I have been listening to these earphones for the past 2 or 3 days now and I must say that they have met my high expectations. I am very happy with these.

i started updating my library (the songs i bought cannot be changed). this pushes me to only listen to the 250-320 songs though. i didnt transfer any files from cd's though because i dont have any.

alright, thanks guys oh, i forgot to add: I have about 10,000 songs in my iTunes. Most of them come from iTunes before they started the whole iTunes Plus thing so most of my songs are 128kbps. This is really annoying, and I'm really not into downloading music illegally and all. So what should I...

alright thanks for the advice, i'm going to actually use the earphones without a line out and when i feel like i need one, i'll get it.

alright, i just got the earphones and i tested them out for an hour, they sound great. how long should i leave them playing so that their completely burned in though? They have been playing for about 3 hours.

I know that there are about a million of these, i'm sorry. Basically I have an iPod Classic 80gb and I'm getting Shure SE530's tomorrow. I want to buy a portable amp to get the full sound quality out of the earphones. I live in NYC so I'd rather go to a shop and buy one there. Does anyone know...

I'm getting these tomorrow, and i'm getting a portable amp as well to sort of get the full experience. can anyone recommend a...

alright cool, this is all very reassuring. so i think i'm going to get the shure se530's unless someone comes up with better earphones. I'm looking at prices around 500 bucks, maybe even 600. i'm really mainly looking to buy the best earphones I can get with half a thousand dollars. Otherwise...

Thanks for the quick answers! I'm pretty sure i'll get these this week end, if I have a bit of money, I'll buy a portable amp. I'm sorry I posted another Shure SE530 thread, I have noticed a lot of them in the past few minutes. Also, a few review sites have mentioned a "burn in" time with these...

Hey, I'm new here, my name's Ben, I'm not a pro at any of this, I just have a few questions. About a year ago I had the Shure E3c's and though they were great except for songs that had a lot of drums or bass. They broke so I bought the Bose QuietComfort 2's which I have heard a lot of good...
