    Best Earphones for Electronica

    As an electronica enthusiast myself (i'm more into house/experimental right now - checkout James Holden, Hernan Cattaneo, sander klienberg), i was quite torn when it came down to choosing between SA6 and the Klipsch Image X10. I had both pairs at the same time, and quite frankly it was hard to...

    Need a little help in finding a new $200 IEM.

    i think based on the musical genres that you're into and your budget, i would suggest getting the SA6. You can't really go wrong at that price point, especially consider you'll be under factory warranty. FWIW, I personally ended up choosing Klipsch Image x10 for two reasons: 1) they had a...

    Does Anyone Listen to Complete CD's?

    I definitely listen to full cds, since transitions between songs are really important in electronic music. These dj sets are the main reasons i still buy cds and why deplore mp3's lack of gapless playback.

    Tiered Earphones/IEM Guide

    semi OT. i had the ety er6, which i loved despite the lack of bass. But im716 just sounds completely awful to me... i thought they're supposed to have similar sound signature. baffles me.

    Am I right in assuming BOSE is not a good brand for portable audio?

    I own a pair of the first gen Bose IEM. In general, i think Bose products are decent but over priced. And this is coming from someone who appreciates "style" points perhaps a bit more than the average head-fier. Just to come clean...i own a pair of B&O's A8. Despite its SQ short comings (esp the...

    Did anyone realize how cheap the Klipsch IMAGE is?

    Sleek Audio SA6 and electronic music

    Hey roxxor, did you mean that the Fiio amp helped with the bass or did it help tighten up the sound in general? I also ordered a Fiio amp too last week, so i'll see if that helps when it gets here. mdork, do you mind sharing your impression once you spend some time with the x10's?

    Sleek Audio SA6 and electronic music

    Just received my sleeks last wednesday and have been listening to it pretty extensively these past few days (base+/treble=). My overall impression of this IEM has been quite positive - the sound stage and clarity for acoustic and vocal pieces have been eye opening, while its supposedly weaker...

    Connecting ministereo jacks to Chaintech AV710 versus EMU 0404

    Hi all, I'm currently trying to upgrade my computer’s sound card from its integrated SoundMax sound card to something a little more respectable. Based on many of the posts I’ve read here, it seems like either the Chaintech AV710 or the EMU 0404 should be a great replacement candidate...
