just an update to a years old thread. the attenuator didn't perform well. it made everything Super bass heavy. I guess thats what extra impedance does, but for some reason the packed in airline attenuator didnt have that effect?

Hi all,   I'm based in Vancouver, BC, Canada and I am a musician. I started out with a standard issue Super.fi 5 pro and recently moved up to a Triple.fi 10 pro - they lowered heaps in price!   I am having fit issues though, none of the inserts seem to stay in my ears - the complies...

Do you guys reckon it'll be cheaper on earphonesolutions.com when this comes out? Or would the logitech store be the cheapest place to buy this? I'm pretty much sold - just waiting on some reputable reviews. The $399 price tag is on par with shure and westone triple drivers!   and the...

Hi all, I got a question - what do you guys think of this combination: Alessandro ms1i + bowl pads through a presonus firestudio mobile Basically I'm considering getting a Grado. I listen to mainly indie rock/Christian: Hillsong united, john mark mcmillan, Mumford and sons, mgmt, city and...

Hi all, I got a quick question - what do you guys think of this combination: Alessandro ms1i + bowl pads through a presonus firestudio mobile Basically I'm considering getting a Grado. I listen to mainly indie rock/Christian: Hillsong united, john mark mcmillan, Mumford and sons, mgmt, city...

How do these compare to the SRH840, SQ-wise? Seeing as they're both Shure's top-of-the-line models...?

thanks for that :) just picked up the srh840 from best buy... it sounds completely different! the singer's voice is more distant...on the super.fi, it feels like the singers is all up close in your face. theres is definitely more detail. i can hear everything wiht the super.fi, but with...

hey lol thats ok. ive had my ue 5 pros for a while now, maybe a year and a half? and youre right, the cable sucks! im on my third one and already its showing signs of suckiness... i might look for after market alternatives... reason why i bought the super.fi in the first place was becasue...

  Hey all, Weird comparison I know, but just wondering the general consensus. Which would give me the 'better'/more accurate reproduction of sound? Reason I'm asking is because I have a bit of spare cash right now and I'm itching for another sound equipment. Problem is, I already have the...

asrphani, i notice you also own the HD555. how does the sound of that compare?   im thinking that i might go open if i can get a more 'acceptable' quality of sound at that price range, and just use an el cheapo for when actually recording vocals and such.

ok....so im thinking to go open and get a HD555 sennheiser....then maybe do the HD595 conversion mod (which i am still skeptical about)....placebo effect?   will i be disappointed by that headphone if im used to the quality of the super.fi 5 pro?     thanks again all!!

i guess ill just hold out then for now :( darn i thought $100 would be enough nowadays...

hmm so i guess the consensus is the m50 is a better bet than the shure srh440 huh?   lol but its 2.5x the price :(   what i don't understand is, i see people in proper pro studios and they're only using sony mdr-v6s for monitoring! so that's why i thought the shure would be 'good...

hmm ok...so 1 vote for and 1 vote against the srh440? anyone else with an opinion on the matter?   Thank you!

Hey all :),   I just bought myself a Presonus Firestudio Mobile audio interface - novice musician starting a home 'studio'... Now, currently, my main 'listening device' is an Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5 Pro IEM that I've been using live. I'm VERY happy with it. But now I am after a pair...

vs. super.fi 5 pro?

thanks! i think ill go ahead with 75ohm...

ok. so 75ohm is sufficient? what are the downsides of going higher? (last thing i want is putting the thing on and realising the noise wasnt cut out sufficiently...) thanks!

:S lol im a complete noob....do you know like a specific model/number that i can look out for?possibly one that is more durable???I play on stage quite frequently and hence cables tend to break my heart often EDIT: found one on ebay!!! ETYMOTIC ER4P TO ER4S RESISTOR ADAPTOR (3.5MM PLUG) -...

Hey all, I have a UE SF.5pro, connected to a Macbook Pro just via the audio out. It's VERY noisy... so I used the packed-in attenuator. Problem is, the cable on it has gone dodgy and loose! Like, only works when it's bent in a certain way... I live in Australia and it doesn't look like...

ok im tossing up between srh240 and sony mdr-v6...(i can get those easily here in australia) which one has better sound quality? also, would it be realistic for me to expect better sound quality in those compared to my UE super.fi 5 pro? thanks guys!!

SONY?? :O lol in the IEM world theyre like taboo?

Hey all, I'm very new to this whole audio gear scene and I am looking for some VERY cheap closed earphones that are preferably circum-aural (more comfortable to me, compared to supra-aural).. I do some VERY amateur music recording on garageband and am looking for something to monitor with as...
