I had a pair of Shure se535 and then se846 but sadly (and somehow) I lost my pair of 846. The reason I got those headphones was because I got a discount on them and there was no way anyone else could match them. Now I'm looking at a pair of high end IEM headphones to purchase but I'm curious how...

Quote: no bud I haven't. I am going to go to one of the meet ups and listen to as many headphones as possible.    ATM I am thinking of building my own amp for fun.   Sorry about the super late reply, my classes took over my life and right now in another week or so my summer one...

My 535s sound amazing. I use the marshmallow earbuds and you have to learn how to put them on but I have gotten to the point were I just stick them in my ear and they are good to go. Comfortable and everything.    There is no way a $20 headsphones sound better than these and I have owned all...

well I understand there is a huge difference but there has to be base I can set everything upon. If I listen to a BA driver and then different drivers in the same price range then I can have something to set my knowledge upon. But even then these won't matter because the shells are tuned...

Okay I can't seem to find what kind of drivers the 535s have. Does anybody know what drives them because I could use them as a good base knowledge and for some different ones to listen to during the meet ups

Quote: I know life is downhill right after college so yeah I am enjoying it right now, in a way lol.  Quote: Headphones, home audio, and car audio KIND of blend together man so do what I did and switch between them. Makes it a lot more fun. Plus most of these headphone amps cost as...

So I have done a good bit of research and I have found threads on connectors, soldering, resources, and everything else one could think of but nothing on how to actually put the cable together.    Do you just buy a cable, twist, and put a cover on it?    I don't know if I have missed the...

Quote: You will be amazed. Hell this semester I had just my reviews, not even a class, but reviews on a sunday and almost every person in the class showed up. The earlier classes, yeah they were jokes. But once you get in your junior and senior years and those hard chemistry, biology, math...

Quote: Thanks bud! :)   Yeah I never was one those people that asked what is the best of this or that.     Hook'em

Quote:   Summer classes?

So basically here is what I have gather until now through this thread and research.    Different drivers will give different sounds but it ultimately comes down to how it is tuned (so basically like car audio and boxes).    They are expensive universal fits that I might like better...

Quote: Sorry for my ignorance and lack of knowledge but what does 1+2 mean?  Quote: Yeah Buddy! But I must say that one of my math classes is hook'en my ass up. Don't have a damn life anymore.    So here is what I was thinking about the price range. I build computers and I have...

Quote: Hey I'm in Austin too.    If I have to drive 3 hours and spend all that gas then I will be sticking around for some time then lol. I'm kind of really excited about this lol

Quote:   Where and how? That is what I want to do but I don't know where can one go to listen to heaphones that expensive.    Is it during the meet up that you guys get to try them out? Because there is one in June that is going down in Dallas. 

I miss the one in Austin but I'll drive to Dallas for this. I will be taking some hardcore summer classes so I will have to drive there and back in the same day which will suck a little but that doesn't matter.     How long do most people stick around, if you guys don't mind me asking.

Since we are talking about different drivers now here are two great threads that I came across with lots of great infos. I have yet to finish them but barely couple of pages into them and I have already learned a lot.   ...

Quote: Wow that is a lot of money. It seems like a lot of JH16 owners own the JH13 which I guess says something about JH audio. What type of musics do you listen to, if you don't mind me asking?  Edit: NVM I read your reviews and you have your music type listed :) Quote: I think he...

seems like the hybrids are the way to go. I love noise isolation but if the SE535 are doing a good job and the customs do an amazing job from what I hear then I don't see if being much of a trouble. I rarely can hear people with the 535 so it seems like on that note I would be good to go.   ...

Quote: Oh okay that makes sense, thanks!   It seems like I need to study the different types of drivers and what each one can deliver.    I found a thread about drivers with pictures here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/202122/the-headphone-driver-pics-thread   If they are any other...

From reading around it seems like one of the main words associated with the JH16 is bass and almost everything out there is compared to them.    I looked up the other headphones you guys recommended and they have 1 low, 2 for mid, and 2 highs so I could see why JH16 hits higher since they...

Quote: So what custom in ear would you say is the best? Idk if I should make a new thread for that question or not.   For me it would go    clarity quality of sound the deepness and punch of the bass range of bass the mid and highs    I need to study on my headphones...

Quote: Yeah I was looking for in ears only because I am going to be working out in them (which I hope that would be okay) and I really like the noise isolation with the in ears. Great for studying, watching movies, or anything else in general.      I listen to everything...yeah...

Quote: So what I'm wondering is how big of a difference in the bass and overall is it? Is like going from beat to shure difference is it going for 200 series shure to the 500? Or in car speakers would it be like 12" DD subs to 18"?    I am having trouble telling how big of a difference...

Okay so I lurk around here a lot and for a while I have wanted a custom in ear monitor. I know I could pay a $100-$150 and get them made from my 535 but then I always come across people talking about the JH16 and how wonderfully amazing it is with its super heavy bass.   So here is my...

Hi guys,   my brother is looking for some really good headphones between $100-$150. I personally have SE535 and I believe I might still be able to get 40-50% off at shure but I don't know if there is any other headphones that could beat them at around the price I could get shure headphones...
