Well, I don't have an amp yet but these are my sources for the moment. Yes, I managed to softbrick my phone. Gonna restore an older system image to fix it.

I didn't know till I came down from level 4 to level 3. Happen to see Sony's section and just walked in to see if there was anything interesting. To my surprise, I saw the EX-1000 going for only S$639, which was a whole S$160 off the usual price. Couldn't resist the temptation in the end and got them. Been eyeing them for a while but couldn't justify paying RRP for them so it's much welcomed at that pricing.

Nice, did they come with the hybrid silicone foam tips ? I have the MDR-EX310 - if they are anything to go by your MDR-EX1000 should sound amazing.

Nice work!  That amp looks pretty sweet and I'm sure it sounds just as sweet.

  All these DIY projects makes me wish I took all those lessons from basic and advanced electronics more seriously.

A very pleasurable listening experience....and no EQ required.

Nice, I gave almost the same rig to my gf (but with the clip +) and it is a pleasurable listening experience indeed.

Next time I buy headphones, which will be a while because my job sucks, I definitely want to try something higher up the line from AT. These sub-$50 ones sound quite good!

ES7 sounds/looks delicious.
M50 did not impress me.

I have the Desire. Which music player are you using on yours and how do you find Dolby mobile?
 
Cheers
 

I am currently using the default music player, I've tested few other players too, and my choice is PowerAMP. That'll be the one I will purchase. I use the Dolby Mobile or srs wow HD, only while watching movies etc. but never with music. I guess it is useful, but i rarely use it tho.

Yeap, 3 pairs of hybrid silicone foam tips. They do the job of isolation for me.
 
The EX-1000 does sound amazing. I'm mightily impressed by Sony this time round.

my ex300 and ex1000 are 2 different worlds.  my ex300s are my first expensive purchase ($80 when they came out) and i will always keep them, i like something about them.  But if you are thinking they sound the same because they are sony, in my opinion they don't.  ex1000 has a wide open sound stage that you can't really pinpoint.  ex300s are fun, ex1000s are amazing. 
 
...completely different sounds coming out of these 2 iems.  you wouldn't guess they were the same manufacturer.
 
i added my ex1000s with my practical devices xm6 amp , and i think i said "wholey ****" atleast 10 times in past 2 months.
