    Review: Spiral Ear SE 5-way Reference - A new level of resolution? (Review posted 5/15/12)

    ^ Agree, sm3 can sound in your face. 5 way really stands out in the separation/ resolution in comparison.

    Review: Spiral Ear SE 5-way Reference - A new level of resolution? (Review posted 5/15/12)

    First impressions-- Not bad at all! The first thing I note is the vocals are further back... Great layering... everything is in place and superbly controlled--- instruments are very very distinctly separated - there's an added dimension of depth to the sound compared, sm3 seems too...

    Sennheiser IE80's Impressions Thread

    Just want to post a pic of the new ie80 I demo-ed today      As you can see, the ie8 is on the top left and the ie80 is on the right; under the bright store lighting, the ie80's shell has a tint which makes it  easily distinguishable even without looking at the brushed aluminium...

    What are the best IEMs for $150-$200?

    tf10s are really worth the money; and they are the most stylish iems i owned, if compared to ie8 and even the sm3 v1. owned them briefly (2 months approx.) and had no issues at all, so i feel there too much paranoia regarding the wires and fit. (ppl are even willing to reshell them blind, just...

    IEM's For Keeps! No ifs, ands, or buts!

    ^ in short ( in case u missed what i said) ie8 plus sm3 = awesomeness

    IEM's For Keeps! No ifs, ands, or buts!

    ^ Its best to have realistic expectations of custom in ear moniters... judging from jokers review, its only 6 point difference to the best universals. Having high expectations of it will make you disappointed in the end (with price considered). btw i heard the demo miracles and is was so- so...

    Sennheiser ie8 vs EarSonics SM3 vs EarSonics SM2 vs JVC FX700

    and not by any stretch of my imagination can a fx700 compare with the sm3, even with the best tips..

    Sennheiser ie8 vs EarSonics SM3 vs EarSonics SM2 vs JVC FX700

    yup.. i'll be more corncerned about the wooden fx700- the polish gold metal rim and wooden surface may scratch or chip more easily. not to mention the lack of detacheble cables.

    Sennheiser ie8 vs EarSonics SM3 vs EarSonics SM2 vs JVC FX700

    could be the reason.. i used only stock tips. but i always insert them deep in my ears when a/b-ing by pressing them in hard, like i did with my sm3. maybe i couldn't get them angled perfectly to get the sweet spot.

    Sennheiser ie8 vs EarSonics SM3 vs EarSonics SM2 vs JVC FX700

    i owned all three at the same time; i loved my sm3 and ie8, but disliked the fx700... tried hard to like it but couldn't find any redeeming quality about.. definetly overhyped i swear. happy to be rid of it... especially bad seal that leaks so bad it affects the sound... and the bas is...

    Need Help Choosing a new IEM!!!!

    In terms  on sound sig: tf10- rock and techno (clarity, speed, impactful bass- strikes hard, extended treble, leaner) ie8- R n B, 80s pop in general, jazz (smoothness, slight veil may give it an enhanced flavour/ muffled to some, great headstage and high fi bass rumble, bass full sounding...

    ^ same here. I think Grezgorz is swamped with orders at the moment; he is also waiting for components (custom iem parts) to arrive... Yet to hear him since my impressions arrive on 14 September. Grezgorz said to wait patiently for his reply.

    Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 Thread

    I guess the older one that comes in a silver & bluish green box has tf10 with straight jack, and the newer box have tf10 with the revised angled jack. The "new" one isn't new at all... Saw it in shops since June 2011 (could be longer, but I wasn't "audiophile" yet) :D I owned the straight jack...

    Already own Triple.fi 10s, about to buy some Sennheiser IE 8s....

    The most fun part about owning the ie8 is the burn in... I read some where that they burn in according to the music you listen to (nice if true, making each burnt in ie8 unique to the owner's listening preferences) I ended up selling my tf10 first just to see how the ie8 will sound when fully...
