I'm starting it here... Sennheiser IE8 vs. Westone 3
Jan 4, 2009 at 12:30 PM Post #241 of 269
Before I pull the trigger on the IE8, can anyone tell me if they hold up well when the volume is virtually 0? If the detail remains and they still sound nicely balanced? My Sony MDR-7509HD's scale really well and are most enjoyable, but my ER-4S's, while detailed, are too bass shy to enjoy at tiny volumes.

Heh heh... you're probably right, but it was scary, wondering if I should get an IE8 after already having customs. But you know, pretty good price, worth a shot, can probably sell it after. Wheeee again!

Advanced MP3 Players sent me an email about the out of stock IE8 that said that they would be in stock on 5/1/09. I thought for a minute they meant the first of May until i realized that they put day/month/year over there. Thank God.

How close the sound signature of IE8 compared to that of HD650? Best I have heard so far!

yeah, Uncle Erik told me to wait in my other thread.

Received the shipping notification email from minidisc today! They're being overnight expressed to me, so they should be here tomorrow

I heard something about an HD680. If it turns out to be true, then HD650 prices should drop

I just called Advanced MP3 Players! The guy who answered didn't say that it will be available today. He was just looking at the computer system.
I e-mailed them as he advised me. Waiting for response.
