Can that plug into an audio out and a mic input at the same time?


Yep, on Amazon if you zoom the box pic is says it has the adapter included as it should.

Got my E80 today!
 


That CoiL person was right. These E80 are screwing huge. Never gonna fit in small ears like the Sport 2 and Elation can

It`s not all about size (and by size I don`t mean only body size, nozzles too) - physical design and ergonomics are also important. Like I said, I have small ears and ear-canals and because of that I need extra small tips usually + deep insertion which also requires angled and littlebit longer nozzle than E80 has. For example Piston2 is kinda "on edge" with its size/shape. Ok, E80 has smaller body, I agree, but short nozzle and exit point/method of cable still stay littlebit problematic for me. Yes, I could also use longer other type of tips but for that price I expect more. I wear IEM`s over ear and I need snug as possible fit. Another design example, despite being much larger, is ATH-IM50/KZ ATE, which has angled long nozzles and fits deep into ear-canal with extra small tips and gives me very snug and comfort fit and doesn`t even stick much out of my little ears with its body design. 
In addition, I find E80 pretty cheap and ugly looking - deal with it, matter of taste.
 
But why am I even explaining this LOL? I do not need to explain my subjective opinion and personal needs to someone. Whatever

Shouldn`t even started to say something about E80. Seems almost everything that`s being hyped in Head-Fi threads is forbidden to throw negative point of view at.
Sorry for not jumping on hype train.

It`s actually 3.14 Pi that was mentioned earlier 1-2 pages back.

But there`s also higher priced dual-dynamic version of it too. Google.

Has anybody tried these?
http://www.dasetn.com/dynamic-unite-dx1-iem-professional-sound-noise-isolating-hifi-earphoneblue_p3401.html

Seems to be detachable cable and pretty shell for $45.

What is that site? Klipsch x10 for $50? Obviously can't be the real deal, but I mean, they also have triple driver IEMs etc, does anyone know what the quality is like? On the x10 description it says "100% of the original units", does that mean same driver but homemade otherwise, and how would that compare to the original then..?

I take it they are US based? Do they ship internationally? Couldn't find much info on that on the site.


They do not ship internationally I'm afraid. I got my pair from penon audio but they were $69 shipped there.

My friend loved Piston 2 but it broke.  He tried my Tenore, M200, Singolo, Fidelio S2, and Soundsoul S-018 but none were bassy enough for him (he likes EDM).
 
Do KZ ATE, ED9, Soundmagic E80, Macaw, or anything under $50 have enough bass for him?

I heard Fidue A65 might fit the bill, but we are talking about $65 IEM.  Or go for the kill with TTPOD T1E, Newegg has them for under $24.  ATE, ED9, Macaw and E80 (didn't listen much to these yet) don't have enhanced bass.  Maybe also look into VSD3, that one has a nice bass.

ED9 with gold nozzles or KZ r35 with foam-mod. Latter sounds very similar to Piston2 btw :wink:
