I would at least keep them for when you want to relax with quiet music and no external intrusions. And, when used with the Nuforce Icon Mobile USB DAC amp ($99) you can use the NE-7M with the amp as gaming headphones with mic on your PC or Mac. One of the two headphone jacks will accept the 4 conductor 3.5mm plug and let you use the headset as a USB mic and headphone.

Played out Flo Rida's Low for the bass effect, sounds very strong, switched over to some Metallica, once again I love the overall sound. Also listened to some Paul Oakenfold songs, thought the bass was very strong. However, as these are my first in-ear type earphones, I'm still not too sure if I'll end up sticking with them. Just at the gym today it was impossible to hear anything else, I didn't realize there would be that much isolation, my friend was only able to get my attention by tapping my shoulder. It's also quite odd having a plugged sensation in my ears, and I felt a somewhat nauseous feeling having them in for too long. I just don't think headphones that I stick in my ear are my kind of thing . Are there any bass-centric earbuds that anyone here would recommend as replacements for the stock Apple earbuds? HeadphoneAddict's review was spot on and I love the way these sound, and their bass is great, but I feel like IEMs may not be the type of headphones for me, that being said, I'm going to stick with them for a bit and see if I can grow into using these type of headphones, and to think I almost ordered the $180 GX400s for my gaming needs. |
