My third pair of M6's finally broke the other day, unfortunately. These have been my go-to IEM's for the past few years simply because they are comfortable, fairly isolating, and sound good to me. I really enjoy the comfort and the sound signature and the mic/analog volume option, but I think it...

I've got a pair of Monoprice 8320 headphones that the cabling is starting to fail- it's falling off of the earbuds. I really like the earbuds (great bass!), and would think about buying a new pair. But they are so cheap I think I would like to try recabling them with in-line volume controls (and...

Preferably a flatter connector like these fake beats. As well as a flat cable. I hate round cables with a passion. A very firey passion due to the 2 weeks of my life spent untangling them over the course of a few years.

So my 3ft Straight 3.5 M to M cable finally died on me, its shorting out pretty bad right now. So, I'm looking for a replacement. Noting much, I'm not a huge audiophile so any quality other than dollar store is fine by me. I am looking however, for a cable that is right angle on one end and...

Ok, EQ'ed a bit on these...  Thing is, with EQ, it changes a lot on the type of music you listen to, as well as what volume. I listened to these a lot louder than I usually would, because it brings out the EQ.    Here is the EQ I ended up with listening to "Too Close" by Alex Clare  ...

Ok, I will check those settings and give you a heads up on what sounds better (to me at least). If you are using a mac, here is how I got an EQ on it (if you have a mac, if you are on Win/Linux there are better options)- its a bit complicated but worth it in the end. I get to boost what I like...

Well, I have a nice 31 band EQ on my mac :) let me know if you have any preference for EQing, I dont really EQ often so I am not sure what I need to be doing for better treble, etc.     

Got these cans from my parents for christmas. Its been a few weeks and I've gotten about 100hrs of burn in on them (mostly vocal/spoken voice tracks), so its about time for a review.   First of all, the look       These things look a LOT like Beats headphones, but I assure you...

Quote: Tape mod? Is it the one where you tape over the vents on back, etc?  And what kind of tape should I use?? OHMYGOSH FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW... lol :)

Quote: Ok, I really am new to IEMs, and HI-FI sound in general... Whats the difference between these types of bass? I would assume sub-bass is like <70hz, and mid bass is 70-250hz-ish?

Ok, here goes. Got my monoprice 8320s today (bought them JUST as they went out of stock, hehe). My review after all of 3 minutes of burn in.   Came in a little plastic package after 3 days of shipping time, not bad. 1 pair of stock tips, little plastic construction (smaller size than I...

Anyone tested out buds? :D

Quote: Please let me know how it turns out! These look awesome in design *and* have Dual Drivers  (15! mm and 7).  If anything, I am wanting those probably the most as of now.. Let me know how the volume controls work too.  EDIT: I will be out for a few days, so if I don't reply, dont...

Thanks for the replies everyone, great stuff to look at...   On another note, what do you guys all look for in IEs for bass? I mean, apart from trying them all, how can you tell the good from the bad? I mean, you can just go off of driver size (Eg, Monoprice < MG51), so what should I look for?

So anything you recommend in terms of In ears?

Really leaning towards the Atrio MG5s ATM... Emailed customer support asking a few Qs. Will wait for reply. That and the Klipschs.    I *really* love the look of the Sony's though... Utterly amazing look, but at the price (Round $60 on amazon), and lack of volume control... its an iffy...

That would be awesome- let me know how the refurbs are as well in terms of quality...   Also, please tell me how they fit!! One of the few things holding me back right now from buying is that a lot of people say the fit sucks...

Just In Ear headphones/earbuds (I assume they are the same as IEMs)... Not over-ears :)    Actually the Atrio X's come in a model with remote functions- looks good ATM.... Will keep looking for a while though..

Joined the forums just to ask this question-    I am looking for a pair of new earbuds, after mine broke (again),  and decided not to let me solder them back together. So my question, what pair of buds can I get, with huge, thumping bass (Too bad headphones can't sound like my 10" sub)? ...
