    Philips SHE3580 IEM review--how can something sound so good for $10???

    Yesterday after reading this thread, i bought a set of the new iphone friendly £18 version of these buds, the SHE3595. They fit well, sound good and they have a mic and single button on the cable which works great with the iPhone4. I'm happy using the volume buttons on the side of the iphone...

    Guide to spray painting your Koss KSC75s black

    As much as i love my KSC75s, i've always hated the silver finish. They look a bit cheap and plasticy too.  So after much deliberation about paint markers, plastic dye, and spray paint, i decided to go for the latter. I was concerned about any paint getting inside into the mesh behind the...

    ***Earbud Guide - 22 Earbuds compared***

    I'm looking for an earphone (not canal-phone) with iphone control - specifically track start/stop/forward/back. Also if possible i prefer a rubberised earphone rather than a removable foam cover as i tend to lose these in my pocket. I basically want an iphone earbud with a better driver! Is...

    Songs that make your headphone WOOOOOW!!!

    Quote: I'd just like to say thanks for recommending this. I'd never heard of the Tord Gustavsen Trio before but i am now a big fan. I've now got all his records, but Being There is still my favourite, as you say the drums are stunning - it sounds like you're sitting on the drummers...

    Review by 'gregoire' on item 'On-the-ear Studio Monitor Headphones'

    Great cheaper version of the split headband variety. I have a few pairs of these and they have lasted very well. Slightly veiled sound, which works out perfect for DJing in clubs with large volume - bright cans at high volume for a few hours are painful on the ears and give me a headache, these...

    JK1 - I think there is 'just' enough bass. I'm still a huge fan of these headphones, and they have been getting 3-4 hours use a day at work. I find they sound noticeably better when used through my little PA2V2 amp - which gives the bass better definition and a little more punch. But its the...

    Review by 'gregoire' on item 'Creative Aurvana Live! Headphones'

    After reading reviews here and learning about the Denon drivers, i went for a pair of these for the office. They are surprisingly comfortable to wear, the soft pleather pads perfectly covering the ears, with the only discomfort issue being that your ears warm up a bit after a while. Great sound...

    Review by 'gregoire' on item 'Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic'

    Bought these from an apple reseller store so probably paid over the odds. Sound really clear at the top end, little bit lacking in bass punch, although this is improved with better fitting buds. I find a medium Sennheiser but/tip a perfect fit, but with these, the medium bud is a little small...

    @JK1 Yes the price in the UK is about £80. I replaced them with a set of DT770s for £133 - big improvement in comfort and sound. @sweetkorea Yeah glad its not just my head. I was really disappointed with the fit of these cans. $40 is a great deal though - 1/3 of what i paid !
