Etymotic er-4s/p SONY mdr-e282 SONY mdr-e252

I have narrow and sensitive ear canals. Despite trying every conceivable tip and a few different IEMs, I just can't use the deep-fitting ones. If I could, the ER-4S would have ended my journey here years ago. I found them to be perfectly flat, clear, detailed and natural sounding. Despite trying...

Does anyone know anything about these? there is literally nothing on on the net.   http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321368211155?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

I am sure you already know all about the Monster Cable Turbine Pro Copper IEM and what it comes with (if you don't, it is easy to find) so this comparison review is only a sound quality/presentation comparisons of the Copper vs. many other high-end IEMs. I tried to use a wide selection of genres...

RE0 multi-review skip to post #153     Just started listening to these about an hour ago.   I like them a lot so far, so they are worthy of a review, imho.     These are my initial impressions, posted in a different thread, copied here.          I just opened up my RE0...

I'm hearing good things about the audio quality of the C2, but I was wondering what these forums think of it?  I listen to primiarly folk and hard rock (mostly 70s-early 90s).  Most of the formats I'll be using is FLAC or other lossless codecs.  If paired with the Zeroes, would it be a great...

Which is better SQ, Comforts and Isolation wise. Do I require AMP to drive SB from my smartphone?

I am in the market for a new pair of IEMs. I listen mostly to Jazz (Apple lossless files) and will be using an iPhone 3GS as a source (and amp?). I have never owned IEMs, but I guess I am more on the analytical side (and if some coloration is necessary, I would opt for the warm+sweet) and plan...

Currently have Dr. Dre Beats. (They were a gift). I was wondering if it would be worth selling them, and buying the headphones mentioned in the title (HiFiMan RE-262). Also, if I could get enough money for the beats to purchase them. They are used, but have 0 signs of being used. Would also be...

So I bought a pair of RE252s off someone a few weeks ago, and everything up until now was fine.   The problem started when my left earpiece started to drop in volume. When I took it out, the music disappeared altogether. Within a few minutes, the music also disappeared from the right earpiece...

Haven't been following head-fi for a while now (used to be a constant lurker), I've noticed that head direct doesn't sell the RE-252's anymore. I thought it was a great iem when I owned one, loved the neutrality with a very slight peak at midrange. Anyone know where to get one? Or is there...

New User here,   I was wondering if they were compatible with each other like if the J3 can drive the full potential of the the Sunrise Xcited IEM. Thank you!    

My portable rig is constantly evolving.   Currently using; Ipod  classic > CLAS> headroom portable desk top> Edition 8's.   Just picked up a 4th gen Touch 64 gig to replace the classic.   So what HP works best with the touch un-amped. Do not want to carry around my portable rig when...

Hey all!   I'm on the verge of buying the ER4P/S. I listen to lots of classical, from strings to symphonies. And like many of us who listen to classical, also listen to lots of jazz and a little rock/alternative. The ER4P is great with classical, especially strings and quartets. I'm looking...

Disclaimer   This is my first review in head-fi. While I do own many IEMs, I'd say my observation capacity and analysis of sound signatures is certainly basic. Similar is the case with my 'audiophile vocabulary'. I've tried to use jargon, which I hope I have understood correctly - through...

    I've been investigating the possibility of dynamic driver reshelling and contacting the various custom IEM companies on this planet.   Very few are willing to do it due to the nature of the proceedure, it's more complicated and they say it can take 5 to 6 times longer than a balanced...

I've only had my GR07s for about 2 months. I don't abuse them, and already I've lost the right channel. I don't know how this happened, but I'm pretty pissed. What could have possibly caused this to happen so soon? Hopefully I can get them replaced.

Hello, I'm really looking for an upgrade from VSONIC GR07. If you've followed my eq curves, you'll know what I'm looking for signature wise, but here's the text: - more extension - lower subbass (<30 Hz), a lot more extreme high end (>=15kHz) - quite a bit more ~10kHz - somewhat less...

Hey, Head-Fi I'm currently in the market for a pair of Sennheiser HD 25-1 II's, but from all that I've read, I've heard that there are some microphonics on these things. I, being a financially restricted 14 year old, am unable to buy a copper cable because of my parents' unwillingness to let...

I have spent a few weeks with the RE252 and wanted to report my thoughts on them, and this thread looked like a good place to post about them. I have over 350-400 hours on them right now, and put over 200 hours through them before doing any serious listening. They sounded nice with some midrange...

      There is no doubt that VSonic is a big name in the portable audio industry - considerable OEM experience aside, the company has previously brought some very impressive earphones to the sub-$100 bracket under its own brand name. Therefore, my excitement at the announcement of a new...

Hi,   Anyone have thoughts on the IE8 vs EX1000? I've read reviews but I haven't found one that compared those two head to head. I'm currently looking for a pair of IE8 or EX1000 and I want to make sure I don't end up with fakes.   I've searched through the authorized dealers list on the...

I'm wondering if anyone does etymotic's super clear, detailed, sound better than etymotic. The instrument separation is uncanny, and it really gives me this sense that these instruments are spatially arranged around me and just creating this amazing sound experience. I have sounds whizzing...

http://store.hifiman.com/product_detail.php?p=75# ^^^^Those, which are $80 like the RE0's.   And   http://store.hifiman.com/product_detail.php?p=101 ^^^^Those which are $150 and it looks like they have yet to release, RE0 Sucssesor?   Any opinions?  

I have gone through two pairs of Sennheiser IE8's (As my dog has pulled them out of my ears while sleeping and chewed on them), and I don't really want to pay $200 for another pair of them, especially since their customer service is not very good. So I am looking to buy a new pair, which are...
