Just want to give an update: I've been using the VC1000 everyday for the past year or so and they are as great as the first day I got them.  I recommend the VC1000 to everyone and have not had one issue with build quality.   Huge, HUGE fan here.

  I am by no means an advanced IEM guru, but have listened to a decent amount of IEMs (mostly BAs) and hopefully can lend some light on the matter.  The GR07s are great headphones (practically the gold standard for Dynamic IEMs in comparison to any other IEM in a close price range).  They have...

Lol, it seems my buddy confessed to dropping the right bud into his coffee at work while he had them on.  Luckily for me they seem to be working fine now.  Talk about quality!

I have to say that I am truely surprised at the lack of overall interest in these IEMs by Head-Fi'ers.  They are simply fantastic.

That is a bit concerning... I have not experienced this at since I got my pair a few months ago and I use them everyday at work.  They seem pretty damn durable from a quality standpoint.  Can you guys tell if it is an issue where the wire connects to the earpiece (damn, not really sure what that...

These IEMs truly continue to astound me for the price.  Honestly, if you are on the fence about buying them, don't be.  Funny thing is, I almost like the sound of these straight from the source without the B&H attached.  For some reason it seems a bit airier to me (if that is such a thing).

Quote: I don't have exact measurements, but they isolate VERY well.

Well... this thread is like a desert, but I am loving my VC1000's.  I can't imagine anyone not liking the quality of sound, build quality, and accessories for $120.  They are simply wonderful.

Just curious what tips people are using out of the ones provided with the VC1000?

Seriously loving these VC1000's.  Officially my favorite IEM yet.  Only knock on them is the cable noise when wearing straight down with movement.

So far I have tried them with a MBP Early 2011, new iPad, and iPod Nano (old square one).  Not really a need at all for an amp, but it is noticeably fuller when I use my C&C BH    EDIT: I'm using Out 1, GC Low, LF off, SF off.

Received my pair of VC1000 this afternoon so time for some initial thoughts.   Previous IEM: S4, X10, R-50, M6, and now VC1000   They are very well rounded IEMs, they sound very nice to a large range of genres (including my favorite EDM).  While not bass heavy by any stretch, there is...

Quote: This may be a dumb question, but is the ER4 P/S and ER4 P the same thing?  Is this the IEM you are talking about > http://www.amazon.com/Etymotic-ER-4P-Portable-In-Ear-Earphones/dp/B0007WZLDC
