Yeah, the Amazon pair had the intermittent connection problem.

  Some sort of rubbery glue was coming out of the seam of one on the first pair that I received, though I do think they were an open box/refurb sold as new by a secondary retailer on Amazon.  On the second set, ordered directly from Amazon, one of the IEMs would quit working entirely if the...

  I beg to differ.

So my second set has arrived.   The bass extension and clarity is better on this second set, I'm thinking the first set wasn't sealed properly.  Unfortunately, one of the IEMs in the new set quits producing sound if the plug moves at all.  I tried it with two different cables and was able to...

If it weren't for my bad luck I'd have no luck at all.   My P1s appear to be refurbs.  When I first opened them there was, what I can only assume to be, earwax around the nozzles.  There was also a scuff on one as well as a bit of sealant coming out from a seam.  I'd ordered them from Amazon...

I didn't know that there was a MD thread.  Also been looking at the Westone W30s as well.

Anybody...?  Bueller...?

So my favorite IEMs, the Miles Davis Tributes (not the Trumpets), are falling apart. What would be some good quality IEMs to replace them with? Looking at staying under $400. I listen to mostly 90's, EDM, and a mixture of other genres. I haven't shopped for audio gear in a long time, so I'm not...

Nobody's got real Miles Davis Tributes for $130, they're not real.  I know you want them to be real, but I think deep down, you know they're not real either.

Really, can't even acknowledge my post?

I was repositioning it on the couch beside me, when all of a sudden, the music stopped.  I checked my computer and then started looking the E7 over when I noticed the usb port had popped out of place and gotten pushed up inside the case somehow.  I bought this in November of 2010, which means...

I too purchased the SuperTip sampler pack for my Turbines and was somewhat disappointed.  My original intention was to purchase something that would stay in my ear while I was at the gym, and in this respect the foam tips work well and I think they're really durable as well, but that's all I can...

I voted for the M9, I think you'll be happy with it and the Operation Gratitude is a great deal.

Why would anyone suggest the M6 over the M9?

Quote: The IEMs they're talking about have different end-plates you can swap out that change the sound signature.

Bose is entirely overpriced for what it is, this goes for any product they make, not just headphones.

  Quote: Too bad there aren't any IEMs that are better than the Turbines for $80.  And yes, I purchased a Fiio E7 and it did tighten up the base, very happy with the combo.

Quote: This guy and the guy who thought clipping was normal made me chuckle a little.

Don't the foam SuperTips have a sort of hard inner tube so that the foam doesn't get too scrunched up?  I'm planning on getting foam tips soon and this was what swayed me towards the SuperTips instead of Comply tips.

Nice choice, I'm also looking forward to your review of them as well.

Has anybody gotten their "mystery" sets yet?

Out of curiosity, where did you buy them from?

Quote:   What part of the Fiio E7 is poor quality?  Have you ever used one or are you just guessing based off of the price?

Do a review on the fakes, I've always wondered what they sound like.

Yeah, everyone who's received the Amazon deal has gotten the older straight plug model with no strain relief.  But who knows, maybe you'll get lucky and get the newer version?
