What's odd is that I can still hear sound when they're plugged in, but sounds similar to an out of phase issue. Has to be a simple answer.

Just got a new set of wires for my livewire IEM's, and they sound like garbage now. Definitely a technical issue. However, when I pull the connector from the jack ever so slightly so that it sits there somewhat loosely, it sounds fine. I've tried with multiple sources and have the same problem...

This thing does not pass the sniff test. Who's going to go to the trouble of designing and building a super high end player, but then alienate 99% of your potential market by crippling it with a paltry 4gb of memory?

iPod Classic 160gb --> LOD (from Warrior05 of Head-Fi) --> Ibasso T2 (velcro'd to the back of the iPod) --> Livewires

$500 / 32gb = $15.625/gb $350 / 160gb = $2.1875/gb I know it's not exactly a fair comparison, but flash is still a hefty premium.

I fly frequently and see lots and lots of Bose QC's. Ugh. Does that count?

I'm with the OP. Flash is nice, but storage capacities are still not enough for me. I received a 16gb flash player as a gift and tried to convince myself it was enough. I loved the benefits of flash, but it got really annoying only having 1/10 of my music available. Most times, I don't know...

I must be the only guy on the internet with ear wax I cleaned 95% of it by carefully using a paper clip. I might give that jodi vac gizmo a shot, but there's surprising little information out there on it. Think it's worth $70?

Anyone? No?

So I've had my livewires for awhile and usually wear them 15+ hours/week. Cleaning has become progressively more frustrating as more wax makes its way into the openings. I'm fairly particular, but there's just no avoiding a little wax. How can I clean this out? The included cleaning tool...

Can we start a club? I got mine today. Clear/clear combo. I believe mine has the resistor built into the cable. I haven't had the chance to test it with a high quality source, but I still have a little hissing with my old school DAP and laptop headphone jack. I think I'll try an in-line...

I received my custom IEM's today, and while I find them to be outstanding, I am definitely having hiss issues with my DAP and laptop headphone jacks (no external amp). Several have recommended using an in-line attenuator. I think I understand the general concept of how they work, but am...

I use AnyDVD and CloneDVD Mobile from Slysoft. I've used everything and the slysoft stuff is my favorite. All it takes is a few clicks.

Alright alright. This wasn't intended to debate the uselessness of a video-centric pda with only a tiny pinch of storage space. How hard is it to replace hard drives? That cowon looks awesome. Is there a US release date?

I thought the announcement was missing a zero (shouldn't capacity be 160gb, not 16gb??), but I guess it's true. I'm going to refrain from ranting too much, but that leaves me without a clear choice. What are some players with specs closer to what the ipod touch should have been? -Decent SQ...

I'm thinking Ipod touch will receive a hard drive in 6-12 months. Thanks, Steve.
