Ultimate Ears posted a video a couple of years ago (the video is dated 2009) showing people how they make each and every custom IEMs. I didn't know this video existed until today, when Logitech re-posted the video to their Twitter account. It's a good in depth look at the various steps involved...

This post seems... somewhat out of place, since it's not a review or anything... or even a fully detailed impression. I had a bit of time to audition some UE customs today, of course, these are the universal version, so the sound would be a little bit off from a fully custom version.   The...

If you take nothing else away from this review, this is probably the most important piece: UE 900 is an amazing IEM in almost every single technical way possible. Also to be noted, UE 900 is not really a "successor" to the TripleFi, it is an entirely different beast. I think this actually puts...

Yup, I haven't posted in ages... My Sensaphonics 2X-S finally died. Specifically.. just the right side. I think it's due to many years of forceful tugging on the wires into the right driver. I had this habit of twisting and pulling the right driver out of my ear when I needed to talk to...

I still use my Sensaphonics 2X-S for almost all my day-to-day listening. However, since I got an iPhone, I really love to have that in-line mic/remote that came with the crappy Apple earbuds. I ordered a Shure Musicphone Adapter, but those things are back-ordered for who knows how long. Even...

~Looks around~ Hey folks who may have missed me or not... or those who remember me at all. I've had a pretty busy past two years or so (that's probably about the last time I posted anything at all). Job changes, family situations that required a few flights and visits. New job, busy life in...

I've been considering whether or not to get the Audigy 4 Pro for.. mostly gaming purposes. I really haven't played games in a while.. but recently got really addicted to World of Warcraft... Just thought maybe instead of using onboard Realtek sound, it's time for me to get another soundcard...

My A1000 pads just came in today, and immediately I put them on my A900. They do feel very different.. I don't know if I would say it's really more "comfortable". The pads itself is made from a higher quality, thicker pleather; and the pad is a little firmer and thinner than the stock A900 pads...

Recently there has been a few Head-Fiers who found other sources of acquiring the Sensaphonics 2X-S outside of United States. I was a little bit cautious and also concerned about the legitimacy of these other sources. I contacted Sensaphonics to ask them to clarify the association of...

So, here goes the story: About a few weeks ago, I started noticing that on the left side of my CD3000, I'm getting this weird buzz/resonance when certain notes are being played. At first, I thought it might have been a piece of hair, so I did the best I could to remove the pad, examine the...

My CD3000 has started "rattling" in the left driver recently, especially when playing certain frequencies... I suspect that it could be something stuck in the driver, or simply that the driver is ready to go out. I tried taking it apart, but the screw's on simply too tight, couldn't get them...

As a follow-up to the "Most Purchased Headphone on Head-Fi"... This poll is dedicated to canalphones only. Let me know if you have any additions to this list.

Inspired by this thread: http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=91852 I thought it would be interesting to see what are the most purchased Headphone on Head-Fi. It doesn't matter if you owned them at one point and no longer owned the, you bought them from another Head-Fier...

REVIEW: Ultimate Ears UE5c To preface this review, I think it's important to relay some of the events that led up to my acquirement of the UE5c; if for nothing other than historical accuracy. A few weeks ago, I found that my UE-10 Pro with full-soft material had experienced significant...

It seems that a lot of sports programs, such as NFL and NBA broadcasts, have all adopted using this particular headphone... http://www.sennheiserusa.com/newsite...transid=003373 That's one, really, really expensive headphone.. hahahaha.. I can see how they work well though, HD25's...

Just wanted to see if anyone else is noticing what I just found on my UE-10 Pro. For the past few weeks I literally haven't touched them much at all, they've been doing nothing but sitting in their box stored away. The other day me and my friend were talking about it, I took them out of the box...

First, I have to apologize for not getting this review out sooner. I've been way too busy with other work lately, and chose to just put this on the back burner until I have got some time freed up. RH5ma was a hot topic of debate for a little while. There were very few experiences with them...

This is another one of my "clarification" threads. In a couple of posts people have asked about what type of amping is needed for the 2X-S and UE-10 Pro, and how much it improves on the sound of each IEM. The answer to that question is pretty complex, and in a few posts here and there I probably...

Comparison: Sennheiser HD650, Sensaphonics ProPhonic 2X-S & Ultimate Ears UE-10 Pro This will be a relatively short write-up on a comparison that was recently conducted in courtesy of iamdone's equipment. He was very curious on which one of these IEM's, 2X-S or UE-10 Pro, would be a better...

By now, we all know how Ultimate Ears has been advertising its "flat curve" as the holy grail of sound for quite a while now. However, the fact remains that no other headphone manufacture even claims that flat curve is the way to make headphones. Today I went to my audiologist to pick up my new...

Apparently what happened, is when UE was making my UE-10 Pro, they ran out of stock on the 62" (or was it 60"?) cord... so they sent me the shorter cord instead. This is why the cord length between the UE-10 and the 2X-S were almost the same. However, they forgot to mention that particular...

PICTURES: ProPhonic 2X-S and Ultimate Ears UE-10 Pro So the other day, a relatively new Head-Fi member, kdb650, came over to my place. He was curious about both the Ultimate Ears and the Sensaphonics IEMs. I invited him over, so that at least, even if he can't fit them into his ears...

It seems like there's several reported problem with the new 4th gen iPod, using firewire connection on Windows platform. I couldn't get any of the firewire sync to work, it will start writing to the iPod, and the iPod will promptly freeze. Now I've got it connected via USB 2.0, and everything...

I noticed in a couple of unrelated threads, there seems to be some idea of that some comparison of CD3000 and UE-10 has been made. I haven't seen other members making this comparison, so I thought this might have risen from some of the comparison that I've made. I've only compared CD3000 and...

Yeah, I've been having a lot of separation anxiety lately. I sold the A900 a while ago, thinking that I just didn't have a need for it anymore. "Need" is a far distance away from "want" though, I still miss the A900 a lot for office use, and using my 2X-S is not always convenient in the office...
