I just received the IM716 headphones from Buy.com

Unfortunately, the right channel is half the volume of the left channel. Nothing appears wrong with the wires etc. The package was totally sealed. I read some others with a similar problem. Maybe Buy.com has a bad batch.

Anyways, just waiting for the customer service dept at buy.com. Reading the horrible return policy:

All returns must include the following:
4. Original packing slip. Do not mail or dispose of the packing slip (for rebates) until you have examined and tested the product to your satisfaction.

Unfortunately, I threw the packing slip out once I checked the package. I wonder if this will nullify my return...

Also:
Unless otherwise stated below, you have 14 days from the date your product left the warehouse (regardless of when you actually took delivery of the product).

So everyone that hasn't gotten there product yet due to mail problems, I guess you can't return them if they don't work!! I've only been on hold for 30 minutes with customer service. So I decided to call the sales line which picked up in 5 minutes. And then they transferred me back to customer service when I said I needed to "return" something. What's another hour waiting on hold??

Buy.com is a terrible company. This was definately not worth the "deal" for the IM716.

Just for the record, the only other time I ordered something from buy.com, it was defective as well. I think this is the last time I ever order from them.

Even though they are new, it could be a bad filter. Worth taking the one that is bad out, and see if the sound is balanced. You can replace the filters, but they cost $15 for 5 pair from Ety (ER8 filters).

Or, you can just clean out the filter and use some foam inside the filter barrel, a mode some had done rather than pay for new filters. Just a suggestion. If it doesn't work, you can still return them for another pair.

I ordered mine from buy.com on 12/3 and just now got them. It will be fun comparing them against my ER6i and E2C over the next few days.

they're here

how many people are using the stock tips (ewww)
they are so sticky.
anybody have different tips they'd like to send me???

ps~ can you mod these tips by 1 layer off? which one? the smallest one or the largest one?

THESE ARE NOT AS UNBASSY AS I THOUGHT (w amp)
and yes, an ipod can power them straight, but i only did it for a few seconds, so i dont know if the sq suffers. i'm on the HD mode btw, not the BASS.

most of the time, people cut the smallest part of the triflage, thus the term 'biflage' comes into scene. i heard that triflage can get quite uncomfortable, by making them Biflage, they seem better.

by the way, im716 is meant to be mod, a.k.a podoctomy (i think i get the spelling wrong). The bass mode seems like too much, while the HD mode seems like too little for my liking. i wished that it can be somewhere between them

EDIT:: Does anyone get their unit and found out that it's faulty?
