  1. Looking to sell my underutilized Zune 80 for $250. Includes full original packaging with unused earphones and invisible shield (applied). Will provide 7 days personal warranty (not applicable for user damage). To deal at amk over weekends or sat at dhoby ghaut, thx.
  2. Brand new from one to one exchange, bought in Sept with receipt & local shop warranty. Earphones sealed and unused. Reason for selling - Capacity doesn't suit my usage. Looking for 200 neg.
  3. Nice to hear of some regional innovation as well. Did you mod the 4G or 5/5.5G Ipod?
  4. price drop, also open to possible trades for other iems/phones
  5. Bought this pair of earphones direct from Vmoda and was shipped on 26/12/06. Warranty of one year from Vmoda applies. Looking to sell for $100 edit: price drop
  6. Shure e3c, presumably out of warranty but well maintained, comes with cleaning tool and hardcase. Wires/buds condition are all in good condition, no signs of fraying or anything like that. Excellent isolation is all I can comment on these iems. Asking for $120.
  7. This is possibly the most sensible, unbiased post in this whole thread. If I were to read the review and come to realise that they weren't in fact um56s, I would have the impression that they are fakes too, and I believe that this was the situation under which SE made the post warning about imitations. If anything we should ask why was this fact of third party moulds "made for the um2s" is not clearly communicated in the first place. The issue is not in selling third party products (or mass order whatever you call it or whoever is conducting it, dealer or not) but in the intentional or unintentional misrepresentations that result in selling these products. From a third person neutrall party perspective, SE did a service to us consumers in clearing up the wrong assumptions of the reviewer. That is all to the matter. If anything constructive can come out of this, it would be a comparison of the different type of earmoulds, which is what I had been expecting reading so far into this thread. We are, afterall looking for the best bang for the buck. And if some of you flamers here haven't realised it yet, your actions here aren't exactly helping Jaben's image, good intentions notwithstanding.
  8. With the internet now, there's no retail product which you can't buy. As finances permit of course.. PriceJapan
  9. What's the cost of the amp? Where did you go to audition it? Vaguely remembered seeing it in a shop at Adelphi before
  10. Try to auditon the Beyer dt770s and some alessandros and let me know what you think about them.
  11. The Corda Aria is a pretty highly regarded usb dac/amp (non-portable). Can read more about it on Headfi.
  12. Nearing 2 years old and I can't remember the exact date of purchase anyway. In good condition and with Shures' thick wires and sturdy build I'm sure it can stilll last for quite a while. Only comes with the current medium sized soft flex tips which are used, the carrying case as well as cleaning tool. Thinking of selling for $150 as I'm considering going back to a sony e888 as an IEM can get inconvenient at times.
  13. Yup, I don't think I can ever find another player quite like my H140. Hence I'm currently in the process of souping up my player big time since I'm planning to keep it for years to come.
  14. Source > Amp > Headphone = Iaudio/Ipod > Pa2v2 > Headphone Not sure where the transport go in that chain above but your source is still the same whether you connect it to the amp or not. Amp only amplifies whatever your source outputs. Can consider adding a dac if you wish to stick to the ipod and/or a quality non portable amp to match your choice headphones.
  15. Iriver cos my H140 just turned into a R160. 60gb worth of rockboxed gapless
  16. Is your existing equipment able to get the most out of the gs1k? If not, are you willing to upgrade the other bits and pieces too?
  17. http://www.misticriver.net/showthread.php?t=9308 hdd replacement for h3XX series: that forum should have all you need regarding iriver, and it's also possible to upgrade the hdd to 60gb now and even 80gb in the future
  18. might be interested in the darkvoice pending the cost of shipping. the 337 is pretty heavy from what I heard.
  19. Personally I find the quality between 128 and 192 and up bitrates to be very obvious even without using any fancy equipment. Hence I'm wondering if there's a lot of difference between between mp3s and the loseless formats like FLAC using higher ended headphones. Does anyone here use phones like senn 650/ms2i/beyer 880/akg k701 to listen to mp3s assuming that they are well encoded?

    DAC

    btw, can the Dared MP5 be bought anywhere in Singapore? See Discussion at Headfi
  21. Please pm with any offers thx
  22. Does the USB DAC bypass the need for the maudio transit?
