    Westone STAR(TM) silicon tips and TRUE-FIT(TM) foam tips available

    I just received a new 10 pack of Westone True-fit Red tips from an authorized dealer for Westone.  I used to love these tips, but this pack was no good.  I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this; it is the new version they tell me.   I have included a picture of the new tips compared...

    Etymotic ER4 series - anyone still favor them?

    Sorry to dig this post back up from the dredges. I have been using a set of ER4-PT for about a year. At first I liked the very cold flat sound of them, but over time I found them painful to wear at longer periods of time (4-8 hours) this was mostly due to the way they sat in my ears using the...

    Demo music to test or show off your headphones

      I would like to suggest listening to the Chevelle Album: Vena Sera.  I think personally that is one of the best mastered CDs I have heard in a while.  It is full and lush and brings a bunch of different dynamics to the listening spectrum.     I listen to a lot of different types of music...

    Just put my Triple.fi in the washer...

    Luckily I washed them with like colors, so I did not notice if they ran.

    I just brought a headphone from a fellow head-fier here...but

    You could try replacing the fabric parts, depending on the model.

    Just put my Triple.fi in the washer...

    Ok, here is the break down. They are broken. The left ear has a light hiss in it, and the right one has no bass anymore. Even with correct seal. I called my insurance company and they told me they did not cover Washing machine, but suggested I call my credit card company. So I called...

    Awesome. Noted! Now, to wait and see if I need to get those IEMs now, or later... I am really pulling for my Triples to work, but the CK10s, from the various posts I have been reading through, seem to specify they are superior in a lot of ways. So they might join my collection regardless.

    Just put my Triple.fi in the washer...

    Wow, that is quite the endorsement. I am searching around for a good price on them now. I just checked Newegg, and they are as you said: 199. Should I be concerned if I find a really good price on ebay, or some unknown wonderland of cheapery that they are counterfeits? I have heard about the...

    Just put my Triple.fi in the washer...

    Thanks guys, you have been a big help. They are currently mellowing inside a cocoon of rice on a nice warming heater (it doesnt get super hot, just slightly warm) in a sealed container. I have not, and will not, try to test them out for at least 3 days. At which point I will either breathe a...

    Just put my Triple.fi in the washer...

    So guys, I just put my Triple.fi's in the washer this evening accidentally. I am letting them dry out now, hoping they will work later. Has anyone done something similar, and what kind of success should I expect with the overall durability of Ultimate Ears products for this treatment. Moving...

    Need help picking studio monitors

    What I use for the KRK Rokit 6's is a POD Studio UX2. They feed out through two male XLR to 1/4" patch cords, and I control them with the volume knob on the UX2. They sound great currently using this method. I am not sure what the "S/PDIF Digital out" port is used for, but it seems to be a...

    any experience with KRK Ergo?

    Yeah, I would be interested in this as well, as I just got my first pair of KRK Rokit6's for tracking and mixing music. I live in a rectangle studio and don't have a lot of padding on the walls, just a few heavy curtains hanging about 1 inch from the wall surrounding the speakers and the...
