Quote: Certainly looks like that's the case. I paid a premium of about $20 over the Woot price and got replaceable cables which could come in handy, so I'm alright with that, but I would hate to pay $99 only to find out the rebrand is only $30 every day.

Quote: You don't want to know what I was using before. A pair of cheap Sony earbuds with really weird ergonomics that I bought for about $10 at Best Buy in maybe 2007 when my old buds broke a cable. I haven't used them exclusively for the intervening time, but when cables break on other...

Quote: Just arrived today, been burning in for about four hours.   Product is CoreCool V2. I'm not particularly well-versed with IEM's, so this is a total layman's review.   The case is about the size of a paperback bestseller with about 200 pages. Inside is a paper flap with...

Searching through the forums here came up with a ton of irrelevant or marginally-relevant results and I don't have the time to comb through them all, so I'm going to ask the question at the risk that it's been answered before:   I'm looking for a low- to mid-range IEM, probably topping out...
