I was using my Brainwavz R1 and was quite happy about them - until repair service was unable to deliver the parts or a new one so I've got a full refund. Now, I have to buy something new. I'm using iPod Video (5,5 Gen, 80 GB, Rockboxed) with terrible fullsized normal headphones (Philips...

Sorry for double post but I need some advice. Please reply. *bump*   Have a nice Christmas anyway :)

Hi all. I'm kind of a newbie here. My budget would be very limited - up to 30, maybe 40 $ (I've counted it from PLN - Polish Zlotys) and I need to ask for help. My needs are quite unique: I listen nearly 100% of my "musical time" to Tangerine Dream (fav band since high school and I'm 23 years...

To close my request for help, I've bought SoundMagic PL 21. The're bassy ("I Saw Her Standing There" by Beatles sounds awesome!) and loud (I was able to listen the music at shop (I've demoed them and they were the only one available which entered my ears correctly) at -30 to -35 dB). Hope that...

Quote:   Thanks for suggestion but monoprices aren't available in Poland :(   Someone wrote that PL11 distorts on loud volumes. On rockbox I rarely use (if ever?) more than -10 or -8 dB. Usually I try to listen at -20 to -16 dB. And unfortunately, the Soundmagic packaging was...

Sorry for doble post. I'm interested in SoundMagic. My friend have a PL11 and I think also about P21. Both models are in my budget, though my parents would buy the cheaper PL11. Would they (both models) be good for electronic music?

Quote:   Thanks! But these SoundMagic PL50 costs much more than my budget (slightly more than 2x of it :( around 60$ - 200 PLN)) You've probably meant the Sonorus PL50 which could be a counterfeit of it or so. Those Denons I've planned from the start (the cool-looking silver edition with...

I've forgotten something. A friend of mine owns SoundMagic PL11 and he's happy with them (he also have some cheaper Grado headphones). They are in around 3/4 of my budget (~25$). Are they good for classic electronic music?

Yes, there are few ones. I will give links through google translate for Your convenience.   http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=pl&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=pl&ie=UTF-8&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ceneo.pl%2FSluchawki%3B0112-0%3B017Dokanalowe_P1-278143%3Bn100.htm&act=url   (whole list...

Quote:   I don't know. I'm not an audiophile. I'm a bit lost. :) Good bass (but not to hear the bass only) with good mids. I have impaired hearing (left ear = completely off, right one is probably lower than 20kHz). The features of Superlux HD681 is good for me. I love them.

Quote:   Yes. It's possible to buy Superlux HD681 (even with shipping! - I own them). And it's a big cash for me. I couldn't afford myself an headphones / earphones more expensive than 100 PLN. It's not like 5- 10$, it's ~1-2 days of work. Though under 100 PL (25-30-$) there is a big...

Hey, I've specially registered here to post this. I need help in choosing the IEMs. I live in Poland and some of Your recommended IEMs could be unavailable here. Thanks for replies and help! Hope that will help. I couldn't afford myself for experimenting with IEMs and it would be better if the...
