I wouldn't call them exactly Bass light compared to the likes of my K701 but I don't think they suit your type of music.

Maybe you should have a look at Sennheiser's sports range, they seem to fit your needs pretty well. There durable for sports as there sweat resistant, they comfortable as they have those "hooks" and they should have pretty good sound quality.   An example is the Mx85 Or the Mx 680

I'm surprised not many people spoke of the JH-3A. Everyone that Demo'd them seemed to think there amazing. They may not be out yet but should be shipping in a few days.   They should blow away any other IEM on the market and will be on par with Top end headphones such as the LCD-2

It depends what your after, If you purely just want audio quality for headphones or something then get something from the Asus Xonar series. But if you have like a 5.1 speaker system and want gaming and home thearte effects than grab the X-fi Titanium. definitely don't get the Gamer though for...

Its similar to the Drives in Ipods and Phones now, Flash Memory. There really good for boot drives, as Hard Drives are the biggest bottleneck for most systems. We have had Skulltrail and Crossfire for ages and where only just getting into fast hard Drives :/

Hmm I just use the Pre-out From my Headphone Amp. Gives me Volume control and everything I need

I Used my K702 unamped and without a Dac while they where getting shipped and all i can say you will get better sound out of something like Sennheiser 595 unamped then k70x unamped. They had no Bass, and sounded very boring.   Don't Waste your money and grab something that is more suited to...

I'm not sure if you read the bottom of my post or not, but if the currency was out i suggested the G35 which should be a lot cheaper. Quote:

Have a look at the ATH-AD700's there pretty well regarded in gaming and are also cheap. But regarding the above post I think they are better at positioning footsteps ect rather then just total immersion. So if your looking for a good competative edge then these phones should be checked out.  ...

I disagree in saying the K701/K702's are bad for movies and games, sure there isnt a large amount of bass but the soundstage in games is hard to beat, and movies sounds much more involving as they do an exellant job in positioning the sounds and effects.   I play a decent amount of games for...

I went from the 595 to the k702, my main advice is that if you want to do this upgrade you can't cheap out on amps and dacs. The k702 beats the 595 in every way IF you have the source and power to run it. If you dont have a good amp you wont get much bass or volume and without a dac you wont get...

I should be able to come, and bring DacMagic, Keces Ha-171, K702, Cowon S9 and Triple Fi 10's. Are you able to try other people's custom IEM's? And how long do these meets usually go for?

Would the Keces be good enough for the K702's, comparing it to the cantate and swing?
