Hey everyone. For the past year or so I have been listening to high quality music with my Sennheiser HD 650's. My setup is currently the HD 650's paired with the Schiit Bifrost DAC w/ usb and the Schiit Valhalla Tube Amp. I have my DAC plugged into my laptop with a usb cable where I play my...

Most great earphones do not have controls. The choices are quite limited. Things which I have found so far (not short list) - Sony MDREX38I - NOCS NS400 (not sure if it does work with the sgs2). Works with apple products. No mic, has 3 button remote - Soundmagic E10 - Altec Lansing...

      INTRO   Anyone browsing this forum has probably already had their formative experience with music. Maybe it was a live performance. Maybe it was a demo at an audio dealer, or a nice car stereo, or maybe even a pair of headphones. Whatever it was, it sparked an interest into...

There's a saying here at head-fi: "welcome to head-fi, sorry for your wallet." Buying headphones is such an addiction for many of us.  We just keep craving to try the newer and better thing. So what was the IEM that got you hooked, like a gateway drug that led you to harder stuffs?  It isn't...

Users of Apple’s iPhone and iPod are sometimes dissatisfied with the comfort and sound quality of the standard Apple headphones for the devices. As the iPad doesn’t come with headphones, consumers need to consider what type of headphone is best for them.   The best advice for the consumer...

I was just wondering if anyone has tried these? I have them and think they are pretty good for under $30 which is what I paid for them and what seems to be their street price. I definitely liked them better than the Super.fi 3's I had. Anyone else ever try these and think they were pretty good...

Are what I'm looking for in my next IEM's.   I have Kicker eb141's, Metro Fi 220's, and Super.Fi 5's. As far as sound signature goes, I'm open to almost anything that has a good sound QUALITY. The only catch: the IEM's must have detachable cables, and preferably be under $50.   I have...

Out of curiosity, since these have been out for just about enough time, I'm wondering if anyone has seen, heard or bought the Altec Lansing MuzX Ultra. They're a relatively recent release.   http://www.alteclansing.com/ae/us/headphones/muzx+reg-ultra-mzx606/invt/mzx606/   There's a few...

Don't want to use my DBA-02's for running no longer.   I'm about to pull the trigger on the M6 but would like to dissapate and doubts.   I need something would good construction, microphonics and comfortability.   Sound wise, I like something mid-centric, slightly bright/forward. I...

I am talking purely of sound nothing and I mean nothing else which sounds better?

I don't think I can call this a review, as I'm not skilled enough to give some of the feedback, hence simply putting "Impressions" in the title.  I played these un-amplified, listening to an ipod and a pc with some cheapo sound card.   I was surfing Amazon and saw that these are on sale for...

Well, this one has got quite an interesting story.   First off, If you haven't already seen my signature, then I suggest you take a peek real quick. This is so you know what other IEM's I have.   Long ago, I bought the Altec 326 IEM. I used it for a few months or so, because that was the...

it seems like according to altec lansing they are the best model, but on amazon they were only $20, the lowest out of all the altec lansing products, which confuses me, since the supposedly worse backbeat series are about $70

I like the sound but not the soft 'olive' tips.   Are there any brand of Tri-flange or Bi-flange tips that fit the large diameter stem on these?

Well I don't feel like I'm qualified to do a detailed sound review analysis, but I will post my impressions. I've had these for a couple months.   Got these for $40 I think.   I'm unsure how the AD2p bluetooth protocol works though, at what point is the digital converted to analog...

I decided to start a new thread because no one answered in my last one. What do you guys think - which one is better?

So I did some searches and the plethora of options that came up leaves me undecided. Especially since people that ask for earphones/earbuds often get recommended IEMs and stuff that doesn't really fall into the category; the only earphones recommendation is saw repeatedly are the Yuin PK3.  ...
