direcow, Hmm that's really weird because my old mp3 was a Zen vision M 60gb and I got the shocks off that one as well. It doesn't happen all the time, but it doesn't seem to be only when I'm sweating, so I'm not sure that's what causes it.

I assumed it was just the friction created by my mp3 rattling around in my pocket, and that's why holding it still fixes this (as well as possibly 'earthing' myself?? I really have no clue about electricity so feel free to tell me that this is a stupid thought)

Anyway, like I said, is there anything I can do to stop this?? I'm willing to buy different tips if they're likely to fix it. I thought double-flanges or some other longer tip might help, but don't wanna buy them just to find it does nothing.

Today I found out that I need a medium Creative EP-630 tip on the left side and a double flange on the right side. Sound is amazing, but that looks crappy. I am very curious about that, but the sound became even better now. Got a perfect bass!

Very strange on the shocking thing. I only use my XBs sitting here at my desk at work. I suppose I sweat a little here and there but nothing like working out.

I think my right driver just died. When I play anything I only hear sound from the left earpiece. Since I only bought them about two-three months ago do you guys think that I should mail Uncle Wilson about a replacement and if so, what do you guys rate the chances of getting a replacement? I'm a bit bummed because I really enjoy them.

Headphone out...

I'm using default firmware on a Creative Zen Touch, so I highly doubt replaygain is in effect.

After two days of listening to my AKG K530 I have to say I enjoy listening to my MylarOne much more, and they cost double the price of the X3. I wonder how the X3i will sound, can’t await to get them, they’re somewhere flying around in a plane at the moment.

Ok, it would be nice if you said something about the sound anyway. Maybe after some burn-in.

ooh okay. haha.

well lets just say that it sounds very much like the X3, but better, and the build quality improved too, the wires are sturdier.
