I can confirm - no gapless playback :(   However - one observation I think I made is that the phone pairs wonderfully with my BA IEM's (Ultimate Ears) but doesn't play nice with my dynamic ones... 

Quote: Thanks for the heads-up! I ordered a pair and to compare them to the Brookstone Clear Dual Drive I already have. Also - can't beat Costco's return policy :)

Factory Refurbished HD800 - $1,100 @ Crutchfield - add to cart to see the price. Includes 2 years warranty   http://www.crutchfield.com/p_143HD800R/Sennheiser-HD-800-Factory-Reburbished.html  

Amazon probably got the E6 and E9 pricing mixed. I would not order this at this price, since it Micca which is a small business we need to support and this might hurt them financially.

I looked up GSI's address in Brooklyn (1600 63rd St Brooklyn, NY 11204) it is the same address as other audio companies including Pyle. Pyle seems to have a relationship with Fiio, as they have already re-branded some of their products.

  I posted this info on another thread with the same question:   The Fiio E10 is available on Amazon. $70 shipped - and fulfilled by Amazon. I was waiting for this to happen as well, since I would rather deal with Amazon shipping and return policy than anyone else's.   It said that...

The Fiio E10 is available on Amazon. $70 shipped - and fulfilled by Amazon. I was waiting for this to happen as well, since I would rather deal with Amazon shipping and return policy than anyone else's.   It said that the item is made and sold by GSI. I did a bit of research and found out...

Quote: Also when browsing Frys.com I came across the JVC HA-750 for $30.  

Here is my short answer in regards to the Behringer UCA202 - Don't waste your time/money.   My unit produced a high pitch faint noise in the background all the time (recording and playback) and it does not have a very good HP amp section. I am assuming the Fiio products will be the better...

You could try the Brookstone/Clear Dual Drive Earbuds. The price recently went up to $70, but there is a 25% discount code (last day is today) available - 25SEPT which knocks the price down to around $65 + tax (shipping is a steep $12).   There are some reviews here and here. 

Creative ep630, Creative HQ1600 and EMU 0404 both USB and PCI :)

Brookstone also carries Beyerdynamic products - the coupon code reduces the price on some of the high end headphones to the lowest prices on line. For example - the t50p are $225 after coupon - but before shipping and tax (free shipping code cannot be combined).   Quote:  

FWIW Logitech Ultimate Ears 200vi (phone mic and controls) for $20 with coupon code logi_ue200vi_82011 Link

ClieOS - Thanks for the quick impressions! I am too looking forward to your detailed review. I did not hear any of the Radius DDM's, but I am very pleased with the BsCDD's. I have not heard a more pleasing IEM with iPhone controls at the $60 price point.   BTW - I am assuming when you...

Quote: I don't have direct experience with the Shure iPhone cable, but every iPhone earphones I tried (with mic and controls) work with every other player I have - including the Sansa clip.  

^+1 the 840 pads are the way to go. I got mine from sweetwater.com - really good price and fast, free shipping.    

I do not recommend buying them from eBay. You might save some money, but even if they are real (which I highly doubt due to country of origin), you will not have any warranty on them. Look for a pair from an authorized dealer and protect yourself in the long run.   Also - if this is your...

For the record, I have not heard the Nixons, but if you like the way they look, take a look into the AIAIAI tracks - around $60 and sound pretty darn good for being "fashion" headphones.

Nice review. Looking forward to reading your impression as to how these sound after burn-in, as these were on my radar for a while.

I got my pair of Brookstone Clear Dual Drive today, and while I am burning them in / casually listening, I had a quick question. I read earlier in this thread that Radius is a Japanese audio company. My pair of Brookstone say - "Made in China" on the box. Does Radius source their products from...

Curiosity killed my wallet. Ordered a pair as well. Worse case I'll take them back or sell in the FS forum.

ClieOS - Thanks for chiming in. I was not aware of the driver flex issue since the pair I have did not display any flex symptoms. I did however have driver flex issues with the Meelec M6 - had to have a pair replaced twice. As always, I am looking forward to reading your review of both. I have...
