Has anyone heard of fake Senheiser ie800`s?, they`re available from multiple sellers here for less than a third of their already reduced price, http://www.aliexpress.com/item/DHL-EMS-Freeshipping-High-Quality-In-Ear-Earphone-IE800-NOise-Cancelling-Earphone/1620913932.html, what`s going on, they...

Hi all.   I was wondering what technical differences one could expect between 8mm and 10mm drivers in IEMs. Is one of these consistently 'better'?    My intuition tells me that 10mm should deliver better bass performance and a more impactful sound. Could anyone shed some light on this...

Sorry i know theres a million of these threads on here, but sometimes you just need a specific answer. I need to find a pair of earbuds to use for when im skiing, running or just going about town. I listen to a lot of bass heavy music like drum and bass, uk bass, and hip hop, so deep powerful...

Hello everybody, this is a great forum about IEMs!!    Im new in the IEMs world, and I want to make my first Custom IEM with Radians Custom Earplugs mold, the eight options are this (according to my budget ) :   (sorry for the large list)   1-Shure E2C.   2-Shure SE210.  ...

I searched and couldn't find anything so please forgive if this is a redundant topic. I have a few pairs of IEM's that the L/R markings are very hard to see, especially in a darker room. Was wondering if others have this issue and what some clever, inventive ways to mark them and make them more...

In layman's terms as much as possible? :) I read the relevant section of the Wikipedia article on headphones and while I understand most of it, I don't really get the practical applications in terms of the actual listening experience or sound quality or whatever. Are they better/worse/it...

Treble>>>Bass to me all day, I love the clear sound rather than the bumping bass, still bass is needed as long as its clear. What is the cleanest sounding high quality IEM you can think of? In short I hate muddiness, hate hate hate it!

Hi there folks. I've got a pretty hefty IEM shopping list and I was hoping that you could help me trim it a bit. (I started reading reviews, impressions, etc. around 4 months in advance and I wasn't able to decide yet T.T) Prime source is a 5th Gen iPod Touch.   From Japan Zero Audio ZH-BX700...

Here's my initial review and my first one on Head-Fi. It needs to be read over some more, Accessories have to be added and I'll add those as soon as I get a chance and make some corrections down the road. Take my review with a grain of sale as I'm not an audiophile, not in the music industry...

Wondering what IEMs people here use when they're walking around, commuting or travelling. For those uses, isolation and fit, as well as durability and/or low cost might take precedence over sound quality up to a point.    Most recently I've been using the TDK IE800 out and about. Its not...

TDK IE800 Quick Review       Brief:  The cassette tape people do a dual dynamic IEM.   Price:  £57 at present but RRP £99   Specification:  Plug Type: 3.5mm gold-plated, Drive: 8mm + 5.8mm, Driver Type: Dual Dynamic, Frequency Response: 20Hz to 20,000 Hz, Sensitivity: 116bD / V...

As a life long afficionado of heavy metal and hard rock, I've listened to heavy music though literally hundreds of headphones and IEM's in my lifetime. Most recently I've settled in on JVC HA-FXT90's and Philips SHE3580's as my go to heavy metal IEM's. I still haven't received my recently...

http://www.mp4nation.net/headphones/headphones-earphones/brainwavz/brainwavz-r3-dual-dynamic-iem-earphones I wonder how they perform. At the pre-order price I think it is worth a try, full price? Hmmm not so sure. Prices are going down while sound quality gets better and better.

I am interested in getting VC1000 or GR01 (or something similar) and would like some feedback on these models. I own RE400, have auditioned IE800 for a long period, which i like very much. I have also auditioned BA200. Great smooth sound. [Preferred sound signature: neutral, detailed, good...

Between those two IEM's, which do you guys believe better compliments the GR07 MK2 better? I already asked ClieOS this very same question and he chose the IE800, would you guys agree. I am just looking for a second opinion as I am very picky lol.

I currently have the SE846 in my possession and recently have began wondering whether the IE800s might be a better fit for me. I listen mostly to soft-rock, pop, rap, hip-hop and J-pop.    I've heard that the IE800s have a soundstage that blows all other IEMs out of the water, but does it...

Hello everyone,   I have some ESW9 headphones and I really like the sound signature of them. I just love them. However, mine were stolen a few weeks ago and I want to get something similar but more portable.   Does anyone know about a pair of IEMs/Earbuds that are comparable to the sound...

I miss my sm3 iems but I don't miss their veil. They were perfect in every way except that. So I sold them :-( I have a few questions: 1. Are there any amps or eq settings that get rid of the veil of the sm3 without taking anything away and without adding sibilance? 2. Is the sm64 the same sq...

It has sparkling shiny highs and decent deep bass. Whole quality at the same level as mg7. But vocal/midrange sounds a little warmer and so much smoother, no harshness at all. Also comfort&isolation are super good. I ve fallen for it.

Dear Head-Fellows   These are my impressions from the brief auditions I've done at the Headzones stall from NAS'12 UK which took place over the last weekend on the 22nd & 23rd of September. Please do take my comments with a grain of salt as always as these are solely my opinions thus the...

  Introduction TDK Life on Record is a huge, very well known data storage, recordable media and audio manufacturer. In the 90s, almost every cassette and VHS Tape was manufactured by them. In the 2000s, when the DVD had begun to be the most used media, TDK started to slowly disappear from...

First off, let me start by saying that I didn't want to pick these up at first, even after hearing all sorts of good things about them on this site. However, as usual, I gave in and bought a pair. Given that TDK is relatively new to the headphone world, what they've accomplished here is pretty...

Hello! I'm currently Owning the Tdk ie800 and i like them, but i think the Bass is really on the low side... Are there any Other in ears who Sounds like the Tdk, but have more Bass? Thanks! Edit: im thinking of getting the ie80 instead... But i dont know if they can handle Bands Like la...
