Hi Head.fi-ers! I was pretty here active years ago, but am now a proud recovering upgrader (my wallet thanks me)! My favorite sound I owned was from my Triple.Fis. I LOVED the warm tone, active base, and relaxed drive they pumped into my ears. Sadly, I lost them, replaced them with the UE900s...

My wife is looking for a pair of gym phones. she wants on-ear or ear bud (hates in-ears), that are stylish, have decent sound, and are small to carry around. The problem is, i want to find something cheaper, because the cat has eaten the wires on 2 pairs of PX-100s, and my Kossheiser...

Hi all, i need some advise, I've recently purchased 2 pairs of ADDIEM from ebay from reputable sellers with good feedback (including 7Dime), but it seems both have the same problem. though apple says that the remote feature skip/reverse function by doubletapping the remote buttons, each pair...

I know a lot of people have been looking for ADDIEMs for the previously cheap prices on ebay. you're in luck: 7Dime, a seller who has sold to many other headfiers, has listed "more than 10" for sale for $35 each. Apple In-Ear Headphones with remote and mic-Genuin - eBay (item 150373325670...

So i think this is rather new, but i was wondering if anyone had any impressions of this amp or even knowledge of the company or its offerings. I saw a few references on google to the monitor 01-USD, another model, but nothing to this one. any feedback, particularly in comparison the the...

Are the M-Audio and Ultimate Ears corresponding models exactly the same? Does anyone have experience with both and can weigh in? did a few searches on headfi and google, but didn't find anything. thanks!

I got a pair of Denon AH-C700s and love the sound, but i like to wrap the cable above my ears to cut the wind, walking cable noise. Sadly, they don't come with the little sliding piece that UE or shure IEMs come with. I did a few searches but didn't see anything (tough topic to find key words...

I saw this as a single post in a LONG thread, but wanted to shed a little more light on it. The Denon tips that come with the AH-c700 are a little short, and i had trouble getting a good seal. I tried the ultimate ears tips, that are a little longer, but the same diameter, and BINGO, fit is...

My buddy has a pair of Vibes that lost sound in 1 ear (surprise! I know)... They said that they'll accept a return, but only if he has the original receipt. which he doesn't have because he bought them new on ebay... any ideas how we can still return them? OR does anyone have an online...

I am selling a player here (Value about $200-$220). I live in the US, but have a buyer from Poland who is interested. He has no feedback and no past posts. (joined in january) He would pay through paypal. should i be worried? Does paypal protection cover me/him? I was thinking about...

I have a PINT, I love the sound, but just upgraded from a PC with a AV-710 (Nice Wolfson Dac) to a Mac Mini... So, now I'm looking to upgrade to a DAC AMP combo like the IBasso D1, Leckerton UHA-3 Etc (in the 150-200 USD range) Question is, if I love the sound of the PINT, is it possible...

Are there any retail stores (particularly in Philly or Phoenix) that sell cowon players? I know there are web retailers, but i'd kinda like to play with the u3 and i7 in person... thanks!

I currently have an Ipod 5G that i use with a Turbo Dock and an IBasso T2 into my Super.Fi 5 Pros. Would anyone be able to comment on how this sound quality might compare to an unamped output from the jack of a Cowon IAudio system (specifically the IAudio 7, but i hear that the cowon systems...

So there was a lot of interest in a post last week asking for "poll" of koss PortaPros vs. Sennheiser PX-100... Please vote only if you've HEARD both Well here goes:

Ok, so i just got the T2 in the mail and first thing that i notice is this thing is absolutely tiny!!! like teency... I could fit it into my Ipod case. This is an amp that will NEVER leave your source. now it just annoys me that my line-out adapter is so big and clunky compared to the ipod and...

I have a pair of Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5 Pro, but i need to return them because housing on one of the drivers broke... (BOO!) I got an RMA number and I'm going to send it out today. They told me to return everything i originally received, but knowing that others eventually have issues with...

I know there is a raging battle of these mighty mites, and a lot of people have expressed love for each of these. Has anyone heard both? Care to offer a comparison of sound? build? all input appreciated!

So my progression of amp-titude has been from PA2v2 to PINT. and I'm very happy with the sound... but it doesn't travel well (short battery life, DIY form that got me detained in an airport..., altoid tin case). I know that a DIY differs from amp to amp... so i'll add that its a 1 9v, M^3ified...

so our same ebay friend who is selling the Xtra X1 has just posted some of these. http://cgi.ebay.com/Minibox-D-Portab...QQcmdZViewItem it looks like 6 have already sold. Thoughts? Conjecture? guinea Pigs? I emailed for more detailed info on its sound and a comparison to the x1 and the...

So, I currently carry a PA2V2, but for slightly increased portability, I'm looking for feedback as to how I would do going ipod >turbo dock> volume attenuator > copper cabled HD25s. (I know shure makes a small in-line volume attenuator, and there seem to be a few others out there) I miss that...

anyone know roughly what I should expect to pay for someone to make me a PINT?

So I accidentally bought my way into 2 pairs of HD25-1s. it happens to the best of us. 1 pair is virtually brand new. (made in Ireland) the other is old and beat up, with peeling top foam on its 2nd set of earpads. (made in Germany) Here's the problem, the old beat up pair sounds much...

So I've checked the forums and read what there is to read and I still have a few questions about the HD25 recable. Here goes: 1: with no cabling experience, I should be able to do this, right? 2: I'd love to keep the 1 sided cable (that goes from source to 1 earcup instead 2 inputs that...

I own a pair of Grado SR225s that I absolutely love. I travel a lot and these are often impractical to travel with, so I purchased a pair of er6i's... but I don't love their sound, they sound rather flat, and I think IEM's isolate a little bit too much for me, I was always having to pull them...

I'm buying a set of cans for business travel. I will use them on short flights, in my hotel room and a little walking around. At home I listen to, and LOVE sr225s, but I feel like they dont travel particularly well. At home, on the go i listen to Portapros. I have a PA2v2 portable amp ordered...
