OK I know that burn-in is a touchy subject for some but I want to state at the start, I have been monitoring the actual decibal levels of Monster Turbin Copper 2 at set frequencies as they have been burning in and they have definitely changed as the headphones have burned in. So for the purposes...

I was wondering which of these two have a bigger bass quantity. Also wher can i get the DDM?

Hi, looking for new headphones, for home and outdoors listening. I want to spend about $500 in total, would be happy to save some money, but can spend more if needed. I picked some phones, but need your help to choose the right ones.   I mostly listen to trance/electro, dance, metal (50%)...

Okay so I am new to the forums, but have always had the audiophile like passion for music. Now that I'm listening to music nearly all day long and think its time to upgrade my equipment to something that I can fully enjoy my music with. With that said I have been really really liking the Shure...

Hi, as my title mentions, I'm looking for IEMs that deliver incredible bass (really low), and yet deliver instrumentals and vocals clearly and without much effort. I really looked everywhere online and I keep hearing mixed opinions about a hundred pairs of IEMs which fit the profile. I'll be...

I'm relatively new to classical music and I just finished listening to Beethoven symphony no. 7 and wow. Just wow. I need better earphones than my current Klipsch S4. I'm going to be listening to orchestral and violin concerto's mostly. What are the best for this at around $200?

IE8 sounds nice, thats not a problem, but they have too much bass for me. I enjoy music more when bass is just another sound like highs, not so big and almost overwhelming like ie 8 output is ...  They fit perfectly even with smaller tips, i suppose i have small ear canals so i always get...

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...

New to posting on Head Fi, but have read many posts on this excellent website.   Here's my situation:   I am looking for a pair of IEM's that fits my criteria (as posted in title): - <$200  - Fluid Bass, Not loud bass like the Sennheiser IE8's - Noise Isolation to Block Airplane...

Performance wise, the IEM you chose, in what characteristic what does it shine over the others in?   I apologize if I missed some good IEMs, I'm only going by what's on the top of my head.

So my IE8 cable has been broken for a few weeks now. All this time that I am awaiting my new cable I have been using alternatives, such as: HD 280 and HD 595.    Now the strangest thing happened to me... I favor the earbuds I found lying around in the closet that my mother got with her...

  this seemed like a better place than the buy/sell forum but if you think it should go there let me know     First...do I have a problem...maybe   is that problem named the head-fi buy/sell forum...perhaps am I addicted to getting packages in the mail every week or so containing...

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...

I want to know which one has more bass and clarity and can it be use with my ipod nano 5th gen.?

I certainly do more reading and buying than posting here. Since joining I started with a set of Grado's. Moved on to a set from Ultrasone. Next moved to iem's and got a "like-new" set of IE8's. Wanting to find something better I went out and thanks to many reviews here bought the Monster Miles...

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...

Ok so after about a year of pretty heavy use of my IE8's they pretty much look like they've been in a war. One of the stems popped out and needed to be gorilla glued back in place and then the coat on the wire is separating from one ear piece and you can see bare wire. Maybe it's just my set but...

Hello people I'm new on this but heard this was the best sight for help on headphones. Well the problem is I'm looking for in- ear up to £400 with massive amounts of bass but also alot of clarity. I previously owned the ie8 and wouldnt mind purchasing them again as they got stollen. From my...

Sorry if this is embarrassingly old, but it was news to me. Stopped me dithering about whether to buy them or not!

Hi everyone! So ive been spending quite sometime reading through the forum trying to decide on a new pair of IEM's. Im looking to spend $200 give or take and after reading multitude of reviews, im still at a complete loss. My previous set of IEM were Shure e3c that recently broke. I liked the...

Hello, haven't been on here for a year+ now. I have absolutely no idea on what's new nowadays.   I'm getting a tad bit bored of my Sennheiser IE8s now and would like to replace these with something that has a bit more detail in the midrange and treble. I also have a pair of Grado HF2's and...

When I first got my RE-0, I loved them.  It was the first time I was hearing all the details and nuances in songs I had been missing. But, I've grown a bit tired of them.  They are too thin, cold sounding, un-involving, and borderline fatiguing.   I'm looking for some IEM's or on-ears up...

Which would you choose and why? I've not done an A/B with both, but have listened to the IE8 and the MX W1 (same driver as 980). 

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

I've had the Triple.fi 10's for about 3 months now, but I could never appreciate its sound. It sounds amazing when I listen in my bed, but it just doesn't sound good when I'm on a train to school.   I guess that I prefer the dynamic IEM's fun sound. What would be one of the top-tier IEM's? I...
