well if you compare it to S3 or S1 it's 2 steps behind in audio quality. I would not say it's audiophile.

Hi,   I'm about to buy a CKR7 but I'm wondering if there is a ventilation hole anywhere on the casing. I just got rid of a newly bought JBL J22 because it sealed off 100% my ear canals. It increased pressure so much that my eardrums practically couldn't resonate sufficient enough. I believe...

Anyone tried to 'upgrade' the IE8's sound image by adjusting theangle of the phones directing into the ears? I mean adjusting the phones by hand? It was awful to realize how precise these little cans they are when pointed in the right direction.

guys, I'm in despair. my IE8s are just not improving. it's well after 120 hours of burn in. it's slow, veiled, not pronounced, treble spikes are still there.... UM3X or Denon c751? I know the Denon is a different class, but I can't think of anything else. UM3X has no treble spikes and its...

add: second part is better. add2: no. empire of the sun? with trentemoller? NO. add3: pendulum? are you kidding me?

also check out uk chartlist. loads of cr*p can be found there too.

cism? hah. there're some really good ones here, but most of them jsut cheesy as hell.

K330 has a spiked up treble out ofthe box. haven't burn it in yet though. but bass is nice..
