Hi everybody,   It's been a while i'm not chillin' up here, 'cuz i felt satisfied since i meet AT-Ck10. Still it's delightful to me, yet i'm whinning for one which has a little more bassy and uncolored sound. As i told, it's been some time i've read all top-tiers' reviews, now i want some...

I have been a loyal customer of Shure for 5 years.  I have dealt with the crappy build quality of the E4 and SCL4 because of their good support.  I have returned my phones for warranty replacement 4 times in 6 years.  I have always received a new retail package until today.  I sent in my fourth...

I've had my ER-4S headphones for probably about 9 years or so and have loved them this whole time, but I've either lost or damaged all of the eartips other than the gray 3 flange eartips, and I wanted to try the other ones, but the only options on the website at etymotic was to purchase 7 sets...

I only recently discovered the wonder of Etymotics's customer service for repairing their out of warranty product; As a result, I now have two pairs of brand new er4s now.  I want to sell one pair and buy something that complement it.  I love my Etys but they can get too bright sometime(maybe...

I'm planning on picking up an Audio-GD NFB-12 and am looking for a good headphone to use with it given my listening situation: - Indoor room otherwise quiet but with urban espressway 50 yards beyond double-paned windows producing traffic noise including occasional horns, clanging, trucks -...

Hello everyone,   I have been lurking the forums for quite some time and finally decided to join because of a pressing issue. I have decided, after much reading, to take the plunge and get custom molds for my Etymotic ER4-P IEMs. I have been having problems getting a good seal on my right...

Hi everyone,   I'm new here but I have recently gotten interested in high end headphones and the "audiophile" world, so to speak.  I have looked on these forums a few times for suggestions about products I should buy.  About a month ago, I purchased a pair of Etymotic ER4P earphones with the...

My daughter will be going to China/Hong Kong this winter.  Are there any deals on IEMs there that I should ask her to pick up for me?

I got my first pair of IEMs a month ago, the Etymotic HF5.  I have been very pleased with for use at work and on the go.  I enjoy its tight, detailed and very clear sound.  At home I use my bottlehead crack which is fantastic but sound poor on the 16ohm HF5s.  I looked at the ER4S which is 100...

I know - kinda apples and oranges - hard to compare over the ear headphones with in ear phones.  But there are times when the portability of the in ear headphones is desirable, along with their superior noise isolation.  e.g. Listening to headphones in public, I want something more discrete than...

hELLO gUYS: This is my very first post. I am in Chile by the way. I was looking on the internet about this headphones, and i did buy both of them waiting for the package to arrive. But... Can anyone tell me if they are a good pair of cans?. I do have in my small collection AKG 701, SH HD650...

Recently I've been looking at buying these. They are only ~$75 and got very good reviews on Amazon, but I can't seem to find anything on them. They would be replacing my default Apple earbuds. I'm primarily looking at either these or the typical RE0, but I've heard the RE0 has some...

Hey everyone, I have used this site for awhile researching for headphones.  I originally wanted a set of on ear headphones, and through researching on this site i came up with & bought the Denon AH-D1001.  Now my hobby is expanding and I really want/need a set of IEM's. I mainly listen to...

http://yogi-computers.com/headphonesetymotic.html   Since DBA-02's are no where to be found, I am interested in er-4p's.   This website is selling them for $178.50, while the rest of the internet is offering them for $250 plus. The website doesn't offer any names or contact information...

I will be buying an s:flo 2 soon and I know the s:flo 2 has a lot of dedicated amplifying components and a line out port, will it power the ER-4S nicely or will I get the bad sound they get when plugged into a stock player ?   P.S. This is my backup option because I can't get a pair of...

mp3 player: ipod touch music most frequently listened: classical/newage piano/instrumentals, jazz, underground hiphop, and current popular songs.    USE: listen to good quality music with good isolation. also, I need it for class (block out the lecturer so I can actually be productive). ...

I know there is quite a difference in price, but I am curious how they compare and contrast.  I currently own a hf5 but thinking about stepping up the ladder a bit.

I purchased the ER-4S a few years ago as my first step into quality audio.  I am the type of person who believes music should be uncolored by the playback equipment and should be highly detailed.  I was directed to the ER-4S in the IEM category and have been very happy with them.  However, I do...

I generally hear from most that ER4 have the reputation of having no soundstage, although some defend it as having one of the best soundstage. I always felt like what I liked most about it is how I feel like I got the front row seats of a live concert when I listen to a good live recording. I...

My name is Jennifer. I am using my husband's account. His birthday is coming up and his current earbuds are broken. I want to surprise him with new ones but am totally lost in what to get him. He has had Shure E2C's then switched to ER-4's and back to E2C. He likes the over the ear cable. But, I...

  I'm lookin at gettin a good quality set of  IEMs for use with my iphone 3gs and needed some advice.  basically new to the whole audio world, and i appreciate any advice.  on the recommendations of head-fi'ers, I recently got myself some denon d2000s and they are perfect for my listening...

I'm contemplating a new portable rig, and wondering which would be best, in terms of SQ and cost effectiveness/bang for the buck (not so much portability)  :   1) an all-in-one box, like a HiFiMAN HM-602.  Integrated storage, amp, and DAC. 2) a DAP with digital outs, and an amp/DAC with...

For the first time since I've received my ER4S, I just took the tips off to clean them, and when I look into the nozzle of the earphones, I noticed the left side has a white/light grey thing inside (i'm assuming that's the filter), and on the right side doesn't have anything inside. I just see a...

I've been told that these are great headphones for the price ($99 on sale) but im not so confident on them considering they are from china and and its not a big brand... there arent any videos reviews of it them either ive heard they are designed very cheaply and look bad which isnt that...

Hi all,   I'm looking for an analytical and neutral pair of earphones to complement my SM3. I owned the RE0 previously, didn't really like them as they were too "thin" sounding and had too little in the low end.   I understand the 2 phones i've listed wouldn't be much "thicker" than the...
