I'm selling my near brand new C5 if anyone's interested :-)

  X3 would sound better.

Got my X3 today, but everytime I shut it down and turn the power on again, it will not jump directly to the song that was playing before, it will jump to the main menu. How can I change this?

  Thanks mate ;)

Thanks s0lar. Now I feel confident to go ahead with my order for the F806. My actual player is a X1050.

A bit off topic, but I need to know: Could the Z1050 be at the same level of resolution of the F805? I'm a bit worried about the "lack" of bass in the F.

Guys, can you please tell me if the Z1050 is better than the X1050 sound quality wise?

Thanks a lot mate. I will pair it with a Sennheiser IE80. It's a very detailed IEM (SM3 level, but brighter), despite the strong bass. 

So the F805 has more detail in the highs, correct?

  So would you say the F805 has less bass than the X1050 or other Sony players like the A865, etc?

I don't know why sennheiser don't tell the truth and this is pretty irritating. The IE80 sounds more refined than the IE8i, with superior treble quality, better clarity and detail and no mid-bass hump. IE80 can be a detail monster with a silver cable, ISO-tape mod and the right tips.

  I had the Yamahas and now the IE80's. The difference is just night and day. IE80 is MUCH better. The treble is vastly superior as well as soundstage and they sound much more open and airy, which gives you a much more immersive experience. There's no comparison. It's like comparing a $100 IEM...

Thanks for the input, ericr. Appreciated.

I know this can sound stupid, comparing a full zize to an IEM, but could the M100 by any means beat the Sennheiser IE80's in detail retrieval?

  Emailed Monster US, Monster EU, they said they don't have them.

Hi everyone,   Whats the advantage (if any) of the SM64 over the SM3? Is it still dark and mid focused?   Thanks!

    Thanks Sylaw,   Well, I followed your suggestion to another member and contacted Monster but they no longer sell those tips :(   I could use some L's if you don't need them :)))

  Thanks :)

Hi. First post. Have been reading the forum for a long time.  Wanted to share with you my first impressions after 250 hours burn-in. Tape mod (does wonders to the mids and highs).   Bass is punchy and deep, really deep, great sub-bass, they put more weight on sub-bass than the IE8's, mids are...
