I have a set of SE530s and Denon d5000s and a couple others but i use those two mostly, does anyone have any experience with the Fischer Eterna and Silver Bullet? I'm leaning toward the silver bullets because of the soundstage, the best soundstage ive really heard was the SA6s and id like...

I've been trying to make the switch from my Bose QC15 to quality earphones as I am growing tired of the space they take up and they are a bit uncomfortable for long flights.    I recently tried Shure / Etymotic, but in the long-run I was disappointed with the bass response. After listening...

OK so I wanted to upgrade my portable amp. After going through a ton of great reviews I've narrowed it down to either the iBasso T3 or the Little Dot MKI+   I would really appreciate some input especially if someone has tried both, does one have the edge on the other?   I would be...

Ordered an SE530 after I returned a FUBAR-right-out-of-the-box Triple.Fi 10 (retailer was out-of-stock, so cannot replace).I've been reading about the SE530 cable problem for the last three hours on Head-Fi. I see that some cables crack around the area where it loops around the upper earlobe...

In my extensive search for new IEMS, I've managed to find a pair of refurbished se530s on sale from a seller on amazon. I'm considering these because the price is nearly half of the retail price. The seller has 93% positive feedback with 2958 ratings and has a 30 day return policy. The seller's...

I have the iPhone 4 + bumper case  and I've discovered that my LOD connectors do not fit properly with the case on. The case seems to prevent full docking with any connector larger than the standard iPhone/iPod connector. Anybody else encountered this problem? Any fixes? I've also noticed...

I'm at odds over here. I'm currently in the market for some new IEM's and I dont know which ones to pick up. I know the Sennheisers seem to be the odd man out out of the three I mentioned. I'm just looking for something to use with my iPod classic 160gb. I listen to almost every kind of genre...

UPDATED 22/10/11   As many of us D7000 users will notice that the mids in this can sounds somewhat "recessed" and the bass at times can be overpowering.  I have always suspected that the bass bloat and midrange recession was one and the same - I tried to EQ the bass down or the mid up - it...

I have been away from these parts for a while.  I've happily been using the Shure SE530s with my iPhoNe.  I am thinking of  adding a pair of IEMs that would have a different sound.  The Shure website shows the SE530s are discontinued but are still for sale:   Is something new coming from Shure?

Could someone tell me roughly when Shure changed over to the better cable please...Thanks Alan

What you think will be best the best budget for laptop?   And how will it be with using of 32, 80, 250 and 600 ohm versions of fullsized headphones?

I recently grabbed a pair of these from another forum member. For a $60 earphone, I wasn't expecting anything outstanding despite ClieOS's Sonic Diamond award and high SQ ranking. I was actually pretty blown away with these things, and this isn't just $60 blown away. I've used most of the top...

I wonder where can we buy the new shure se530 with warranty at this moment. I used to buy a Se530pth for $260 but they're out of stock now. Any idea?

I currently have SE530's with custom tips and SRH840 headphones. I will only be running whatever I get out of an ipod classic(or with the addition of a portable amp). I love love love the sound of the SE530's and they are everything I'm looking for. However, they are annoying to take in and out...

Tagline: The Ortofon e-Q7 are expensive and only available from Japan. Are they worth the effort? A few weeks ago I stumbled upon this thread and was instantly hooked by the elegant and straightforward design of these IEMs. I kept waiting for a full review to appear until I realized at last...

Hi everyone,   Does anyone know where can i find only a wire for my earphones? The wire is all cracked so i want to buy new one and exchange with my old. For any help i'll be very appreciate.   Thans

Hi to all you head-fi'ers out there, My name is darron and im rather new to the world of high end ear monitors and indeed to head fi, ive been hanging around in the shadows now for a few months reading reviews and gaining invaluble imformation on ear phones, and over the last five months have...

I got a pair of triple.fi's on that stellar $99 deal a while back and I love them, but I've always had my eye on the SE530s for whatever reason. Last Friday I finally took the plunge and got myself a pair. They arrived today and I took them for a spin... I don't know if my ears just became...

This is basically an extension of the sub-$100 amp shootout as the evaluation and scoring method are essentially the same. As always, this comparison is only a subjective evaluation and nothing more than my own personal opinion.   Evaluation Method Sources: Sansa Fuze via custom LOD...

At the moment I need a new IEM that can replace my AKG 324p. I will be using my ipod with music thats all hip-hop/rap and rnb. I also rip my music in AIFF if that helps. The three headphones i'm considering at the moment are Shure SE530, Sennheiser IE 8, or the AKG K 390 NC. I'll also need great...

Mod Delete please

Greetings! I am in the market for a pair of in-ear phones and am choosing between the Shure 530's and the Klipsch Image X10's. I previously tried the Shure SE210's and was highly unimpressed. While I thought that the midrange sounded fantastic, they were sorely lacking in bass - even when I...
