    Seem pretty legit to me

  eglobalcentral-uk through ebay. Bargain for sure considering the others go for £100 more and that's before shipping/customs.

  My left side does cut out when i twist the cable at the connector with both cables.  Probably a little unfair to test it this way as it doesn't move once it's in your ears, but i had to be sure. So the problem may still be there for some 900s users. I am hoping over time with the fluid it...

Received mine just now and they are the unibody 900s version.   Prior to placing the order on them i had done no research, didn't even know or see mine were the s version, just remember how much i wanted them when they were released, saw the price tag of £150 and thought bargain. I have to...

Quote:   I wouldn't say a lot of bass. Well it depends on the amount of bass you are used to hearing. On full whack you probably won't even get to 30% of the bass your tours give. If you are not used to bass light phones (like me) it's going to take a while to appreciate the bass.   I...

Quote:   HAHAHA! omg, was drinking my tea and burst out laughing at this. I hate/love you!       Actually no, you shouldn't, no matter what they are or what any one around here says. After some proper burn in, If you feel they are dodgy send 'em back. Thanks for the laugh 

Quote:   aha! That's the thread i remember your name from!    Thanks for the link/reply, appreciate it.

Quote:   Hey, Kiteki. Have you done comparisons between the fxd80/fx500 yet? If you haven't already, care to give me a brief run down on bass and highs between the 2, please :)   Still waiting for fx700s at a good price to pop up, so till then... these might be a nice addition me...

uhm... ba200 anyone? Sure the bass is on the light side, but more fun than the b2 from what i've read and a tiny bit laid back. It's the closest thing i've heard... then again i haven't heard that many.   I'm hoping the 3/4ai from heir audio will be the one. "Fingers crossed*

Very nice
