    Random IEM / Headphone Rants

    Any RE262 users around? Thinking of picking up a used pair since it does pretty much everything the RE-1 is capable of save the sound stage. Looking at the specs you'd think it needs an amp to shine, but a lot of people claim it runs fine straight from their phones/DAP. Is this true? It would...

    RE-1s are here!! The Audeze cans go back to their box.....hibernate. The seller threw in a Fiio E3 as well which was a nice gesture. Giveaway time, too much junk lying around.....need to sell some cables as well

    Random IEM / Headphone Rants

    Yeah, the love affair with the RE-1 is set to resume. I just can't justify spending too much cash on a universal IEM. I know I'll buy the JH13 again someday. No idea about the Philips models. Haven't been following any of the new stuff at all. Benny!! C4 for ease of use, AK for great...

    Random IEM / Headphone Rants

    Life without an IEM sucks. The 40 min ride to work and back is unbearable. :@ Shure have a new flagship iem out, retarded pricing again. The 535, TF10, 4R and the rest of the more popular universals are not worth more than 200-250 in my opinion. None of this matters though ........ Found a...

    Headphones for flights, movie watching, mobile calls

    I can't comment on them sound wise. But a roommate of mine had these http://www.amazon.com/Skullcandy-Lowrider-Headphones--Line-S5LWCY-033/dp/B004P1HW6A/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1367851944&sr=1-2&keywords=headphone+with+in+line+mic Probably not the best sound......but seems to meet...

    Think I may have lost my EPH100's :mad: Any suggestions for mid-centric vfm iem? Ideally, under 50 USD but would be willing to splurge on a RE-1 (making that the fourth RE-1 I've owned) should I find one :P

    Kindle or Nook - which one?

    Thanks for all the information! I've been most fascinated by the paperwhite as well. Does everything I need and it is quite simplistic. Won't be reading content with images or colour so none of the others are particularly attractive.

    Kindle or Nook - which one?

    Very new to such devices and looking for advice. Never been a tablet fan but very keen on an e-reader of late. In short here's what I'm looking at Cheap (compared to the feature filled ones) Good under all kinds of light Will only be using it as a reader (not sure if the fancy ones do more...

    What do we have Heir?

    Straight through the DX without an amp? Why carry around an amp when the DX should pretty much give you all you need :) Or if budget and portability aren't issues go balanced source, balanced amp.

    What do we have Heir?

    Doesn't heir have their own amp? The Rendition?

    What do we have Heir?

    The audeze box is big enough for the cable in my case. Think westone has largish box. They call it the monitor vault/safe or something.

    What do we have Heir?

    Nice. Expensive though. Adjustments with just the fit? I'm using a solid silver core cable. It's like memory wire throughout its entire length! Annoying to store :)

    Will Vsonic GR06 be an upgrade over Klipsch S4

    Oops sorry! Didn't read the whole post. Thought it worked out to 4k plus from abroad.

    Will Vsonic GR06 be an upgrade over Klipsch S4

    Cant comment on the iems themselves since I haven't tried them, however they seem to be cheaper locally. http://www.hifinage.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=89&category_id=25&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=29

    mp3 player under 3k-4k

    I think you should search the net for suggestions. I'm not aware of what the best app might be. I know Denon has a free app that is suppose to have a decent EQ although I read it drains the battery quite fast. You could give it a try on the iPod. I use FLAC Player but only since my music is...

    mp3 player under 3k-4k

    You're likely to see more of change if you change your iems. The iPod touch is by no means a bad sounding source. Try using the EQ or investing in a music app with a good built in EQ and see if that makes you happy..........the next step would probably be changing your iems (especially if...

    If you can, hold on to them. I regret selling the JH13s. I just know I'll end up buying them again. :/ My audeze cables arrived today! There's 2 hours of work and a 40 min ride home between me and them. The agony is unbearable!

    The "Everyday" show-off thread !

    Thanks :) Those are the HE4s, I've had them quite a while now. The 5LE and the 500 are a bit darker, these are more like the HE6 on a budget, a whole 850 usd less than the 6s. They're a lot lighter than most orthos. I haven't heard my LCD2s as yet :banghead: no cable. I remember little of the...

    The "Everyday" show-off thread !

    No no! Dead serious as far as headphones/iems are concerned ........... one more pair of customs when I make up my mind on what I like. After that maybe a desktop amp and DAC, nothing more :P
