    Stoned audio wireless IEMs

    You could check out Air by crazybaby as an alternative. It's an indiegogo campaign so you're taking your chances with that, but the company has brought products to market before and seems legitimate. Also 'true' wireless, similar pricing and claims about audio performance.

    A New Apex product!!! Name it HERE!!!

    I'd name it the Flatiron, kinda follows along your whole mountain theme - and also reminiscent of the shape of the P2X

    I second the clear nail polish to tighten up fit a little. Your ear canals actually change shape as you age, and also if you gain or lose weight, and during the seasons. I've found that just a touch of some Sally Hansen can make sure I always get the best fit.

    Also, it makes me really happy that Unique Melody is speeding up their manufacturing/shipping times. When I ordered mine about two years ago they took (what seemed like) forever to come in - they just squeaked in under their 'maximum turnaround time'. And then I sent them back for a refit and I...

    IMHO, 90% of the isolation you get from a custom IEM has to do with fit. The Merlins are the second pair of customs I've had, and they isolate far more than the first because they fit much better. I do think that universals with a long nozzle and some thick foamies isolate better though. Just my .02

    Capriccio for iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch

    So this thread's kinda old, but it was really helpful for me. Capriccio seems like a good app, and I'm here to back up the Filezilla thing - you DON'T need a jailbroken device as of this posting, with the latest iOS. You do need a decently fast wifi network however. It also works from a Mac...

    Michigan Spring Meet-Up 2013 (APRIL 20TH @ MSU KELLOGG)

    Hi guys, just saw the thread, I'd like to drop by since I'm in the area. I just ordered a pair of V-moda M-100's so I'll bring those, and I saw some people talking about vintage gear - I've got a Kenwood KA-9100 I could bring if there's any interest.

    Hisound’s Popular IEMs, 80% off for supporting our dealer’s new ebay store

    After reading some of the other reviews, I feel like I should try to clarify some things. I also thought the stock tips were awful. One came off in my ear, I actually later got a good seal in that ear but I had about zero isolation and no bass in the other ear. The sound was mediocre at best...

    Hisound’s Popular IEMs, 80% off for supporting our dealer’s new ebay store

    I got the 'phones last Friday I think, they sound really good considering what I paid, especially after I changed out the tips for some foamies. I left some (positive) feedback on eBay too. Thanks for the great deal HiSound!

    Enter to Win: Moshi Audio Clarus Earphones

    Cool. Thanks for the opportunity, guys! The three things that set my current favorite headphones apart are:   1) Form factor: They're custom IEM's, very portable and comfortable. 2) Sound (duh): GREAT bass, not too much of it, 'warm'-ish sound signature, clear highs. Actually clear...

    Isolation is really good. Not quite as good as my Westone UM1's were, but I was using the foam Comply tips and I've never gotten isolation like that with anything besides earplugs.   Shotgunshane, fantastic job with all of this! I get my right earpiece back tomorrow morning (after a refit)...
