    [REVIEW] Head-Direct RE0 - a new contender for the best IEM

    Well, to glue my Right IEM, I went with Locktite Super Glue from wallyworld.  It had a brush applicator.  The operation was successful and I am looking forward to many months/years with my Re0s.  I really like them.   BTW I finally tried them out with foam tips.  I used ones that came with...

    Help a guy out...... Anyone had to glue their IEMs back toghether?

    I posted this in the RE0 thread, but one of my RE0s has come apart at its seam.  I assume its just a bad glue joint.  I'd like some advice on how best to put them back together.   Which glue is recommended?    Will I be able to get them loose much later if I have to replace the cables...

    [REVIEW] Head-Direct RE0 - a new contender for the best IEM

    I have a pair with a slight problem.  The glue holding one earpiece together is bad.  The two halves separated on me.  I think this happened once within the first 7-10 days I owned them and I just put them back together.  It looks like just a bad glue joint.   Anyone have experience gluing...

    Deal Alert - Brainwavz M1

    I can't seem to pass up these deals on bargain IEMs.   So far I've bought the RE0 ($80), iM-570 ($60), MEE M6 ($40) and now the BW-M1 ($30).  This forum is a curse in that sense, but without it I wouldn't be hearing such good sound.

    jvc air cushion burn in time.

    I bought a pair of the FX66s a few months back. I was greatly disappointed in their sound. Mine are very muffled. I burned them in several days and didn't hear any appreciable improvement. Now I'm new to high quality IEMs. At the same time I bought the FX66s, I bought the Maximo iMetal 590s...

    Kudos to Head-Fi Gurus and 1 newb question

    Thanks to opinions on this forum, I have a pair of iM-590s on order as a major upgrade from Wal-Mart grade earphones. They will be my critical pair and I also have a pair of cheap JVC air cushions on order for exercise/yard IEMs. None of my mp3s were ripped higher than 256 and most are 192 or...
