I hate this. I got a pair of UE SuperFi 5vi's. (Yes these are IEM's, but read on) I use my PC with onboard audio and I get muddy bass and muddled vocals. I use my Droid and I get tight bass but ear piercing treble. By ear piercing I mean if there is clapping or a snare in the song I have...

i havent seen too many people here comparing these two headphones side by side..soo im wondering which one of these would be good for listening too trance and techno..i like my sound to be exciting..thanks

Hello all,   I bought a UE 700 last week ($70 deal) and I have problem with the ear-tips that shipped with it.  Even the smallest of the ear-tips that shipped with UE 700 are big for my ear canals (they slip out of my ears and I don't get a proper seal at all).  Could anyone please recommend...

Hey guys i really need help with choosing what earphones to get. My two main contenders are Sennheiser's CX 300 Precision II and the UE Metrofi 220 Please don't tell me to get better earphones because i live in New Zealand and everything here costs a ton and where i live there is not a wide...

Hi guys,  I've been looking for in-earphones for iPhone, and I like this 3 models. Which one do u think is better?  Sennheiser MM 80i TRAVEL Ultimate Ears SuperFi 5vi Etymotic hf3

Well I just got them today. I am going to list some of my likes and some of my problems.   They have bass, but it is muddy. The vocals sound not so nice. Treble is not refined. The bass is more muddy with my onboard soundcard than with my Droid. I find this odd. The SQ is more bearable with...

(sorry guys, but no pictures)   I just got those today, I paid 130 dollars for them, and I am very happy with them. The packaging is very basic, and it was simple to unbox. It came with a small, two medium, and a large silicon tip, and two Comply foam tips, a plastic case, and an airplane...

I got my Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5vi's (v2) yesterday from dabs.com, going for £37.00 if any UK head-fiers are interested.   I'm happy with the sound so far, however the microphonics when worn down are terrible, I mean literally everything gets transferred very loudly to the earphones.  ...

These are my Options - Westone UM1, Sennheiser IE6, Klipsch Image S4, and Ultimate Ears UE700   Needs -   Good Isolation Very Detailed and Good Soundstage Good with All Genres Pairs Very Well with 3rd Generation Ipod Touch's Sound Sig     Which of these would be best?    

I'm about done with my super fi 5 pro's.   I've gone through maybe 5 cables now, and it's just not worth me continuing to keep replacing them.  Plus they are awkward to fit and not very comfortable.   Therefore, I'd like to buy a new pair.  My budget is probably up to £200/$300 (I might...

I just got my Ultimate Ears Triple.Fi 10 Pro headphones for Christmas (they are amazing). The only problem is the cable. It seems like it will break soon and I think they are too stiff. And of course they are fairly microphonic (has Null-Audio fixed its cables?). My main question is which cable...

A.A.'s review of Ultimate Ears MetroFi 220: Price paid $15 at Cash Converters What comes included?:earphones, hard plastic case, different sized ear cushions, user and warranty booklets What the Ultimate Ears MetroFi 220 packaging and earphones looks like: In this photo, I've also...

I've been recommended the Sennheiser CX 300-II Precision, Sennheiser CX 400-II Precision, Sennheiser CX 500, V-Moda Vibe, and Ultimate Ears Metro.fi 170. I'm no good at knowing what earphones are good just based on the technical data and everything, so I can't decide. Do you think you guys could...

I am curious to see what some of you guys bought as your first real headphones and what you bought after those and what you have now. I just want to see how you guys go so into this hobby that you are willing to spend so much!

I'm new around here, and I was wondering what would be a good portable amp for a pair of UE 18 Pros? I've got a budget of $100, if that helps.

hello headfi, you are looking for a cheap IEM and are not an audiophile? read on! my friend and I tested 3 IEMS for 30 €: - Sennheiser CX 300 II Precision - Philips SHE 9550 - Ultimate Ears MetroFi 170 As a source we used a sansa clip+ with different higher quality 320kbit mp3s. We...

 which one is better and why

My right ear doesnt work therefore they are sending me a new pair and I was wondering if I should keep the triple fi 10 or sell them and get something within that range? I like them but i bought them for $140 and I could sell them for around $160 and nab the Phonak PFE or the RE0 for cheaper...

Hi All! I own Etymotic Hf2 and really happy about their sound. It's really detailed and analytical – thats exactly what I like. The only thing I can complain is the lack of bass. I use eq (slightly) in iTunes on my Macbook Pro to improve it. I've just started to read head-fi forums and...

I have the UE Superfi 5 PRO (clear) and the casing fell off! I had no idea until I got home. I need help.   Is it possible to buy just the casing or can I get them transplanted to another housing? What are some suggestions?   I e-mailed UE for an RMA last week and haven't received a...

Hey guys, I'm basically looking for an IEM to replace my TF. I'm looking for a top tier IEM that sounds like the Triple Fi 10. The TF offers to me the perfect IEM sonically, but I am starting to get frustrated with them either falling out or losing a good seal. I have experimented with different...

I know some of you are going to tell me to go to the search bar, because there are already threads posted on it. However, none of them gives a good answer. Most of them say that the TF10s sound great and don't need an amp. Yet these same people also say that the TF10s scale well with better...

Are the UW Triple Fi 5's worth making into customs. It will only be about $150 plus about $50 to make them into customs?

Hi All, I currently have a set of Shure SCL2's. They were my first set of IEMs and have served me well. Recently I've noticed the infamous cracking in the cabling, but also a short in the connection from the cable to the earbud. They're still usable, but I'd like to go ahead replace them. I...

Hey its my first post and I am wondering which of the Null cable I should get, Lune or Enyo? I did search and haven't found much.  What are the differences between the two if anyone knows and how much of a difference is there when I upgrade the cable in terms of sound quality and soundstage? ...
