But does the $10 phone sound good? Hell I'm tempted to pick one up that cheap
Kyocera Hydro?

Dammit :/

Maybe you can just get some Crazy Glue, the one with the tiny brush, and repair them. It is not a very clear picture, but if the wires going to the driver are fine, I guess you can do it.

My newly bought Sansa Clip Zip and my special, limited edition blue jvc' HA-S500 (only 1 was ever made)

For those of you who actually know the story behind these s500's: shhhh

No, the driver died, I don´t know the right terms, but it´s like the membrane separated or something, so it won´t sound, despite if I glue them

Yup way over price, almost too much for the Mid-Fi thread as well.

Sorry to heat that. But now you have an excuse to get new IEM's. Unless, of course, the warranty is still on.

They have one year warranty, but no, the cable was dying, and It was my fault, the cable got caught on my knee when I was crouching and it died :/ Whatever...I guess that i´m going to get something like the Narmoos S1.

Good luck with your next choice then. Take care.

I guess I always considered it budget as I swapped in discounted parts that gave the best bang for buck like "Trigger's Broom."

This started as an IPod Touch 2nd Gen(Running Capriccio App) -> Denon AH-C300 earphones.

NP, this is why we had to set a price limit on this thread. Peoples definition of budget usually relates to the number of zeros in their income...

Everyone's benchmark for "budget" is different which is why for the $200 rule. The idea is that anyone can, in principle, get the same thing for about the same money.

I don't have a camera handy so I can't post my latest obPhoto: Sansa Clip Zip that I've photographed previously + Koss ProDJ100 + Shure SRH1540 pads. Total cost around $150 including the uSD card. The Shure pads are a pricy side-grade to the more commonly used ATH-M50 pads. Less bass reverb, more comfort.

There's an IEM I"m pairing with Clip Zip atm that sounds stupendous. 

All I can give you guys atm is this half blurry image.




Don't you hate that? Have something intriguing to show everyone and the camera stuffs out! 

I can say one thing though. Watch. This. Space.
 

Any more word on what those iems are for the curious?
