abhiroopb 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2010 One day I'll buy the UE11! To be honest though I don't think I would be able to hear any difference. My hearing is just not that good. And since mostly I'm listening to mp3 files on my iPod it hardly matters! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abhiroopb 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2010 There's a lot of hiss in my Westone 2. In some songs it is more pronounced All my songs are above 200kbps mp3 format. Any thoughts/suggestions? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(: do not judge based on looks. I havent heard of these cans, so i cant really give u a good opinion. However most ppl say that though the sound quality is good, it may be a little overpriced. But to me, if the quality is good enough for you and you think its worth it, buy it, afterall your friend has it, borrow it for a listen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blackingeek 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2010 Just out of curiousity..... did you audition other brands before buying the Monster. yup i did. did some research on other brands before purchasing in. in the end i went with some logic that my friend taught me. first choice is always the best choice. hahaha. maybe it was a silly instinct but so far i'm quite happy with my solo headphones.
