Hi head-fiers!   I know, the question seems to be just a repeated one again and again...   What I am really interested in is the find the IEM which offers the best noise insulation and then, the best sound as a secondary criteria.   I can not find any details on the Klipsch x5 and...

Hello everyone!   First off my apologies, I know this question is likely asked a hundred times a day at the least.  That said, I have spent many weeks lurking and reading opinions and reviews and quite frankly the vast amount of information has left me almost as undecided as I was when I...

...   I thought I'd be kind to someone and spoil myself with a set of Etymodic ER-4P.   Well I finally decided I don't like the ER4P and wanna get myself a replacement for my beloved S4. Don't get me wrong the mids & highs are exceptional, but the bass is dead. I don't care what...

Hey everyone, after leaving my Klipsch x10's for some full sized cans (ATH-M50, Shure 840, etc) I have realized that IEM are really what I need.   I want to upgrade from my x10's. I loved them when I first got them 2-3 years ago, but after comparing them to the M50's, I realized that they...

Almost two years ago, I walked into my local Klipsch dealer and noticed an in-store sale special; Klipsch image X10 $199 (CDN).  I knew that these phones usually commanded well over $300 and given the money back guarantee, I dropped the two hundred bones and headed home.  I had recently passed...

I'm interested in the bass and sub-bass response of the Klipsch x10's. Some say it is high in quality and quantity, but don't give a reference point. How does the x10 compare to other basshead phones like the IE8, Atrio M8, Hippo VB, Eterna et al.?

Hi guys when I got my iPod Touch last year I wan't really into music, only had a hundred songs and used skull candies (haha).  Recently I've really gotten into music and my collection is getting a lot bigger so I'm going to get some a-jays/a50s/SRH440s/K518s. I have an 8gb iPod because of how...

I notice that some phones have upward to 8 drivers if I'm not mistaken?  Theoritically, how is it benificial, and realistically, have people noticed the benefits to more drivers?  I really want to hear this out from people that have experience with multiple driver phones.  Also, I need to know...

I noticed they just dropped in price on amazon to $254 and an authorized dealer onecall had them even cheaper for $249+free shipping. Being the thrifty guy I am I decided to offer them $200 using their "my price" option. I received an email promptly there after of $224.95+free shipping. Well...

must be: 1) non-custome 2) single driver (sorry, not a fan of tantalum capacitor cross-overs) 3) good sound isolation (otherwise I'd just use my Stax 001/003) 4) at least as good sounding as the ER4. 5) within $350 budget (new or slightly used).   Thanks for any ideas...

Hello Everyone, I am looking for some suggestions on some high end earphones. What I am looking for is (In the ear) light weight, portable earphones.   Perhaps something along the lines of the klipsch x10? Sound quality is also the second biggest important thing to me - the model must sound...

After reading this site for a few days, I decided to get some Shure 840's. I was sick of my in ear phones (Klipsch X10's ... amazing sound but fragile and uncomfortable), and after 2 days of listening to the 840's I'm basically happy with them. But I have a few questions that hopefully someone...

Hello Head fiers,   First of all i am asking because there are very little posts on the Fischer DBA-02. I heard that the DBA-02 are similar to the Westone 3, is that true?   Are the DBA any good, how do they compare to the x10's? Which of the two have more bass?   Thanks...

Ill be using this for commuting, source is ipod nano 16gb fiio e7.I have used UE tfi10, but I'm going to be selling them due to the fact the comfort on these thing arent great. Sure, the sound is phenominal and detailed but comfort is a must for me.So I need your opinion. What IEM should I get...

Close in price, but I've only seen comparisons of the X10 and M5 and not X5 and M5. Any idea on how these compare? I'm looking for bass which I know the M5 has and the X10 have, but I don't know how the X5's bass compares to the M5. Overall any suggestions on the better set?  ...

I'm just new to the forum but here is my first review.   Equipment used: Ipod 5.5g Rockboxed - LOD - E7, Klipsch x10i double flange & custom sleeve vs HiFiman Re-Zero small sleeve.   Having been a huge fan of the Klipsch x10's I have to admit being blown away by the Re-Zero's, whilst...

Found this site while going through many, many reviews for in-ear headphones around the $150 range.    I ended up purchasing the Klipsch Image X5 today and they should be here in the mail on Friday.   Anywho, most of the people here are hardcore about their listening habits. What I mean...

Which would be your personal take? Specifically for: -Electronic music -Physical work   Thanks in advance,

Hello,   I just received the Shure 535's today.  It sounds great in terms of clarity, and midrange voice comes thru very easily.  I'm quite dissappointed in the warmth, and the bass response though.  I've tried all the sleeves, and found the ones that fits best, but still it doesn't sound to...

I'm hoping someone can help me start again and get me back into headphone listening.   It's been a while since I've haunted these pages and to be honest, I lost interest in headphones etc for quite a while. I have been using a set of Klipsch Image X10 in-ear phones with my iPod Touch...

Hi, I have been checking to buy one of these 3 for quite some time now, all three are by american manufacturers as far as I know. At one point street prices for the klipsch and the ety seem to have been 170 dollars more or less and the shure for 350 dollar but i cant find them for that price at...

How many drivers? 4?   http://cgi.ebay.com/Klipsch-Custom-4-/150569721921?pt=Other_MP3_Player_Accessories&hash=item230ea7a041

Hi everyone, I am looking for an iem to tide me over till i can get the jh3a custom system. I need one that isolates as well as possible but is also comfortable. I know the etys are know for isolation but i do htink i might enjoy a more fun sound. The klipsch x10 and shure se535 are on the top...

Hi!   I just replaced a broken Sennheiser IE8 with a Sennheiser IE8i (the one with mic) that I bought on Ebay. After comparing the two I realized that the cable has a different colour (the IE8 has a more greyish cable while IE8i version is dark black) and also that the  cable of the IE8i is...

Hello,   I'm in the market for a new pair of IEMs for use while I travel. My work requires that I do a lot of flying, so I am looking for something with solid audio performance, comfortable for use a few hours at a time, and - most importantly - with a high degree of isolation. I am aware...
