well if phonak's hearing aids, sound as good as the pfe's (after being half deaf, obviously), then i would terribly mind lol

Today I notice a small piece leaving my phonak's housing. I try to open body and fix it with glue. While opening sequence, I broke that metalic look cover. Because it was glued to the body. After I split glue to my creative zen x-fi's monitor. When I try to clean it, it expanded all over the monitor and didn't clean. After I tryed to fix phonak and glad it work. Now everythink works well but my beatifull new earphone looks terrible now and my x-fi too. These phone realy fragile, be carefull while opening it. And don't try to fix something while your hands shaking because of low blood sugar.

This is my 0 hour burn in first impression
http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f103/p...ml#post5413126

After 5 days in my possession with almost 16 hours/day of burning in with music and 20 Hz sine wave. + listening to it (silicone tips + gray filter), I don't know why suddenly, the bass is getting fatter. I am not sure if this is my PFEs ?? . Let me take it off and check it out, whether I am listening to NE-7Ms, .... Yes, this my PFEs... I am suprised !!!. Very beautiful bass. Deep and realistic. I very happy and hope don't drop any tears of joy

. Diana Krall's voice is sooo lovely and lively. So many years I did not having this kind of feeling since my first encounter with Sony MDR-CD3000. Basshead will changed their mind if they listened to this fully burnt in PFEs.

Does anyone has this kind of experiences?

Thank you.

My PFE's sounded sweet right out of the box, and remained the same a week later. I don't believe these IEM's to benefit from a burn in period.

I did find if inserted to a certian depth creating a certian seal, the bass was greatly improved with using the stock gray filters...

 

[bakhtiar]

I do insert it like usual, and quite particular with it, and yes Its sound very nice out of the box, but today, it is like listening to a BETTER PFEs

, just like a sub woofer has been switched on.

Doesn't burn-in only work with dynamic iems?
Because the pfe are armature ones and I was pretty sure that they sound their best from day one.

 

[cassiohui]

some balanced armature iem's require burnin, e.g. klipsch custom-3, er6i, creative aurvana in-ear. i prefer to trust my ears on this subject - all three definitely does NOT sound the same after burn in.

that said, no, i don't think pfe's requre burning in either. but someone on another forum did say he thinks that the pfe's bass improved with burnin.

I checked with my Foreign Post Office and my pair hasn't even arrived my city yet... Stupid Royal Mail (or actually "the overseas postal service for delivery in INDIA") ZZzz

Just.... Can't...... Wait....

No EQing and effects. Totally straight/flat settings. Very nice treble and I am loving it. Clear and accurate. . Bass it there but still more to come . Soundstage is wide and very good instrumentals separation. I do agree with dfkt's reviews, this IEMs not quite suitable for bass head. With some bass boost, everything should be fine. Playing Diana Krall's, The Girl in the Other Room, FLAC Sibiliances ? Sounds natural to my ear. There were some hassles to purchase this IEMs from Singapore, but worth of it. This do reminds me to Sony MDR-CD3000 but with better treble. Thank you

IMO Bass with grey filters is very dependant on achieving a perfect seal. In my case using large T130 foam tips.

Enjoy.
