I have been wondering lately if I should get an amp for my Shure SRH 840's Here is a link to the headphones - http://www.shure.com/americas/products/earphones-headphones/headphones/srh840-professional-monitoring-headphones   I really appreciate a warm and colourful sound. I would...

It seems like from the threads that Im reading here the most people seem to prefer all the newer IEMS over the Shures, i.e Westone 3, SM3, FX700? Are Shures just really overpriced then since it does not fare well against these IEMs, or is my perception of the Shures just off?    And are...

I've had 5 pairs of earphones (4 Shure E2c, 1 RE0) to go out on me in 3 years due to cable failure. I'm sick of this. I'm going to use my analytical mind to analyze why. Please tell me if I'm correct, and if there are any other reasons of cable failure.    All 5 pairs broke from either left...

Hello,   I know I'm new to the forums and everything, and my first post is also one asking for advice rather than helping, but I really need some advice.   So I've been using Creative EP-630's for the last year, went through approximately two of them (possibly three in a 1.5 year span?)...

     Hi, I am new to the forums and also new to buying quality IEMs. I had a pair of Klipsch Custom 3s that I purchased a few weeks ago that recently got stolen. While the cord design was one of the worst I have ever seen I did enjoy the way they sounded. (Being that this was my first decent...

I love everything about the way my Shure SRH 840's sound-and I mean LOVE. But they are way too top heavy and hot to be practical for anything other than sitting still.   And, my Shure E2C's aren't cutting it anymore as far as IEMs go. The isolation isn't good enough (I use the largest...

Hello Head-Fi. Long time lurker here and I have a question for you guys. I have a pair of JBL Reference 220 IEM's that I think I'm just about ready to retire. They've worked fine but havent given the best sound quality in the world. I'd like to replace them with another pair of IEM's and I...

I wanted everyone to know this review was out there and started it as a new thread so it wouldn't be missed by those who haven't been following the latest IEM news. The currently most active Westone 3 thread is at the following link, and is required reading for those contemplating buying these...

So, my GF got the shure e2c a while ago, except they were out of stock and sent her the SCL2(atleast she thinks thats it) instead. She doesn't really care as she thinks she doesnt have the ear for audiophilia so the sound isn't that big of a deal as long as they're comfortable and what not.  ...

First off sorry if is taboo for starting more than one thread on the same topic. It's just that treads drop down the list and onto another page really fast here. I was wondering about the site Todd the Vinyl Junkie. Right now there are the Shure E2c's going for really cheap and I would like...

Heres a little mod I did to my e2c. Use a dremel and trim off the very last ~1/16" to open up the tube opening. Seems to improve treble and midrange presence. Bass doesn't seem as bloated as a result. I use the small soft tip and a govibe to amp. initial impressions....
