I continued searching/researching and stumbled onto the MW600. It seems to sell from ~$50 USD, but in Canada it's over $100! Our money is close to par with the USD, and I can't justify spending $100 bucks for this! :(   Perhaps I should consider a good IEM with In-Line controles and mic. Any...

Hi everyone. I like carrying the leat amount of gear possible. I'm no audiophiles, but I appreciate good sound. I listen to pop, rock and electronic music. I like good bass from my IEM. I've recently started using my iPad to listen to music. Leave it in my backpack with my wired IEMs. This...

Something to note (not sure if this has been previously mentioned in this thread): For those of you who wear glasses when you listen to music, the AKG's are definetly starting to put pressure on my ears where my glasses are. I've had these cans for almost 2 weeks now and use them on my...

This is both on-topic and off-topic, but I feel the need to post it here for future searchers (like I was when I was...) This is for all Canadians. I bought them online at axemusic.com. They were $79.92 CDN (about $65-$70USD). Shipping varies from province to provice. If you can't find them...

Well after all of the great reviews on this site and mainly in this thread, I just pulled the trigger on a pair of K-81DJ's from Axemusic.com (Canada). This ends my search (hopefully) for a closed portable can to hook up to my U3. Can't wait to try them out, my cousin is gonna pick them up for...

Thanks for all of you help Guys. I'm gonna try the HD280 when I finally get the player, but I think I'm gonna shop the AKG around and see if I can find it online.

Unfortunely, I can't find any AKG or Audio Technical locally. The Senns are easily available. So far best prices are online and the ones listed were online delivered to Cananda with Applicable taxes. I'm being told by a local shop that the 280's will not be driven well by the U3. He suggested...

Anyone else?

Hello. I've been doing some research on this wonderful site, and now I need a little nudge in the right direction. These headphones will be used with my iAudio U3 which I understand also has a decent headphone out jack (haven't used it yet as it is my Xmas gift from wife). My budget is...
