Decision Time: Vibes, M5, or SuperFi 5 EB?
I just so happen to have owned all 3 pair of the earphones you have in question. The Vibes where definitely the worse of the 3, I found the bass lacking and they developed a short in the right channel after a few months of use. The M5's are good all around canal phones and you really can't go...- skyles

Is it true that all of the Creative lab zens break easily?
yeah, the store manager was a real prick. it wasn't until i made a big scene that they finally decided to honor their warranty. its like when you check out at the counter they basically try to shove the extended warranty down your throat but when you use it then they want to weasel their way out...- skyles

Amp worth it for Nomad Zen?

iHP-120 Or 60GB Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra
hu$tler, you definitley want to roll with the zen because its cheaper, the eq is more flexable and the headphone out bangs, do yourself a favor and get a pair of porta pro's or better yet px-200 cuz the bass knocks. If you got the paper, get a supermini or micro amp and its like you got your own...- skyles

i find that the px-200's bass more than enough with the proper amp. i could not recommend a better portable headphone for under $200 (usd).- skyles
