i dont own any of them. price? whats your personal experience? can you give me a comparison on sound reproduction? thanks

how much would a um2 cost? um1 should be $160 right? anyone can give me opinions on sound difference between the two? i only tested the um1s but not the um2.

i own an old aego 2.1 and im planning to get a USB Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit External DAC/ADC. i viewed the creative website and the 9-pin Speaker DIN is required (correct me if im wrong please) between DACtoSpeaker. does this mean i have to upgrade my aego to another set with this "9-pin Speaker DIN Cable" thing? if there is a way to convert the plugs, is there a loss in quality? are there any other solutions to this problem not involving the upgrade of my speakers? ok. about the USB interface. ive read in forums that the USB interface screws with the sound quality in a way. can anyone explain this to me? true of false. thanks a lot

oh ok. sorry about that. but im a noob in this area. could you please clarify those definitions and terms for me so i dont get them mixed up next time? yes that is what i meant--piercing high notes and general brightness. thanks for correcting me

lol thanks man. im not the total opposite. just dont like toooo much clarity. i prefer a balance leaning toward the bass side. but i dont want music to be overwhelmed by bass either. any other shop near serangoon? what do you mean by "pm them"? oh so i can just go and try them out? no need to bring my own buds?

thanks "That dude" haha. yes i was looking through that thread before i posted. im mainly wanting to know the difference between the sound quality of an IEM and a normal one for example ipod earphones/B&O etc. cos im new to IEMs and am unsure whether or not to buy these types of earphones in the first place. westone's um1 looks pretty quirky. do these types of earphones loop around the top of the ear? thanks. cheers

my B&O's sound quality lacks bass, yes. but the clarity is too high i think. so high that sometimes they are painful to listen to. where can i try them myself? thanks for your help

hi. ive been thinking of upgrading my B&O earphones (which arent good) to something that has better sound balance and quality including noise isolation. earphones in mind- UM SuperFi 3 and SuperFi 5; Westone UM1; Shure E3c from experience, which are the best sounding? and has the best value? thanks alot. by the way, can someone please describe the sound experienced when listening to music using normal ipod earphones in comparison with one of these monitors? ive heard that they are ususally used by people on stage or something. do i really need that type of quality? do you think its worth investing in?
