way to ruin someone's hopes..but yeah its gone. being quite popular and discontinued i didn't expect it to be there very long. i would have grabbed it first but didn't read much about it and i wouldnt be using it very often probably.

Dang, I guess that takes care of that.

I think I'm going for the Thinksound Thunder, but I think I won't be able to order for a while. Does anyone object?

Huh? Point of order? => Order what you want, enjoy your music.

I saw UE Metro Fi 220s and I think UE super fi 4s at Best Buy, as well as Klipsh S4s. I haven't ordered yet because I don't have a credit card yet, I love being a teenage audiophile.

Would these be good as opposed to any other choices?

I recommend Hifiman RE0. It is very balanced and accurate. It suits all kinds of music very well, but if you are used to headphones with emphasized bass, they may take time to get used to. Its clarity, transparency, separation, tonal balance, vocal reproduction and treble extension are among the very best in universal fit IEMs, regardless of price. If you are on a budget, but still want to hear accurate, hi-fi sound, RE0 is a no-brainier.

JVC FXC80, S4 and XB40EX are recommended.........

Hmm, are you sure those JVCs can compete with something like RE0 or even Klipsch S4? Never heard of them before.

I don't think anyone has heard those yet. They're a newly-released model. Which brings us to the question of why they are recommended...

If you have a bank account ... consider Paypal. With a direct payment from your account, and/or balance transferred into the Paypal pot (I prefer the former). More and more vendors are accepting it.

(I just bought airline tickets with it.)

Metro.Fi 170 all the way.

Bassy, great for your choice of music, looks nice, great price.
