well, i see them come with giant earclips
 
anyone have experience with them?  do you need them with the clips on to stay in place in your ears, or can they be used normally without them and stay in place

 

[terradrive]

I used mine without the earclip. It stayed fine on my ears and once I ran with it and no problem at all.

I don't use the over ear clips either and so far so good. They stayed in my ears for a full 45min bike ride yesterday. You really shouldn't need to use them unless you have a real problem with fit or just want the added security and comfort. The cable slider does a good job too of holding them in place if you tighten it up.

I have tried my eterna with the supplied ear guides, but they are really big and really doesn't do much good. Maybe it's just me.

 

[swbf2cheater]

possible for someone to describe their gripes with the cord?  I hear its kind of stiff and annoying, what are your thoughts on it,

 

[SolidSnake3]

Eh I really don't find the cord to be that much of an issue. The microphonic's isn't too bad because of the over the ear style. I went for a long bike ride with my Eterna's yesterday and aside from some wind noise there really wasn't any issues. The cord is a bit bouncy sometimes but not a major problem and I think it's just fine for the price point of the iem's as well.

 

[Jonasklam]

I agree with above post. Bouncy at time is the right description, but not much of an issue. Acually I like the cord better on the eterna than the RE0.

thanks guys
 
thankfully i nabbed one of the last v1s on ebay

 

[SolidSnake3]

glad you see you got a pair, they really are an amazing iem for the price. Now comes the fun waiting part however, took mine about 3 weeks or so I believe.

 

[swbf2cheater]

JEEZ!  Hopefully I will earn enough on this VPD400 sale get have it next dayed to me.  I cant wait that long.  I will sit in the corner and rock for 3 weeks until they come lol
 
currently, I am headphone-less.  Recently sold off all my cans in search of fun an engaging.  I was told the eterna is THE ROCK OUT iem for my budget.  All I have are stock fuze and Sony Mdr-e10 buds :[
 
say a prayer for me, everyone so that I may last until the eternas arrive :!!!

 

[swbf2cheater]

bump for one last question
 
do you think a sansa fuze would power them to the max?  They've got a 18 impedance.
I ask because my sony mdr-e10 has a 16 impedance and there is only a minor difference when amped with my cmoy bb 2.02.  The difference is so subtle, I could barely hear the slight difference in forwardness.  
 
Anyone using a fuze with them?  

 

[Ohungry]

I would like to ask the same question as swbf2cheater and would also like to add on to the question:
how does amp change the sound of the eternas
and are the differences worth the price of an amp?
=P not to steal ur thread or anything, but i was also a bit curious
 
just ordered a pair of eternas the other night 2
seemed like rly unique pair of IEMs so i thought i might as well check them out =)

The only over-ear pieces I've ever liked are the ones are the PFE ones.  I don't like the Eterna ones.  I didn't like the IE8 ones.  The PFE plastic pieces are simple, well designed, and just do the job smartly.  Most everything else out there is bulky junk.
