Heya!, Im finding some good Bang for the Buck! IEMs, i primary listen to rock, some techno, soft rock..., The primary use for the IEMs is while im relaxing (or sleeping) so they must be very comfortable..... Thanks in advance guys

Two years ago i bought a pair of etymotic hf5 headphones, i'm no sound expert but i found their sound clear and enjoyable although a bit too soft on the bass department. In the last few months signs of wear began to appear on the headphones, my dad replaced the connector which fixed the...

First off I must say I love this site! I'm just a lurker here, but have gained alot of very helpful insight and direction here regarding the headphone aspect of my audio addiction .   I come asking help about which IEM I should choose. My current IEM's, some Monster Turbine Pro's need to be...

So I currently have the Sennheiser CX470 and am looking to upgrade, I am looking at the Ultimate Ears 600,:   http://ue.logitech.com/en-us/earphones/ue600   Will those give me a much better sound quality? My main concern is clarity over anything else.   The they have these which look...

Hi, I've been reading around the forum a bit and looked at the gear section but I decided to make an account to ask a question. I'm going to be traveling for round an hour each day by bus or by bike. I want a new pair or earphones for the journey and general listening. My budget is roughly $100...

So my monster turbines broke today after a year so i decided to try out something new in the $100 or less range. I loved my turbines, althought they dont really classify as a balanced sound but it was very BASS HEAVY thus making me love em. I wana try out something new or similar to my...

Hi guys, I have some decent full-sized headphones for use at home (Ultrasone Pro 900, AKG K240, Audio Technica D40fs) but when traveling, I use a cheap pair of Sennheiser CX300-II which is possibly a fake.   I'm willing to spend $150US at the most. I already have a couple of portable...

Hey guys, I've been looking around the forums in search for earbuds to replace my AKG K319s. I've noticed that the Earbud types (not the ones that go inside your ear canal) are quite 'underappreciated'. Threads about this topic were dated a quie while ago. I liked my AKG K319s, but the cables...

Hiya! This is my first post here, but I been looking around here for a week before joining!    Lets get down to business, I'm pretty much content with the q701 and would love to be able to have some IEM's with similar sound signature. Yeah, q701 is a bit big to take out often... I will not...

Hey All,   So before you get any further, yeah, this is a recommendation thread.  Share your thoughts if you want, I know these are the scum of the Head-Fi earth, but Im in a crazy headphone bind and need your help.   I was/am the happy owner of a pair of first gen DBA-02s that I bought...

Hi.   I've been searching for new IEMs, neutral, sturdy, w/ good isolation, and my choice has been narrowed down to these :   Etymotic HF5 and Hifiman RE-ZERO.   I can get each one for the same price (~90 euros)   I can't really decide despite reading several reviews. What would...

Hi guys, I'm sorry if this was suppose to go into one specify thread but I couldn't find it. I'm looking for an IEM under $100. My focus is on mid and high, however I do wish for some bass. I was amazed by Re0 reviews, but never got around to buying it. Is it still worth buying in 2012? ...

Hi, my MEElectronics CC51 IEM's just broke. I really loved them and I am wondering if there is anything with the same sound qualities as the CC51's, but maybe improved. I love the way that they're detailed, but you don't hear every instrument as distinctly as on RE0's so you don't get tired of...

Hello, I am sort of new to the high end in ear headphone category,  recently I have gotten an iPhone so I want to buy the best pair of headphones for my music, phone calls, ect.    I mainly listen to rap music and rock (mainly Eminem and bands like guns n' roses).  Although I have found...

I have an old pair of Bose ear buds (the generation before the IE2) that I'm currently looking to replace. I really liked the mids on them, but I was disappointed in the lack of highs and the somewhat confined soundstage, so I'm trying to find something under $150 that represents an upgrade (in...

Coming from the image S4s how will the XBA 1s compare? I dont use my IEMs for much music mostly movies and stuff, and some occasional music(when I'm on the go, use my headphones for music mostly). Either way how are the XBA 1s? And how do they compare to the Monster Turbines?   Also anyone...

Hi, I was wondering if anybody can help me out pick a great portable headphone for commuting. My price range is from 60 to 100. The headphones I am looking at are the Vsonic GR06 Hifi man RE0 and the Shure se 215. I have the audio technica M50 and would prefer a sound close to that( I cant use...

RE0s in terms of comfort and feel in the ear?   I only use two different IEMs, the RE0 and the TripleFi 10s, but would now like to upgrade to something that sounds better than the TripleFi, and more importantly, feels like if not better than the RE0 while in the ear.   I like the...

My budget is around £100 GBP, I am looking for some good earphones but I have no idea where to start to look, could anyone help me in finding some for my price, thanks so much in advance!

Everyone agrees in this. I don't understand. Something about air? Why is air so important?  Is that necessary?

Even though the turbines are 180$ on Monster's website, they are 80$ on Amazon. They have relatively great reviews and I figure, if i can get them 100 $ less than what they are priced at, why not. If it makes a difference i listen to metal music such as Children of Bodom, Amon Amarth, Slayer...

My current top 3 are   GR06 RE0 Klipsch S4 Brainwavz M2   Any help deciding or new suggestion would be greatly appreciated.    My past IEMs are Nuforce N6's and Dunu 12's.

Over the past week or so, I've been looking for headphones to replace my recently broken Thinksound Rains. At the moment, the VSonic GR06 IEMs and the HeadDirect RE0 IEMs are at the top of my list. However, I don't really know if either of these are the best choice. My limitations are a $100...

Hello,   I've decided that I want to give the monster turbines a shot, but I have noticed they go for a bit of money. I was wondering where would the cheapest place to get them at without getting scammed? I've heard of people getting them for like 50$ but they never disclosed where they got...

Here's my list:   1.  How do you get it to shuffle.  Did it accidentally once; but back to repeat now.   2.  How high does the volume go?  I could barely take 29 yesterday.  Let it run all night.  29 is only just above normal now.  I can only get it up to 31.  Don't tell me that is the...
