Thanks skalkman. It's great to have a musicians view. I'm not a musician, but it was the quality of the drums that really struck me first of all with my SD3's.
Have bought the SD-3 somtime ago, but failed to like it. The presentation lives up to its name: it's really a "stage" diver. Bass has a strong presence, highs are smoothened to a degree that I cannot find it neutral. Mids are upfront and frankly I'm not a mid-centric guy.
One very good thing about the SD-3s was its fit- its nearly perfect.
After reading this post further, realised that perhaps the SD-2 would be better for me.
I got mine yesterday changing them from a pair of RE400 that broke twice. I only have one word for the sound from them : addictive. Detailed enough without being grinding, bass is plentifull and tight and there is a sweetness to the sound that make me wanting to go through my whole collection just with the SD2. Fantastic earphone. I do have two questions though:
1. The pelican case is massive, does anyone know of a high quality but smaller ( more portable ) case ?
2. Considering an X5 as I am not big fan of my iPhone's sound. Do you think it will be a good pairing?
Westone has their Monitor Vault i think it's about $20 on Amazon, it's rather tiny when compared to the Pelican 1010 and it's very pocket-friendly.
Haven't tried the X5 as of writing this post, though I'm on the list for FiiO:s "X5 world tour" and will probably be getting my sample around the international release of the X5, which should be somewhere around the middle of march.
Thanks ! I did look for cases on amazon but nothing worthwhile came up. Might get the X5 anyway and tgive it a try.
Hi all,
I am very interested in a pair of SD2 or 3s, but hope someone will be kind enough to answer this as I often have trouble finding something that fits:
What are the diameters of the flanges included?
Thankful for answers!
