    Purchased Hippo VB's - defective set or user error? (iPhone compatibility related)

    Frustrating experience...   My Hippo VB's have a serious connection issue, sound is barely audible, mono, no bass, etc.   I haven't read of many manufacturer problems, but may be the "surgery" I did to fit in my original iPhone (2g). Unfortunately, I did not test them with a normal...

    Best DESIGNED iem's for a gift

    Shopping for a pair of iem's for my wife who is Scandinavian and appreciates impeccable design. Comfort is important and they should have silicon tips so she can throw them in her pocket for everyday use (with iPod, wide array of music). SQ is a plus, of course, but I'm interested what is the...

    Vote: Nuforce 7m (50E=$70), Head-Direct RE2 (w/FiiO E3 $79) or C551

    If you go for the ne-7m order some UE or shure replacement silicon tips, the stock tips that come with them are garbage (maybe you'll get lucky, I doubt it). I stuff the phones in my pocket and don't want to be bothered with foam either. and yes, going from stock buds to ne-7m =

    Tips for Nu Force NE-7M

    i had the same issue with shipping charges at amazon, but based on the big thread i pulled the trigger on some silicon shure tips to try with the ne-7m i just ordered. since i'm using mainly as commuter/walking around IEM i'd like a more resilient option than the comply tips.

    Review Super.fi 5EB VS Future Soncis Atrio M5 V2

    i have been a fan of the EB's for a while but for my commute they're getting annoying (too large and need adjusting, cable replacements due to wear and tear). i am about to pull the trigger on the m3's when they come out and was very curious how they compare, this was exactly what i was looking...
