Hi there, This is my first post so I'm just going to introduce myself shortly with the gear I am familiar with and what I do with it. I'm Austrian-Polish but live in Los Angeles now. I want best possible sound with best quality bass for listening to mainly Trip Hop and Big Beat. Maybe I'm...

I'm imagining some kind of shell case for the ipod classic (160gb) that has a flip open section or maybe a pouch on the back thats wide enough to hold your IEMs, but still svelt enough to fit in a pocket comfortably?   Does such a thing exist?   I currently use a little stick on pouch i...

I like my bass. Which the IE80 has. But ive recently gotten into jazz,and i wanted to know which of these is best with dubstep AND jazz? If there are any other IEMs that fit the bill a little better,feel free to inform me. Now for my likes/dislikes about these IEMs. I love the TF10s price,and...

Hey guys, I want to first thank you for taking the time to check out my thread. I made this thread because I recently dealt with a seller to buy a pair of Sennheiser HD 800s (Headphones), Sennheiser IE 80s (IEMs aka In-Ear-Monitors) and a pair of Bose Quiet Comfort 15 (Limited Edition "Blue"...

Shure se 535 It is one of the top class stage monitoring earbud for amateurs. It has many credits for excellent voice but also many critics for its think and super long cable. Definitely, the cable is hand made with very good material but it is way to inconvenient to carry. So many users look...

Ok guys, I've researched a bunch of thread here and I cannot decide if I should order the IE80's from amazon.de for $304.00 or from razordogaudio.com for $350.00.   At first glance of course from amazon.de since it is cheaper so, why not? But I saw a thread someone made here asking if...

Hey guys I need help deciding on an upgrade from my M50s and Etymotic HF3s. Both are very neutral and I am looking for something more bass heavy.    I do not plan on ever investing in an amp because my music listening is almost always from a laptop or my iphone and is generally on the go...

Hi guys,    I'm looking for a replacement for my Sennheiser IE80s. I've owned 2 pairs of the IE8s and 1 pair of the IE80s which unfortunately were recently stolen. I've been getting by on my HD25-1s for commuting but I don't think I can last much longer!    I definitely don't want to go...

I plan on buying the Sennheiser Ie80 and want to know how to properly store the earphones/cables when not in use.   I am replacing my old Sennheiser Ie7 after the sound went out on the left side of the earphones. When I bought the Ie7 they came with a box shown below in the picture. I...

Hello, I got an offer on ie80s which is somewhat hard to turn down. I have these pics to go by:       I have also done some research and they do seem legit so far but... I would like to have more input. Thanks. ( I'm asked for a few more pics and serial number o:)

As the title suggests, I have some Atrios that I'm not 100% happy with anymore. The bass is great, but I like them a lot more when I use an equalizer to boost the treble. Are there any iems on the market with deep, strong bass (not on par with the atrios necessarily, as few items are on par with...

Hi All, I've had IE8s for 2 years and need to replace them (too much wear and tear / accidents unfortunately). I love the outstanding soundstage and bass of the IE8s, so looking to buy IE80s with Toxic's silver cable which would run about $550. Both would come overseas to the US so I wanted to...

I'm searching for a new pair of my "perfect" in ears for quite some time now and since I have IE80 that still work flawlessly I'm not in that much of a hurry but I want to be ready when the times come which is now sooner and sooner.    Not sure how to completely describe the sound I like but...

Hi everyone,   I am using HTC One and Sennheiser ie80 now. I am looking for a dap/dac+amp which I can use connected to my laptop and carry it outside. Should I get a Fiio E18/iBasso D42 which can be connected to my phone and laptop or a Fiio x3 which can be used as a usb dac? My budget is...

  Hi,   Does any of you guys have experienced BOTH Sennheiser IE8 and HD25?   I agree this is a strange request as they are way different but still, can someone comment on the following : - sound quality between the two - isolation - ergonomics (cable noise...)   I have at...

Hello folks!   I am a newbie in the high end IEM business. I am looking for a piece for fun listening. The two factors that I am considering is excellent bass and expansive sound-stage. After a lot of drooling over a lot of options (including Bowers & Wilkins C5, Monster Turbine variants...

Hi,    I would appreciate some views regarding a dilemma.   I am getting a pair of Sennheiser IE 80 earphones with a ACS custom sleeves. However, I tried the AiAiAi TMA-1 headphones and like the warm sound signature which lacks a fatiguing treble. So my question is whether I am likely to...

  A while back i had to pack up my audiophile HI-FI rig & was no longer able to enjoy  music. Than as good fortune would have it, recently a friend handed over his redundant AKG K240M (600ohm originals). I paired these up with the Essence STX card & since than i have rediscovered the joys of...
