    New Onkyo ES-FC300 / HF300?

    Let vengeance be yours!  And +1 on documenting it for us all.  Might need to do that myself one day (so far so good, touch wood).

    Attempting a DIY CIEM Project!! Need Help!!

    Likely you will want a very small tip do deal with those very small drivers.  You could likely "get away" with almost any one with changeable tips, but better ones are, well, better... Subscribed and waiting with eager anticipation and an eventual desire to reshell/fix my old UM2s.   Luck to you!

    New Onkyo ES-FC300 / HF300?

    Just got mine - too soon for impressions, but I can add one silly little point.  When eating with these on, big bites break the seal on the cups (bass dropouts) while my jaw flexes.  Super temporary, and nothing like the annoyance of potato chips with IEMs, but just an observation.   OK, back...

    Koss Pro DJ 100 - The Budget King

    Quick question to TBE folk - is the TB sig engraved or just painted on?  Like the detachable cable but also like the understated 100 look (and the 200 is more expensive than both).

    Koss Pro DJ 100 - The Budget King

    Hey all, I have Shure 840s and enjoy them, but lately I have been needing to listen to them for work for hours at a time. My primary issue with them is (well, weight of course, and) that my ears get so very hot wearing them. So the question: will the KossDJxxx be any better? I also have to...

    what do I do to these holes?

    Depending on what they are made of, simple hot glue will seal them but (if you don't fill the hole with it) should come off.  Use low temp stuff, as it sticks less well.  You could also look into the equivalent of Instamorph, or even Sugru, though the latter two may be more difficult to remove...

    Amp for Blackberry 8530 = lipstick on a pig?

    Bump - I have been reading luke warm reviews of the other phones as DAPs, but still have not found anyone who has tried amping a blackberry or other sucky source.   Nobody tried?

    Amp for Blackberry 8530 = lipstick on a pig?

    Hi all,   So I have the Curve above, a beloved pair of UM2s, and a now broken iPod Touch.  The Curve, well, sucks SQ wise.  It pops, has a very high noise floor, and sounds generally yukky and compressed. Highs are harsh, lows are somewhere I have not yet found, etc, etc. It is, however...

    Equalizer software for Mac that works with a DAC?

    Stubled on this and know it is way dead, but in the event that you don't have a good solution, you could use AirFoil.  It (please pardon the non-tech) inserts itself between your chosen application and the soundcard (USB DACs included) allowing you to affect eq, balance (an issue for me with...

    Shure 840 Frankstein Headband Mod - Mission Complete!

    Cheater,   Questions!   So your mod thread never shows the completed mod - will you finish the how-to?   You talked about it being fine with just the pleather wrap on the metal, so what is the padding shown on this tread?  The VE foam you talked about? You mention a senn 580 headband -...
