Good deal. I respect that

.

EDIT: Hah... I just got a security call from my bank because me buying my IE8 came up as a suspicious purchase. The lady asked me if I had just bought something from Advanced MP3 Players and before she could even finish the question I was like "Heeeell yeah I did."

...Not really, but I almost did.

Well just listened to Bon Ivers album in flac on my iriverh340 with EQ at zero for 1st time in about 4 yrs.

IE8s set at level 3, totally blown away, amazing. You wont regret getting these babies.

Need to try out on the Fuze next to compare.
Over the ear for me.

I just like that you can switch between both styles, and so easily too.

I'm so excited to get mine

. I wish I could see pictures of how they fit in the ear.

So is there any way to get the IE8s to isolate really well? Like as well as the Klipsch X10?

 

[Fruits]

Isolation is fine for me, i was in town yesterday listening at a normal level (for me) and i could only hear cars when they drove up right beside me about a foot or 2 away, couldnt hear any talk or anything else. Just right for me, i like to hear when im about to be hit by a car lol. Ive been told Comply tips help isolation alot, im getting some soon to try. Its certainly not an issue for me, im just getting the complys to see if i can get even more comfort although its pretty good as it is.

if you put comply's on them I am sure you get plenty of isolation

 

[moseboy]

When you do get the Complys, I'd like to hear how they make the IE8 sound. At this point, I am unfortunately guessing that they make it sound worse based on my experience with the Complys and my SE530, but I'd love to find out I'm wrong.

Hopefully get them tommorow in the post but could be a few days due to New Year and all.

I guess you are not the only one Fruits. I'm another who's confused by all the amazing feedbacks of this wearing method...

From the first day i received my IE8, i've been wearing them the "upside-down" way when at home/work, i.e. when i'm not walking much, and wearing them the "Sennheiser-intended" way when i go out -- less microphonics indeed.

After reading this post and all the feedbacks i've tried to compare the difference again, and still found them sound identical to me...

Yes to my experience I love how u can wear them both way easily. yeh i might get to post some pics when i got home with my camera.

oh and i wear glasses too sometimes, and both wearing ways dont have a problem with that at all.

Here's where i got mine:http://http://www.askdirect.co.uk/uv...earch&l=20&f=0

I've got the 20% off coupon from AdvancedMp3Players in front of me, and it says clearly in the corner:
Please Note: IE8 earphones not included in 20% off offer.

Sorry!

 

[nsx_23]

Is it just me or does the Sennheiser cable have connectors which look almost exactly like the UE ones?

*Note that I don't actually have IE8 at the moment. They will be here next week!
