Saw a few pairs of ATH M50s out and about. Best thing I saw was a pair of Pro 900 on the head of a 50 odd year old guy.

The FA-003 Ti-W has been pretty good, I enjoy them a lot for acoustic&soundtracks but I far prefer my X1 + FX850 over them for the bulk of my listening. I listen mainly to Kpop, Jpop, Western Pop, Dubstep, DnB, House and trance. You could say I've turned out to be a moderate basshead, the FA-003...

Subbed. Cannot wait for some more impressions and reviews. Highly considering these as an upgrade over my Philips X1.

Been playing Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness recently, never knew of the old RTS games from back then. Really really simple of course, but very fun no doubt. Been having more fun mucking around with the map editor to be honest. 7/10 at the very least, considering the age and everything. Always...

God, never can get enough of these wood beauties. The soundstage for an IEM always amazes me. One of my favorite albums on these is Submotion Orchestra - Finest Hour, absolutely superb with these. I couldn't be any more happy with these for my pop stuff.

So far the impressions sound remarkably the same as my listening to my X1 - hopefully they are a substantial improvement and I'd instantly upgrade.   Detachable pads is the number one best thing ever about this, praying a replacement pad will be easily obtained.

I saw a kid with a Grado SR60 walking home from school.   Also was fortunate to see a Philips L1, ES10 and HD25.

The MDR 7520 already has improved bass over the Z1000.    Either way, will be interesting what sound signature it ends up with. Hopefully something not U shaped as that is already covered by Fostex, Ultrasone Sig DJ among others. 

  The new sony is a closed back based on what weve seen so far so not really a MA900 replacement. I think it is also quite pricy like a flagship price.

From looking at the link, they definitely look like OEM as I believe I've seen that design for sure somewhere - at least the exact headband/sliders as well as the fact it doesn't have a particular brand really. There are a few low priced gems out there, check out Jokers thread in portables to...

Good to hear that you are happy.   I'm satisfied with my Philips X1 off the Fiio, and I'm looking forward to trying the FA-003 Ti-W (Sapele) with it as well. Personally I just use the Fiio as a Dac/Amp with my mac.

Is this an infomercial or what? Does anyone get that vibe from the OP? No offence intended though.

Some of the tracks I test bass on        

BBQ memories are easily come by when your Australian, I think my first was nothing too special food wise. We had a kids party at the park and of course cooking an outdoor barbecue comes second nature to most Aussie parents I suppose. We had chops, sausages, burgers and all types of stuff cooked...

I went with the Sapele option as their website claims that is their best for bass. Not looking for basshead levels here though, I've got a Philips X1 and JVC FX850, any more bass would be overboard for me.   Quote: Feenix Aria is not released yet, maybe if the Aria succeeds we will see...

Aiaiai TMA-1 on ears, ATH M50 and a Black Momentum today on a train. The aiaiai looks very incognito.

Do the wood types have a strong effect on the sound signature like the Fischer site implies? So if I went with Sapele I should expect a fair bit more bass than Horbeam for example?   I might be getting a pair soon.

Pretty much all of it, I'd say 95% of it I've listened to. I only have about 40 GB worth of music in total, 20% in Flac the rest in 320kbs. Anything that I haven't listened to and I notice on my library I'd listen to, if I don't like it much or anymore - I get rid of it.

Interesting because I've been meaning to start Fallout 1 which I haven't began just yet.   I've revisited Duke Nukem 3d for a old nostalgia trip. I'd give the game a 8 for sheer fun of it, still love playing through today, the space missions were the most interesting overall. I kind of miss...

Amazingly I think I saw my first Ciem today, purple one but couldn't get a gauge on what company it would be.   Also saw Parrot Zik and a pair of Sony MDR 1R silver.

I just received my FX850 and have been listening for the last few hours from my Fiio X3. I find the smaller foam tips the best fit overall. I was very very shocked by how deep and strong the bass can kick on these. I was listening to some Zedd, Pendulum, Gramatik, Justice and assorted kpop and...

I'd get a PS4, mainly because of familiarity as well as the fact that non of the Xbox exclusives interest me that much.

I like the looks of the Oppo, TH900, W3000ANV, Philips X1, Shure 1540, FA-003 Ebony among others
