    Replacement Silicon Tips for Hippo 10EBs?

    Hello, how's it going? I recently got a pair of Hippo 10EBs, and unfortunately the medium sized red tip that came with it had a slice or rip in it.

    Can't decide which earphones to get

    Hi, my Westone UM1 just broke and time for me to replace it to use with my iPhone (No Amps) I listen to all sorts of music, but would preferably have an earphone which is more analytical with good emphasis on clarity of singer's voice. After many hours spent on reading reviews and surveying, I...

    Hippo-10 trade

    I have a pair of Hippo-10s that I am looking to trade for something for a bass-head. I would like a pair of Sony MDR-XB500, but will consider anything you got. They are in excellent shape. I can post pics if interested. For some reason I can't post in the for sale/trade forum

    Hippo Headphones Review - Finally!

    I'm finally getting around to review Hippo headphones, the Shroom and the VB. Just FYI, I love hippos, and I love the company's name! I give all headphones I review at least 50 hours of burn-in before I listen to them closely. I use three pieces of music at V0 variable bitrate to test my...

    Purple hippos? Pink platypuses? Need new IEMs NOW

      Hello, I was thinking of buying a new pair of IEMs. I want ones that are around the $100 range and are well balanced. I want them to have a big sound stage and pretty good isolation. Clear highs aren't really a necessity, because I heard that they can fatigue. I want ones with good mids and...
