Wish I would've gotten in on the $25 sale.. Any other offers going around?

Bump...The generic overplayed title may be throwing people off. This thread is a little more specific.

Hello head-fi, this may be my first thread in the several years since I've been registered here. First of all, I'll say that the members here have guided me right in my (few) can purchases. My latest and most recent purchase, the JVC HARX700, definitely delivered in every aspect they were...

Quote: Originally Posted by IPodPJ Yeah, I noticed the original PLUG, too. It has an amazing freq. response of 16Hz - 23Khz and a sensitivity of 116dB/mw. I imagine if modded, those might sound pretty good like you say. They wouldn't be for me, just for one of my siblings. I certainly...

Yup, I'd be really interested in hearing what the board thinks of those headphones, those were going to be my next purchase. By the way, what exactly does IEM mean? Something to do with in-ear headphones I suppose? I've never used any but I think it's the way to go.

Actually, I've always lingered with the thought, but never decided, about going with the type of headphone that actually goes in your ear, not too sure what they're called. It makes sense that they would deliver a more "complete" sound, is this the case?

I really don't know much at all about high end headphones, but I can appreciate "true" and clean sound quality. Firstly, my budget is $100, give or take $10 . The only ones I had considered (only ones I knew about) were the Grado SR 80's http://www.amazon.com/Grado-80-SR80/...&s=electronics...

well, I have done all of the windows updates, except 2 of them, Internet Explorer 7, and a security update for Internet Explorer. For some very odd reason though...I can't download IE7 from windows because of...validation problems, lol. Still though, I don't think that'd be a critical...

sleek design and surprisingly good sound quality, from what I have been able to hear in the preloaded content though. I just bought this yesterday and started hating it pretty quickly. I'd read how the software was writting like complete ****, but I didn't think it would be this bad. I've...

Quote: Originally Posted by Mr.Radar Both are horrible (the HD202 is actually suppost to be better than the 212) and you shouldn't buy either if you can buy others. For $50 closed cans you should get the Sennheiser PX200 or see if you can find a Sony V6 (not V600!) on eBay (they usually...

Which would you prefer? The 212's are $20 more than the 457. I bought the 457's today, and I don't like the open ear type like these ( ) I'm planning on returning these for the 212's, is it the best thing to do?
