Andddd, picked up the MC5 too! Might be selling some of my earphones soon, heheh.

I'm getting my TF10s replaced from UE as they broke. X10s should be a good change. It was an impulse buy, only because they were going for $95. Didn't make sense to buy another pair of TF10s. For $95 I guess it's not a bad deal to try 'em out. All the reviews I've read suggest that they offer...

Bought a pair of Klipsch instead since I already own the TF10s. That + HiFiMan HM-101. No more buying for another 6 months now. Wanted to pick up the Etymotic MC5s which go on sale later but won't be picking those up now.

Gaah! Remolding is tedious, shipping to US and back is expensive. And getting it done here is even more expensive. Just hoping someone can point me to a place where I can get the connector wire soldered again.

Does anyone know any place here in Bombay where I can get IEMs repaired? The connector on one of my TF10 units has broken (soldering for one of the wires has come off) and I'd like to get the same repaired (see pic below to understand what's broken). I am getting a replacement from UE/Logitech...

I remember reading about JS Equipments from my Chip and Digit days. They used to retail all the latest drawing tablets and nifty gadgets. The prices are pretty great, I must say. M6 is a bit pricey, perhaps they will be making a correction. But HT-21, CC51 and SP51 are all listed at very good...

Nice review Santhosh! I must say I do agree with parts of your review whole heartedly. Amongst all the IEMs I own, I keep going back to these when I want to get some serious listening done due to their non-fatiguing nature. Being the first pair of BA IEMs I own, I really like these a lot and I...

@Santhosh: Yeah, the punch is missing. These seem a bit too.. dry for my taste. Not enjoyable for long periods of time. I think I'm going to swap these for the CC51s if I can. Joker definitely knows about his IEMs, but Guttenberg is pretty awesome - he's recommended some excellent audio gear...

RE-ZERO owners - any tips to get some bass out of 'em bassless units? I'm using the Arrow with max bass boost but it still feels like there's something missing. The clarity and treble is nice, so far I don't find it sparkly for my ears (which is a relief because I'm still waiting on my TF10s) -...

Would recommend MEElectronics M9 ($17) and M16 ($25) ahead of PL-21. Both offer a great VFM - own a pair of M9 and have tested M16s. Good bass and very good sound quality for the price. You can see how they match up against PL21 here: Multi-IEM Review - 160 IEMs compared (Denon AH-C360 & H2O...

Does anyone have a coupon I could use? Could use some help here!

Would have considered these if they had manufactured these earlier - when I was considering the DBA-02. But then I instead purchased the TF10s for a killer price. So a dual BA IEM will have to wait now.

@Nikunj how much did you pay for shipping?

Yes, mine goes on for over 30+ hours, haven't tested it extensively but yes, about 30 is for sure :D Stepdance is a bit out of budget but an amp I want to try, along with TTVJ Slim - let's see when can I afford both of these. For now I'm really, really happy with my Arrow - love the slim...

Congrats! I have just a few earphones to try them out with, but the Arrow is pretty fantastic I must say. I'm really happy with the sound - it's brilliant :D
