It works well with an Android devince and Neutron. :D   Is your Android device on the E18 happy list and can run USB Audio without any special apps like USBAPP?


It's a Note 3 so I would assume it's compatible.

I got my E18 earlier this week and so far I must say that I love it.  Had been just plugging my IEM's into my phone and laptop, and it sounded fine, but the E18 makes a world of difference.  Worth every penny to me.

What headphones are you guys using with the e18, just curious. I've been using the momentum on ear, se535, grado 60, and Harmon Kardon NC. Looking at the p7, hp50, k545, k551... need top decide on a good closed back over ear headphone

Use SE215. Think much bass for me :frowning2:. iBasso D6 sound balanced with SE215.
SE535 soud good? I read that 535 is bright. How bass on 535 with E18?

I haven't even got my E18 yet but when it arrives I intend to use it mainly with my V-Moda M100's. I'll let you know how it goes. I'm impressed with the V-Moda's straight out of my phone right now so I can only imagine things will improve.

Just realised that the e18 works great with my Asus tf101 using Usb audio player. Perfect for the bedroom. Got a external harddrive connected to the tablet loaded with flac albums. Then the e18 and my Momentums. No need to buy a laptop for the bedroom now. But still need to connect to the phone if I want to listen to spotify.

To be honest my se535 wouldn't be the best to generalize the se535 performance. I've done the brown dampener mod and upgraded to silver adl cables so they out perform otb se535 even the ltd by a long shot. That said with my setup of the se535 and the e18 they are the clearest headphones with the most precise bass I've ever heard. The vocals are excellant, base extremely tight but very veery present (better than my momentums, which I ended up getting rid of) yet not overpowering and the highs are almost on par with my grados which is saying a lot. The only gripe I have and why I'm looking for closed back over ears which seems I will never find, is that putting them on and taking them off is a lot of work, for office or daytime use I get bothered by people quite a bit so need something easier to put on and take off. Overall for in-ear I don't think I could've asked for better, especially since they've been going strong now for almost 4yrs... otb i do remember them being quite bright and fatiguing, but they sound much better now...
