  1. Hi all, juz want to share my impression on shure se425. I own Ue TF10 and Ue superfi 5vi, I am a big fan of UE as I love the sound signature. But after sometime I decided to try out shure. So I got se425 which is within my budget. After a week of intensive usage, I came to some conclusion on se425.

     

    Initially when I used se425, I felt that the sound was muddy( not very muddy, but not as clear I expected), so I decided to burn in. After abt 40hours of burnt in, it's much much clearer and brighter. Bit strange for an armature driver requires burn in. After the burn in, it sounds very good man. Compared to tf10, the sound produced is less 'colored', it's flat. It is diff from tf10 which emphasize on the fast and sharp treble. I enjoy listening to tf10 and love the se425's sound. So, conclusion, I am impressed with shure se425. I will recommend to those who is looking for 'true' sound experience. For the bassy, sorry man, this is not for u.


  2. what do you mean when "it sounds really bad?" im using an ipod classic (5.5?6th Gen? - 80gb) with LOD -> Fiio e5 and it sounds pretty good to me. listened to my friend's creative zen x-fi and i honestly couldnt tell a significant difference. i even find that my classic sounds better. (Flat EQ)

     

    Have not listened to the popular cowon or sony mp3 players so i cant comment on them.

     

    PS: im also using tf10.

     

    Does e5 really help? Becoz i cant hear much bass when i am listening to Iron maiden (their bass supposed to be very heavy) with my ipod+tf10. And it clarity isnt very good. I draw to the conclusion that the player is not good becoz i own a pair of MF220 too. The clarity and bass that is produced by MF220 and TF10 isnt a great diff. therefore i felt that the problem lays with the player. Btw, i using comply foam for both phones, i know i did have a good seal.

     

    Do you have any EQ setting when u use ur ipod?

     

    Sansa Fuze. A good player at a very good price. If EQ is what you need, you can rockbox it ( since rockbox is avaliable in V2) . Rockboxed Sansa looks good and better EQ setting.

     

    If Space is what you need, get yourself a micro SD card to add it to the space that your sansa have.

     

     

    i should check it out :grin: thx


  3. Hi all, i current having ipod 5th gen. But it sounds really bad when i go with my TF10. therefore i am looking for a new mp3 player. Any suggestion? i do not need fanciful features, i juz need a decent player most importantly is the sound produced and with at least 32gb of memory. Cowon S9 is too fanciful for me. Sony X series is too expensive for me..


  4. ^^I had quite a different experience from yours :D

     

    1) Complys gave punchier bass, but treble was a bit uncomfortable for me. Olives helped controlled the treble, so i stick to Olives. Plus Olives last much longer. Never tried the silicon tips though.

     

    3) ES2 cables improved the clarity and added a little bit of extension to the overall sound. Stock cable lasted me for 8 months.

     

    :D

     

     

    but the olives is smaller right? so need to cut off the core to fit in tf10 right?

     

    sounds like ES2 cable really better man. this weekend go down to Stereo to fix it :DD

     

     


  5. Hi all, i juz got UE TF10, so i am a noob to it. after listening it for 5 days i have some doubts with it. if anyone has the same experiences, do u mind sharing?

     

    1) Currently i m using the comply foam that is provided, the sound is warmer, bass a little deeper, but the highs/ treble sound less sharper. When i used the silicon tips, the treble is crystal clear, but i hear very little bass! Can anyone suggest what tip should i use? Is Shure olives really better? btw, i got a good seal using TF10. UE eartphones are juz nice for my ears :grin:

     

    2) I dont have a amp or a good player, i m using my laptop and ipod as the source. When i listen to heavy metal songs with my TF10, the highs sounded "broke", its not as smooth as my MF220 (which is much lower end). Why does this happened? Is it due to my player? The songs i ripped at 320k, should be clear enough right? how do i know is the cd badly mastered?

     

    3) ES2 cable really sound better? is there really a different?

     

    cheers
