I'll say, for whatever it is worth, I still enjoy very much my MPX3, it really has a phenomenal sound IMHO with my old 580.    Of ourse if however it decides one day to stop working....oh well, I will have to trash it :)

I am so relieved to see that most understand.  So much b/s going on but when it gets to the level shown by googleli we got to say something.  It's an insult to everyone intelligence, merely idotic.   Don't get me wrong, I love all of those things, but mainly because they look cool :)  And I...

sorry my mistake !   I am the dumb one :)     I am talking about iem only though    Quote:  

what ?  I am so disappointed with the noise reduction I achieve with mine !!!  It's interesting to read about your experience, but I thought the general consensus was some noise reduction, but reallly mostly sounds are muffled down (I think that is the word) ....In my experience certainly not a...

yheaa right, that truly looks like an IEM, dumb !   Quote:  

this makes sense, but do you know such is indeed the case for F1 drivers ?  It would be great to find out who the makers are of these things, seems easy ...   I was wondering about this because by the mere look of it, those monitors seem to cover a much larger portion of the ear compared...

thx for no help and trust me I heard of google before, why would I post here !?  because google did not help doh.     Quote:  

dudes ?!?   Anyone has a clue ?   It looks like there one brand that seems to cater to F1, ACS which seems pretty good.

does anyone know what these guys are using ?  they all walk around with things that look like in-ears headphones, if they indeed are, they ought to be pretty good, at least in terms of noise reductions ....

please guys .... go to a meet ?!?!?!?  he is talking about customs ... that is the whole point.  You pretty much cannot truly audition these.   As to my opinion, in general customs are the way to go and just go for what you can afford. The more you spend, then better product you are most...

Quote: factors ?  may be but all related to your own fantasy :)   These expensive cables are a formidable joke, which is fine, except that the only ones laughing are the cable makers !  Well, I smile too when I run into threads like these.

I would just make sure you can home audition whatever you go for.  All the ones you mention are unlikely to produce decent improvements if at all.  But give your own ears a chance to make a wise decision since a lot depends on your other equipment.

So far I have sent them back once to JH for a refit; they seemed to know what was the problem. And they did but only in part. I still miss lower frequencies. So they suggested I get new impressions. And that is where I am now. I am going tomorrow to one of their recommended audiologist here in...

and tomorrow it's Don Giovanni, at NY City Opera ! DG is very special to me and I can't wait to see this production .... Le Nozze di Figaro will be at the Met, in a couple of weeks. Thank you guys for the wonderful ideas, I still have not decided of my next Figaro, but will do so soon...

oh yes, what I fabulous area !!! I am discovering this opera with such immense pleasure ! of course I sort of "knew" many of the pieces, but slowly piecing it all together is just another experience of beauty. But then I will counter...."porgi amor" such a condensed, little piece of...

thank Punk_g - Actually I heard the same about SACD not really going anywhere. So I went ahead and started with the R. Jacobs from HM, the non SACD version. Oh man, you mention hard drives .... it is a bit my nighmare these days, but it is indeed my intention to have all my music accessible...

Hi - great excuse to visit the EV, cd shopping ! I listen and enjoy most genres even though because of time constraints I tend to concentrate most on clAssical and opera. I will however also enjoy Daft Punk, Queens of the SA, or Black EP type of things, from time to time. So, I Am pretty...

right ! I had forgotten about J&R, probably because that store is so far from me. Will have to check Other Music. Thanks guys.
