  1. Hi Mackie Happy belated birthday (looks like i'm late already). Have a great year ahead.
  2. have used e2c and e3c with ipod mini (unamped). preferred e3c to e2c. e2c sounds relatively "veiled". suggest skip e2c. isolation of e3c also appeared relatively better (could also be due to familiarity in insertion). also check out the um1 (brief listen at Jaben). suggest go down with your gear to Jaben which allows audition (remember they have the shure, ety and westone for audition).
  3. for the 1st 3, try Jaben (on 4th floor Adelphi). they have ety and westone for audition there. westone um1 iirc $230. e2c also available at Stereo Electronics and Anything Audio. price should be around $160 to $180 depending on promotion etc. can also check out earphonesolutions website. hope this helps.
  4. on the whole, seems like the old DT880 ... ear pads, structure and headband appear same. grill certainly looks "sportier"
  5. i think Jaben at Aldephi is planning to bring them in if i'm not mistaken. but they didn't commit on the date. iirc, the brand should be on jaben's namecard ...
  6. the million $ questions: 1) price of new DT880 2) price of new DT990 (said to be new flagship) feedback on sound would be good too ...
  7. Looking for mint condition 2020 or 3030 system. Grateful if could sms condition, age and asking price to 9298 8984. Thanks!
  8. suggest try not to surf any hi-fi websites in the meantime, or you'll be hit by the upgrade bug ... not that i follow this advice myself!!! enjoy your grado 60
  9. if i remember correctly, Albert of Anything Audio mentioned that the new DT990 is the flagship model, while the old DT880 was the flagship model.
  10. you can consider the noise isolation in-ear phones like Shure. Other brands of in-ears are Etymotics and Weston. Only have experience with the Shure e2c though. Makes trips on the bus and MRT more bearable ... Lots of threads here discussing the Shure and Etymotics
  11. if u don't mind used ones, think there may be 1 or 2 sets available on our classified pages. ps: i'm not linked to the sellers!
  12. How much was the Um1 and UM2? How much did they charge for the new plugs to try them? Sounds enticing as can audition ... Thanks.
  13. Still available if there's interest. Cheers
  14. Tried it very quickly soon after i burnt in the Beyer (120 hours +). Felt dropped in SQ (less clarity/"muddy"). Stopped using it after that.
  15. See this Grado for sale ad on Echoloft http://www.echoloft.com/cgi-bin/buysell/Ya...&num=1135675270 PS: I'm not connected to the seller.
