    Custom ACS with Etymotic Mc5?

    Hi All,   First post here, and I have to say I am very impressed with this site.  There is a lot of information here, so I thought I would sign up and ask my questions here since you guys know the best.   I have been using the Etymotic er6i for years now (2 seperate pairs that both...

    Deal Alert

    I am on some sort of Ety rebirth bender (had the MC5s, now have the ER4P/S), and like the 4P/S so much decided to look into the HF2s (iPhone version of HF5). Amazon.com has the black pair for $111 shipped. I ordered a pair, because I may decide on using them with my Touch, not sure. Anyway, the...

    Etymotic MC5 vs. RE0/RE2... An amateur's comparison

      Just received my Etymotic MC 5s...   Coming from a long love-hate relationship with head-direct, love because sound is unbelieveable, Whilst quality control, durability, etc. is rather poor.  Brief history: Bought RE2s about a year ago, right side went completly mute, RMA'd, got a...

    Looking for Advice on a Purchase ($80 and under)

    Hello,   I know I'm new to the forums and everything, and my first post is also one asking for advice rather than helping, but I really need some advice.   So I've been using Creative EP-630's for the last year, went through approximately two of them (possibly three in a 1.5 year span?)...

    Another "Which headphones should I buy?" thread

    My budget is roughly $75. I could go slightly higher if the quality warrants it. A 16gig Ipod Touch will be the primary source of music, but I will also use a Shuffle when I work out. Very rarely do I use my PC for any headphone listening. I'd prefer headphones that can be powered by these...

    IEM's, under $80, loud guitars, gym. Pretty please!

      I'm sorry to do this, I've just read through about 467 threads that all helped in one way or another so I promise that I'm not just being lazy!   I'm upgrading my headphone collection, and have ordered some Phiaton PS320s for everyday use, and now have approx $80 to spend on upgrading my...

    Want New IEM's with a $150 budget

    I've been using AL im701's as of lately and I love their sound, but I'm looking to maybe get something different. I was looking a lot into ety's (since im701's should have more or less the same characteristic sound) mc5 or hf5. Also, though I know people on this forum tend to love the RE...

    Help me choose in ear workout headphones: budget $60-200

    So I've been doing research on in ear headphones for weeks and still haven't made up my mind.  I'm looking for headphones that:   1.  Fit very well and snug.  I will be running and working out with these headphones mostly.  Probably use them for biking to class as well.  Probably want the...

    Etymotic MC5 worth the extra $30 over the ER6i?

    What the title says, in all my searching I haven't yet found an answer.... EDIT: Wow, I just found them for the same price. Nevermind.   Is either better than the other? If there really are less microphonics on the MC5 I might get that.

    Can't Decide Which IEM To Buy

    I want to buy a new pair of ear-canal headphones after a friend of mine screwed up my Sennheiser CX 300 II Precision pair. I was able to use it for a brief period and I was "content" with them, because it was my first Sennheiser earphones and I expected a bit more. Now I'm thinking if I should...

    klipsch S4, Fiio E5, Ety MC5, Ety er6i

    Some of this is probably obvious to the more experienced folks here, but I would like to share my impressions anyhow for anyone who is relative novice like me.   I am working with limited budget and am currently in the process of selecting betwen Klipsch S4 and Ety MC5 (awaiting arrival)...

    Ety MC5

    UPS man just delivered a red pair. I bought them out of curiosity. Stuck on a pair of UM56 custom sleeves, and these phones are very, very nice, but a lot more listening and tips to try. Also, may need a little bass EQ, but the mids and highs are Ety all the way, nice phones.

    Which iem should I get for under $90?

    I mostly listen to electro and bass oriented music but I appreciate some balance for my audio, i was listening to them with my a-jays three until the jack for the a-jays started breaking, so now I'm looking for a new pair of iem's for around $90 and under.   So far I've seen positive reviews...

    IEM recommendation - what are the current favorites?

    Although I've been a member for awhile, it's unusual for me to actually post anything related to headphones these days, because I've been very content and satisfied with my gear.  That said, I'm looking for some reasonably priced (around $70.00 budget) IEMs that satisfy the following criteria...

    Affordable IEMs, canalphones, or earbuds

    Hi all,   I'm looking for a portable pair of earphones that I can use on an airplane, as well as take to the hospital with me in about a week.  My third and final pair of PX-100s just broke (as much as I like the sound, I wouldn't buy another anyway as the quality control was crap).  Cheaper...

    Etymotic MC5

    The Etymotic mc5 are a new line of colourful headphones that have a few features that make it rather unique. With a stylish look, the earbuds produce high-quality sound as they use passive-noise isolation that's similar to other noise-isolation headphones. Along with being very comfortable as...
