    UE900 with better bass?

    Hi folks, Is there an IEM like the UE900 but with better bass? Detachable MMCX cable, good isolation, comfy negative profile in ear since I sleep on my side with them in. UE900s are ok but I'm a bit disappointed in the bass, tried all the different ear tips. Everything else I'm happy with...

    Ultimate Ears UE 900 Discussion and Impressions Thread

    Can anyone tell me which tips will provide the best bass with the ue900s? I don't mind paying like $30 with shipping for these, I want more bass!    I was using a double-flange silicone, but 1 of the tips has gone missing... I ordered a triple flange silicone of ebay for like $10 about a week...

    didn't read the thread but lol @ the clear cables / plastic. looks like you're wearing a hearing aid. this stuff better come in different solid colours   might as well buy a custom fitted one for around the same price anyway.

    cans that are cheaper in japan?

    hmm... very nice links! Thanks! (and nice 1st post as well, bluesw) I was planning to get the es7's from amazon.co.jp (about 12500 yen) But whats the deal with Stax? Aren't those things speakers? = sound leaks?? And the W5000 is out of my price range...

    yeah, I guess I'll have to be careful not to scratch the mirrors

    cans that are cheaper in japan?

    lol, yeah but do they have mirrors?? damnnnn!!! *ahem* Anyway, I'd like to use the cans as a portable and not get laughed at... which will happen with those stax...but with the es7, it'll look good, sound decent, won't need an amp, etc. Maybe I'll consider electrostatics in a few years...

    Help needed on selecting a pair of headphones/earphones.

    hd650 would be better all around with an amp, especially if you're going to use your cd player to drive them (is that even possible??). I don't own an amp, but I guess the idea is if you connect your headphone through the amp, the sound quality is better.. same goes for cables.

    cans that are cheaper in japan?

    what a butt-ugly can!!! (sr-2050) It looks like they took 2 microphones / speakers and glued them to a headband!! If I took the cans that I am to purchase outside, I'd like to not get laughed at..
