I listened to a bit of Emulsion... I prefer something with beats. Thx anyway.

I'm not talking about soudtracks... I'm talking about goa trance (or other) music that somehow reminds you of films, either with voice samples or actual music. So far I know of these acts that sometimes have this: Astral Projection Infected Mushroom Juno Reactor I really love this kind...

I don't care what anybody says, I like the sony 888 20x more than I do the 4s. The sony is streamlined, while the Etys lack character... they(the 4s) are just even accross the frequency sound range. The sony is kind of compactified to the mid-range, while the Etys sound way too wide. I can...

I think I've got earwax build up in one of my ears by using the etymotic white eartips that you push into your ear canal. I can hardly hear anything and I'm waiting to go to the doctors. Has anyone had this problem, and how have you treated it?

Do you have this problem: hooking it up to your discman's remote (if you have a remote like the D-Ej01 does) after a short while you have to replace the green filter because it busts? It's happened twice on mine, and I'm scared to use the remote again with the etymotic...

All this talk makes me want to buy it again so I can hear the difference... but I would not have sent it back if I had been impressed. Yes the sound seemed dazzlier, but not *MUCH* dazzlier, and I really couldn't be bothered carrying the thing, and renewing 4 D cell batteries every couple of...

I'm not making this up. All the subtlties I heard with the amp were there through the headphone jack. I was using the sony D-EJ01. On some instances I even prefered the headphone jack, I don't know why, maybe because less complications means better sound. Or maybe it's because the PCDP is...

Of-course I used the line out. As for the amp I sent it back for a refund. On the one hand I'm dissapointed, and on the other I'm glad, because I know I have the best sound available (or near to) without wasting the money on an amp, and having to carry it around. I'm relieved and happy. The only...

Nothing your Discman can't do. That's my impression after hearing the Cosmic- reference module with the etymotic 4s. It sounded exactly like my discman with the volume turned up way high. Even if there's a tiny improvement it's not worth carrying the huge heavy thing for. What's the deal?

Is it exactly like the 4s or is the 4s more 4s? I like using the adapter, it's eliminated the loud hiss from my D-EJ01 discman!

I read in a catalogue that DAT recording has better than cd quality sound. If you're recording off a CD, does DAT sound better than CD - CD recording?

I loved my 888. I loved the 'thickness' of the mid-range the most. The treble sounded really smooth to me. The base was nice and tight and non-intrusive. It's possible that the Etymotic is too good... it doesn't satisfy since every sound is thinner than the 888 apart from the base (4P). I don't...

Yeah, I have considered the sony trash in comparison, but with some songs the Etymotic is too hard on the bang on the drum (don't know what it's called) and is uncomfortable to listen to. With the sony the 'bang' is crisp rathar than hard and feels better, also the bass is'nt as boomy which is...

Am I the only person who thinks the sony 888 sounds better than the Etymotic? The sony is slicker sounding, fuller, richer. It seems more sonically advanced. The sony is like crude oil, while the Etymotic is like water... It kind of makes sense because Sony is a commercial brand, reaching a...

I did a search and read it somewhere, hard to pinpoint. You should ask your amp builder for the Meta42's sound. I'm going to save my money and get a cosmic reference amp... why spend money on a cheaper amp when I can save the money for batteries to use with the cosmic....
