ESW9?

Is it possible to mod the S:flo2 battery, poor battery life is a deal-breaker for me. Now settling with the fuze LO.

thanks for reassuring my decision

i really hope it's worth it, i'm selling my se530 and ie8 for it... after this, there's probably only one way to go, custom, or stop.

How can a product this good is not well known, I blame bad marketing )

I found a UK dealer that has the SM3 and seems legit: Radio Microphones , In Ear Monitors , Headphones and Accessories I think they charge a more reasonable shipping price compare to the official store.

for the people who own (or going to) the SM3, where do you guys order it?

The Monster Turbine Pro series respond well to amplification IMHO, although I have no idea what the impedance is, it seems to have a rather high impedance (lower volume compare to my other IEMs). The gold played pretty well with my D4. If you want a neutral IEM and bass boost to kick it up, go...

Or you can wait for the price of the new 32gb microSD to go down. SanDisk® microSDHC™ Card - Ideal Companion for Your Multimedia Phone Since they're both made by Sandisk, i think they'll have no trouble getting along with each other.

Well the S:flo2/T51 is well known for awesome sound quality but also a sub-par UI. So an amp might be the solution, but the ones under 200$ not gonna do any better than what the HO already has to offer. Might wanna consider the Headstage Arrow, it fits almost perfectly with the T51 and has a...

It's really powerful when set to max, that + ie8 will swirl your brain around.... But I doubt anyone would go that far because it'll bleed into the mids.

For bass boost an E5 would suffice, or the GoVibe Magnum which has an analog bass boost which worked very well for most IEMs I've tried. You can use the monster triple flanges, by cutting of the stem of your UM3X triple flange and put it in the monster tip, or any dynamic IEM tips for that...

MTPG>=IE8>Se530>RE0>W3>PL11

Have listened to a lot of top tier IEMs including W3, MTPG, TF10, UM3X, IE8, SE530. I'm in a dilemma between the IE8 and the MTPG as my fav. Both of the do bass so well but I like the midbass bump and the broad soundstage of the IE8 and the overall detail of the MTPG. So far the armatures...

It's quite a steal at that price, but whether it's worth it or not depends on your taste, for me it's definitely a YES!!! The TF10 can be had for new at around that price also, but it is a different beast, at that level, there is no "better", just "different". You might have fit issues for the...

For now: Clip+ - MTPG/IE8/W3 Near future: Rockboxed Fuze - Headstage Arrow - MTPG/IE8/W3

I'm using the comply now and it seems to fix the problem a bit but I need something that can last more than one month of abuse. Complys and Olives are not cheap here in Vietnam.

For those who experienced sibilance with the W3, what tips do you use to overcome the problem. I'm on the verge of selling mind unless I can fix the sibilance.

I'm planning to DIY my own fuze LOD. Is the Nichicon Muse ES appropriate for the job? If the different between electrolytic and film caps are that significant, I might save up for one of joe's LOD.

Don't get too carried away man...slow down a bit and enjoy your rig for a while. Before you know it, you'll save a bunch of cash. It's all about the music, not the gears.
