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...

Hi all. I'd love to get your advice.   I'm looking for a decent silicone custom IEM. I will be primarily using this for airplane travel. I travel A LOT (flying twice a week normally), and I find that wearing IEMs really reduces my fatigue. I'm currently using a few different IEMs including...

I bought the Vsonic Gr07 Mk2 and I read on the forums it needs a long time to burn in.   I plan on just letting them play for 2 weeks 24-7 using my ipod music (all kinds of music genres it contains) on average to high volume.   Would this work? Or do I have a risk of destroying my IEMS...

Audio Technica recently just announced a series of new models, with the most interesting one being the portable ESW11LTD!   http://popculture.blog.so-net.ne.jp/2012-10-12   Price is a whooping 63,000YEN!   Also announced ES500, ES700, CKS1000LTD and the AD2000X

Im a audio noob looking for some good IEMs or headphones for around $100, max is $120. I want headphones that sound great and balanced without bass overpowering mids or something like that. I think Thinksound ms01 is a good pair for $100 but I want to see what audiophiles think.

Over my audio journey, I've tried many different earphones in an attempt to find the perfect sound signature for me.   However, I've come to a sudden realisation: I just want fun! I want an earphone that'll allow me to tap my feet and feel good. I don't listen to music that requires ultra...

So let me start off with saying that I am just getting back into Head-Fi after a 6 year hiatus, so I have no idea what is good these days. I picked up a pair of ATH-M50's from Sound Professionals with the detachable coiled cable, and I love them. I am using them with a Fiiio E17 (portable...

I hesitated to post, wasn't sure as a newbie with a low post count but here goes...   I was over at Headfonia looking for versatile phones that don't leak much, are more closed than open, and that I'll be wearing around town. I listen to less aggressive rock, electronic (trance), movie...

I've been searching and I can't find anything specific to me.. I would like an IEM for work and working out.. I'm a tile guy so I need something that isn't sound canceling so I can hear my boss yellin at me and I'm thinking an ear clip would be the best to hold it on... Here are some more...

Hi I was wondering could someone help me . My Klipsch s4's broke after 5 months (sound went in left bud) and since then I've just gone along with standard Apple earbuds but I can't take them any longer . I've been debating to get the S4's again but the fact they lasted only 5 months is putting...

I'm looking for some IEMs for listening to classical/orchestral/instrumental music.  They will be powered by a phone and nothing else.  I already have the DT770/250 with FiO E10 for home listening, but they obviously are not portable.  My current IEM sounds OK, but the right speaker is giving...

if anybody has both of these headphones, i would appreciated if they could post the comparisons between the both. and is there a significant difference between the mkI versions of these headphones?

I have been reading around the forum and have found some interesting products, however I thought I would describe what I'm looking for in detail for a better response.   I am looking for    1. In-Ear. (Nothing fancy, the normal (round) ones. I tried the Bose IE2 and I hated them) 2...

Hey everyone,   So I bought a pair oF Dunu I3C-S IEMs a fellow head-fi member. When I met up with him, I auditioned the IEMs for a brief moment with Coldplay - Princess of China.   Right at the start of the song, I immediately noticed something was different about this pair of IEM's -...

Hello folks I was just digging around and found this. Not sure if it's true but would be very nice. I'd hope if it is true they would really fix the issues on the current FX700 (too prominent treble and bass, and a recessed mid-range in comparison). Otherwise I really loved the FX700. Well also...

Yes, I do realize that mixing is done best with true studio monitors or reference headphones, but I'm just wondering what the best IEM for mixing would be. Please note that although they need to be good for mixing and need to be very well balanced (with no frequencies recessed), I'd want them to...

I'm deployed overseas and I "lost" my NuForce NE-700Ms. Before them, I had the NE-7Ms. As you can see, I am a huge NuForce fan, but they are not producing mid-end IEMs anymore.   Therefore, I'm in search of a new company of earphones with similar sound quality. I loved the way the NuForce's...

Im considering buying my first pair of (hopefully) good sounding and insolating IEM. However, Im dont know that much about what is good and what is not..    Im primarily going to use them with my iPhone without external amp (as dont have such), so they need to pretty easy driven I guess -...

No frills comparo here, I have the UM3x on loan from a fellow head-fier so I figured I'd do a comparison. Most of my testing is done listening to Shpongle, it's pretty much the most taxing music I could imagine for putting headphones through their paces: Posford and Raja Ram cover the whole...

So here it is all in the title : I used to own SA6's, and they are rightfully dead.   I got them when my SHURE SE530's died, and they litterally changed my life. But I have to move on. I need a removable cable I use my in-ears on the way to work mainly, and I'm not always the sweetest...

Is it advisable to reshell IEMS like UM3X? Cause it seems cheaper than the ES3x. Im just worried it might sound like **** when itcomes back

Dear guys, I need your advice this time as I bought ER4Pt over 8 months for music production and mixing purpose. I really like it's detail, clearity and mid-high freq but I really want more bass from there. Cos im producing Trance/House and when I mix on ER4P, the result is always lack in bass...

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...

Hi all, I am looking at purchasing either one of the following:  Kilpsch Image S4i/Reference S4i  Shure SE215 Jays t-jays three Phonak Audéo Perfect Bass 012 Bose IE2 Audio-Technica ATH-CKM77 Velodyne vPulse Fischer Audio Consonance V-Sonic GR06 thinksound ms01 Creative...

Hi there,   Yea I know, this thread again, let me apologize in advance   I'M SORRY!   Alright now that that's done with....   I'm looking for a pair of IEMs (I haven't actually ever used them, but I have an intense hatred for earbuds, because  I always have problems with them...
