    Can someone compare Senn IE8 and CX95?

    I have both of these and decided to do some A-B testing (never really did this properly before) and I am concerned that my hearing has diminshed because they both sound about the same (despite x5 price difference)! I'm using an iPhone 3Gs with 320kbps MP3s, trance music. If both are dynamic...

    Name your IEM and the tune that really makes you appreciate them

    Senn IE8 - BT: Flaming June (the soundstage of the IE8 really make you feel the emotion in this track) TF10 - Armin Van Buuren: Unforgiveable (the TF10 treble detail really brings the song into your ears, esp at the beginning) PS - sorry if this is the wrong forum, but was just thinking...

    Best uplifting/progressive/vocal trance albums of all time...

    Any opinions? I'll start off with: Tiesto ISOS 6 - CD 1 Armin ASOT 2008 - CD 1 Above & Beyond - Tri-State Digweed Transitions Vol 4 (I know not trance per se, but close) Tiesto - Nyana CD 2 Loads of others, but I'm trying to think of albums that nail it pretty much end-to-end...

    Senn IE8 Vs UE TF10 - was about to start a review...

    ...but stopped after the first track simply because I find it hard to listen to the TFs now! TF's were great but I always had issues with the fit (although was solved somewhat by using the senn tips from my CX95) and I couldn't lie down with them....so a trip down duty free and I see the IE8s...

    Build quality of IE8 (failed QA?)

    I bought a pair of IE8s a couple of weeks ago from duty free in the UK and all is well functionally. However, I am a little disappointed to say that one of the screws for the bass tuning probably failed a QA: the ridge of the screw is not centered (i.e. the bit the screw driver goes in to)...

    Why did I wait so long to move away from the iPod?!

    About a year and a half into this game and spending on some fancy gear, today I decided to go for a Sansa Clip 8GB, only 40UKP, to see what the fuss was about the quality of this player, and more importantly realise how crap the iPod as an audio source is. Gobsmacked. Within 5 second of a...

    Minor bit of ear wax helps get a much better seal on silicon tips!

    I religiously clean my ears (I know not recommended) and I often find bad days where silcon sleeves dont quite fit right and I have to fiddle around to get the bass at full pelt...however a bit of earwax around (not visible, just minor lubrication on skin where it meets silicon) and bam...

    To TF10 owners - try the flip flop mod!

    I've had my TF10s for a few days and think they're great. I have to use sennhieser large tips to get a good and comfortable fit. I found that I had to gently keep my fingers pressed on them to get the best sound (i.e. that extra bass). Tried the flip-flop mod for the fun and now they sound...

    UF10 and iPod - is it worth getting an amp?

    I have an iPOD classic (160GB) and Nano 3G which I am using with the UE UF10 Pros. I am happy with the sound but the thought of whether I may be able to improve it with a portable amp (I travel for a living) is bugging me...largely because I have no idea! Any advice would be most appreciated...

    Senn CX95 to Shure SE310...need to move on!

    I have had the Senns for about 9 months and as great as I liked the sound, the build quality and ergonomics were enough of an excuse for me to make an impulsive airport buy of the SE310... Without going into too much detail, the SE310's sound great but I was fiddling around for ages trying to...

    Just ordered ATH-M50 for ipod, will i need an amp?

    The ATH-M50 are rated at 38ohms and my current Senn PX100 are 32, which are easy enough to drive so I am thinking i won't need an amp for them? Also, how much break-in time do they require? Any other comments about them?

    Any alternative ear tips for Sennhieser CX canal phones?

    I have the CX300 and CX95 and the perfect fit would be somewhere between the M and L size tips. Do any of the Shure, Etymotic et al foam, triple flange etc tips fit these?

    Sennheiser CX95 Review

    Hello all! I stubled across this forum whilst looking for reviews of the aforementioned headphones. I bought an iPod 160GB Classic yesterday as part of my upgrade from a 4GB Nano, which is much required for my 4-month business trip. The music I listen to is mostly uplifting/vocal...
