if I bought something for $$$$ that didn't sound as good as something that cost $$ I would feel ripped off; wouldn't you??
and BTW you said this ... direct quote from page 2
accurate enough for you??
and I never said that I actually walked around with the ibuds on full volume I said that was the only way that I could get any decent volume out of them; can you spell hypocrite?? well out of context and i'm LMAO. I use IEM's with better isolation so I DONT have to use full volume to get decent bass response etc. In fact I stated that I actually threw them out or gave them away. thats just one of the reasons I think they suck. and to the yuins I already said that they sound good for the price and I don't have to spend $$$$ to get enjoyment out of something; I said that I think they sound like crap when compared to the denon MD5000 and ultrasones and these aren't even the most expensive cans out there. for budget; I prefer a stock koss KC75 (re-cabled even better) which is definitely not expensive, especially if you bother to re-cable them yourself.
sure you are but there are better places for it ie. the yuin appreciation thread. Starting a thread that insinuates (ok not says) that all people that are enjoying their $$$$ cans are spending way too much money on something, that can be beat with something cheap may be just buying the marketing hype and not using their ears, is just plain condescending IMO. I'm not sure what sort of response you were hoping for??? sure this business IS rife with some snake-oil, but there are IMO tangible differences between cheap cans and expensive ones. whether that difference is actually worth the money is up to the consumer to decide.

like i said show me where i said the ibuds are balanced across the whole spectrum?
and yes i think the ibuds were better than SOME of the headphones.
and how does that say i said you got ripped off?
if that's how you want to interprete and that helps you make a point than interprete any whay you want!
so you are saying that if someones makes something for less than it cannot possibly be better than something for more? and like i said before just because it cost more doesn't automatically make it better.
i have clothes/sporting equp/motorbikes/food whatever that costs more than my friends have bought for, and if they say to me their stuff is better, do i feel ripped off? no, i am happy with what i bought. if you feel ripped off then that's YOUR problem!
man you keep using the IBUDS to somehow build your case instead of the yuins, what up? i mentioned the ibuds once but you haven't stopped!
if you feel like the ibuds help you put your point across then good for you, whatever rocks your boat.
you take so much out of context its not funny! i don't understand why you need to do it?
and i never said "YOU WALK AROUND WITH YOUR HEADPHONE FULL BLAST"! i said people just have to use a bit of control.
i find it funny how you say there's a law suit against apple for hearing damage but fail to recognise that if any headphone is too loud that also can do damage.
i never said people are spending way too much money on stuff than can be beat for cheap. there you go again. i originally said i prefer my yuins to more expensive stuff. sorry if that makes YOU feel like YOU got ripped off. the comment to watch how you spend your money was general advice to people, and you even agree with the snake oil comment?
whay do you feel like i'm being condescending when i say watch out for all the hype and listen for yourself? many reviews are mixed by people, some say this headphone is way better than that or this amp is way better than that.
best advice is to listen for yourself if you can, and you don't even have to believe me when i say my yuins are better. do you really have such low self esteem?
i'm over this issue with you qusp.
anyways, glad you can spell "insinuates"!
