Hi guys i need a advice real quick. Long story short, I sent out my broken EX600 to Sony replace center, but they said since EX600 is discontinued, so they are no longer able to replace my Ex600 with a new one. However, they offered me EX700LP. Is EX700 any good? I liked the Ex600. Thanks...

Can anyone confirm whether both these stage monitor type IEMs are discontinued? IMO they have some of the best sound rivaling full sized headphones. Are there any replacements from Sony with the same type of design?

I am fairly new to high-end IEM. Best one I had is UE TF10, but Tf10 is kinda dry and artificial to me. So After some research, I have my eyes on SONY EX1000 and Senheiser IE8. What I am looking for is smooth mids and highs with a large soundstage and natural bass.   Can either of the two...

In the same price range between $300 and $500.

Hi I'm new to Head-Fi and was looking for some advice as too what iem to buy. I listen to primarily dubstep and electronic music and i like a good bass presence, and soundstage (hoping this is the right terminology for what I'm looking for). Im looking to order an iem from Bestbuy and the only...

  The effect of headphone cables: SONY MDR-EX1000 http://rinchoi.blogspot.com/2012/04/effect-of-headphone-cables-sony-mdr.html   This is a comparison between a non-OFC cable, an OFC cable(RK-EX600LP), and a 99.99999% OFC cable(RK-EX1000SP). Binaural samples for subjective assessment are...

I have been using the EX1000 for more than 6 months now and really enjoy the music (primarily classical) with my iPods. What amazes me is the airy and energetic sound with big sound stage, smooth treble, extended and controlled bass and sufficient details (yet not analytical). It always sounds...

I am interested in purchasing the Sony MDR ex1000 this week. I've read they are one of the best Dynamic IEM's ever heard. I am a big fan of the Vsonic Gr07's, and so far i haven't found an IEM that sounds better to my ears than the 07's. I was wondering if the Son'y still hold it's ground as...

Hi everyone.   I'm looking for an upgrade from my Westone 3. Will be using this with S9 or my iPod classic 120 6g but I dont know which amp...   Open to other suggestions.   Thanks, Leon

I owned the HD650 for about 2 years now but iv decided to go for a more portable approach to my music. i originally decided to go with the westone 4 mostly cause the pair i picked up were only $300. at first i thought they were very muddy sounding but they started growing on me. i loved the...

I've known about the EX1000 for years now, but only stumbled upon the 7550 after an erroneous click on a certain website. This wayward click brought me to the 7550's FR graph, and I was surprised at how neutral this random IEM seemed.   Fast forward to now, and I've ended up buying the 7550...

HI, I was wondering how I should clean them. I don't have the wire tool used to clean IEM. I was thinking of pulling out the gauze, but it doesn't seem I would be able to put it back on again. Does anyone else have EX1000 that they have cleaned successfully?

I want  a high resolution , detailed , texturized , transparent DAC with Greatest SOUNDSTAGE in its price range. Of course I hate Harsh high and i have treble allergy .I want more Treble extension and More texturized and detailed sound.not more loud treble.     I have HD650 And Elekit...

So i have been a Beyer users for quiet some time now, using almost all of the Recent DT series with a mix of amps. but i have been looking for a new sound lately. I like the sound of the Beyerdynamics as they work great with a host of sounds, but i'm starting to get annoyed with Neutral tonal...

Hello head-fi!   So I recently purchased the Westone 4's and have been listening to them (un-amped) for almost 2 weeks.  I am coming from a pair of relatively bass heavy IEMs (xears XE200PROs) and am enjoying every part of the increased clarity that I get from.  I'm still getting used to the...

I've noticed with piano sounds, it sound like ringing or like echoing.  Resonance?  I have 1964-T customs and I hate when it happen, it messes up the music.  Poorly tuned?  I've noticed this with SM3, and got rid of it because of this.  I don't think I can do anything with the customs to fix...

I see there has been a very very long thread including a discussion on the fx700 and ex1000, but I am wondering what the bottom line answer is for everyone in terms of preference (and the personal reasoning).   I was also curious about the fx850 and how it stacks up (and if the mids are less...

first of all,i need fellow head-fiers to give your advice.ok,so the question is;is anyone here ever listened both of the mdr 1r and the ex1k?because I want to buy the mdr1r soon.I already have the mdr1k but i spoiled (the dynamic is gone and sound doesn't fun anymore) it by doing something...

I've narrowed my search down to these 3. I am leaning towards the IE80's because they sound similar to the Gr07's in which i find the best IEM's ive ever listened to. But i am afraid the IE80's will be just downright Bass God with a veiled sound.  I listen to RnBHip Hop, Jazz, and alternative...

Hi all,   How would you stack the ex1000 along with ckm1000 and ie800? There is quite a bit of price difference but which has the best sound. I know the ex1000 uses a 99.9... 7n silver cable and is interchangable which is useful if I want to pair it with my fostex hpp1 as dac along with...
