Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Just wanted to chime in and say I got iSine 10's (used) yesterday. Been using the V1 EQ so kindly provided by @KMann -- I tried the V0 as well but I think the V1 more closely emulates my LCD-2's whereas the V0 has too much treble energy and is too bright for my tastes. Loving these phones, and...- zandm7

Skullcandy Aviators actaully good?
Quote: They are great for rock and metal; the mids are incredible. Just remember, as above poster said, that they do not isolate very well.- zandm7

Skullcandy Aviator appreciation
Firstly, if anybody's hating on these based on the display at Best Buy, please don't even bother. Half of the headphones on display at BB are broken from misuse, and even the ones that work sound like **** because the demo player they're hooked up to is ****. I've owned these headphones...- zandm7

Reply to review by 'zandm7' on item 'Skullcandy Aviator Headphone Black, One Size'
Totally agreed. I was somewhat disappointed by my Aviators at first (not unduly so, but it just wasn't as wowing as I thought it would be) but looking back on my old Skullcandy/iBuds, the Aviators are a HUGE step up. And my brother just got new Aviators and doing a comparison, these are...- zandm7

(My) Sennheiser vs (Future) Skullcandy
The Aviators are a great set of cans, especially if you're considering the looks. I own them and I love them.- zandm7

New Version of Skullcandy Aviator?
Yes...and I'm really pissed because I got my Aviators on Delta Skymiles before the 2012 models came out...so yeah, I still have the old cable :(- zandm7

Whats better then beats
Like above poster said, if you're looking for inoffensive looking cans, grab the Aviators. They sound a hell of a lot better than Beats and they cost half as much and still look good.- zandm7

Sony MDR XB 500 vs Skullcandy Aviators
In my honest opinion, the Skullcandy Aviators are excellent headphones and sound better than my father's $200 Sony NC200D's, which are also generally considered to be great cans. The fact that the Aviators are celebrity endorsed does not affect anything; they may be endorsed by Jay-Z, but...- zandm7

Skullcandy Aviators vs. ATH M50
Yeah, I currently own the Aviators and have for just a few weeks. But I must say that I am seriously loving them. And for acoustic/rock music, the Aviators definitely trump the M50's. The only thing the M50's apparently have on the Aviators is a more present bass, but the Aviators are clearer...- zandm7

Skullcandy Aviator appreciation
Yeah, I got my Aviators a few weeks ago, and I must say I am loving them. They are a seriously good value purchase for an audiophile who's looking for a pair of more fashionable cans that they wouldn't mind being seen in out on the streets ;P but seriously. Awesome mids and highs, a little bit...- zandm7

Comment by 'zandm7' in article 'Headphone Buying Guide'
D'ya think you could add the Skullcandy Roc Nation Aviators to the entry-level category? 'Cause those are some superb cans, especially for the entry-level in terms of combining fashion and SQ. In fact, the other day at Best Buy, I was doing a comparison, and the Aviators were definitely the...- zandm7

How bad do the skullcandy aviators leak?
Okay, I thought it's been established by many already that the V-Moda Crossfades leak like hell. Anyways, I own the Aviators, and I DO care about SQ. I can say a few things about my headphones for sure: A) the build quality is great, I think, and anyways it doesn't really matter since Skullcandy...- zandm7
