    Review: 1MORE Triple Driver In-Ear Headphone with In-line Microphone and Remote

    After almost a year these earbuds are still holding up well for me. The only complaint I have is that for some reason the silicone tips that I've been using since I got them have gotten very loose. To the point that if I'm not careful when taking them off, the tip will remain stuck in my ear...

    Review: 1MORE Triple Driver In-Ear Headphone with In-line Microphone and Remote

    Excellent review and pretty much in line w/my experience as well. I wrote up a blog post on them (along w/a few other IEMs). The value you get for $99 is fantastic.

    Fostex x Massdrop TH-X00 Review

      How hard is it to swap the pads? Do they just pull off or is something more required? I've been picking around the edges of mine and it seems like it wouldn't be too hard to yank off but don't want to accidentally screw them up. I'm currently ok w/the stock pads but all this talk about the...

    XBA-3/ XBA-30 thread.

    Does anyone know if it's possible to get replacement noise reduction tips (the one w/the foam ring underneath) for these XBA-3s? I've been using mine for years now and the foam has gotten too flattened out so won't stay under the silicone tip easily anymore. But Sony doesn't seem to sell these...

    V-MODA M-100 & VTF-100 Appreciation Thread: Images, Impressions, Reviews.

    I've been enjoying mine for about a week now. Was skeptical at first cause I kept reading about a recessed mid-range but luckily in reality it's actually not that bad (to my ears at least). And it's sound signature is significantly different enough from my other cans to warrant keeping. However...

    [REVIEW] Logitech UE9000 - Ultimate Ears HEADPHONES Released! The UE4000, UE6000 and the UE9000 - Impressions Thread

    Quote:   Just got a pair today and had this exact same issue. But after reading this exchange I just took the plug and really jammed it into the socket and it clicked! Definitely takes a lot more force than I originally expected.   Anyway, can't say I'm as psyched about these as you...

    Anyone buy from Turbulent Labs before?

    I have their black Manta headband for my Magnum. MUCH better than the stock Grado headbands. The top of my head doesn't hurt after extended wear anymore.

    PSB M4U 2

    To my ears the M4U2 crushes the Ultrasone Ed8 which is impressive considering how much more the Ed8 cost. I had originally gotten the Ed8 to A/B against a pair of Beyerdynamic T5p and while it had an overall more balanced sound than the T5p (not hard to do since the T5p is hugely...

    Sennheiser Amperiors?

    The cable on these is ridiculously thin. Nice that it's detachable and all but it looks like durability will be an issue, especially in an urban public transportation environment.

    Amperior is here!

    Yeah the website has the blue one now as well. Mine arrives today. Can't wait! =)

    Any anime series that you've been enjoying?

    The anime covers very little compared to the manga. I haven't read the manga but I did take a look at what was causing the fuss when it first happened. The anime had pretty much a non-ending (it was only 13 eps long after all) so it definitely wasn't as controversial.         Quote:

    11 New Sony BA IEMs

    I own the XBA3 and got the chance to try a friend's 4 for a short while. It's definitely got the 3 beat in terms of bass and I didn't really notice the complaints about the weird sound with the 4 that I've read about. And the mids didn't seem that much more recessed to me. However, the 4 is HUGE...

    Any anime series that you've been enjoying?

    IMO, Akira was ground-breaking for its time. Nowadays, not so much. Was never particularly fond of it.   Akira Kurosawa, OTOH, fabulous. =)

    11 New Sony BA IEMs

    I preordered a pair of the XBA-3iP from Amazon (US) a couple of months back and they just came in last week. I think it has a pretty well-balanced sound. Coming from an ety hf-3, the mids aren't as pronounced and I detected some sibilance occasionally that I'm hoping will mellow a bit in time...

    Nervous about big purchase. Need experienced people (T5p vs ED8 and website help)

    I took another listen to the two this morning. Basically, what the T5p lacks in "fullness" on the bass end, the Ed8 suffers from a similar "fullness" deficiency on the mid/highs. IMO though, the Ed8 suffers more from its deficiency than the T5p does. The T5p lacks sub-bass, but the remaining...

    Ultrasone Edition 8 vs. Beyerdynamic T5P, anybody?

    I think the Ed8 has a better-balanced overall sound but there are some things that I previously mentioned that just doesn't sound right to me with them. The T5p has great clarity and I like the way the mids and highs sound but it has a very, very, very recessed sub-bass. Besides that the bass is...

    Ultrasone Edition 8 vs. Beyerdynamic T5P, anybody?

    After listening to an Ed8 Ruthenium for a few days, I'd have to side w/the T5p for this matchup. Yes, the Ed8 has much more pronounced bass but whatever frequency cymbals usually come in at is accentuated too much and sounds really grating. The mids sound a bit recessed as well and the highs can...
