What sound like B&W (home) speakers?
I am in new to headphones and am in the market for both a set of full-size headphones as well as a pair of IEM's. I really enjoy the sound of my B&W 802D's - a rich, warm sound. To me, some of the other reference speakers sound too bright or even "shrilly" to my ear - for instance, Revel and...- l8braker

RE0 Broken!
Hello, everyone. I've owned the HiFiMAN RE0's for about 4 months and it seems like the left cable near the can is somehow defected. The sound would be on and off on the left side when I adjust the cable. I was really sad because these were one of my favorite IEM's to date. I don't consider...- hsshin0130

Custom IEMs compared to Universals?
Hi, I'm thinking about upgrading from my Ultimate Ears Triple.fi 10 (I use an Apple iPod Nano --> Sendstation Pocketdock line out --> NuForce Icon --> UE TF10).

Repair strain relief boot Shure SE 530
I have a pair of Shure SE530 earphones.
