Just got the Holy Serpent V9 thanks to @1clearhead. Initial impressions: Very good IEM for the price. Bass is pretty much neutral, less than my ATH-IM70s. Mids are emphasised and sound a bit forward, less forward than the IM70s but more than my X.Pistons. Treble is nice and splashy although...

Ah oops, my bad.    Well, I did say that Aliexpress has those, I was just trying to give a tip.    Sorry I guess 

NVX XPT100 or Shure 440? I'd be very wary of those cheaper Takstars on aliexpress because they it is known that aliexpress have scammers/fakes. I'd advice you to go with the more expensive sellers that have good/more feedback.   Edit: Just saw that the $51 Takstars have good amount of...

Sounds okay actually o.o. Except for that guitar screech? at 1:23. I think I'm just sensitive to sounds that quite a lot of air going through small holes at high pitch. E.g. Whispers, Whistles. Especially hate people blowing their recorders at the highest pitch. Uck.  

Man, my ears are certainly hard to please. It's a pity, I really like the bass with the silicone tips, I guess I'll try the Sony Hybrids and Piston's tips when they arrive, with the IM70. By the way, did you take off the filters on the IM70? Thanks for the help  

I feel like the silicone tips fits me better than the foam tips though. It's even more firm than the foam tips that move easily for me. Maybe I'm just sensitive to that particular freqs 

I tried listening on both my laptop and iPhone so the EQ problem is crossed out. Even checked my spotify EQ, it was on... switched it off and there was no difference. Not even placebo wants to help me think it sounds better!     Could you try this song? The sibilance comes out especially when...

Where did you get it in Australia? Looking to buy one for myself :D

I've been crossing between the SHE3590 tips and the Comply Foam tips. The Comply Tips take away the annoying sibilance on the "s" sounds, but the bass is compromised. The silicone tips have more bass but have the sibilance. Is there any way to take away the sibilance without using the foam tips...

Anyone know how much these cost to manufacture approximately? Read the thread and saw http://tw.taobao.com/item/39598811470.htm?spm=a1z3o.7406521.0.0.oFNMdp at 358 RMB. But there's another one http://tw.taobao.com/item/42693692669.htm?spm=a1z3o.7406521.0.0.oFNMdp at 88 RMB with x3 feedback. Most...

+1 for SHE3590 tips. The comply tips took some of the bass out which I didn't like. The earphones hurt my ears after a few hours of listening though.

Just got mine. But hmmm? Initial impressions with the comply tips: Nothing really special. Just a bit better than my SHE3590 (LOL). Will wait for burn in and try tip rolling later Edit: Just realised Red is for Right. I feel stupid now

I'm using the taobao link. It's 118 rmb which is roughly 20 usd

Wow, detachable cables for $20? Damn. I'll be jumping on these ones

I have never heard of the HS-V9 O.O Care to provide a link? I don't really want to use these for the gym, was just asking about the build quality and quoted Voicemaster saying they would be okay at the gym, so I guess the build quality is pretty good. 

I do have the TTPODs :D They sound great, but not to my taste. I think I figured that I might be a more Vocal/Mids person rather than one who loves bass.

Ran into problems with shipito so I can't get them with any cheap economy shipping rates which leads me to use Taobao which is more expensive. Just a question, for 40 AUD (30USD), do you guys think the build quality is good enough to last for a good amount of time?    Edit: I did read...

"They re on taobao. Just do a search. http://h5.m.taobao.com/awp/core/detail.htm?id=19655857098"    Saw that already, just wanted to see if there was anywhere else, thanks anyway. I guess I'll use a mail forwarding service in US for Amazon since Taobao is almost x2 the price

Anyone know where to get these in Australia? Can't find them anywhere aside from Amazon

Joker hasn't heard 3 of them. I guess I will cave in to the Head Fi way. My wallet will not like the path I've chosen! 

Hey guys, I'm looking for a pair of IEMs and have shortened them down into a list and need some advice on which one I should purchase. Honestly, I was looking at only the Vsonic VSD3s but these threads on Head Fi gave me so many other choices. So here's a small list    - MOE SS01  - Zero...
