    Grado sr80i impressions & need more volume

    Hi all. I read many hundreds of Grado related posts when I was trying to decide between sr60i and sr80i. In he end I bought them both and sent the sr60i back and really for no particular reason, they both sounded great. I also have some bowl pads I'm using an iPhone 5, ipad 4 and Sansa clip. I...

    OK... I've read just about every relevant thread BUT I'm ready to push the button on a new DAP (ipod) for vacation next week & need some quick opinions. I'm currently using a Clip with ETY HF5 as a work out/all around setup. I'm happy with the SQ. Mt daughter has an ipod Touch 2G and I LOVE...

    Anyone still usin' UE Super.Fi 5 Pros?

    I recently sold a pair of UE SF3 that I owned for about 1 yr. I bought & re-sold Shure scl3 & scl4 to replace them. I didn't necessarily dislike either, just looking for something different out of boredom and neither really blew me away. Then I stumbled on a deal at buy.com for Altec Lansing...

    UE clear replacement cable L/R unmarked..help

    Hi all. I just received a clear UE replacement cable for my UHP336 & the L/R channels are not marked on the cable. I know which channel is L/R from the source/song but I'm not sure how to determine whether or not they are in phase. Maybe just me but I can't hear a huge difference. There is a...

    Sound "signature" similar to Zen Xtra?

    Hey all. While demoing Shure E3 and E4, I found the sound of my 1G Ipod Shuffle to be harsh at times annoying. Not wanting to give up on the Shures, I picked up a used Zen Xtra 30GB and the sound is better, warmer flat and even better with "rock" EQ. I use my portable mostly for working out &...

    I've tried every Shure and I'm not sure

    The E2C was my 1st real iem and I've been pretty happy with them. I understand from reviews and my own listening that they have their faults. I tried to "upgrade" to UM1 a while back and ended up going back to the E2 as I thought the Um1 had weaker bass and irritating highs. I can't describe...

    E500 and 1st gen nano good combo?

    I'm still waiting for my e500s but I am also on the market for a new player. I'm currently using 1st gen shuffle which I understand may give me some unwanted hiss with e500. I hear the 2nd gen nano is a step down from the 1st gen is SQ so I'm thinking about picking up a 4 GB 1st gen nano. Any...
