Currently I don't have any plans for purchases. The E3000's work, and are cheap enough to not worry about. As long as I don't use anything nicer than them I won't know what I am missing xD Obviously the above sentence is not ideal, but I am currently saving up for other things in life. I am...

Altogether, I have been quite happy with them. However there is one caveat to remember, the EPH100's were £100 headphones, these E3000's are £50 headphones. So the overall sound is similar, but certainly not the same (way way closer than the RE-400's that I initially had). The EPH-100's seal...

The E3000's arrived earlier today. Overall I am very happy with them. Especially considering they are half the price of the EPH100's. The fit is comfortable, to my ears the sound is good (nothing mind blowing, but perfectly pleasant to listen too). To compare to the EPH-100's. They are similar...

Decided to have a little look around at reviews of the Final E3000 headphones. The review from audiophileon goes as far as to suggest that they sound similar to the EPH100 headphones that I already like, so I think I might have to put a pair of them on order and see what they are like.

I can't say I have. The only HiFiman headphones I have tried are the RE400 waterline headphones. I also can't say I tried them through any high end audio dac or amp (laptop & SnapDragon 820 integrated), but equally I can't say they have caused me any issues in the past. I don't see the value in...

For a little background knowledge. First "proper" IEM's I had were Klipsch Image S4a2's, which died after about a year. Then I had Yamaha EPH100's. These are still going after about 3 years(?), however have reliability issues. I think they are gunked up a bit inside, and there isn't really any...

If you are worried about all the Chinese devices after what Lenovo did just wait until you find out what all the US and European device manufactures do :p   All Laptop brands install loads of bloatware on there cheap devices. At this point they have very little choice other than putting the...

I am currently doing an audio file type test   Music details: I am using a small snippet of audio due to fair use / copyright laws. The album is pay what you like so you can get the full album for free anyway. Song: Intrepid Journey Album: Redemption Artist: Aaron Static Get the...

Just for fun. Personally i much prefer ableton because i hate having loads of windows open at once cause i always find myself managing them. I do have quite a few vst's but they are all free ones, i dont tend to use them as much as i should do though. I really like having physical buttons and...

Well i guess i may as well post my set of gear. I dont have much in terms of headphones since i only have one pair of IEM's and a semi dead pair of klipsch Image s4a2's (Build quality was awful, sold by klipsch through amazon so not fake either). I occasionally dabble in making music in my spare...

If you wanted to have a bit of DIY fun you could also take inspiration from this guy: http://www.instructables.com/id/USB-Microphone/?ALLSTEPS   The zalman or mod mic may be a better solution for you but i thought i may as well share this in case you would enjoy it. If you want to run it...

You could buy a nice set of headphones without a microphone and then buy a mod mic to attach to them.This allows you to get whatever headphones you like with a sound that suits you. I would advise against nearly all gaming headsets if you want to listen to music etc. They are (nearly) all badly...

Went for the ATH-M40X.   There were lot of positive reviews. Features such as the removable cable (with 2 cables in the box) were able to make the extra cost worth it since cables can often be the first thing to wear out. The more simple design was also appreciated because i doubt my dad would...

While those suggestions are good and appreciated i doubt that i will be able to get them delivered in time because they would be delivered from abroad. It would also be nice for them to be produced by a brand with a useable warranty etc.   I have been looking around still. Came up with a...
