Well, it's been a huge headache trying to get the VC1000's to be repaired.  I shipped them back to bigbargainonline, but after a couple of months they have still not received the defective pair. Unfortunately bigbargainonline told me through email that sending them second-class USPS airmail to...

Bad news fellows, mine stopped working in the right ear.  How did you guys contact Vsonic about getting a replacement? I LOVE these IEMs and would much rather a replacement than a refund. Was originally purchased from link in the first...

So I had the strange quite left ear issue that others have mentioned.  It was interesting because I was listening to a bunch of youtube songs on the computer on different tabs and it was one particular video that I brought up which made this effect...

Just used these bad boys on my first flight and the isolation was amazing.  As good or better than the X10.

Yellow tips for me! I have to say that I really enjoy these stock tips.   I am so unbelievably impressed with the VC1000.  I can't ever imagine these IEMs not being a staple in my set to listen with.  I am just so pleased at their overall performance, build quality, and price.  The pinkish...

I know that this is like comparing apples and oranges, but what would say is the better $/value between this and the VC1000?  I have never owned a hybrid (partly due to their normally higher price range) and am quite interested in the H-200.  Does it really give the best of both BA and Dynamic...

Well, I took the plunge!  I'll give you guys a complete novice's viewpoint once they get in.  I'm hoping that these bring everything I loved about the R-50 without the quality issues.  I'm looking forward to the slightly heavier bass too.  Something about the R-50s just made them so nice to...

Can you compare this to the R-50? Please.

Has no one else really taken a chance on these IEMs?  Are they a large improvement over the GR01?  Just hard to believe the lack of updates on this thread :(

Joker - can you give me a direct upgrade to the X10?  I love the sound a lot but sometimes I feel like the speed is lacking (I became spoiled with the R-50).

Quote:   Hot damn, I wish I hadn't bought my R-50s so long ago... I LOVE the separation and quickness on them, but I just have so much issue with the sibilance and damn ear guides.  I honestly trade off between them and my X10s everyday cause I love the treble and extension of the R-50 so...

Quote: I wouldn't really recommend these for workouts bud, nor any other IEM at this price.  MEElectronics M6-BK-MEE Sport Noise-Isolating In-Ear Headphones with Memory Wire (Black) is what I use and love them for working out and running.  Sound quality is pretty good, and if something...

Quote:   Are there any other possibilities in the sub $150 range that you would recommend, or is the RE-400 my best option?  What if I were to go up to the $200 range?

Quote: Question for you... I really am thinking about removing the memory wires like you and others, but I also assume that will void the warrenty?  Any idea if that is true?  Also, did you add any sort of adjustment to where the wire connects with the ear pieces?  I was thinking about...

Is there a new R-50 model out?  LendMeUrEars has pictures of an R-50 that I have never seen.  It appears that the cord is very much different than the R-50 I purchased roughly a month ago.   http://www.lendmeurears.com/product_info.php?cPath=20&products_id=51

Quote: Just curious Techno Kid... do you really like the BA200 over the R-50?  

So I've noticed that the r-50 is no longer available on Amazon which is generally an indication that the product is at the end of it's life cycle: http://www.amazon.com/Monitor-Balanced-Armature-Earphones-Earbuds/dp/B005XSBNG4/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top   Anyone know if there is a new version...

The X10 is a BA with supposedly impressive bass.  I have never tried them myself, but I am very interested in purchasing a pair to go along with my R-50.

Have you done any research before spamming the main board?  I don't mean to sound like a dick, but imagine how useless the forum would be if everyone just posted completely uniformed questions and pushed the informative stuff to the back pages.  I would venture to say you have not researched at...

Quote:   I know you have always been a huge supporter of the R-50, so why would someone consider the ba200?  Just for the additional bass? Better for EDM?

Gotta do some of your own research bro, haha. In general BAs have a quicker response and more clarity. Dynamics move more air = generally deeper bass but not a precise.  The R-50 are a dual BA and have the same "familiar Knowles TWFK dual armature driver, which puts in good company with the...

I bought sony hybrid tips with mine and have used them from the start, so I can't really talk to the stock tips (although over on the R-50 thread many use the stock).  As far as ordering... I know that you can get them here...

I just got the R-50 and love them.  The over the ear wire takes a bit to get used to but they sounds absolutely amazing.  They don't have the hardest hitting bass, but I listen to EDM all the time and am perfectly happy.  Overall comfort level is pretty good too.

Look man, not to be a jerk, but you've bumped your own thread 3 times in the 3 hours since you created it!  Imagine what this forum would be if everyone who was looking for advice just created a new thread and then continuously bumped it to the top.  Have you done any research on the two?  Have...
