    Philips SHE3580 IEM review--how can something sound so good for $10???

      No, I meant the SHE3590s. My new pair seems bass-light, especially the mid-bass, even after some burn in. I'm using the same tips I used on my old pair (last used about half a year ago), so I don't think it's a fit issue. I was wondering if this should have vents, because I don't see any, not...

    Philips SHE3580 IEM review--how can something sound so good for $10???

      Hold up. This thing has vent holes? I can't find any on mine. You think that's why it sounds bass-light?

    Philips SHE3580 IEM review--how can something sound so good for $10???

    So I just bought another pair of these. Is it just me, or are the new batches of SHE3590s a lot more bass-light than before? Sure the level of detail and sub-bass is there but the mid-bass seems to have been toned down. My pair is sibilant as well. A very different signature from my first pair...

    Muse - Live in Rome Olympic Stadium - IT ROCKS!

    Just got Muse's Live in Rome Olympic Stadium BluRay/CD combo. Currently loving it.    Looks like Muse finally quit brickwalling their music.. Take a look at this screenshot from one of the tracks from the music CD: Knights of Cydonia (my favorite).     Still loud, and some clipping here...

    WARNING: Fake IE8s! Comparison pictures included!!

      I once bought a fake IE8 to compare it with the real one, and for $30 I thought it sounded great.. Not enough soundstage to match the authentic IE8's, but it got the sound signature just right and just lacks a bit of the highs detailing the real IE8 had. Didn't look fake, it had that red...

    I'm sort of "encouraging" people to get SoundMAGIC quite a lot. They're a lot better than the crap people here buy.

    Just cover the vents of the IE80 with clear tape. :)

      You know what's even worse? Those generic-looking headphones you can buy out in the open with the Beats logo stuck on them. -.-"

      What a waste! I could have bought a Sony MDR-1R and with a lot of spare money for other gadgets with that much cash..

    Headphone Sightings 2

    A lot of headphones sighted all at the same time.. At least those I recognized. Nothing out of the ordinary though. White Beats Solo, Orange Coloud Pop, Purple Philips SHE3590, Red Beats Tour. Might have sighted a black Sony MDR-something as well. Big round cups with the Sony brand in small-ish...

    Quote: Of course I'll keep the IE80. It's barely 3 weeks old. But I'd love to demo the IE800, I do hope they have a properly-sourced demo unit.

    Sennheiser employee talked to me about my IE80 and advised me to try the IE800 on the way home. We talked for a bit and it was kinda weird. At least I finally talked to someone who actually knows stuff about audio.. Who knows, I might even get to demo future Senn stuff if I befriend him. Okay...
