    Senn CX300 alternative

    I just got the PL21 from focalprice.com at 21€ with shipping. I think I am getting the NE-6 aswell if I can get them for a similar price.

    Senn CX300 alternative

    Thanks for the input guys. I am in between the NE-6 and PL21s. Just one last thing, besided the quality of sound, are these buds sound-isolating, at least at the same level of the CX300s. I should be safe getting either the NE-6 or PL21 from eBay right? or is it like with the CX300s that you...

    Senn CX300 alternative

    Hello there, it's been a looong time since I last posted. I've been using Sennheiser's CX300 for about two years now and I'm very happy with them. As source I mainly use my laptop and a Meizu M6. The thing is these buds are starting to break apart, and I wanted to get something very...

    Meizu M6 + Shure e2c a good overall combo?

    The E2Cs are excellent companion to the Meizu M6, i have this setup. However I also use a pair of CX300 and even when they are bassier, they sound pretty good paired with the M6. The M6 is an excellent buy, here in Spain it's as hard to get as in Slovenia I guess, but via eBay you get...

    Shure E2C broke, need earphone recommendation

    Well yeah, I was a bit concerned with that, but reading up on the seller's feedback calmed me a bit as it was very positive. My E2Cs are damaged for good, if I start moving the sound gets all distored.

    Shure E2C broke, need earphone recommendation

    Well, I am actually thinking of getting the E2Cs again ? maybe they solved the reliability issue with the cords. What other IEMs are on par with the E2C sound ?? er6i have the "clinical" sound, SuperFi 3 Studio ??? I think I am looking for a fun sound rather than anything else. anyone ?

    Shure E2C broke, need earphone recommendation

    Hello there, I just got a Meizu M6 PMP and have been using my E2Cs a lot more again, I got these about 3 years ago. I started noticing wierd noises and thought it was the PMP, ended up being a faulty Shure cord, right there where the actual earpiece bends... Anyhow, I love the E2C sound, I...

    Ultra-portable flash-based player?

    Pictures of your portable rig- Part V: Viva La Audio Revolution

    At 16 - 18 volume (it maxes out at 40) is more than loud enough for me when out on the street. Drives the E2Cs pretty well, believe I would give a more accurate and technical explanation if I knew the words to use . Anyhow, it's a winner, you won't regret getting it even as a second unit.

    iAudio U3

    I've been playing a little more with the U3 and I figured that it does have a pan feature when in Picture mode that allow you to navigate the image, I also tried encoding a CD to -q4 ogg and it plays perfect + tag displays ok. Regards,
