Hello,   I've had some Head-Direct RE0 just under a year, and loved the sound, but sent them back to China twice for the same issue which has now happened again.  It apears to be a fault in the cable near the jack which means the sound in one ear cuts out intermittently.  Moving the cable...

With all the fakes appearing on Ebay these days I thought it might be an idea to compile a lost of headphones which have confirmed fakes on the market. Also, a small description which outlines what little features you should look out for that may be an indication that is is actually a fake. I'm...

I bought a set of Ultimate Ears MetroFi 220 IEMs about a week and a half or so ago and have been quite pleased with them. They were on sale at Best Buy for $60, normally $80, and seem to routinely go for $60 on the web. I haven't seen much here about them, so I thought I'd post something about...

Hey, can anyone tell if these Shure e2c's are real or not?  I bought them used off of ebay and I don't have much experience so I don't know.  Any help would be appreciated, thanks.       

So I don't really know that much about headphones but after a couple experiences with legitimately noise-isolating and decent sounding buds, I want a respectable pair.  I have a budget of about $50 or maybe more and I would prefer noise isolating IEMs but wouldn't mind a decent pair of over-ear...

I like my new ME 11+ iems, but the supplied tips do not give a good seal, they are too pliable and do not provide a good seal. I have had Shure headphones, the e2c and a grey pair (don't remember the model #).  Anyway, I like  I guess you would call them the olive grey tips of the shures.  Now I...

I don't have a lot of experience with IEMs... I have only owned the Shure E2c, se310, and currently the se530.   Everyone of those IEMs has sounded very thin and weak to me. The se530s are supposed to have the best bass response of them all, and they still, to my ears, sound weak in the bass...

Hey guys, I just got these recently. Honestly these are the first iem's that i've paid more than $30 for other than the shure e2cs i've used a few years ago. So my question is that am I totally wasting these because most of what I listen to is on spotify and pandora radio?

Hi all, my 1st post...   read the many excellent posts here including the fantastic review of 118 iems and counting. I have just bought the HJE900s thanks to the info at Head Fi, they seemed to fit my needs/budget/longevity expectations.   About 50 hours of burn in and SQ is improving...

I'm looking for a set of cans that I can use at home wirelessly, plugged into a HK AVR 354 for gaming, movies and music while the girlfriend is studying.  I also travel a fair amount so I want to be able to plug them into an iPod (hiphop, rock, electronica, audio books) when I'm on the plane...

Hey everyone. I have a pair of NuForce NE-7M's that I have had for a couple of years. At the time they were purchased as a best bang for the buck set around their price point (my old pair of Shure SE 310's were stolen). While I have enjoyed them, I am looking for something to replace them.  ...

I have lurked on this site for some time and finally decided to post to ask you guys if you had tried the Zagg Smartbuds.  Before these I was using Shure E2 and E2C iems.  I got them for $34 after a promo code from Zagg.  I was looking to use these in the gym to block out the noise and was used...

Whats up all,,,I love music.   Well last year I got a new set of SHURE in ear monitors/earbuds,,, payed $140 I think,,,but I don't know if they are the E2g, E2c of what,, they are all black like these...   they are by fare the best headphones I have ever had in my ears but I want to...

My name is Jennifer. I am using my husband's account. His birthday is coming up and his current earbuds are broken. I want to surprise him with new ones but am totally lost in what to get him. He has had Shure E2C's then switched to ER-4's and back to E2C. He likes the over the ear cable. But, I...

I did my research and the two most recommended replacement tips are the Complys and Shure E2C.   I can't justify purchasing the Complys if they need replacing as much as they do which leaves me with the Shure E2Cs.  ...

I'm goging to buy mp3 player just wondering which has better sound quality e2 or cilp+ any opinion would be nice.

Having used the RE0 + Shure black tips every day on the subway to school. I am increasingly fed up about the lack of isolation on my RE0 on the subway, as I find myself turning up the volume up quite a bit just to hear dialogue. Also, I hear no bass and detail because of the background noise. I...

Hi guys, i'm new to this forum and would appreciate your help.   I bought these E4Cs and the foam buds/sleeves from Shure to fit on them, problem is they don't!   The nozzle is too wide for the new sleeves. The nozzle seems to be like those on  my old E2Cs, and i bought these new...

Hello there guys, I am having a little bit of trouble here with my M9. I just recently purchased it and have been using it for the past week. I noticed that when I am using it, I got this vacuum sound and feeling in my ear. I have tried different silicone tips that I have (both single and...

Let me premise this thread by stating that I have been researching headphones for a very long time (years.)  In fact, I am constantly reading reviews so the research is effectively ongoing.  I will also say that I thought that I had made up my mind on Grado SR325i headphones, but much to my...

Thoroughly digging my SRH840's, but already am trying to find a way to get some velour pads to try to replace the (very nice) leather pads. I listen to headphones about 8 hours a day and leather can get a little sticky for that long a period. Anyone with the SRH840's have other phones that might...

How "flat" are the Shure E2C? I've seen a lot of reviews claiming that the E2C are "flat" and I would say the bass is almost overpowering.

From iPod Lounge Quote: Audiophile debates over accuracy of sound aside, if you ask the average guy what he wants to hear from headphones, the word “bass” is most likely to be part of that answer. To that end, Headbanger Audio is now offering Ear Subs ($29.99), several pairs of...

Hi!   Just as everything went well this morning I...   Picked up my running gear, changed to my running clothes, took my ASICS on, turned on my Sansa Clip and...I couldn't find my Jays d-Jays! We went through the whole apartment trying to find my beloved Jays d-Jays but I must have lost...

curious anyone recabled their e2c? Any sonic improvements over the stock cable? curious, Garrett
