    Sony MDR-1000X

    Just got back from the store, where I had a quick comparison of the 1000x, QC35 and PXC 550. In terms of noise cancellation and sound quality, the 1000x was definitely ahead for me.   However, I am a little bit worried about the comfort factor. The cups in the 1000x are much shallower than...

    VSonic VSD1/VSD1S Reviews/Impression Thread

    By the way, for those interested in the VSD1 Limited edition, I just ordered 1 set from bigbargainonline on ebay. They still hv several pairs left! Do note that they aren't bundling the foam ear tips, so do factor that in.

    vsonic R04 vs. GR06 vs. VC02

    For vsonics, the lendmeurears website is a pretty good place to start.   As far as I have gathered, the GR04 is divided into GR04 Classic, GR04 Pro and GR04 Flagship. The GR04 Flagship looks identical to the GR04 Pro, but has a 50ohm resistance rather than 24ohm. Lendmeurears sells the GR04...

    Vsonic GR04 Pro Flagship Review (yes that really is its name)

    I've yet to try the vc02, but am plenty pleased with my GR04FE. Have been hoping to hear from others who have both for a comparison as well! My guess, based on the reviews of others, would be that GR04FE is the middle ground between the `slightly V shaped GR02BE and the more analytical VC02...

    Multi-IEM Review - 352 IEMs compared (Pump Audio Earphones added 04/03/16 p. 1106)

    Great review on the VC02! Would love to see one on the GR04 Flagship, I find it extremely underrated, even though those who own one (including me) all seem to love it. Am angling at ordering another pair as a gift, but the choice between GR04 Flagship, VC02 and GR02BE is really tough!

    $40 IEM Battle Royale (RHA MA-350 Added 3-1-13)

    Try adding the Gr04 Flagship to the mix! With the coupone LMUECUST, you get 15% off at lendmeurears. That brings down the cost to S$55.25, or US$44.65.   I just bought a set and it sound great after burning in for about 30+ hours. Started out kind of crap, but improved significantly with...

    Vsonic GR04 Pro Flagship Review (yes that really is its name)

    Quote:   Just got my hands on them 2 hours ago! The initial sound quality was actually quite disappointing to me, with nearly no bass and not much detail/soundstage. However, just an hour or so of burning in appears to have made a difference and things are looking up! The bass has...

    Vsonic GR04 Pro Flagship Review (yes that really is its name)

    Hi all, just ordered a set of these so let's hope they come soon! (I'm in Singapore so it's local delivery, should be fast as long as they dispatch it early). There's a coupon code for the lendmeurears site, LMUECUST gives 15% off.   Hope to compare it with my (just broken) Xears TD4...

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    The TD4's do benefit from some burn in, mine definitely changed after the first 30-50 hours. The bass increases in strength a fair bit.

    Quote: I just tested it, works fine for me. Maybe try re-loading the site?   Anyway I'm an owner of the TD4, and really like them, but I don't have the expertise to describe/compare. Would love to read an expert's review/comparison, especially with the XE200PRO.

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    My TD4's come with a Y cord, not a J cord. And it is made of thick rubber. My main problem with this design is that it is so stiff it often refuses to sit nicely over my ears, leaving me hanging onto the cable to hold it in place. But it is really tangle resistant   My Xe200Pro Walnut came...

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    I'm liking my TD4's very much so far, but wouldn't say they are perfect for bassheads as they are more balanced; they don't bring out the bass on all tracks, only those meant to be bass heavy. My only comparisons are old bass heavy earphones so my assessment may not be accurate. The TD4's are...

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    8 Euros standard, worldwide shipping. I got mine in Singapore probably about 6-8 days after ordering? I'm still highly impressed by my TD4, the clarity is way better than the 3 other budget iems that I have owned - some cheap sony, Crossroads Mylarone X3i, Nuforce NE-6.   After burning in...

    Seems like the TD4 has come back in stock on the Xears website. Maybe more people will start getting their hands on them and giving some reviews soon!

    Multi-IEM Review - 352 IEMs compared (Pump Audio Earphones added 04/03/16 p. 1106)

    Any intention to review the Xears TD4? I have them and really like them. According to others who have owned the TD-III and TD4, the sound is different due to the thicker cable (which reduces the amount of air that is vented through the strain reliefs.

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    I'm surprised there isn't more hype for these earphones, the TD4 is really turning out to be a fantastic buy for me! Build quality looks solid (but we'll see in 6 months' time), and sound is really good! I'd love to read more reviews from other people who have bought these! In the mean time...

    Quote:   Interesting, mine aren't etched into the wood at all. Both L and R are etched into the strain reliefs on mine. Did we wind up with different models?   Another thing to note is that I'm actually struggling to wear mine behind the ears because the cable is too stiff. It keeps...

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    Yeap they seem to be gone. My TD4's and XE200Pro's just arrived half an hour ago! In the process of burning in the TD4's now. (the XE200Pro belong to the gf so she gets the privilege of opening them). A few minutes of 1st impressions (compared to my Nuforce NE-6's) showed them to be...

    Xears Thread (formerly TD III)

    Anyone knows how long shipping takes to get to Asia? I ordered a TD4 and a XE200Pro 5 days ago, and have not gotten any notice about it being shipped. Thomas also did not reply to a couple of emails requesting for the tracking number. The status when I log in say order "Complete" though.
