Hi, I'm fastasleep and I'm an alcoholic.
But really... I don't think I can post new threads yet so basically, I'm here doing research to replace my NOCS NS500s after the volume buttons stopped working after a few months. Amazon doesn't stock them anymore, so it'd cost me like $40 to send them to sweden for replacement...so, looking at new options for IEMs.
I am curious about two I came across in marketing emails today, I won't link to anything for fear of getting tagged as a spammer, but
V-Moda Zn, which I think are their first IEMs for a while now, are just now available for order via them and not at Amazon yet, so kinda waiting to see reviews. I've had several pairs of V-modas over the years and liked them fine, but these ones are $180... but they're marketing them to be of super duper high quality, so, curious.
Came across the thread on these here on this site, so figured this is a good place to keep an eye on user feedback.
Linea N°2 In Ear Headphones by Caeden (never heard of 'em, but look pretty) ($80)
The NOCS were pretty decent sounding once I figured I had to cram them further in my ears to get any bass (the medium fittings were a little large, but small was too small), but the button thing, I dunno.
Suggestions welcome, needs to have 3 button controls for iOS and not look stupid.
Cheers
