not being racist...but i thought i could trust most singapore citizens...   that is racist - saying not being racist doesnt make it not racist.

Thanks Hayder :)

I went from being ready to order these from Apple Canada to not wanting them after reading all the posts. How do these compare to the S4? Better / worse? Similar?

Im looking for basically a portable on / over ear version of the Sennheiser HD448 with the same or a similar sound signature - overall sound quality must be same or better. The HD448 is just too big to go outside with for me. I hate the style / look of the 2x8 series. Any brand is ok.   Thanks

I had the complete opposite experience. I gave my M9s to my brother as the M6s work better for me - they sound fuller with less but better bass. The M9s had bass but the sound shifted to the left or right depending on the fit (as Joker noted they are very fit dependent) and they sounded tinny to...

I have both - the PL50 has more detail but less bass. Try the M2 - good bass, good detail, and good soundstage.

Don't worry Danz03 - www.ownta.com has fake Shure as well as Sennheiser from $9 up. (click electronics - hearphones). How is Sennheiser not finding this and shutting it down? At least some of these ebay and Amazon fakes must be coming from places like this. Everything is being ripped off.

Just got the Black M6 from Meelec yesterday when their special was on to go with my clear ones. Can't wait for their new IEMs to come out.

I have both. The M9 is over rated IMHO and I prefer the PL30s. The PL30 respond well to Eqing bass into them and I can get them thumping with my Creative Zen Touch. There is no hope for my M9s. They just are not as good as the other IEMs I own (Klipsch S4/PL50/PL30/Hippo VB/CX300II or my M6...

I went from cx 300 IIs to Klipsch S4 - very happy.

This is why I hated working customer service - people like you. After all your anger Amazon agreed to send a new pair - usually they will try to fix the product instead - and I bet you are still not happy. Sell the new Grados and move on dude.   Actually, after re-reading your tripe, it...

I took the largest size Sony Hybrid tips, cut the black tip off so I have the white left that slides onto the IEM from underneath. I put these onto my PL-50s and can then slide my favourite UE tips on top of those securely.

Thank you for the reply and link - I am now sorted - will also pick up some hybrid tips on the way home.

I am confused about PL-50 tips. After searching here some posts say use the PL-30 or Sony tips, some say they do not fit. Did they change the size of the PL-50s? I just got mine and need to know what will fit as all the included tips do not work for me at all.   Thanks

GreatDane where did you get the carrying case/holder for your amp? Did you make it yourself?

I don't have a definitive answer but I purchased M9s and JVC 67s for the cold weather (-5C and colder) as I am not taking any chances with my good IEMs in those temperatures with or without snow. Better safe than sorry I think. If snow does get into them it will melt and water inside your IE6s...

The S4 and PL50 are very different. I have both and sometimes I listen to one, some weeks the other. My S4s did get much better with some hours on them. My PL50s  were good out of the box - but very different sounding. Hard to compare as they are so very different. Do what I did and get both...

I don't know if the M3 is $30 better than the M2 as I havn't listened to the M3, but of course they are going to recommend you buy the more epensive one.

Thanks for sharing - just bought a clear pair.

Just bought these last night. So far I really like them. I find that as my MS1s are open I don't use them very often at home so I bought these as a closed alternative. The sound signature is of course different but I really like them. I find them less in your face and more enjoyable than the...

1. MS1 2. Apex 35 (Equation Audio EP3070 shell - drivers may be the same or not - I don't know) 3. AKG 77 4. Coby CV215 5. aRoc wireless   IEM 1. Klipsch S4 2. PL50 3. JVC FX66   My MS1s are the best but I use the Apex the most as they are closed. I also like the wireless...

The 6400s are $99 - would love a review if anyone goes in to a store to try them one day.

I just picked these up - and after spending $ on cheap garbage (rocketfish cheap jvcs etc) and big $ on high end stuff its nice to get a decent set of winter buds for $15 (1/2 price at Zellers Canada right now). I think they sound like my cx300IIs but brighter and with less bass and with a...

Just went and picked some up tonight - very impressed for $39 wow - a keeper. Will probably buy a backup pair as I may ruin them when I attempt a re-cabling. A recabling  guide would be awesome if you are still making one. They come with a VERY long shoelace type of cable.

I don't find mine uncomfortable but I wouldn't call them comfortable either. At least they don't make my ears too hot like my Shures. I find any headphone I've owned uncomfortable in some way after a couple of hours (aside from IEMs).
