Hello everyone, So my new IEM's are going to arrive soon(Brainwavz B2's) and since my main use of them will be on my desktop computer and that old thing only got his onboard sound card, I would like to purchase an Amp/DAC since this PC can't really handle any of it. I know that the B2's are...

Hi,   I'm in the market for some IEMs, however I live in South Korea and the differences in choice and price can be huge compared to the U.S or Europe. So, rather tell you what my budget is, it's probably better to tell you what I've found out I can afford after doing a little research.  ...

which one is better? and why  :) i have a hisound studio 3rd anniversary to drive the hifiman re262, i figured with the right amp power it would outperform alot of iems at its price range

Hi! I want to buy a new set of buds, for about 100€ (i can spend a little more if the buds worth it :D) I'l be using them every day for go to the university, and they will be with me all the day so I'm searching for something that can endure some abuse with a sturdy cable(or a replaceble one)...

===== February 2014 EDIT (same question) =====   Original post was in November 2012 (when I thought I lost my IEMs). Now, in February 2014, I surely lost my Etymotic HF2's. The cables were on two parts torn already, but I enjoyed the Etymotics for 4 years. So I need something new.   However...

HI, i am new to this forum and have been wondering about a question. I originally decided on buying the updated s4i (ii) model for its better flat line cable design for 100 bucks, but I've found a really good price for the older s4i model ($65) and was wondering if the price difference was...

There has been so much hype about the MH1Cs that really got me thinking, are they really that good that they compare to headphones like the B2s and Gr07s, or are most people who have purchased these never heard other IEMs other than the $30 stuff you find at Best Buy and RadioShack and have...

So I'm new to head-fi after lurking around the forums many times. I'm a student and looking for a new IEM, I currently use Shure SE215s which a bought about a year or so ago and I'm just looking for something with a different sound signature(grown tired of the same sound ). So from what I've...

Hello everyone,   I am new to Head-Fi but it seems everyone here knows a lot about music, headphones, and sound quality, so I thought this would be the perfect place to ask my question.    There are some $100 in ear headphones I have been looking in to at my local stores, all of them are...

The B2s are nice analytical headphones, but I feel I could get a little bit more out of them if I used different eartips. The Comply tips aren't as snug into my ears as I wished for them to be, the Klipsch oval tips don't work well either when on the B2s, and the silicone tips that came with the...

What headphones/IEM's would you guys say are "Fun" to listen to?   So far I have owned:   Etymotic ER-4S   Spyder Realvoice   Superlux HD 668B   PX-100   Philips SHE3850   Of those, the only two with "fun" sound signatures were the PX-100 and the Philips SHE3850. The...

I finally got a job (yay ) but with this job come problems. I have had my Sennheiser HD598, which I love with all my heart, and Sennheiser HD25 II, which is amazing for on the go but is not comfortable for hours on end, for quite some time now. I have been using the HD25 at the office but it...

I would like to find new desktop equipment for IEMs. I would like a big step up from Sansa Fuze.   They are not necessary to be portable, nor battery-powered, but USB connection is a must for DAC.   Since I have a Brainwavz B2 and a Vsonic GR07, I would like to find something on the whole...

I am in the market for a new pair of IEMs. I listen mostly to Jazz (Apple lossless files) and will be using an iPhone 3GS as a source (and amp?). I have never owned IEMs, but I guess I am more on the analytical side (and if some coloration is necessary, I would opt for the warm+sweet) and plan...

hello I'm looking for some in-ears to buy time for Christmas .. I have researched a bit and came up with some models Brainwavz B2 VSonic GR-07 Phonak Audeo PFE-112 Yamaha EPH-100 Atomic Floyd-superdarts Sony xba-2 I hope you give me some help to choose the right thing for my case Thank you

Hey everyone,   First, if this post doesn't belong in this portion of the forum, please let me know and move it to where it belongs and, my apologies in advance. Second, thanks to anyone who reads this and double thanks to anyone who actually responds.   So I'm looking for an IEM under...

Hey guys I'm looking to upgrade from my klipsch s4s but I'm having trouble deciding what I want. I have narrowed it down to the B2 and GR07. From what I have searched on the forums, the gr07 are slightly better. The thing is, the B2 are on sale for $100 vs the $160 GR07 on ebay. Is the...

Just wondering if there are any durability changes from the image s4i first generation? How is its overall compared to the image s4i rugged. I might buy one, but don't want it to collapse in a year.:cool:

After disasterious experiences with the Klipsch Image S4 (I purchased two because one broke, and now the other one broke and am too lazy to fix the headphone jacks), then sticking to my Image S2s that I had for a long time because I spent my money on the ATH-M50s and HD 598, I have come to the...

I've been looking through Joker's and ClieOS' reviews for several days now, but every time I latch onto a pair of IEMs, no matter how hard I try and believe they are "the ones," I always manage to be convinced otherwise by price, bass-emphasis, defects, availability, or general dislike among the...

I'm currently using a Sansa clip+ and FiiO E11, and looking to upgrade from my Brainwavz M4s, I've set a budget of £100 ($160) but I can't make a decision and would like some opinions, my music preferences are varied, I listen to just about everything except rock/metal, emphasis on vocal...

after long hours of research i've narrowed down to these 3 IEMs but i don't know which one is the best because they all seem really similar and there wasn't much comparisons between these headphones. what i'm looking for is a good balance on all 3 frequencies ,but i slightly favor towards mids...

Hi guys, i've recently lost my Aurvana IEM 2, and i need a new pair of IEM.  Budget is 200$, but i can also spend something less. XD After some months reading every thread and review here, I'm still unable to take a decision, so, I'm in your hands.   I listen mostly to post-rock...

I thought i would treat myself to some decent headphones (2 pairs actually). Music is my passion so i thought why not invest in something to take my listening experience to the next level I have a budget of £200 (+/- £20 if its worth the extra funds) and with that I would like to get 2 pairs. 1...

I've been enjoying my S:flo2 -> Leckerton UHA-4 -> Etymotics ER-4S with custom mold for a couple of years now. I am very happy with this rig.   Anyway since these days most of my listening is on the go I am considering to improve the rig... you know that typical upgrade itch...   In the...
