guys I really appreciate the information. I will be checking in on the sansa clip + and rockbox. I do wish that my phones had just a tad more on the high end and little punchier bass volume wise. but I cannot ask anymore from a 40 dollar set of IEM's. These things are absoulutely amazing for the...

I just accepted that they would not stay seated and the seal wasn't perfect. some tunes is better than none. however these new soundmagic e30's sit flush in my ear and should work great inside my helmet. my helmet is the Shark RSR 2 and it has no special spots for earbuds.   there was some...

I have finally found the sound I want. I tried the large silicon tips with the small holes. seal is much better and so is the bass. clean, deep, and low.   I checked out the sansa clip+ and I may use it. I cannot get the rock box mod on my ipod nano 4g. All of my music is in ALAC. so I may...

my biggest fear on the bike is of wild animals. I primarily ride on back roads where there is little traffic. the only thing im worried about hearing is the wind as im not going to hear a deer that is about to jump out in front of me. riding in the city, well I don't care for it and I try to...

I apologize. I see now what you are talking about.   the e30's come with 6 pairs of silicone tips. s/m/l with a large barrel opening and a s/m/l with a large barrel opening all silicone single flange. they are supposed to come with a pair of double flange silicone tips as well; however, they...

actually I was using the largest tips. however I switched to the large tips with the smaller barrel opening and I got a better seal along with way better bass performance.   so far I am very impressed with the performance of these headphones.

yes i did. it helped, however the housings seem to be flush in my ear before i get a seal. im hoping to get soundmagic to send me the double flange tips or buy myself something better. maybe a foam tip? comply's i think is a brand i have read about here

ive received my new IEM's... :)   however im having troubles getting a good seal. they did not come with the double flange ear pieces that the box says they should have. I did email soundmagic's customer support to see if they can send me some.   question is do you think they will help...

hello all,   I just wanted to say thanks for the replies. here was my first post.   "hello fello head-fiers,   I have  been lurking here for a while and am finally looking to get a new set of IEM's. I currently have a pair of (go ahead and laugh) skull candy inked earbuds. they were...

I am a new member, however i have been lurking for a while researching a better sounding IEM. In my search I have found a lot of hate about certain manufacturers equipment.  I find it to be a serious turn off. I truely believe that there is alot of useful information here and im sure many...

what a pair of soundmagic e30's for 40 bucks shipped from amazon? much lower and overall a very high rated headphone for sound quality. i ordered mine, however they shipped the wrong ones. they did make it right by overnighting me the correct pair. ill have them tomorrow. cant wait.

I work in construction as a master electrician. ive used ear buds on occasion on the job. i used the inked buds for the cheap price and tolerable sound. the best part is the lifetime warranty. i have had 3 pairs replaced over the last 5 years. now they have the inked 2 buds that i must say sound...

I myself am looking for some IEM's. I have been riding for years and enjoy the music over tiring wind noise out in the boonies. I feel the music helps to keep me alert. At 80mph on my Busa I am either wearing earplugs or my skull candy s. I'm looking for a serious upgrade to my sound that will...

Anybody have any advice

hello fello head-fiers,   I have  been lurking here for a while and am finally looking to get a new set of IEM's. I currently have a pair of (go ahead and laugh) skull candy inked earbuds. they were cheap and sounded good enough to get tore up on a construction site. anyhow im looking to get...
