The first pair I bought lasted me a year and a half before one channel cut out. I bought a second pair without hesitation.- Darknecron

Review by 'Darknecron' on item 'TTPOD T1-E High Definition Dual Dynamic Professional In-ear Earphone'
First off, I would like to say that anyone who gives this less than four stars either: 1. Received a fake pair 2. Is a troll / is lying 3. Has godawful taste in sound I'm not actually going to write a review at all... twister6 's review pretty much covers it. I do have to say...- Darknecron

I also grabbed a pair in that sale. $35 after my almost-expired Egg Points.- Darknecron

Indeed they are. The comparison I linked covers their portability (lack thereof).- Darknecron

If I may suggest, take a loot at the NVX XPT100. My comparison of the CAL! and XPT100.- Darknecron

The first pair was defective, but the second pair was indeed operating as intended. Their treble is very overpowering with velour pads (more than any other set of cans I own [ I don't have the Superlux set mentioned above]) since the velour reduces bass / midbass quantity. With the HTF600's...- Darknecron

The warmness of the HTF600 flattens out into neutrality when you use velour earpads. I am using the ones from my NXG HeadTrip NX-HTDJ...it was quite a squeeze to get them on though. I also discovered that the NX-HTDJ sounds infinitely better with the HTF600's pleather pads...the NXG...- Darknecron

Sigh...then either the retailer I ordered mine from is intentionally selling defective units, or NXG is re-branding Monoprice's factory rejects...or they just have godawful quality control.- Darknecron

Unless I received a SECOND defective pair, those NXG NX-HTDJ I mentioned earlier (rebrand of the Monoprice 108323) are VERY bright. Almost intolerably so (brightest cans i have ever heard). Yet again, the bass (which is quite light) is several decibels louder from the left cup than from the...- Darknecron

Yep, they are actually cheaper on amazon in the US ($15.70 after shipping). The first pair I got was defective...everything under 120hz came out of the left earpiece...very strange. Some kind of impedance mismatch / not enough winds on one of the drivers? No idea. I'll be pissed if the...- Darknecron
