    Superlux Express Train

    I'm looking for some new cans since someone stole my AD700s...I liked the sound signature of those. I miss the soundstage and detail, but I hated how anemic the bass was. I would avoid dubstep and hip hop when I had those, which are two of my favorite genres... Jazz and classical blew me away...

    Broke my Fischer Audio Eterna - Any IEM close to this price/performance sweet-spot?

    Funny, we're in nearly the same boat, except I STEPPED on my beloved Eternas. The housing held together for a time, then didn't...   My budget has been drastically reduced, though. I was looking at the S4s on eBay because they're so fscking cheap, like $30-40. Would I be horribly...

    Upgrading from Fischer Audio Eterna Rev 2.

      Hmmm, strange, I must have replied to the thread before realizing there was a second page. My last comment was about the EX600s.    Quote: I did, actually! You must just have dementia.  Yeah, as cliche as it is, I hate when artists get big...     Quote: Not...

    Upgrading from Fischer Audio Eterna Rev 2.

    Those are sadly well out of my price range at the moment.

    Upgrading from Fischer Audio Eterna Rev 2.

    Quote: Oh, lucky you living in Cali. I hope they did Lucy Ford and God Loves Ugly stuff. Not too fond of the later releases (surprise!)   I love the bass oriented sound of the Eternas. Funny thing, while researching the S4s, I ran into a post of yours from a year or so ago raving...

    Upgrading from Fischer Audio Eterna Rev 2.

    Well, I asked if there was anything comparable to the Eternas but cheaper, and they ran at least $70...   But yeah, for absolute specificity budget is under $100, preferably $50-60, might be willing to spend $70-80 again (in that case, I might just wait for the Eternas).   Even the...

    Upgrading from Fischer Audio Eterna Rev 2.

    Quote:   Thanks for your suggestions! I'll do just that.   Quote:   The IE8s are most definitely outside of my price range...   I loved my Eternas too. The bass blew me away. But I'm having a lot of difficulty finding them and my budget shrank significantly. lol

    Upgrading from Fischer Audio Eterna Rev 2.

    Would the Klipsch Image s4 be a suitable replacement? They're pretty cheap on eBay, and pretty cheap brand new on Amazon too. I remember when they were around $100, I think. I normally wouldn't be SUCH a cheapskate with my 'phones (as you can see, I've owned some midrange Denons). It will be a...

    Upgrading from Fischer Audio Eterna Rev 2.

    Quote: DDM? Manufacturer? Thanks for your response!      Quote: I will be sure to look into those. Actually, they cost more than the Eterna, but Bugden Audio seems to be permanently out of stock and the legit vendor on eBay seems to have disappeared too.

    Upgrading from Fischer Audio Eterna Rev 2.

    EDIT: Actually the thread is perhaps a misnomer. I'm not upgrading at all, but looking for a replacement.   I was lucky enough to own these once, but they died an untimely death. I loved the sound signature and the price point, but wondering if there is something similar on the market at a...

    I went ahead and got the Fischer Audio Eternas. :/

    Quote:   I have an amp already. A Minibox D. Just have to find it... I'd rather not have to be tethered to an amp, though. You guys have not converted me over these ~4 years because what do you know? Still a broke student!   I would love more opinions on the Denons. I love the...

    PLEASE HELP me find replacement cans for my AD700s! $200 and below

    I love bass, but that doesn't have to be the be all and end all.    32 ohms doesn't sound like too high of an impedance to need amping. My AD700s are also 32 ohms, yes? I almost never amped them. Or is it something about the Beyers in particular that makes them suffer from an un-amped...

    PLEASE HELP me find replacement cans for my AD700s! $200 and below

    Yeah, I would prefer open 'phones, preferably with velour pads, but I'm keeping all my options open, especially at the pricepoint.   I fell in love with my AD700s again today listening to some strings in a song by The Good Life. Beautiful! I have underestimated the clarity and the...

    PLEASE HELP me find replacement cans for my AD700s! $200 and below

    I just bought a pair of IEMs today so i don't quite fancy buying another pair. I was reading a review on them today and they sound too analytical for my liking, I really liked the Denon IEM sound signature most.    I love the price point of the M50s.  Is there a mod somewhere for velour pads?

    Quote: Huh? I just bought a pair of IEMs.  Out of curiosity, what would that headphone, be? Funny, I was looking at the M50s today. Too bad I missed the $11 offer... Anyhow, a closed phone? Really?  How much would the cable replacement service be? Apparently I need to replace a $300...

    PLEASE HELP me find replacement cans for my AD700s! $200 and below

    I've had my AD700s for about two years now, but now I seem to be having wiring issues so that I have to constantly fiddle with the cable in order to get sound to come out of the right ear. While they still work, this is very annoying and it's time to upgrade/get something new. I've always had a...

    **HELP** Replacing Denon AH-C551 with new 'phones?

    Now narrowed it down to just the Turbines or the IE6, leaning toward the Turbines.

    Sennheiser IE6 vs Monster Turbine High-Performance In-Ear

    No such luck yet? :(  I've got my eye on this thread.   What did you like about your previous 'phones? In what areas do you think they could have improved? That sort of information ought to be helpful, as well as your intended source.
