First I apologise if this is too overtly commercial. Inspired solely by this thread (hat tip to Dsnuts), I became (as far as I know) the only official reseller of Monoprice 8320/9927 etc type earphones outside the US and I shifted over 1800 pairs of them on eBay and Amazon in 2012 - 2015. The...

Quote: Pink (9960) and White (9963) are rubberised, not cloth.

Quote:   I have made such a request, back in November 2012, but still no reply. Any suggestions?   Mark

Update mostly for non US members (because you can get better prices in the US)...   We are now shipping all colours of Monoprice 8320 type earphones with Comply Active S-400 tips included as standard having become a Comply OEM (yippee!).   You can find the listings on eBay and Amazon...

Quote: The stock tips are actually not that bad. They are designed specifically for the headphones, with larger openings for the nozzles. I don't think monoprice ever intended for these things to be inserted deeply. Rather they were designed to sit right outside the ear canal. In that case...

Quote:   As far as I recall, this is the first vote in favour of the stock tips!   Mark

Quote: I don't know about the cable, though it appears so from the pictures. The silver model is outdated, it is a chrome finish rather than rubberized and quite uncomfortable. Unsure about the packaging, if that what you are talking about. None of them have a carrying case. The silver also...

I do not recall the source of the quote but it goes something like this...   "I wear $5 shoes with a $10 shoe shine"   .. and I bet there are other versions of the same metaphor.

Well, yes, but I want to follow the forum rules about people in the trade so I do not really know how much I can say!   I did notify Head-Fi that I was a reseller of earphones some weeks ago but I never got a reply.   Any more experienced Head-Fi ers got any guidance to offer?

The box is a big problem for international resellers.   Even for a large order (several hundred units) shipping costs from the USA are 127% higher. Shipping out to customers is higher. Shipping to UK customers is 200% higher, Europe 120% higher.   Smaller resellers often import in...

I should have been clearer when I said "they will start to ship the 9927 within 10 days"   Monoprice have started to ship but non USA resellers may not yet have stock.

<goo.gl/Jyu4W> - I think they will start to ship the 9927 within 10 days.

I used to have £30 Sennheiser earphones and now I have 8320s. As an unsophisticated user they seem very similar to each other though the Monoprice are FAR louder.   In the end, I guess it just comes down to features/price/value.   Despite the problems I have with putting ordinary foam...
