Great, thanks! I'd love to know. I found the triple driver for $59.99 on sale. That's a price that's hard to beat, but it almost makes me worry that they are in the class of "cheap headphones", but I don't think that's the case. I think i'll give them a try unless anybody has any other...

Thanks for the recommendations. It seems people like the 1more triple driver more than the shure, although detachable cables would be nice. I see that 1more announced a quad-driver at CES that will be available the first quarter. I wonder if it will be worth double the price?

I am looking for a new set of in-ear headphones, preferable under $200. In the past, I had 3 sets of Nuforce NE-700X, which were always great, but fell apart within 6mo. I have been looking at the newer Optima NE800M, but I'm not sure if the build quality has improved.    My last set of...

Sorry for no updates. Since I started the search, I've upped my budget to around $200. There seem to be a lot of good offerings around that price point.   I already sold the xonar dx. I hope to get a laptop someday so I'll need a desktop unit anyway. I've literally spent days looking over...

I started a thread in the amp section about a week ago about this but I am now a little more enlightened and have increased my budget. I've spent all my spare time over the past week reading reviews and specs, and still can't decide between many.  The more I look, the more I like... It must...

Thanks for the help guys, looks like I might have to up my budget.  What are the favorite brands for a single amp/dac combo?  I feel like the fiio products aren't really made for desktop apps.   Edit:  Just looked at the e17 a little closer. It would be nice to have a portable dac.  Any good...

I need a little help with a new amp or maybe just a dac.  I've been using the xonar dx in my pc for about a year now and just recently I switched to the sennheiser hd 558 headphones.  The xonar dx card did not have a dedicated headphone amp in it, so I'm selling it now.  It did have a pretty...

Thanks for the quick reply. I do like bass but not too overpowering. To be honest, the only decent headphones I've ever owned are the nuforce iem's, so I really don't know how to compare all the options. I'm sure whatever I get I'll be very happy with. What I didn't mention is they must be...

Welcome guys! I've always loved reading some of the posts on here but now I have my own question. I am in need of a new pair of full size headphones for my pc. I went from a 5.1 setup to nuforce ne700x IEM's. They sound great but are annoying for constant pc use. I can't use speakers because...
