    What percent of your non audiophile friends can appreciate your audio gear?

    Id rather spend $300 on a pair of headphones than on a pair of Oakleys lol

    Upgrading from CX300's

    I had the S4's and they have some big time bass, but the highs can get harsh and the mids are lacking.   I recently upgraded to the MTPG's and they sound much better. Based on that i would look into the regular Monster Turbines.

    About a $70 price limit, need to find the best IEM I can find

    S4's have huge bass. Just as much as my Monster Turbine Pro Golds. Not as tight but the quantity is there. Also take a look at the regular Monster Turbines.

    OK I know what I want now in an IEM - suggestions please

    Maybe look into the Monster Turbines. I have the Pro Golds but i hear the regular turbines are still very good.   As far as your criteria goes i think they should give you:   - Great isolation (At least the Pro's do) - Great Bass - Good detail and imaging - Under $100 - Un-amped...

    In-ear phones recommendations? Willing to spend up to £30

    The $30 sony's(not sure of the model) have good bass, but are pretty cheaply made. Try to convince her to step up to to the S4's (Very comfortable and tons of bass after they break in) or the RE0 or the Monster Turbines. All should give her the bass she wants

    I just got the Monster Turbine Pro Golds and i think they would be perfect for you. Great deep bass, but doesnt overpower the music. Highs are slightly recessed, but for a headphone i think thats a positive. Should tone down the "intensity" you had with your previous IEM's. They have a great...

    None of my friends care much about headphones. That and they cant afford nice gear. Im probably gonna give my S4's to my little brother when i get my Turbine Pro Golds. Maybe he'll get hooked and start buying nicer headphones.

    looking for some audiophile adivice

    I demoed my brothers skullcandys and they were really bad. Way to much emphasis on the bottom end. They didnt even play the highs either.   I would go for the Turbines or S4's for bass. I had the S4's and they had tons of bass. I just ordered the Monster Turbine Pro Golds which should be...

    Help choosing new Earbuds ~$300

    Just decided to order a pair of Monster Turbine Gold's. Felt like i valued the greater bass over the accuracy of the headphone. MD was a little bit of a reach as the lowest i could find them was around $400. I got the Gold's for $230 Open Box, but from B&H with a full manufacturer warranty.  ...

    Help choosing new Earbuds ~$300

    I will either go with the IE8's or the Monster turbine Pro Copper/Gold/MD.   I think i might buy the IE8's at the apple store and give them a little test run. If i like them then i will get a pair on the internet. If not, I will get a pair of Turbine Pro's and see if they're any better.  ...
