    I hate to bump stuff...but I'd really appreciate some help.

    Upgrading from Senn HD238's

    Hey guys, I've been gone from the audio scene for a while. My Denon C710's broke, I bought a pair of HD238's as a quick replacement, and then I just kind of drifted away from audio for a bit. I'm going off to college in August and would really like some good IEM's to go with me. I've been...

    The Jeans-fi thread

    Quote:   The S5000VX is the only other model from Samurai that I think I'd get; it's still 17 oz. I'm dying to get a pair of Warehouse 660's from BiG for the spring/summer. Wanted to get some Momo's too, but they're still a fair weight at ~16 oz.

    Got a pair of Samurai 710xx a bit over a month ago. I'm loving them; they're superb in every way.

    Quote:   Hmm, I sure will. My 501 STF's are fading nicely, and I can't wait to see how the 710xx's will fit and fade. I'm hoping to get them near the end of my summer break to wear them for the next winter/fall/spring. 19 oz. denim in the summer doesn't sound too welcoming to me.

    Quote:     Even the 710xx is too baggy for you? I really REALLY want to get a pair of them, true to size, but I'm not sure how the fit will be. I was just up in NY a few weeks ago, but I couldn't stop by BIG to try a pair on. I'm afraid they'll be too tight, let alone too baggy.

    I don't know what you're talking about, but it's not a loss. Just wash them every now and then, with at least a few months in between washes. @ dreamthinker; I don't understand why you're telling the other guy that his nudies are unwearable now. Especially if your cousin told you that; at least...

    Need new IEM's or some recabling advice

    Those look like nice cables. But...man. Nice cables really come with a price.

    Need new IEM's or some recabling advice

    No, unfortunately I've made no progress. I have no idea what cable to order. I was thinking of buying a replacement cable made for IEM's with cables that can be replaced like the SE535 and then modify that to my own needs so that the miniplug would already be there with the Y split.

    Denon AH-C710 Review Thread

    I just recently made a thread asking the same thing. I ended up taking them apart myself. It doesn't seem difficult at all from what I see. Just some soldering required. http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/524641/need-new-iem-s-or-some-recabling-advice#post_7094649

    Need new IEM's or some recabling advice

    Hmm. So I went ahead and took it apart. I used the blade of a hobby knife to pry the case apart. Turns out that there is no hinge. The case was held together with some rubbery glue, and was relatively easy to pry apart.   The entire driver assembly lies in the smaller part of the case...

    Need new IEM's or some recabling advice

    Anyone? If the C710's can't be recabled, then any suggestions for new IEM's are welcome! Before, I was settled on the SM3's for an upgrade, but I'm afraid that's out of my budget for the time being. I'd like to keep it in the low $200's at most. I loved the bass of the C710's, though the treble...

    Need new IEM's or some recabling advice

    My C710's gave out yesterday; the right IEM won't produce anymore sound. The cable for the right IEM is probably disconnected where the miniplug is because if I position the cable JUST right and apply some pressure, sound returns to the IEM. So I was wondering if it's possible to recable C710's...
