Pretty sure it's the mids. Burned in for around 50 hours, tried lots of different ear positioning. It just makes my music sound as if it was encoded at very low bitrates but most of my stuff is either flac or 320 Kbps mp3 and I've never had the problem with quality phones before. I even tried a...

Have been listening to my new pair for a fair bit..  As much as I want to like them I just can't.  For some reason the mids sounds extremely veiled to me, even compared to my incase sonics they are nowhere near as lush or smooth.  I've had M-Audio Q40s and Ultrasone Pro 900s at different points...

Just a heads up, M80 in shadow are currently going for $157.12 on Amazon.  Get em while they're hot!

I tried these out at a BB once and yeah they sound pretty poopy, but they are remarkably comfortable and seem pretty durable.  You can snag a used (like new) set from amazon here for around 23 bucks shipped.  Not a bad proposition by any means for the money.  Wouldn't pay much more than that...

These are being sold for $340 by Beach Audio via amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001F00F0E/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&seller=), or $346 by amazon directly. I remember they used to be sold for $320 by buyauthorized on ebay but if I recall correctly they raised the price to...

Hey all,   Is there still any interest in CD players at all?  I just discovered I have a sony D-NE20 lying around, and it made me wonder if any of you folks are still using CD players?  I remember when I first got this thing it was cutting edge and "the thinnest CD playa evaa."  I haven't...

Hey all,   I just received the M9P in the mail.  Having previously owned only one of meelectronic's earbuds (the M11 when it first came out), I was very impressed with the cable quality.  Although a little stiff, it was quite thick and felt indestructible.  The cabling on the M9Ps I just got...

Obvious troll is obvious... I've tried the low riders, they made me want to stab myself in the face with a giant lit tiki torch.  Luckily there was no such implement on hand so I just cried from the sheer awfulness that was emanating from these god-awful things.  True story.

Thanks for the review!  Thinking of picking up a set sometime soon...

I have a set of these speakers... Never heard the HD555s so I can't really compare the two but my A2s actually don't have very much bass.  Well... They have a lot a LOT of mid-bass but there really isn't much low bass, even when EQ'd.  I personally needed the smallest set of speakers I could...

You can pick Crossfades up for 100-120ish on the 'bay, FWIW.  I picked up a pair and they appear to be legit, they sound decent, nothing to write home about though.  Bass is massive, but a bit bloated compared to the M-Audio Q40s, which I also have.  Overall the Crossfades aren't bad at all if...

Got these IEMs mid-January, so almost a year now.  The cable crapped out on me last month but I'm very hard on my gear so it's not completely surprising, the actual drivers themselves are still great though, I rigged up a DIY cable and they sound better than ever.  This new cable's starting to...

Quote:     I tried these on at an apple store the other day, I was not very impressed.  Of course the store was packed and loud as all hell but to me they  are not worth the money in terms of sound.  The mids were very recessed and the highs didn't do much for me either.  The cans are...

I checked them out at a local best buy a few days ago, one of the employees had a set around his neck and I asked him if I could try em out.  Take everything I say with a grain of salt because I'm still relatively new at this but it didn't seem like anything special, I have a pair of M-Audio...

Ah okay, thanks for the input!  I just saw the Philips x O'Neill Stretch collaboration headphones and they look like they'd be the ideal headphone enclosures for me (minus the funky colors) but unfortunately they sound pretty bad according to reviews.  Damn, could have been pretty awesome.. 

Hi everyone,   I recently purchased the M-Audio Q40s and I'm lovin' the way they sound, but to be honest I feel like their build quality is not entirely up to par.  Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with the actual materials used, but the wire leading from the left driver to the...

Okay thanks everyone, I'll try the foam mod when I get back to my dorms later today. Kinda weird that the problem would switch sides when I switched the cable around though, but I'll let you all know how it goes sometime this afternoon. daouda the cables are actually very sturdy and the ends...

I've had a pair of these iems for about two months, gotta agree with everything that's been said so far about em; and for my needs they're practically perfect. Recently I've been noticing that sometimes the left bud's driver seems to.. crackle? I'm not sure if that's the exact word but it sounds...

Take a look at the Panasonic HJE900's as well, I've got a pair myself and they're quite amazing for the price (got em from J&R for 110 bucks back when they still had em in stock, don't know how much they're going for now). And, sorry to hijack the thread but, does anybody know for sure if...
