Workout Headphone Review – Sennheiser/Adidas CX 680 Sports & PMX 680 Sports
Just wanted to share my thoughts, as I've been using the PMX 680 on my runs for about a week now. After a couple months with a half dozen IEMs, my search is over. While IEMs offer better isolation, the PMX 680 removes the bone transmission "thump thump" completely. It's a tradeoff I'm totally...- Color Theory

I'm still waiting for mine to show too. In the meantime, I ordered Sony Hybrid tips from Amazon.- Color Theory

Best IEM for running and hearing protection
Since the ER-4S keeps falling off my ears, today I tried using a twistie-tie to keep the cables together under my neck. Way too much microphonics. I give up running with them! Also, I managed to get the ER-6i to work using the large gel tips from the Klipsch Image S4. Maybe it has...- Color Theory

etymotic vs re0 vs triplefi
I tried calling first. After some phone tag, she had me email the PayPal receipt. This morning I got the shipping notice. I didn't realize they'd be coming from China. Guess I should expect them next... month? ;)- Color Theory

etymotic vs re0 vs triplefi
Still waiting for my RE0 to show up. In fact, it's been a few days and I never received any sort of confirmation except from PayPal! If it doesn't approximate the ER-4S on my runs, I guess I'll try the HF5.- Color Theory

Best IEM for running and hearing protection
Yesterday I found out that, at least for me, bone transmission with the ER-4S with the black foamies is INSANE! I had set a reasonable volume level at home, and found myself turning it up 4-5x. All I could hear was "thump, thump, thump" with every step. So I gave up and turned it off.- Color Theory

Audio Technica ATH-CK10
Alright, now the temptation is killing me. How does the isolation compare to the ER-4S? I actually listen at a pretty low volume, even when running. I confess I get startled a few times, in the rare event that someone passes me from behind. ;)- Color Theory

The Jeans-fi thread
Levi's 511 skinny (but not 510 SUPER skinny) are a perfect fit for me! I just bought four pairs, and that's all I'll wear until it gets hot enough to wear shorts again. I bought a couple waist sizes higher than normal, and they fit fine and don't cling to my skin like spandex.- Color Theory

Audio Technica ATH-CK10
I've read several pages of this thread and am seriously enticed. Since revisiting these forums after a five-year gap, I've already purchased a couple IEMs and am waiting for the RE0 to show up. Apologies if this has been addressed, but would it be crazy to run with these? I've been running with...- Color Theory

Where to go from ER4P? CK10 / DBA-02 / SM3 / UM3X ?
I'm guessing you've tried the adapter to "convert" the 4P into the 4S? Looking at the charts, it's not technically more bass, but it sounds SO much better!- Color Theory

You know, I had a good reason for staying away from this forum for awhile...
I'm back after a long hiatus as well. I haven't done as much damage to my wallet this time as last though (yet).- Color Theory

etymotic vs re0 vs triplefi
I wonder if the ER-6i would fit with the triple flange instead of the double. I've never gotten a seal out of them. I've got the ER-4S though, so obviously that's my preference. As for the bass on the 4P/S, I used the included black foamies today, and there was plenty of bass. I'm used to...- Color Theory

Best IEM's for $85-$90USD?
Yes, the Klipsch are bassy, which IMHO is a perfect fit for Dubstep! Burial sounds incredible on them IMHO.- Color Theory
