It might take awhile for me to adjust to a neutral sound. I think I'm used to fake boomy earhphones.   Yeah the bass was there, again way less than I'm used to and sensation was like having my fingers in my ears. I could hear the music from my stereo, just. I will try the other tips at some...

Hello,   I got my W4R's this morning and had a quick play with them. This is my first venture into decent IEM's so I have nothing to reference them against and most of what I say is gibberish to you guys.   They look nice and expensive. I like the cable and it's about the right length...

edited, wrong thread!

Quote:   Hi, I went ahead and ordered the W4R's. They should be here tomorrow. Hopefully they'll sound pretty good straight out of my phone and ipod. Touching on something LFC mentioned, that somewhere down the line, if Westone's or iphone leave me wanting then it might give me reason to...

Thanks LFC and brooko.   brooko your post is what I wanted to hear..sort of. I quite like the iphone. I hate itunes but as a music player the iphone is slick and easy to navigate. My thought process is, if I end up getting the W4, I'll always think my iphone is holding them back. I don't...

Thanks for the advice people.   Quote:   Yeah this is my concern. Someone said on a thread, buying expensive earphones for an iphone is like buying $2000 tires for a $500 car. I spent 14 hours yesterday searching the forums and it was comments like that, which threw me. The IE80's...

Hello,   I'm looking to purchase a new pair of earphones as I managed to damage the cord on my old ones (CX-300). After searching the forums, the two IEM's that keep popping up are the Westone 4R and the Shure SE535 but from what I've been reading they can both benefit from being amped for...

Many thanks for your reply Rico. I had my heart set on the V200/V800 and LCD2 combo but reading some of the comments has made me think.   I was actually just thinking to do the unimaginable and let the upgrade bug pass me by and try saving some cash for the new year.   Either way, thanks...

Would the HE-500 be a better match than the LCD2 on the V200?   Would the V200 drive the HE-500 to its full potential?

Quote:   I was looking to buy the V200/V800 + LCD2 combo in the next few weeks, but your comment has stopped me dead in my tracks. I can't get a chance to demo any of them so it would be a blind buy from me. I was thinking for electronica, this would be a great match but apparently not...

Hello! Long time lurker and first time poster.   I'm seriously considering the V200 and V800 combo. The stack would look nice and save me some space on my desk. I've read all 120 pages of this thread but I several questions.   What headphones would pair best with the V200/V800 - the...
