  1. Hi all,

     

    wondering if any of u own shure's IEM and have issues with the sound quality after 1yr of usage...

    The problem I am facing is while listening to music from the IEM there is lots of noise coming from the cables (or that what I believe). I own both the e3 and e5 and both have this same problem after 1yr, I think its because the cables are starting to oxidize or something.... Is there anyway to fix this or do I have to throw them away


  2. The OK1 are ear plugs... looks like ordinary ones but have a high impedence of 150... normal mp3 players may not be able to drive them properly... the highs are good but u wont get head pounding bass from these. They are more suited for classical or jazz

     


  3. I used the pico with my shure 5E, yuin ok1, and ed9... there bass improvements and the mids were smoother, no much difference in the highs though. Comparing with the mustang, the mustang does everything better than the pico and is smaller in size but more expensive


  4. Just to update u guys...

     

    Had a good listen to kooncm's ALO780. My first impression was WOW! The sound stage and bass were great. the isolation was good, I tested them at Stereo and could not hear the surrounding after putting them on, almost as gd as my e5c.

     

    The only bad thing about this cans and also the edition 9 (which sounded even better) is that for high pitch sounds there is sibilance. Not sure if after the burn in will it go away.

     

    Looks like I found what i am looking for, the only thing now is either I wait till July for them to come into singapore or get them online... sigh....

    I waited 1 month for the pico and return it within 30days after comparing it with the i-qube, the amp section of the i-qube is simply more impressive in all aspect but if you need the DAC, then give it a skip and don't audition the i-qube. ;)

    I have test the i-qube but still plan to get the pico bcos the iqube is too big for me.


  6. I have tried it, an in mho... think u will lose more money trying to get the stuff u want.

     

    Previously it was the lowest bid, now its the highest unique bid, but there is a cap to the amount u can bid for an item. The process fee varies from item to item, the hotter the item the more the processing fee. It can be from $2 - $10 or more. so far I have spent about $30 on processing fee and have got nothing.

     

    The site would recommend that you make a few bids for an item. This is suppose to increase the chances of you getting the item. But so far no luck for me :(
