New RHA IEMs: The MA750i and MA600i
Thanks but I already ordered the MA750i. I'd rather have the build quality anyway though. It looks more than slightly better.- Gyrael

New RHA IEMs: The MA750i and MA600i
Well, I really can't afford the DN-1000 anyway, so I'm pretty much gonna order the MA750i unless I get a better suggestion. I really can't find anything better myself.- Gyrael

I see. Would that be sufficiently powered by an iPod? It's a third gen nano.- Gyrael

Not quite, unfortunately. Cheapest I see is $180 on ebay. What does it have over the MA750?- Gyrael

New RHA IEMs: The MA750i and MA600i
I made a thread yesterday in the recommendations section asking about IEMs, but didn't get much of a response. In case you can't read all that, I'm basically looking for a durable, very well built, well isolating and comfortable pair of IEMs that could suit my preference as a lover of how the...- Gyrael

IEM or other on-ear portables with good isolation for a lover of Sennheiser HD558s
A little bit of backstory: I've unfortunately never been able to own or try many pairs of headphones at all. However, many years ago I decided to purchase my first "proper" pair of headphones and got the old Sennheiser HD485s. They of course opened a new world to me and I enjoyed them a lot...- Gyrael

Quote: They're super portable. When they came I was actually surprised at how light and small they actually are. I use these everyday when I go to school. Bus rides, breaks, etc.- Gyrael

Still loving these. I've always liked my drums and bass to be punchy and well textured, and these really deliver that. I also still can't get over how aesthetically pleasing they are, and how sturdy and light they are.- Gyrael

Quote: I bought from Japan Import and it was a flawless service. I got the headphones in only 6 business days, even though the estimate was 10-20. In the box they included a nice thank you letter from who I'm assuming is the business runner, as well as a cool origami gift. The headphone...- Gyrael

I got my pair yesterday! I've only used them a bit so far, but my initial impressions are really good. I'm not well versed in terms of experience with headphones at all; as a college student, I don't have money to buy a lot of pairs, or really expensive ones for that matter. However...- Gyrael

Quote: Did you order them through one of stores on Amazon by any chance? That's what I did (the store is called Japan Import). I'm curious as to how long it'll actually take to get here. I noticed that the delivery estimate for Peru (where I currently am) was shorter than the one for...- Gyrael
