Hi All! I've been lurking here off and on for a few years and am well aware of how the forum in general view Bose products. Before you point & laugh, I got a pair of the original triport IEs (with the Bose billboard-sized plug, and before they had the b&w cable and inline volume) at the local...

Hi peeps. Been reading through the forums, and I need help on what to get. My Monster Turbine Coppers are broken, standard cable-wiggle-for-sound issue. I don't mind paying for good headphones, but I don't want to pay for too much either. Problem is, I live in the Philippines, so I don't have...

Whatsup guys. I let my impulsive side get the best of me today during a visit to Fry's. Here's what happened. I went, solely planning on looking, not purchasing. My original plan was to eventually purchase a pair of sub $100 iems for everyday listening, since I'm in the process of selling my...

If so which one has stronger deeper thumping bass?

Quick question for the sub-bass collective.......... anyone have or compared Sony MDR-XB40EX vs Atrio Pro IEM's ?   What the Sony's lacked in treble and soundstage they made up for in deep deep sub-bass. Are the Atrios brighter with treble ? I don't like bitey treble and actually preferred...

Greetings! A friend of mine recommended me to this site, and I hope i'm posting in the right section. Basically, i was hoping someone could recommend me to a pair of high quality in-ear headphones on a budget. I've used a pair of Sony MDR - XB40EX for about 2 years, and they were awesome. Only...

hello this is my 1st post and i apologize if i dont know the rules here II saw this website that is all dedicated to headphones and their quality I like listening to music and especially in a good headphones. Before i had      SONY Extra Bass Earbuds Model number: MDR-XB40EX  ...

Hey Guys,I'm looking for some new IEMs for my dad. He like bass head IEMs.  The last two pair he really liked was the Sony MDR-EX310, and the MDR-XB40EX. The XB40s were his absolute favorite. Durability is a + because he uses them for working out mostly. So i would love to hear what you guys...

Hi,   I'm looking to buy some new earphones as my current ones after a few years are now losing sound on the right ear due to the 3.5 jack being old and giving it crap connection.   My current earphones are the Sony MDR XB40EX which i've been very happy with due to their strong base...

Hey dudes me again, this time I need help with a pair of in ears. My faithful V moda Vibes broke on me after 2 long years. Unfortunately I don't have the reciept or I would have used the 50% coupon on a pair of vibrato's w/o blinking an eye. For now i'm using my Bass Freq's (never noticed but I...

Can anyone give me any comparison on these two? I can get the xb40's for $40 and the ex310's for $60. I've had the xb40's before and I liked them but they were just a little bit too bass heavy. I'm hoping that the ex310's can draw out the mids ad highs better as well as having a more controlled...

can anyone suggest a good pair of phones for under £40 they have to be either earbuds or in-ear, music types:   rock metal chill   they need to have a decent bass response..   all suggestions welcom!

Howdy guys! New to Head-Fi... Just need your advice on a rather difficult question>>>>   WHICH ONE TO BUY FROM THESE TWO: Sony MDR-XB40EX or the Sennheiser CX-300 II Precision   I love Hip-Hop, Rock, Reggage( love to hear those awesome - super low-frequency BASSes), but that dosen't...

I guess it really comes down to these three right now. I know I could throw in the Klipsch S4 Image, but these are $65 and under right now and would just like an opinion on these and which ones you guys would recommend. I do like bass, but I don't want it shattering my ears and drowning out...

Hi so i recently upgraded my older Sennheiser CX-500 IEM's to the Sony MDR-EX20EX which promised xtra bass so far in terms of bass quantity they are equal...although the bass quality is better on the Sony's. Now being that i have a Z5500 Logitech System in my room which has 505w- 1010w peak...

I am looking for some IEM's that are not dependent of the fit to sound good. I bought some Meleec M6's for sleeping but found they way to fit dependent and I was constantly fiddling with them to make the sound good. I'm looking to spend around $40 and I like deep, impactful bass with neutral mids. 

I just ordered one in black. Wonder how it compares to my MDR-EX600 or the current MDR-XB40ex. Anyone here tried these? http://www.sony-asia.com/product/mdr-xb41ex

Hello, I'm planning to buy a new earbud, for my U10 :). But I don't know which one should I pick. So please help me to choose the most suiable one. I think I can pay up to 50 bucks for it, but no more than that. For one thing, I got a basshead, so I like strong, deep rich bass.Thank you.

How do they compare??   Hippo VB-80 bucks   Sony XB40EX-50 bucks   V MODA Vibe ii-44 bucks   NuForce NE 7m-50 bucks   is there any more i should consider???   and should i wait for the new Sony XB41s??   i can't find any comparison between them around here....  

OK so i had these Sony XB40EX in ear head phones for about 6 months i took them back and got a Refund at radio shack in a gift card form. So i was wondering if anybody could recommend any good head phones or ear buds they may have purchased from radio shack. I Love bass and i thought my sonys'...

Just bought these the other day............sounded amazing on my home stereo.  Awesome separation, great bass.  I was really impressed.  But, then came the test.  I plugged these into my Clip+.  Boy do these headphones blow.  I have to turn the volume almost to max to hear these things with any...

Hi everybody.   A week ago I ordered the Monster Turbines when it was $58 on amazon. Hoping to finally get a pair of IEM that could satisfy my hunger for bass. After 4 days of testing and burn-in, I must say these failed miserably compared to the Playaz N1 with the foam tip. On a scale of...

Hi guys, I'm looking for a "good" $ 100 IEM with good bass that doesn't cover up the mids like my XB40 for my iPhone 4. Any ideas?   PS. I've tried the new BOSE in-ear, but it didn't impress me due to the fact that it didn't block out ANY sound at all which is really annoying because I...

I bought both of them and did a side by side comparison for an entire day.  Maybe its just a personal preference, but the Metros had great crisp mids and Highs, but were severely lacking in the bass department.  They were like the polar opposites of the Vmoda Bass Freq, which sounded warm and...
