Well, muddy may be too mean... but I think its prone to distortion and the separation between instruments is somewhat weak. However, I haven't given it much burn-in time because it put me off so much when I first listened to it :P Lately, I have been burning it in, so I'll see if it gets much...

Does it(EX81) produce a decently deep, full, soundstage? At least close to the KSC3/75s? I love that feature of KSC. I'm really wanting to upgrade from my HJE50... to me it sounds quite muddy and raw; especially crappy straight out of my iPod. It's decent connected to my computer. I want to...

I have the HJE50s, the KSC75s and the MX450s, and in my opinion, the KSC75 sounds the best, with the MX450 in second and the HJE50s in last. IMO, the MX450 sounds a lot better than the Panasonics. The Panas are very raw sounding, have quite a bit of sibiliance and is lacking in a full or deep...

Connected to my $50 Logitech 2.1 speakers which are plugged into the minijack on of my G5, my Panasonic HJE50 owned up :P All you other suckers have to put up with either distortion or high bit rate songs that take up space

One time, my friend's EX71 left side "broke", and we started messing around with it. I pulled off the tip and he started picking things out the cover of the driver. Put the tip back on and it started working. No idea what happened, but it makes me think that maybe when people say their EXxx...

Hey, thanks plato. I actually just tried using the large tips and they fit suprisingly well!! They slip right in and the isolation is way better than the small or medium. Not only that, they don't even hurt! Weird! I think the sound is better too

Hi, I have the HJE50 and the MX450 and IMO, I like the MX450 a little bit more. Although they don't stay in nearly as well and don't block out sound at all, the MX450 seems to provide more clarity all around. Although the HJE50 is not bad by any means.

Panasonic HJE50! $20 from Amazon. Same category as the Sharp MD33s, just not as good.

Alrighty, I'm pretty satisfied with my HJE50s for now, but the comfort level is kind of tricky. The small canal tips are great, but they're a little too small and start to slip out after a while. The mediums stay it great, but they're kind of too big and hurt after a while. I'm wondering what...

Just do the Select All command. Then get info on all of them, and there you change the EQ settings.

Have you tried messing around with EQ settings in iTunes? I have the Panasonic HJE50s and at first I was kind of disappointed. They feature that same sharp high "sshhh" sound you talk about. But after I put some foam over the drivers and edited the EQ settings, they sound pretty nice. What I did...

Hey, thanks for the response! I was wondering if anyone used that mod on the Panasonics. And it's good to hear some positive responses about the cable noise. I can't wait till I get them... I would have gotten them today, but Amazon was out of stock... and apparently every other day they say...
