Multi-IEM Review - 352 IEMs compared (Pump Audio Earphones added 04/03/16 p. 1106)

So, I decided to switch over to the bigger tips, and use it as a shallow insert, instead. So, these things are actually comfortable (and it turns out I can wear them over ear)! Two things, though. The cable seems really weak, and easily breakable. I hope these last for at least a while.
 
Two, are the normal tips (the type used in flanges) supposed to be itchy? These make the inside of my ear itchy somehow. I had this problem with my last IEM, but I thought if was caused by them putting so much pressure on my ear canal.
 
I'll find out tomorrow how much they isolate. I hope these work well!
 
Edit: I still have problems with taking IEMs out. I can't figure out how to make it so the era drum isn't pulled on from the change in air pressure...

Could you do a review on the MEElectronics M-duo? http://www.ifans.com/blog/86501/

 
Don't have one at the moment. Maybe in the future.

So I received my IEM today... How do I put it in and take it out? I've seen that it involves pulling on the top of the ear but I don't exactly understand what I should be doing.

 
You have to break the seal with the eartip. You can do that by grabbing the IEM housing and adjusting the nozzle inside your ear so that the seal is broken but I usually just pull the top of my outer ear upward and out while also tugging at the earphone. This breaks the seal.

Are you talking about the silicone tips?  Like I said, these really need to be used with foam for optimal comfort. I don't think pressure can cause your ear canal to itch; there may be some other cause (although silicone is supposed to be hypoallergenic and all). 
 
The cables are thin but it's a $20 earphone. There are only a few that have good cables in the price range - MEElecs, for example.

hi joker, nice review of t-peos h-100. do you consider T-peos h-100 and RE-400 a big upgrade coming from VSD1?


Not a big upgrade, but you'll notice the difference. More important IMO are the signature differences. The H-100 is thinner, brighter, and heavier on the subbass. The RE-400 is not as bassy as the VSD-1 and has smoother treble.

If you've tried pulling the tip of your earlobe away and it isn't working, try pushing the back of your ear, right where the canal entry would be.  This is another way to break the ear canal seal.

Hello everyone!
 
I'm looking for an iem with a very long cable, about 2-3 meters (8' or more inches). I'm not interested in using an extension cord. Anyone know some model with this specs?
 
Thanks a lot, guys!

iSK SEM5 and SEM6 have 3m cables but I don't know how they sound.

The EP-100s block out a good amount of sound. It makes me happy

Really looking forward to the upcoming reviews of Triple.Fi 10, IE800, S1/S2, 7550!
A bit sad you won't include the Dirac DSP corrected XTZ EarPhone-12.
The technology have great potential.
 
Would be interesting to see CK100Pro, Stagediver SD-2/3 and JH13 Pro added to the list.

Hope this is okay to post here. First off, thank you for all the information/review of the IEM's. I am looking for a balanced/warm/neutral set of IEM"s that are comfortable. Problem is the budget, just $30. =P I was thinking of trying to get the Vsonic GR99, if I can find it. Or a Nuforce NE-600X. Any suggestions out there? If this is not a good place to post, please, Moderator or Admin delete it. =D Posted in the Introductions, Help and Recommendations Sub-Forum.
