It has a high noise floor, which drives me nuts, so that immediately rules it out for me. Then you have the fact that it can't drive iems, which I will most likely be purchasing when I go to college in a couple of years, plus I feel better ordering from an American company so if something goes...

Thanks for that, that is a but of a crazy idea, and it could be an option. I wish I could get the dark voice guys, but it's double my budget and that could go up to 250 easily if I start rolling tunes. That ones out, I was hoping maybe for a little dot 1+ but I just missed the drop on massdrop...

Looking for an amp around the hundred dollar mark for a set of beyerdynamic t90's that I am planning on ordering in the next few days. Before I decided on the t90 I wanted a magni 2, but now I'm worried it will be a bit too harsh with the t90. I just feel like there is a massive quality drop-off...

Hi guys, haven't really been on in some time, but now that my birthday and Christmas aren't my only sources of spending money, it's time for an upgrade. I currently own Sony mdr1r and really ma750, both of which I like. I only really got he Sonys because they were100 shipped and were about third...

Alright, i just got the soundblaster e5. I had the e1 previously because my computers mic and output was seriously broken, but  during the creative christmas sale i upgraded. my concern is that the volume nob changes the volume in windows and not on the amp. With the e1 i kept the windows sound...

Pre-ordered the e40s, and I want to get some comply tips for working out, does anyone know what type/size will fit the tube? Comply does not have them in their database yet, but I'm assuming someone has tried them already.

Sorry,, my understanding of tinnitus is very limited, but best of luck finding something!

Was thinking about that but was hoping for a little more bass, and detachable cables. Thanks for the recommendations

Got in contact with zmf, the standard comes with two cables, one 3.5mm one 1/4 inch which are 4 ft and 7 ft respectively. If you need anything logger, a 12' extension can be had for $10: http://www.amazon.com/Zeskit-12-Premium-Audio-Cable/dp/B00S1R8K06 I recommend the extension because the...

While I have not heard them in person, I've heard pretty good things about the zmf classics, which are a modded t50rp. They have very subdued eyes, which should hopefully help with the tinnitus. They are still very detailed in the mids and lows, but they should be even better than the...

Hi guys, I've got a pair of etymotic hf3s which are on the fritz(old hf5).I bought them on a whim when they were on sale and sadly many years later they are giving out. I was amazed at the level of detail they showed and they were what really got me into audiophile level gear. I've bought...

Etymotics are really incredible, I've found that if you use the bigger tips, they don't go as far in but you get the same level of isolation. Also, the Bose quiet comfort earbuds work really well. My brother has them, and I can stand next to him and shout and he will hardly hear me. If you want...

Good to know about the cable noise, and I thought about the gr07 but read a lot of more recent reviews saying they had major durability issues. That's why I'm trying to stay with brands that are upfront about warranty, and I couldn't find anything on vsonic. Any ideas on the west ones and...

I've decided to just go ahead and order the hifimans and one of the west ones or the shures, because I've never used an Iem of that style and would like to try one. Any reccomendations as to which of these I should get to compare to the hifimans?

Jabra has good stuff under 100. Nothing great compared to what half these guys on here use, but good enough.

I've been having trouble with getting recommendations anymore too, haven't heard any of those, but have heard good things about the Philip's line, such as the m1 and l1 and l2

An in ear would be ideal, and anything that goes over the head will be awful, so I'd recommend something like these Sony's(link below) which go behind your neck. Not sure on sound quality, but should be ok, and they are water resistant so you won't have any problems from sweat. Might I ask if...

I'm looking for a new iem for under 200 usd. I will be using them directly out of an iPhone or computer, so nothing that needs an amp. I previously had a pair of etymotic hf3s, which I like, but they broke recently. I like a more flat sound signature, but I found the etymotics a little too...

Etymotic has got some nice stuff, but not sure how loud they are. I know they dont leak at all. Good jack of all trades headphone. Not great bass, but very accurate.

Bump, and i listen to mostly alternative, rock, and pop music

The cable that came with my sony mdr 1r is great, but i dont know if you can get just the cable. No noise, and its very durable.

Im going to tell you what i just told someone else, look at aiaiai (promise im not promoting them) they have headphones with great bass but they also are fairly clear and accurate. Not too ugly either.

Check out aiaiai. They should have something like what you are looking for.

The x2 qwill give you a more fun sound, along with open back to help with gaming and whatnot, but it will still have the level of accuracy you are used to from your current 'phones.
