Just to thrown in my 2 cents on this, if you're thinking of getting the A500, might as well the A900. Bluetin.com is selling it for $173, so it's only slightly over the $150 price point that you're aiming for. (I'm ordering them from Bluetin as well.) I recommend that you do a search on the...

Any sonic difference between a titanium casing and an aluminum casing?

Try bluetin.com: around $41 for E888, and try getting the gold ones because those are slightly better than the silver/chrome ones. Shipping is rather cheap too, so it'll definitely be less than $58 including shipping.

Oh wow, I almost missed this thread! Hm... can I come too? Hopefully it won't be too far for me. I might arrive late though since I got church in the morning. What time will it end on Dec. 14th?

Hi, all. I haven't been visiting this place as regularly as I used to, but now I'm back, and I'm glad I am. ^_^ I noticed that there were a few new "phones" released during my absence, and I'm very curious as to their sound qualities. I remembered seeing stuff about the Cresyn and CM5, but...

I e-mailed Xin for more info the other day, and apparently, it looks like I got the bad luck of getting an older V6.2A since I ordered it a few weeks before the V6.2C was made. I'm just wondering how much of a difference in sound quality there would be between the A and C version.

I received my MX500 recently. So far, I'm not impressed. Compared to my gold E888, the MX500 seem to be slightly muddier and detail is not as good since there were certain sounds that couldn't be heard easily on the MX500 that were clear on the E888. Right now, I'm just wondering if the clarity...

I have some lower quality MP3s too. Maybe EQ effects are better with the E2C. I'll give that a try if/when I get the E2C.

Cool! Thanks for your input, ironchef9000. I used to be big on equalizers, especially when listening on my computer speakers, but these days, I find that the increased bass or treble doesn't sound as good to my ears anymore, so now I'm considering getting an amp in case my MP3 player isn't...

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I'm still considering purchasing a pair of E2(C) after all this time. I've been preoccupied with other matters recently, so I didn't have a chance to make a decision. Now seems like a good time to purchase it for several reasons: 1. The Canadian dollar is...

I haven't tried the E2/E2c, but any respected pair of 'phones is better than the EX70/71 IMO. Edit: added IMO

Yes, someone got them recently and wrote some impressions. I forgot who, but do a search and you'll find the thread.

I recommend the Sony E888 gold version.
