For portable phones i have tasted px200, sportapro , er6 , ex71, koss plug , HE50, e888, and now ksc75 which i am currently enjoying. But the e888 keeps calling me!!! i even dream of it! i always remember it sounded great when i listened to metallica ride the lightning's call of the kthulu. Does it makes any sense to have e888 when i already have ksc 75? e888 is not audiophile quality compared to er6 yet i keep missing them as though they are something special to me. Arghzz i have love sick. The e888 is not durable and i have spoiled two of them. ( my 2nd pair is broken by my friend). Guys , help me !! Relieve my love sick for e888

With the E888, it's all about that wonderfully rich, smooth midrange. Just get another one......you know you want it!

Yes the mid range , this aspect of sound is very important to me. e888 arh...

Any e888 lovers? i hope i am not the only one. i may start an appreciation thread for e888 and i think they well deserved it.

are you refering to the ittsy bitsy sony earbuds?

they are sexxy as heck. i like mine. they dont get as much playtime as they probably deserve because they dont isolate goodly, but they sound superb.

which color of the e888 you have?

 

[nikongod]

black plastic/rubber with shiny silver accents/grills. it is the chort cord version, from my minidisc days. perfect if your player has a long cable remote with a built in jack....

i do like em.

im off to play emn out of my small mp3 player while i do laundry.

Maybe give the Audio-Technica ATH-CM7/Ti a try? I've owned th E888s before, and judging from memory, I thought the CM7s were similar, but somewhat better in sound quality.

As for build quality, not really a contest at all.

its not the matter of sounding better , its the matter of how it present the sound. In terms of SQ wise er6 or ksc-75 is better but why i still miss e888?

i tried cm3 , it has good clarity but don have the warm feeling of e888. For months in Head fi i realise the way how phones present the music is more important than technical side of them

They ath cm7 and e888 sound quite different

You have my sympathy man. I use my e888 daily, and I prefer it over my um2. In terms of sound quality, um2 outclass e888 by a long shot. But e888 is more convenient for immediate music. Another reason why I love my e888 with Karma is that it it never sounds thin. I guess that's just that the magic of mid-range, right?

I'm having a quick trip down memory lane before a pair of Beyer DT880s arrive later this week, ready for my long anticipated review...

...Anyways... you might want to give the MDR-A44L a try... it was mentioned here a while back as a bit of a wonder-'phone... and, I must admit (again) that it is quite a compelling listen for how little money it costs
