hey internet, what are the most fun, musical IEMs for below $200? I listen to mostly hip hop and electronic music. Sorry for the kinda vague descriptors, I'm new to all this. I just want something... bassy? dynamic? So far I've mostly been looking at the Monster Turbines and the Panasonic...

I have been enjoying my current headphone setup for awhile now - Gamma2 -> Millett Hybrid Max -> AKG K701. But I recently got an iPhone and have been doing a lot of listening to it, and obviously, the stock earphones sound like garbage compared to my usual setup. So I'm going the IEM route.  ...

Am considering buying the HJE900 but have this nagging doubt in the back of my head created by the occasional review that describes them as everything I DON'T want an IEM to be (harsh, mids too recessed for rock, sibilance, overpowering mid bass, lack of soundstage). Furthermore, most reviews...

guys can any 1 help me choose between the IE6 and HJE 900, both of them are available at 89$ and 99% respectively. please help me choose.   i am thinking the senns would be better for working out running etc and hows the senns bass compared to that of the 900's   i listen mostly to  ...

  I'm looking for basic portable headphones in the 80$ range. I basically want the best bang for the buck headphone availalble. I know I won't get pro sound with that kind of price but it's just for listening to music on iPhone\laptop at school.   Thanks guys!

Hey all,   Very long time lurker with my first post, but I'm in need of some expert advice.   Frankly I'm sick and tired of trucking my RS-2s everywhere to listen to music. I love the sound, but I look somewhat foolish sporting these on the treadmill.   I need something small and...

Hi,   I chucked my ER-6 in bin last week as they were really playing up. I need to buy sub-$100 IEM with extreme isolation. I never liked foam tips with ER-6 so I would prefer flange (is that the right word?) tips.   What do you guys think about Etymotic mc5?   Thanks.  

Hey guys, I want to get a pair of IEM's for my mom as a gift. She listens to Indian and western classical mainly and alot of vocally driven music. My budget is around $200 or a little more if I get great bang for my buck. I just got the HJE 900's which I absolutely love but I don't know if the...

Does anyone know what the original RRP (Recommended Retail Price) of the Panasonic RP-HJE900 phones were? The reason I ask is because I was recently in London and couldn't find those earphones in any shop except the Apple Retail Store in Regents Street. The price for them at the Apple store were...

Sadly my filters fell out of my hje900's about a week ago... I went ahead and purchased the comply t-400 tips. The Complies softened the treble a bit to much for me, so i ordered sony hybrid tips instead. Though I would really like to have something protecting the drivers, which was the benefit...

My PL50 just gave up on me (~ 10 months), suddenly there is just no sound anymore from the left side. It's weird though, as I thought I've already taken quite good care of it, ie. always plug out when it's not being used and keep it in a pouch/bag. Oh well, my 2 previous IEMs also have the same...

First I had trouble with shallow fit using stock silicones. Shure olives and trimmed tri-flanges solved that, isolation and fit are good with both of these. Trouble is that I can’t bring myself to like the sound! And that even compared to lowly Shure E3 I used on temp basis after second pair of...

I have the Phonak Audeo Perfect Bass In fact its the BEST earphone i've ever purchased. I love the outstanding clarity and precision; natural, dynamic mids and treble, and bass for a single armature in-ear phone.  I loI   I've always been interested in the Panasonic Zirconias. How are they...

I can't wait. I always wanted one of these the first time i saw it 2 years ago but it was too expensive at the time over $225.   But i finally got a good deal & ordered it.   I hope it lives up to my expectations. I have no questions about the durability (I've heard of one person on...

I have been doing quite a bit of research on the hje900 and I know that the shell and the cables are very durable but I have read about some people having problems with the earbuds becoming defective by losing volume or having one earbud stop working. Is this a common problem with these...

I have trying to narrow down my choices for a bassy iem that is good for hip hop and provides good isolation. I would like to know which one of these has better bass and is a more fun iem. How is the isolation on these earphones? Thanks for the help

Hiiii everybody!   As some will know, I bought a pair not long ago based on stellar reviews and recommendations and have been burning them in all week (I'd say at least 100 hours). I was pretty disappointed with them out of the box, but I was immediately impressed by the detail and highs...

I looking to buy one of these earphones but i can't decide on which one. I mostly listen to hip hop so i would like some good bass. How do these two compare to each other?

I'm an audio noob.  Right now I have the Zune Premiums that came with my zune 80.  I like them but I think it's time for an upgrade.  I definitely want more bass, but I'm not sure how much more.  For instance i'm not sure if the hippo vb's would be too much.  I'm willing to spend up to $100 or...

Does the Panasonic Panasonic RP-HJE900 Zirconia's earphone have the same V signature that the Audio Technica CK7 have (which i love so much)???   Also i read their is a problem with filters falling out is this still true or had the problem been fixed?   Thank You All.  

So, I've got about $80 and I want some decent IEM's. I either going with the RE0 or the HJE900, can you tell me which is better? I listen to Alt, Indie, Metal, Classical, Punk, etc.

I have owned IE8 and UM3x and greatly preferred the um3x. Looking for something like that but for <$100
