Hi All- I picked up a pair of Beyer DT880s a few months ago and am enjoying them immensely. Needless to say, the cheap headphones I use in the office and when traveling could use an upgrade. I'm looking for recommendations for good all-around IEMs (I listen to anything from rock, classical...

Sorry for the rather long post.      Recently I've been thinking about getting new headphones because I don't think I bought the right ones the first time around. I listen to mostly metal and rock, and currently have Turbines, M50s, and the M6. My problem is mainly that they can end up...

Hello! Im new to this forum, and this is the first thread that I have started. I am doing a review of the Comply Foam tips. First off, I would like to thank Comply and their representative on headfi (Comply, aka Nate) for selecting me to do a review of their foam tips. When I got home from...

i found some rust on my M6 few hours ago probably because of moisture due to sweat. it was near the Driver at the end of the memory wire. does this affect the Driver itself?

I'm still learning the lingo, but am getting closer to understanding what I like and don't like about the gear I already have.  In understanding  this, I hope to be able to purchase my next IEMs intelligently.   My musical tastes tend to be a little eclectic and my playlist is "random all". ...

I'm in the market, like so many others, for budget head/ear/IEMs. Based on what I've read here, I'm split between the Pk3's, pl30's, and brainwavez's proalpha and m1's. Meeelectronics m6 are also an option, but I dont like the over the ear feature, so maybe m9's instead. I'm curious to know if...

I use earplugs when out and about on my motorbike. I was wondering if I could start to use IEMs instead and would like some recommendations for ones that could act as ear plugs and be used with my Nano on longer journeys. Budget is a paltry £20 max. I would need to be able to take off the rubber...

Hi,   For the last year, the default ear-bud headset that came with my phone (brand doesn't matter) has been busted so that only the non-speaker side worked, I would push that into my ear, and hang the other piece off my glasses.  Yes, many a passing driver would snicker at the site.  I also...

Hello all! While i already have a pair of DT990's, I'm on a tight budget right now for a portable canalphone or clip on.   I personally like deep, extended, bass with lots of impact. For reference, i find the DT990's treble a bit too sharp.   Thanks all!    

Smiling, lowering my jaw, etc, causes the high frequencies coming from these 'phones to cut in and out along with the movement. I've experimenting with the various tips and adustments. No change.   Has anyone else noticed this?   Looking at the design, the tube that the sound is...

Hey guys im looking to get either the Shure SE215 or the Wetstone 1..is the wetstone 1 worth the extra 20$?   Also is the monster turbine better or worse than either of these?   Thank you 

I need an IEM to act as ear plugs, since I ride the subway so often, and I want to protect my ears. I figured wearing earplugs might look too weird, so IEMs would be a great solution. I will not be listening to music through them, since I find that I can only listen to music at home through full...

Hey all. I've been a member here for a while. I'm not exactly a newb to the headphone arena, although I don't own any incredibly hi fi stuff.   My main headphones have been the Sennheiser HD 203s (which I love and will continue to, they have a fantastic sound for the price). I also own a...

Hello, I am looking for a decent (noticeable) upgrade from me Meelec M6s. I like the sound signature of the M6s but I was looking for something with a flatter signature overall. Out of the following IEMs which would you think suits me best? Klipsch Image S2 Woodees IESW101B Thinksound Thunder I...

Hi,   This is my first post here . I would like to buy a pair of IEMs for about 50$ . The music i listen to is mainly metal , bands like Kalmah , Nile , Meshuggah , Decapitated , Opeth etc .. I am looking for a good amount of bass as im a big sucker for the double bass blast beats . I am...

I need some help...I'm frozen and can't decide ;) My main set of IEM's are monster miles davis tribs, which I love, but they are not good active IEM's and since they are a bit spendy, I want to be careful with them I also have RE0's, M1's and monster turbine refurbs...have owned w3, eterna...

Looking for a pair of durable iems/earbuds that are cheap (I mean like REALLY cheap, 30 bucks tops) that still have some semblance of sound quality. Any ideas?

Hi.   I've had the original sennheiser cx300 for many years and i lost them, so i need to replace them with something better i hope.   I listen mostly to metal bands like In Flames and Soilwork, but also the occasional electronic music like Chemical Brothers, Prodigy and Pendulum. So...

My questions: How do I use the cord wrapper thingy? And, can i take the shirt clip off? If so, how?   Please help me out :) Thanks!

Alright, you've probably been asked this a thousand times before but I'm looking for some good headphones under $50. I'm a poor college student and I'm going to be using them while I walk to and from school and local stores. My collection is mostly rock/metal and piano pieces (not sure why)...

Can anyone suggest a dependable pair of earphones that I can get for under $30? I recently bought a pair of cheap MEElectronics M2P-BK for a cheap price and I liked them a lot, but they broke within a few hours of using them.

Durability? In your opinion, what is the absolute most durable IEM a available for under $40 dollars? Already looked at some of H2O audio's stuff, but their lower end stuff seems to have some cabling problems. Don't get me wrong, I take care of my IEM's, but I kind of want a pair I can just BASH.

It's finally warming up here on the east coast and I'm starting to get out and run again. I'm looking for some new headphones to get me going and I've been looking at the Meelec M6's. Anyone have good or bad experience doing real running with them? 

What would be the CHEAPEST and most comfortable in ear headphones I could get ? I've had Grado SR80s ,AKG81DJs, and some Silver Sennhesiers (They were probably like 80 bucks, surprise from my dad.   I  listen to alot of indie rock, jam bands, some house, and rap.   Any suggestions ? I...
