Hi All, Haven't posted on this forum in a super long time, mostly been a lurker to read the Schiit biography that Jason Stoddard has been writing as well as keep apprised of new headphone related news. With that being said, I recently picked up the M&D MG20s to use as a gaming headset with my...

HD-555 + Fiio E5 is a really great combination. I have no experience with the 595s, but the 555 + E5 combo will probably close the gap in sound quality while also not breaking your wallet. I type this out while in fact listening to music through my 555 + E5 combination. Great listening...

I think the name is fitting, but i hate using it around most of the people i talk to, because they're not in the know

Just had one: From the Cradle to the Grave by Evil Activities Setup: HD-555s Fiio E5 Currently having another one... Vengeance - Evil Activities

*gasp* Fellow NJ Head-Fi'ers?!?!? Im up in Flanders Don't have a pair of Phonaks though... just my ety er6s and senn hd555s Northern NJ Head-Fi meet..........?

I too, also have an E5. Course, I am using mine with the HD-555s, and I must say, I didn't think there was anyway I could brighten the HD-555s overall dark soundstage, but once I hooked it up to my E5, these Senn's got lit the $^%# up, quite literally! Overall, in my time with the E5, I think it...

etymotic er6i + fiio e5 (amp) can't go wrong as a beginner set

Well, personally, I haven't heard many headphones in my lifetime, so I guess I have no valid opinion in terms of your headphone choice, all I can tell you is that like you, I listen to tons of trance, hardstyle, whatnot, and the HD-555s plus Fiio E5 are amazing. Plus, the two only cost about 110...

Quote: They're equal to my Hd 555 now, with more bass. Don't say that you'll make me wish I hadn't bought my HD-555s However, I think my HD-555 + Fiio E5 combo would have somethin to say bout that

Woops, sorry, saw the last post a little too late... disregard me

Infected Mushroom - Suliman I've gotten high from listening to this song before, it's one of those songs that ran my life for many years Warp Brothers - Distorted Frequency One of those songs that are just immaculate in their conception. All 7 minutes of this song are pure enjoyment for me...

Artist: Showtek Recording: We Live For the Music - The Sounds of X-Clusive Australia Absolutely amazing mix by Showtek, if you can appreciate Hardstyle, definitely look out for this, because all 32 minutes of it is pure sex!

Best: Etymotic ER6i My first step (well, not first really, I just didn't like the SE210s, although I didn't give them enough time) into truly good IEMs. Since I've gotten them 2 weeks ago I've learned to appreciate the sound isolation as well as the sound quality (with Fiio E5). Worst...

Quote: When you say it, do you refer to the FiiO E5 or to your hearing? Because I hear nothing at 10 Hz and only very faint at 20 Hz. I was answering somebodies question on that one, and yes it was with the E5, I didn't bother trying that with unamped ER6i's, but I could if you would...

Quote: is there anyway you could do the tone test in the other thread and let us know when it starts rolling off and at what point do you stop hearing the bass with the E5 Alrighty, sorry for the prolonged response, but I did the test and it started rolling off around 14-15hz, but you...

I will admit, a year or two ago when I first saw Skullcandy headphones I thought I had stumbled upon good headphones that I could trust... Well, that all went down the drain when I bought a pair of them. They were perhaps the worst built headphones I'd ever had. I give them credit for lasting as...

Yep, I was wrong bout that one... sorry peeps *edits it out*

Quote: Would you say it adds tone to sustained bass notes? And how about where we are dealing with multiple voices at one time? This is where my er-6i's seem completely deficient in the bottom end. The more voices, the muddier the bass gets, and I've even observed a subtle gravelly...

Just tried it, seems to work with my iPhone Thank you very much for this information!

Ah Infected Mushroom, I've been in love with them for years, and I have mountains of their music. Listening to The Messenger by Mushie & DJ Jorg.... One bloody masterpiece!

I think I might pick up a pair of Marshmallows just to compare to my Ety's Janco, unless you're lookin specifically for in ear phones, you should check out the Koss Portapro, you can't go wrong with a lifetime warranty, they break, you just sendem back! The KSC75s are cheap too, and I believe...

Sorry for double post, but here's a quick pic! Jeez, that was taken with my iPhone too...things huge...

Quote: Hey Jack. Good to hear about the Er6i's. I have the same ones but was not very happy with the lack of bass. How much of an improvement does the Fiio E5 offer? More to the point... can you properly rock out to Dead Prez's Hip-Hop with this portable amp. I seem to be having...

Got my Fiio E5 today fellas, that bass you're all missing in the ER6i? Yeah well it's there now, now these IEMs really kick major @$$ cheeeeeeeers!
