Is there a smaller size IEM that is on par with these? I don't really like the size of the 8320s as they were uncomfortable but they did sound very good!!

I bought a pair because they were on sale. That was good I thought, I am getting a good deal on a pair of headphones. But when I got them, they were awful.   They crackle. They don't block out much sound. They don't get loud at all. The left side was unbalanaced. Yes they are a bargain set...

OP, how did they break?   I usually have the wires go bad.   My favorite pair were some altec lansing headphones they no longer make. They lasted about 8 months and sounded great. However, most of my headphones die within 3 months.

I was hearing some crackling on one side and I opened them up, and saw that they were kinda messed up. I turned on my soldering iron, and was fixing it, but then... I desoldered off the copper plating on the headphone speaker!    I don't know how to fix this!   The wire does not adhere...

I hear it on all of them besides the S3. It's too bad, they're the only ones that support voodoo sound and I can hear crackling as soon as I do simple things like turning off the screen. Oh well, no more Samsung phones for me. :/ I don't think it's software as my htc phones didn't have this...

Do you notice sound when you are using the touchscreen? It's a slight crackle. Only Samsung phones have this and bad audio jacks, I'm not sure why. With the continuum, I have removed the grip sensors and now there is only sound artifacts coming from me using the touchscreen, not as much as the...

I get a lot of audio interference with my samsung phones. For instance, my Galaxy S made strange crackling sounds when the touchscreen was used, my Epic was notorious for having a bad connection or solder and making the same crackling sounds randomly, and now my Samsung Continuum does the same...

I'm wondering what your opinions are on iems. I had a pair of mono price iem but they weren't at all comfortable, although they were good at everything else. I like the brainwavs but they break too easily. I've been using billets by munito but they broke recently too. I remember I used a pair...

Does anyone know how to make my headphones seat correctly? I always get disconnects. I have no idea why Samsung decides to round their headphone jacks. So dumb!

Why not Monoprice 8320?

Why not just use the plugs on an extra pair and fill the tip with silicone or something?   But yes I have done it before.

I feel the title is misleading so people expect a good music player, and are confronted with a niche device that plays games and might play music well too. It may be clean, but so are cheaper devices, and it might be good, but its enormous and isn't marketed as a good player. No mention of...

My Galaxy S couldn't start anymore, so I have been using the iPhone 4. I did get a Samsung Continuum as well and put voodoo sound on it. I enjoy it more, it sounds much punchier, but there is something wrong with the volume buttons, even with voodoo (control) off. Hardware flaw, I'll have to get...

^ Agreed.   iPhone 4 has good sound quality as well.   If you skip the audio quality and get a nice phone... you can still get a Sansa Clip for cheap. I like to have it to save battery.

I assume mine are fake, one side has died and since they weren't from a company and from an individual, they're toast.   L SHAPED PLUGS ARE FAKES

I feel like sswam is just a shill. He doesn't post anywhere but here, and only sings the praise of the Open Pandora. No better definition. The sig also promotes the product, I wouldn't be surprised to know that its one of the open pandora developer's account. Could just be a diehard fanboy...

Where did you buy them from?

Quote: Be careful about ebay. So many fakes of everything there. Hope you get the real deal though..   Seems like branding headphones is what companies do a lot now. Dre was first, now Tiesto, although this doesn't seem like garbage. I like Tiesto's music. :)

Why is it 9GBP and 29USD on Amazon? Is that where everyone is getting them from? Is this right?   An update to the OP for where to get them would be awesome for people reading the thread!

I got a pair of S4.   Is an L shaped jack an instant indicator that it is fake? It doesn't sound all that great so I'm pretty sure they are if they can't beat monoprice IEM or my COD billet headset.

Quote: Cowon players are expensive for what they offer, but JetEffects is amazing!   Why not a Sansa Clip?   OP, I think you should ask yourself if you want more space or not. Bass will change with the headphones you have more than the source, and the music you play also affects it...

Quote: Is that with a tweak of a custom kernel with sound mods?   I have an iPhone 4 and an S3 and I don't really consider the S3 better.

Just wondering which you guys think has better sound...
