Yep, all good! I emailed TDK just to make sure and they confirmed any extension from Radioshack, etc would do the job - I got an email back within an hour, which is shocking.   Thanks!

So the extension cord that came with my BA200s just crapped out - audio is now only going to the left side. If I plug in without the extension, everything still works fine, so I know the extension is the problem.   My question is this: can I use any female to male extension cable?  I'm hoping...

Just received my BA200s in the mail!   Initial impressions so far - I love them!  Warm and musical, great soundstage, and very engaging.  This is the sound I was looking for that I wasn't getting from the R-50s, which I've since returned.   Hell yes.

Well I received my R-50s yesterday, and I have to say I'm not that impressed with them.  They do sound good, but to me, they're boring and not very engaging.  Plus, they're a bit too bright for my taste.   From what I've read, the BA200s offer the best qualities of the R-50s (soundstage...

So I listened for almost 4 hours last night, and I've been listening to these at work all morning.   I'm still not sure how I feel about them.  They definitely sound good - imaging and separation are great, and the soundstage is pretty awesome.  Still, there's something I can't put my finger...

Quote:   I agree with what you're saying about the S4.  They are very bassy, the mids are just decent, and the highs are metallic and fatiguing.   When I decided to purchase these, I was debating between the R-50s, the HifiMan RE262s, and the TDK BA200s.  If after a few days I really...

Quote:   When I said I wasn't blown away, I wasn't necessarily referring to the bass.  I was sort of hoping that when I put them on for the first time and pressed play, I'd be like "holy crap."  That didn't happen, but again, I will keep listening.   Quote:   Glad to hear they...

Just received my R-50s tonight - unfortunately the Comply P series tips I bought with them don't fit, so I'm stuck with the stock tips.     So far, I don't really know how I feel about them - I don't want to jump to any conclusions too early, but I'm definitely not blown away.  I don't know...

Quote:   Hi Mary,   Can you tell me which Comply tips are compatible with the Rock It Sounds R-50?  I ordered the P series, but unfortunately they don't fit - the holes are too small for R-50.  Any help you can provide is appreciated!     Pete

Just placed my order for the R-50s!  Hopefully I'll get them sometime next week.   Also ordered a multi-pack of the Comply P Series tips - someone else had mentioned they used those with their R50s and had great results.  If I don't like them, I'll try one of the triple flange or maybe the...

Quote: Haha, dammit, now you've made my decision more difficult  

I'm going to purchase the R-50s today - high five!   Any recommendations on replacement tips for these?  I know Techno Kid recommended the Ety triple flanges, but I was also wondering about the Comply tips?  The foam tips interest me - I feel like they would give you a more custom fit, but I...

Quote: I appreciate the suggestions.  I did look at the X10 briefly, but as you said, the R-50's sound like they'll be more detailed - since I listen to a lot of rock and metal (and I'm a drummer), I want to hear those finer details in the drums, etc.   I plan on pulling the trigger on...

Quote:   Yeah, I've heard good things about these too - they will fit the R-50s?  Also, are they all one size?  I know some of the others come in multipacks with different sizes.   Quote: Yeah, it sounds like I can't really go wrong either way.  Keep in mind I'm coming from a...

I'm still torn between the R-50 and the BA200's, but I think I'm leaning toward the R-50's - many thanks to Techno Kid for the helpful PM conversation.   I know the stock tips that come with the R-50 aren't very popular - can anyone give some recommendations on replacement tips?  The Comply...

Hi everyone,   I'm new here - looking to replace my S4's with something better.  I'm looking for a wider soundstage with better instrument separation and a less fatiguing sound than I get with the S4's.   I'm really interested in the RE262, but I'm concerned that they're not appropriate...
