Hi all, im new here and i really need some help.   I currently have the cx300ii, but i want to upgrade to something with more bass, a lot of bass, heavy, strong and punchy. I read lot of reviews for the CKS70, and when talking about bass all reviewers says that they are one of the best...

I currently have the Sennheiser CX500's, but to me the treble isn't as crisp as I'd like. I was thinking of either getting the Sony EX600, Sennheiser CX880, Sony EX510LP, Shure 315, Sennheiser IE 6, or a refurbished version of the Monster Turbine Pro Gold. I had the refurbished MTPG's a couple...

  Hi there, I've been searching around for an advice on upgrading from Image S4 and all the roads seems to lead head-fi. I've read couple threads of similar topic, but people that were asking this question seemed to had more money to burn than me, hope it is not too big of problem for me to...

Hey guys. Just wanting to discuss and gather opinions on using different ear bud tips to alter the sound signature of your earphones. In my previous experience, I find that out of a set of 3 different sized silicone tips that the largest appears to give me the best bass performance and that the...

Hi, i just lost my DBA-02 -.- And thinking of getting a new one. However, i came across this FX500 (i know i'm kinda slow) and i'm thinking of getting those. Which is better in terms of clarity and soundstage?  DBA-02 clarity is amazing however bass is kinda weak. Thanks !

hey all, i am looking for a pair of iem wich has great subbass presence. I currently have a pair of hd598 and i find that the bass is lacking for certain songs. So I would like to buy IEM which could give me a different presentation and has great low end extension. I've done my research and...

So I just spoke to someone called Richard at JVC in the UK to find out if the JVC HA-FX1000 is in fact, the re-branded JVC Victor HP-FX500, and he confirmed without a doubt that it is. He said the FX1000 is exactly the same model, but was renamed specifically for the official UK release. So...

I'm more of an iem man as I have or had the ie8, se530, fx-500, fx-700, sm3, hippo vb, sound magic pl50 (and 30), ie7, and monster pro gold. I want to listen to a good full sized can in the house though as they trump iems on average (price for price).   As far as full sized headphones I have...

I am sick and tired of buying new IEMs when my previous pairs die. I don't baby my pairs. I work out all the time and need my phones. I take them to work, I wear them during commutes... anyway, I need something with actual build quality. Budget is up to 250$, preferably 200$. How about the CK10?

Hey guys, just wondering what earphones you would recommend for the most bass around $100 $150. I already have the Brainwavz M2 but they don't quite have enough so I am deciding to upgrade. Any that you could recommend that are bassier than the M2? I've heard the Turbines are quite bassy, should...

So I'm trying to work here and its late.  I decided to use my ER-4Ps for a change while I work.  So as I laboriously put them on with those dumb, yet nice sounding, giant yellow foam tips, I had a mischievous idea.  I played some dubstep!   Now I benched the ER-4Ps for their difficulty...

So how are the Atrio M5s for classical music? Do they handle violins and piano well? Legend says that there are those who prefer the Atrios over their Shure 530s.... Me I can't afford the Shures, but I know I love the sound of IE8s and if they'd only stayed in my ears I'd have kept them. Are...

(this is not an attempt to troll, rather a recount of todays impression) After several months in Singapore now, I finally did make it to the temple of headphones. My mission was simple: figure out what the JH craze is about. Armed with a trusty old Clip+ filled with 256kbps VBR tracks I asked to...

As I've mentioned a couple of times, I'm fairly new to DETAILED inspection of IEMs. Have seen some nice looking wood builds but have NO idea what they really sound like and wonder what the thoughts of the Head-Fi erudite might be. I DO like my wooden room-rig, wonder if the same principles...

Hey Head-fi,   I'm trying to decide on a "basshead" IEM in the <$250 price range, and (I think) I've narrowed it down to these 4. How do they compare, soundwise? My source will be an iPod Touch 2nd gen playing mainly 320kbps .mp3s. I listen mostly to electronic music and hip-hop, so good...

This isn't so much of a review, as I'm really no reviewer, just some thoughts I have on these IEM's. I might add a few more impressions after they have burnt in a bit. Firstly, let me just say these were an impulse buy as my IE8's have been sent back faulty and a guy on here (james i think?)...

I found some FX500s on ebay for only $36 (1 cent + 35.99 int'l shipping): http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rt=nc&nma=true&item=270701056938&si=De9WkbxIM7fXlOJ87%252BdrEia71Ro%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123#ht_500wt_954   And I'm wondering whether they're fake...

I've been looking for some FX500s, and came across this hilarious fake  Shure SCL1-K.  Yes, you read that right. http://www.lunashops.com/goods.php?id=1282   At least the fake FX500 elsewhere on their site kind of looked right: http://www.lunashops.com/goods.php?id=659   With the...

Hi, I'm new here. So I hope my question doesn't sound stupid. About a year ago I bought a pair of Future Sonics Atrio IEMs. They were the first pair of somewhat high end phones I've ever bought, and as soon as I tried them I fell in love with them. The sound was amazing compared to what I...

Well, it's about that time.  I'm looking at my audio stuff and thinking "hmm, what should I drop $200 on next?"  I was thinking of buying new IEMs (to uprgrade from my S4s) but there are a lot of fine looking portable headphones out there.  I am only concerned that portables will not give me the...

I currently use the ATH-M50s for my fullsize headphones and I really love them. However, I have a pair of old Sennheiser CX300's which have had their time. I think their mids and highs are pretty terrible so I'm looking for a new pair of IEMs which meet the following preferences around the...

First post. I need some new headphones, but I'm a total nooby. I have an ipod (iphone 4) and use the standard issue headphones. They're ok, but I do virtually all of my listening on my bus commute to/from work - over 2 hours a day mostly at freeway speeds.  Buses are loud, so I really have the...

~$150 price range     1. Soundstage (good separation/spacious)/non-sibilant 2. Decent bass, able to go low/sub bass 3. isolation enough for bus rides 4. good fit, doesn't irritate/fall out   any other suggestions are welcome... please let me conclude and choose one to buy this...

I have been cycling through at least 2 pairs of headphones a year now - the cable never seems to last too long with how often I use them (several hours each day). I have done a lot of research on IEMs and it seems that as soon as I found one I like, I discover something bad about them (bad...

Priorities in order from most to least important    1. decent noise isolation  2. vast 3d soundstage  3. deep bass  4. comfort  5. build quality   max $150 or around     thanks a million
