Hi guys Spent the last while reading up on here, and on the av forums, trying to work out what IEM's to upgrade to. Been rocking Sennheiser CX400s for the last 2 years or so - Bought for £50, loved them, felt like a real upgrade from the PX100's I owned previously. Previous headphones: CX400...

If so what do you use?    Going from my desktop set-up in the office to the ipod in bed is kind of depressing :I.   what are some cheap but good sounding alternatives?

I started with the e3c then got SE210, have loves the 210 for about 2 years.   I want an IEM with a negative profile so i can sleep more comfortably with them. The natural next purchase seems to be the SE315, but i would like to avoid the 200 mark. I am skeptical of the 215's because of the...

Basically I have Westone 1's right now which I love to death, but I want to have another earphone that I can use when I need to hear noise around me as well my music. I listen mostly to rock and if these earphones are comfortable and don't "leak" too much music outside to other people that would...

I thought of sharing this one since it got me smiling and wondering...   Under $100, the new SE215 with dynamic drivers is delivering a ton of bass and carries the same design as Shure's flagship SE535 and it has the same great replaceable cables:   Shure SE215 Review   I thought...

I have had my Westone 1's for about a year and i love theme to pieces! I really wanted to upgrade with a pair of UM56 custom sleeves but being a student could not really justify the cost. I am a dental student and having over the past 5 years we have maid various appliances out of acrylic so i...

So I've spent most of today reading countless reviews and comparisons of IEMs within my budget, and I've decided to try to get some personalized advice haha.   So far, I've been looking at:   Westone's UM1's / Westone 1's (which i'd like to get a comparison of... I've been having trouble...

Hello Head-fi, I've been lurking in this websites for weeks now reading people reviews on different headphones/IEMs. And just few days ago I decided to get out of my comfort zone and looked for high-end IEM (for starter) that suits me. I am more into hip-hop/R&B songs but I am an occasional...

Hey Everyone,   I'm looking to upgrade my iPod listening buds. I own the UM2 as my stage monitors, and I love the way they sound, but I'm nervous about carrying them around with the iPod since they're around $300. I love the way they fit, and the around the ear design combined with the low...

So I've been looking around for a pair of decent earphones for my brother, who has been nicking my Westone 3s at every opportunity he can get. I'll be off to uni again in about a week's time, so I don't have much time to do too much research.   That means that really I'm asking for...

hi anyone who have tried out the above 2, can u give me some comments and feedback regarding the 2 models thx!

I'm thinking about buying one of the two but I'm having a hard time deciding between the two.  Any input or recommendations?

      I used to have the iPod ones. Then, I ordered some of the crappy metallic orange IEMS on dealextrem. I first found them good, as I only listened to dubstep with them, and songs I didnt know before.     Well now after listening something else than dubstep, I find them really...

I mostly listen to alternative/rock music, so I'd like a set with some base, but not overpowering.   I would also like to have a mic, but not necessary.  It'd be nice though.   Could anyone recommend me some?  I'm a fairly beginner audiophile.  I've previously used audeo phonak PFE's and...

I need a phone I can use while exercising at my local gym.  My main criteria is toughness.  These babies need to be able to be abused, soaked in sweat, kept in the car and still keep coming back for more.  It would be a plus if they could still sound decent.   I know Sony makes some really...

sup head-fi.   I was wondering if you guys know pair of full size cans that are very forgiving. Because i have loads of badly encoded  mp3 files that i just can't listen to on the Senn HD650's or the beyer 880/990's because it reveals every bit of hiss, pops and spikes that is just...

I'm planning on getting the re0's soon, is there anything else in it's price range i should consider?

I'm looking for a pair of over the ear headphones for trips and such. I like the look Grados, but I am reading from a few that they can be uncomfortable for wearing around the neck or even on your ears for more than a half hour (Are they?)     Needs to be:   - Comfortable to wear for...
