Exynos chipset, so if its the same thing as it is in the SGS2, the DAC for the Note should be one from Yamaha.

Gotcha, no leaving that Fiio E6 at home then =O

Speaker quality? As in headphone out? That's quite a surprise. Never kept up with the modding scene behind the O2x/G2x a lot (am a Sony Ericsson staff using the Droid RAZR in Singapore, lol), but wll definitely have to sniff around for news about it. Maybe like the camera, LG never...

For the record, the Nozomi is Dual Core. That report linked here is false, this here notes that the Nozomi runs on the MSM8660 platform, which is a dual core 1.5GHz chipset: http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/01/06/sony-ericsson-lt26i-nozomi-benchmarked-and-sized-up-against-xperia-arc-s/...

In Vancouver, BC, Canada - The Headphone Bar While in Singapore - Stereo Electronics and Jaben Headphones =) Covered pretty well in both countries pretty much =D

Actually, it happens 4 times a year in Singapore, with a lot of little roadshows happening every now and then. I'm actually considering to get this then and there IF I Iike how it sounds... but budget is a little tight at the moment.

http://vr-zone.com/articles/comex-show-2011-promotions-creative-technology/13369.html The Aurvana IE3 are going down to S$169 [US$139, tax included for you) for a coming Tech Fair down here in Singapore. I'm gonna assume that they're gonna have some demo units on display, so I'm gonna go...

Klipsch Custom 3 But since the cable died and its being repaired, the SM3 or MR2 Pro these days

Another GR07 sounds like a good idea IMO. Most of the other phones listed sound pretty different unless you fiddle a lot with tip choices.

S$199 = 199 Singapore Dollars. At present rates at this time I'm typing, that's US$162.20 inclusive of tax. Its gonna be hard, especially competing with the VSonic GR07 at that price point.

Creative's apparently releasing a new set of earphones - The Aurvana 3. The Aurvana 1 got off to a ho-hum start IMO, wasn't impressed by it, but the Aurvana 2 wasn't bad at all, kinda nice and sweet sounding from what I could remember.   Kinda curious on how this one's gonna sound like =)...

Given the Wii-U's size, it's unlikely that the R700 variant in it would be derivated from the HD4770, 4850 or 4870. Would itmagine that it uses a souped up version of the 4600 series, maybe running anywhere between 320-480 Stream Processors like the mainstream GPUs found inside laptops today...

I've managed to try out the V2s. The fit was way better on these ears than V1 was, the shelling was larger than that of the V1. The seal was by far and away better than the V1 as well as the housing sat on these ears perfectly and hhelped the outer layers of the biflange I use sit in place...

Just floored one of my friends with the SM3 today and made a good impression on 2 of the others. The one that got floored... well, might be coaxing him to get a pair of Vsonic GR07 as the SM3s are too steep in price for him =)

Mochan, try punching a hole on the paper filters being used, it should help reduce the shelling resonance at least by a little bit =) I'm gonna try venting them when given the chance though =D

Glad I ran into this thread! Thanks for the BioEQ settings. Had to change the Treshold from -24dB to either -3 or -6dB though, the clipping was exceptionally bad at -24dB =)

Looking forward to read it =3

There seem to be a variable build quality issue on these things. Mine were among the first to arrive, and other than the mods I've done, they're still in perfect condition o3o They don't open easy as well, mine seems very properly sealed.   They've been tugged at, slept on, slept with...

You might wanna have a look at the 1964 Custom In Ears? =)

Sound sig pref > technical capabilities, people seem to miss these quite a bit.   The FX67 are quite a fun pair last I remember =3 I may just head out and buy another pair now that I've read this XD

Wait? 250? I got the SRH840 for $150 from someone in Richmond BC o.o

The sound sig described here make it sound as if its a little bit like the MR2 pro. Got me curious now, wanna try this little guy out o.O

Folks would recommend the Sensorcomm biflanges for the SM3, and I'd really like to try this out m'self   Personally, I use the Futuresonics Atrio large sized biflanges on my SM3. The midrange is not so forward with them and there's a better sense of bass extension with the Atrios. Better...

UM3x IMO, especially for smaller ears.

Damn, feel like doing a trade in now D=   How do we go about the upgrade process? =O
