Hi, I'm choosing between the three mentioned in the title, the SE535, Westone UM3X, or Westone 4R. They seem to be what I'm looking for, something that'll really bring out the detail in music, namely baroque pop/indie rock/classical/jazz/etc.    So, what do you think is best for me? I...

So, is this worth the upgrade from UM3X to these? Might buy these :) 

Hi, I've been doing my research and these seem to come out on top in a lot of reviews. Between these two, which should I go for?    Thanks. 

Hmm....so....

Hi, I just got my paycheck (yay!) and am on the market for some new IEMs, since my SA6s just aren't cutting it anymore. I listen to a lot of baroque pop (think Belle & Sebastian, Beach Boys, Beatles, etc.) and a fair amount of classical, along with hip-hop on occasion. So I'd prefer something...

Hello, I am wondering if Sleek Audio stops doing replacement cables free of charge after two years? Mine just gave up, and I bought my original ones in August '08. :( 

I am referring to the new 2009 edition cords. Those feel flimsy.

The cord feels flimsy in my opinion.

Any more of these? Mine already went out

I'm really sick of the SA6. They have great sound quality, but I've had this cord for only about two months and it has already gone out!

That's great to hear! If anyone is in need of a larger X5L batt, please PM me. I just pulled one from another X5L unit. It still holds a very good charge, and should last you a few months, if not years. I'm selling it for cheap, as I'd just like to get rid of it.

anyone?

Hello, I record a podcast at school just for fun mostly. I have the iAudio X5, which has fantastic SQ for recording, but I'd like something even better that records the voice in stereo and sounds a bit more professional, like records acoustic guitar and voice pretty well. Is there anything out...

I replaced one battery, and got rid of the bigger one. I haven't been using it as much as I'd like lately, but I think you can't go wrong with either one. I want to do another benchmark to make 100% sure that this is 1200 mah to see the timing, but thus far both have been doing pretty well...

Let me add on to this. As I was removing the treble tube with the provided tube from my 2008 Sleeks, the treble tube broke apart in the ear. Like literally just ruptured. I had to pull the pieces out and order some more treble tips. But after that it sounded really awful in the right ear, so I...

This is the larger battery on the left, smaller on the right. In the X5L, there are two extra wires coming out of the smaller battery that connect to the larger battery by a plug. Bare X5L, no batt or HD. Batt pics: Replacement battery. I wish I took more pics of it, but...

Surgery completed and a success! Battery charged. I just need to discharge it and see how long I get out of this one. I used an iPod Photo battery for this operation. Now I've got twin 80 gig iAudios . I'll post a few pictures of the surgery. Sorry I didn't do the full thing, but I have...

The iAudio X5L/X5 60 GB can be modded to accomodate 80 gigs. Fantastic player!

Actorlife-I actually didn't take any pictures of my previous mod sadly. I followed the directions of a user on iaudiophile.net. I'll be getting another this week and will be doing so with the iPod Photo battery so I'll be sure to take some then. I used the Palm Tungsten E2 1050 mah battery...

As long as you have a soldering iron, doesn't take too long. I did it in about two hours, mostly because I was very afraid that I would ruin something. Which I didn't .

Yes I am. I am willing to pay for shipping from anywhere though.

I've been asking everywhere and no one seems to respond. I am looking for the pre-2009 replacement cable, the one before the redesign. I wear these over the ear so microphonics aren't an issue, and I cycle with my SA6's so cable thickness is important to me. If anyone has a pre-2009 cable that...

How does that fit the X5 30GB? Doesn't it need the extra space of the X5L? The only thing, though, is that you'll need to remove the 2nd battery to put in an 80 gig HD.
