Must be the first guy to get it here :lol:
Anyways ehre goes the pics
The Box:
Contents. 4 rubber pads, 3 foam ones. One foam pad comes wiht the earplugs, 2 pairs in plastic cover, dabba for the phones and a warranty card. no cable winder
Up close:
Also have to mention, it comes with a right angle headphone jack no more headaches when using it with phones/PMPs!
First impression, didnt like it at all. Plugged it into my N95, all I could hear was a LOUD hisss. The sound wasnt coming well, sounded far worse then the PL-30.
After 2 days of burn-in (left it at office playing flacs ) its sounding much much better obviously better than the PL-30
Bought the IEMs for 80SGD. very expensive this one
So a summary of pros and cons:
Pros:
1. Right angle connector - very convinient
2. Complete sound isolation ( with the default foam bud ) - Couldnt hear a thing with music turned off when my colleague was shouting at me. Can be a pro or a con.
3. It sounds better
Cons :
1. Read that PL-50 with Balanced armature stuff needs no burn in. infact it does.
2. Once you put it in your ear its VERY DIFFICULT to take it out. it even hurts :|
3. High Price - I feel it does not warrant that much of a price increase then the Pl-30. I mean, the level of SQ you get from a 35$ PL-30, dont get that much with the 80$ PL-50.
4. If you could hear any hiss from your PMP or source with a PL-30, get ready to hear a much louder hiss!
