Bump

I need IEMS to replace my broken um1's (squashed). Comfort, isolation and durability are primary with sound coming next.  Budget is around 100 euros. i don't want something sticking out of my ears. Please give me some suggestions   Should i just give up back to new um1's or westone 1's?

kristianfredrik, Did you get them online in norway?

I want to know which one of these two IEM is better? i can pick the Cresyn C750E for 40$ and s4's for 80$. Currently i have a pair of UM1's, super.fi 3 and porta pro   I decided to drop out the Cresyn, but i want to know if s4 is worth upgrading from um1's. or should i just wait and pool my...

There must quite a few of these horses in the subway . maybe suggest me something else for that quality, i hate paying these premium prices in sweden I am coming from a pair of hd 485(gave them to someone), super.fi3 and westone 1

My um1s are in for repair. i want to get something cheap and good in the meantime, how would the porta pros do? i never tried one. are they as good as the numerous reviews suggest. I cannot beleive that i cannot go 2 weeks without some good audio

Yes it is still in warranty, i have one more year warranty left. should i send it back in original casing or in a box with bubble wrap?

I contacted them and they want me to send it to them. i have to ship it from sweden which is a costly affair with postage and taxes. What do u think is the probable costs of a repair? the cable is getting severed near right channel, i applied some tape on it, not sure how much time it would...

Hi, Is it possible to change the cable for Um1's? my cable is damaged. what are my options? I am in Sweden. Thanks in advance

Thanks for the answers. it gave me a perspective how loud, i should be listening i hear a tiny squeak at 1-2. does this indicate hearing loss? the um1's really comes alive at 7-8(Flat EQ). i usually increase it over 15-20 to compensate for the noise when i am on subway or on bus. is there a...

Hi everyone, wondering what should be the safe volume level with um1 and D2. i listen at 12 in quiet place and 20-25 outside, is that safe? Thanks in advance, Martin

anyone confirm this? i have to order soon.

sorry double post

Hi, I followed this forum and brought a UE super.fi 3 couple of months ago and later upgraded to a westone um1 . so far my experience with both of them is a heaven. all was well until my um1s get dirty too often . i live in a very sweaty atmosphere and the amount of maintenance these...

Thank you very much for the suggestions. any more par 100$ suggestions?

Count me in

Hi, I am thinking of buying a small portable amp to carry with my D2. i am very new to this concept of headphone amps. my present gear is super.fi 3, Senn hd 485 and cowon d2. i am saving up to buy a HD 650. Please suggest any portable amps below 100$. what else do i need like batteries...

ClieOS, Thanks for the information. it is very helpful , i am not getting zapped while i wear the IEMS, only when i touch some one do i find the sparks flying

Hi, my body is accumulating static charge after roaming around my house. I have a pair of Super.fi 3 and senn HD485. will they get effected if i touch them with the static charge. Thanks, Martin

can i use the Shure olives directly onto the earphones. it is taking a lot of time for adding the tips(that came along in the package) to the Super.fi 3. is this common? or maybe i did not get good tips
