I've previously owned Atrio M5 (loved them but it's been a couple of years since I heard them), and Monster Turbines (not as good but for 60, more than half the price, decent sound).   I'm looking for new IEM's since my others broke. I was thinking of either repurchasing the Atrio M5's...

Does anyone know if these are the exact same headphones aside from that OMX has a clip? I'm probably going to get an OMX just wanted to make sure they weren't different.   Also, does anyone know if when amping them, it would be better to get an amp for cans or iem's? since they are neither...

Hello, I'm looking to build my first portable rig and I'm looking for an amp for the system I am going to get.   The X7 has no LOD so it has to go through the HP, and the Sennheiser phones (which I haven't decided which I'm going to get yet, I believe they're the exact same anyway except for...

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). 

So as the title says, I've had my Yuin Pk-3 for about two years and yielding wonderful results. Best earbuds I've ever had so far. I'm looking forward to take the next step. Take it up a notch as far as audio quality goes. I'm looking for earbuds (non in-ear) I can run un-amped for everyday...

I requested this review from Mike of Headfonia a few weeks ago, here is the link: http://www.headfonia.com/high-end-earbuds-review/  

i was currently using sennheiser mx 980 with my iphone 3gs. i heard a good review for it, and i went to buy it without reading "it only sounds good amped" part (i hate myself for this). but now that ive tried it, i found it sound to be too piercing at some songs, especially on some pop songs. it...

Having owned these headphones for a few weeks now, and having used them constantly,  I feel that they have a lot more potential than they are delivering.. and they already sound very good...   I'm experimenting with various mods to flush them out a bit.   first, a little mod for deeper...

First off I do love the D2000, they have a great deal of versatility to me. While I mainly listen to orchestral music (namely soundtracks), I do love their ability to work well with rock/electronic/etc. a wide range of music in general. What I like about them is that they are one of the very few...

Hi guys...   I couldn't find a direct answer so...   well.. I'm using right now the Yuin-pk2 not just for office use but for running, which although they are not for it they work beautifully, with the right care of course.   I'm interested in SQ much more than the "ideal" fit for running...

All,   I finally decided to take interest in IEMs. I started reading and seeing all the good opinions about various IEMs I thought it is time to try them.   I have read a few topics with some reviews and thought this through and decided that AT CK10 might what I am looking for.  ...

Hello,   first post here, how is everyone?   I am VERY new to the audio scene unfortunately and needed some advice. I love music but have never paid much attention to the player and spent most of my time on my music libraries. However, I live in a loud city, and like to listen to music...

About a month ago I lost almost all my gear in a fire.  Everything I've ever recommended or said I owned was lost outside of the a few things.  The only survivors were my Hd485 and my Hippo Epic Sparkles and my sansa fuze.  Nothing else made it.  I also lost my couch and my Ps3 and netbook...

      From http://www.headfonia.com/yuin-pk1-killer-in-2010/   "then there are some new high-end earbuds from Chinese companies; the NB01 from ZePhone, and an unknown brand that rumor said is from one of the biggest OEM earphones in the China (which means the world, too!), this OEM...

does they came with the same sound quality? is there anyone could clarify this? i think i like it better with that extra ear clips, plus it look better. thanks, man :)

I did a very short and quick comparison of my Sennheiser MX 980 and IE 8. Here is my conclusion: MX 980 is earbud version of IE 8 or the other way around IE 8 is IEM version of MX 980 At least it sounds like this for me :-) Is it possible that both share the same driver /...

  I'm afraid my PK1 would die anytime soon because of split wire. Appreciate if anybody here who have owned/used/heard the PK1 and owned/used/heard one of these prospects. What I want from my PK1 is the big full sound it has and the rumbling, undistorted bass accompanied with the clear mids...

First, I'd like to state that I'm not a huge audiophile. I'm looking to buy a nice pair of earbuds (not those noise cancellation in-earphones). My price range is around $100, and I've been looking at the AKG K319. Anyone have any thoughts on these earbuds or suggestions for other earbuds...

It seems that all the trials of replacing headphones cable and plug separately are doomed to failure. I've asked different people many times to recable my CM700, and there was not a single trial such that connection between new plug and new cable lasted for longer than, say, a month or two...

  A few days ago I posted my thoughts on the Sennheiser MX series and Yuin Series earbuds in a topic here on head-fi.  Due to the massive volume of interest ( i counted 18 different people asking for a more detailed review ) I will post my thoughts in detail.   Lets start off with the...

Just got my MX 980 and I thought to share some pictures and thoughts with you. First of all, the package is stunning, it really feels like high-end. You can see in the upper left corner the hologram, and on the left earbud there is a serial number engraved. Not printed, but engraved. I am not...
