more isolation would mean more microphonics

I think maybe it's due to increased isolation with the olives. Also, the Custom-3s seem to respond very nicely to external amplifications. I've been listening to my ipod nano amped through my headfive, and it definitely provides some subtle improvements to the sound. I don't think an amp is a necessity for these, but it does provide some benefit. Thanks! George |
