How to deal with volume in Android and on flights
I knew it would be simple enough to find an app, but I figured maybe someone knew of a good one already (I over analyze everything), and I was already asking a the in-flight question, so I figured why not toss another one out there .Thanks.- veruvius

How to deal with volume in Android and on flights
Odd pairing of issues, I know. I have a pair of A161Ps (which I am really enjoying - burn-in made a HUGE difference). I am about to go on a trans-Atlantic flight, and from previous experiences would low impedance headphones, I know that the lowest volume setting on an in-flight entertainment...- veruvius

IEMs ~$130 for sub-par sources
I must say I'm intrigued by the RE-400, I just wonder about the fit/comfort for my ears. Can anyone just say whether it's a big concern to worry about source quality with this level of headphones?- veruvius

IEMs ~$130 for sub-par sources
I'm looking for a new set of IEMs to use with my phone, laptop, and occassionally, my Sansa Clip. Here are the priorities: Comfort - I'm envisioning something like the Westone UM1, which is the most comfortable set I've owned (I used the tri-flanges modded to bi-flanges). Bullet style always...- veruvius

Hi all, I first came here about 10 years ago, been through the KSC-35s, 2 pairs of Westone UM1s, the NuForce NE-7ms, and most recently, Munitio Nines. The Nines won't stay in my ears anymore, which totally infuriates me. They weren't the greatest anyway, so reason to upgrade! I need...- veruvius

in-line mic or low profile, need by 12/17
Thanks for the reply, audioslave. I have a full-face Shoei, so no way the Munitio work for riding. I wouldn't even be looking for music out of them, just isolation and ergonomics. Do you have any problem using them over-the-ear? No issue with mic placement doing that? Anyone have an...- veruvius

Every time I think I'm done here, I come crawling back... My NE-7M's came apart two days ago. I thought I was going to get something cheaper (<$100) because I lose or break all my phones (KSC-35, 2x UM1s, NE-7M), but obviously I still have the bug. I primarily listen to all manner of...- veruvius

NE-7M's and static?
I've had my IEM's for a few weeks, and they sound great. Enter the problem: At work, I have a rolling chair on a plastic mat. When I plug my headphones into my desktop speakers, if I lift my feet off the mat, it generates static noise in my headphones. At least I thought it was noise, until I...- veruvius

I got my NE-7M's yesterday! Initial impressions: isolation and fit with the stock tips were fine. I have some extra Comply's along with the extra included tips to try out to see if it gets better. Personally, I don't like foamies due to the grunge factor. Initially, they sounded a little...- veruvius

Yeah, that was one of the first reviews I read after the ne-7m was mentioned. If you can attest to the fit/comfort level, I'm totally sold. Heck, I'm about to press the "Buy" button as it is, but now that the RE2 has been thrown in the mix, I have slight pause. My only reference point for IEM's...- veruvius
