I listen to pretty much every genre except rap not so much. Need something that'll handle hardcore to metal to rock to electronic etc. I don't know much about headphones / earphones so I need help. My budget is 100 dollars. My choices so far have been Sol HD amps which I'm able to get for...

The right earphone lost its volume and clarity. I highly suspect its because of wax inside the filter. Ive googled and bought a bottle with 3% waterperoxide or something. Dipped the earphones in them for minutes then cleaned with water and let them dry for half an hour. Trying them didnt do...

It was about two years ago when I first listened to the Klipsch S4 Image headphones.  Before that, I had only ever listened to the crappy Apple iPod white earbuds.  Listening to the Klipsch S4's completely blew my mind, I had no idea what I was missing.   Fast forward two years later I have...

I'm planning on getting my mom some IE headphones for christmas but i know absolutely NOTHING about any IE brands or quality. ill be buying them off ebay(probably) so any names or brands under 100$ would be nice. She listens to soft rock, sometimes greenday, and what else im not sure, shes 40 so...

Hey all, I need some help deciding which IEM's to buy. I would like the absolute [B]loudest[B] bass I can get when plugged into my iPhone. I recently lost my Audio-Technica CKS-77's and decided I needed something with louder bass. My price range is around $100, and some IEM's I've found from...

Greetings! A friend of mine recommended me to this site, and I hope i'm posting in the right section. Basically, i was hoping someone could recommend me to a pair of high quality in-ear headphones on a budget. I've used a pair of Sony MDR - XB40EX for about 2 years, and they were awesome. Only...

hello this is my 1st post and i apologize if i dont know the rules here II saw this website that is all dedicated to headphones and their quality I like listening to music and especially in a good headphones. Before i had      SONY Extra Bass Earbuds Model number: MDR-XB40EX  ...

Hello headfiers, I want a iem that has lots of power handling, around 300mw or more, so that when i crank up the volume once in a while, not every time, i want a iem that has drivers that don't crackle or rattle, when there is lots of heavy bass at high volume basshead levels. Which bassy iem's...

Recently I want to buy a new IEM, just wondering which one will provide good sound quality ( stage, clear,bass,space).     UE 600, shure 215, nu force 700 which one should I choose??    I am using Sony MRD-G45LP now, hope UE 600, shure 215, nu force 700 can provide more sound quality...

The only place where I can find replacements (medium) is a single seller on Amazon US - and the fool doesn’t ship to international addresses. I don’t want the gel-filled, flange and Comply foam tips - or bog-standard silicone tips - and it’s completely absurd that I can’t find replacements here...

Hi, because i am a basshead, i went for the jvc fx1x and hate the bass on them its bloated, muddy, not much sub bass, more mid bass. I am after low sub bass that moves your eardrums, so what do you recommend?   Also the JVC fx1x don't vibrate your eardrums, which i though it would, so i am...

I am looking for some purely bass specified IEMs. All that matters is bass for me, as I listen to lots of bassy music (although rap happens to be excluded). I want to get the dirtiest, muddiest, loudest bass possible. Yeah, I know, "He wants muddy bass? What's with this guy?". Well, this is...

Last week, somehow my Klipsch Image S3 disappeared and obviously isn't coming back. I've been going around doing research on high quality IEMs for ~$50 (after LOTS of disappointments from generic brand IEMs) and came up with 3 candidates. The most important factors here are isolation and audio...

Hi there! Would anyone of you guys advice me on which is the best headphones I could get for US$130 budget? I know these things differs from each individual to another. I just would like to know what is the ideal one you guys would get for the budget stated. Maybe I would be happy with the...

So I recently got my Monster Turbines that I purchased from amazon. I was looking for a pair of great sounding IEM's for under $100 to use while listening to mostly rap/hip hop music and also other genres of music from time to time. Most people recommended the Monster Turbine's from Amazon so I...

Long and dreary:   I've grown tired of purchasing $20 IEMs only for them to crap out in 10 months, and I end up having to buy a new pair, or use ones that came with a device I had bought. So during the past couple of weeks, I've been beginning to get familiar with all the terms. I'll admit my...

hey everyone,   I plan on getting my first set of mid-range IEM. My first set of decent headphones were Grado SR60s(which I bought used off these forums about 3 years). They were decent but eventually broke. I then purchased some AudioTechnica M-50(coiled) and still use them to this day but...

Looking for the best IEMs that I can get for $100 and under.    I listen to mostly hip-hop / rap so I would like the bass to be strong but also balanced and clear sounding.    I also like the warm sounding mids in headphones as well.    The only other IEM that I've owned are the...

Two years ago i bought a pair of etymotic hf5 headphones, i'm no sound expert but i found their sound clear and enjoyable although a bit too soft on the bass department. In the last few months signs of wear began to appear on the headphones, my dad replaced the connector which fixed the...

Hi, I've been reading around the forum a bit and looked at the gear section but I decided to make an account to ask a question. I'm going to be traveling for round an hour each day by bus or by bike. I want a new pair or earphones for the journey and general listening. My budget is roughly $100...

First of all hello to everyone, since this is my first post here. I'm about to buy myself a pair of some hi-end IEMs, I've been reading up on that here on head-fi and many other places, but everytime I'm nearly convinced something new comes up... my problem is that I live in Poland where it's...

I've been using the Creative EP-630 for years and since I'm not a hi-fi expert, I was pretty satisfied with the sound they produced and to be honest, they are just the greatest bang-for-buck IEMs. Now that I have a bit more money to spend I want to upgrade my IEMs. I listen primairly to Dubstep...

I'm a huge Hip Hop head so that's what I listen to. I listen to it through an iPod/iPhone, what would be the best headphones? Thanks for your help, I've looked through a couple guides and was so confused, I felt its be easier to talk to y'all directly.

Hello all. Today i just noticed that my right side mesh covering is missing. It was there a few days ago and im just guessing that it got loose and fell out. My question are my headphones still safe to use without breaking them? What do you guys suggest that i do?

I just got my Monster Turbines from Amazon in and check this out!!     Both of them are like this now. Im going to the store to get super glue and just try to do it myself because i cant wait for them to reship etc.   Anybody know how to fix or have this issue?
