Def. has to be the UE super fi. 5 pro. I could never fit them properly and even though the sounded good when I could manage to put them in for more than 5 minutes at a time the still annoyed the hell out of me. Worst fit ever for a pair if IEM. Can't believe there's so many ppl praising the 10 iems when the fit is so horrible.

Dr. Dre Beats, definitely. They were an impulse buy when I had to retire a pair of beloved Senn HD 600s. Then I wised up and got Senn 800s instead. The Beats are just sitting around these days; I really should sell them or something.

 yea a lot of ue iems are hard to fit for some. sucks though they don't fit you, the tf10 is a really great iem.

shure 425 =[

I just picked up Shure 425 new - thought all I have to lose is shipping both ways if I did not like them ...
I am sensitive to rolled off treble (which they have) and I hated Westone 4's super warm and smooth sound ... in any case I have had them for a few days and I am loving them right from the ipod ... you never know unless you tried them - to see if you like them ...
 
Cheers

The westone 4s don't sound super warm to me.  You obviously wouldn't like the 3s

Out of the four I've purchased the AKG 702's are my only regret.  Yikes, I've had them for almost a year now and I still can't stand them.

 lots of people love them, why don't you sell them off?

I regretted buying the k702s. But I sold them and got the HD650s, so it's all good.

I also don't use the sr60s, hd280s or the hje900s, but I can't say I regretted buying them.

I will add my voice to regretting the purchase of the K702...mainly because I sold my K271 MKIIs to help fund it and now find myself missing a great set of closed cans....

My Portapros. When I got them for $40!! I thought the sound was excellent; at least until I got the M50's which wiped the floor with them, and my friend's Lil Jamz which threw it into the metaphorical garbage can.

I'm a Koss fan but I never got the whole 'my Portapros crush the M50' thing.  I don't remotely understand that.

Definitely the Sennheiser HD-570 - I didn't spend too much on them, and may have even gotten all my money back reselling them (I forget), but I never really liked them.

I never liked the low end sennheisers that I bought (the HD228 and the HD238). The HD228 was very bass heavy but it was not as bad as the HD238. The HD238 was very recessed sounding, and had an annoying low end distortion. I got rid of them (sold/returned).

ER-4P/S....hated them both with a passion. Horrible fit, microphonic cable, bass was AWOL....thin sounding...what a waste of my hard earned $$$.
