Wow,thanks daveDerek! i I'm still searching,but i didn't want the thread to become too "tiring". First of all, i wasn't even aware of the existence of the rp21's.Nice! I don't like how they look and also find them too big...but i'm reading great reviews from people in the industry. Now about...

Quote:   Thanks,nice suggestions! I've been checking out px 200 ii ,i've heard px 100-ii. I'll admit you can't do much better for the price. As for the ES7... they're slightly bigger than the hd 25-1 ii and can't test-listen them.I can get them for  $ 30-40 cheaper than the senns ($200)...

low isolation with minimal sound leakage is gonna be impossible i understand that, i'm just searching for the best compromise.Thank you for your suggestions,however even though i'd like to own both headphones mentioned,i find them both too big for portable use(something subjective)My upper limit...

Hello to you all! I hate starting new threads ,but i thought it would be nice to give you a laugh at what i'm becoming through this forum. I started out 15 years ago searching for a decent sounding headphone. Look at what i need this month and understand why i want to punch myself:   I want...

Thanks for the input! could you please give me an example of such an iem.I've tried a lot ,maybe i can get what you mean with an example.Smth Like a westone?

Hey all, posted this on headphone suggestions forum,time to move it where it belongs .Cutting to the chase: Need super comfortable preferably shallow iems with fabric asymmetrical cable ("j-cord") below $80,bass punch and extension.Iphone controls welcome. Should have some detail so i don't...

Hey all,  cutting to the chase:  need super comfortable preferably shallow iems with fabric asymmetrical cable ("j-cord") below $80,bass punch and extension.Iphone controls welcome. Should have some detail so i don't reach for my triple fi's too often Now I realize that i can't satisfy all...

just a quick question guys...what if I want the opposite of the k271s.(have them,want something different)Explaining: bass going veeery low,muuuuch more bass,somewhat cheaper and much smaller. something like the hippo vb signature sound(want es7 but its difficult to find here)

i own a mbp 13" and i often use the internal dac.I don't like it but it is just sooo much easier than plugging a usb dac each time and having to deal with disconnects and additional cables.That being said i have the apogee one and have used many top notch dacs over the years in studios and so...

Thank you so much for that thought! It's not that urgent i guess i'll find some tips that fit, but if i don't ,i'll let you know!

I think the long Head Direct doubles are good with the Hippos (in general i lik'em a lot) but i find them to have two small drawbacks: 1.They are long,and the Hippos are also a bit long and they stick out of your eat too much 2.The driver moves further away from your ear and trebles aren't...

Another satisfied hippo user here I'm finding it a bit difficult to get a perfect seal. I read you guys have been using the stock tips, sennheiser double flanges and i kinda like the short bi-flanfes from re0. Is there anything else i can try? I think foamies would muffle things...

Hello there.Just my 2 cents, I have the apogee one.It's a great product more suitable for the touring musician-music mixer-DAW user.(the internal mic is the best ever!) I dont have the HD650's , i only have the akg 271 and the shure e5 iem's.Output is way better than my macbook's headphone...

Hello,just wanted to post my opinion for someone who might be interested. I tried some amps,and though i will be getting one soon because some of my important cans-iems are not properly driven,i also got the hippo vb's after research. I don't think i'll be using another pair of headphones for...

Ok i know there is a search button and i've read like a million pages so i'll be very specific hoping on getting your personal opinions: Best bass( and acceptable overall SQ) 1. 3GS > LOD > cmoy BB  > RE0's         or 2. (Unamped) 3GS > Hippo VB's
