The iPod earbuds sound better than people here said they did. I'd call that bang for the buck... but we'll see how the Sharps work out... already loving the isolation...

Originally Posted by oluv has anyone ever tried not to put the ex71 so deep inside the ear channel? i've never experienced this "harsh" treble mentioned here, until i once put them really deep, aiming directly at the ear-drums. this way the sound becomes really strange and shrill. the treble sounds as if it was whistling. but normally i don't put them that deep, only so far that i get a good seal and that they don't fall out with the slightest pull, although they still tend to fall out if i pull a bit too much. but this way they sound quite ok and i would even say that i prefer to enhance the treble a bit to get a nice sound of them. sure they will never sound like grados or something, but if you eq them a bit they can sound quite acceptable. of course everyones ear is different and one might get this shrill sound directly at the beginning, but if i don't put them too deep, they sound everything else than "shrill". |
