Yeah, I've noticed that with my skullcandy tips (huge hole), it sounds slightly more airy than tips with smaller holes.

What eartips do people use for these? I've seen a few people saying T-100/TX-100 comply tips fit them. My RE400's silicone tips fit them perfectly, but the RE400's use T-400/TX-400 comply tips. So far my best fit have been some silicone tips from a $15 pair of Skullcandy's from 10 years ago...

These just arrived, took 10 min to find the right tips, but all g. Black back and red nozzle is blowing my mind, what do I, want to break em in, test all the filters and everything but I can't take em out of my ears. SEND HELP, s>akg k7xx red's LOL

On the hunt for new IEMs. The build quality of my RE400s were terrible. I considered soldering on a new jack and replacing the cable entirely, but can't be bothered.   HOWEVER, I LOOOOVE THE SOUND.   Any recommendations for IEMs that sound similar, or even just good IEMs below 150 USD?  ...

@shadyrocker Congratz!

I'm reading up on the Creative Auvana Live since I can't find much on the Panasonics and someone said they'd be better with more spacious earpads. Not sure if that would take away from the bass though. My definition of fun is SHRILLING HIGHS with THUNDEROUS BASS and a soundstage so big that you...

That's not even an HE-500 anymore. Sounds like a lot of fun just to build!   This is really interesting because it's so cheap. Do you think these would pair well with Alpha pads?

Interested in the PM-1 for Canada. What are the dimensions of the box and the weight of the package?

What are YOUR favourite FUN headphones?   I'm literally just bored and wondering what people like. I've tried a bunch and want to know what other people think.   Fidelio X2 - SO MUCH FUNNNN HE-400i - Meh level of fun HE-560 Exciting on the right tracks, boring on the wrong ones K7XX - FUN...

Green for sure

They're not the best built pair of cans but certainly not cheap feeling either. Just don't throw them across your room and you'll be fine.

Yeah, HM5 pads are great too, especially for the $$.

M50x without an amp.

K553s or M40x's with ZMF pads are easy recommendations

M40x's are amazing but they really need a pad upgrade to make them shine. Maybe you can get them now and later get the $50 USD ZMF pads?

How about a 4 pole to 3 pole splitter so you can grab a little mic and expand your choice of headphones?

Jaybird X3s are great but a bit over budget.   I'd also recommend SE215s. You wear the cable over ear so it won't fall out while working out. Microphonic noise is reduced from wearing the cable over ear (important when you're moving around while listening). They don't have those clip thingies...

I can't seem to like the sound of anything else more than the RE400s are this price range. I've tried SE215s, MA750s and EPH100s...I would've paid $50 more for RE400s if they were built better ):

Some nights, I listen to my HE-560s lying down on my back and fall asleep

I've heard the K7XX, X2 and HD700, and have no experience with the other two.   1. bass quantity X2 K7XX HD700   2. treble quantity HD700 K7XX X2   3. Soundstage Width X2 HD700 K7XX (This is very close from my experience)   Imaging Accuracy HD700 X2 K7XX      ...

If you enjoy your 425s, you won't find it worth it to spend upwards of $500 on new IEMs. Nothing sounds as dry/analytical as Shure's IEMs 400-500 series IEMs. But I wonder if you'd enjoy a more fun sounding IEM since you want more bass. Try demoing some "funner" IEMs and see if you like them. If...

It's pretty normal to hear that when shutting off your DAC. Shouldn't damage anything.

RE400S are pretty nuts after their break-in period.
