shahboy 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Would this be a nice combo? Prefer a lite combo with good sound for the train ride & jogging session. Any advice or better solution? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Singapura 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 This guy http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/portable-media/...dson-176373.php seems happy with the combo. I would always audition first though because it's a very subjective experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stereo_Electronics 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Seriously speaking, I don't think you can jog with any superfi IEM without constantly putting your fingers on them. And I really don't see why you would need to jog with a portable amp, unless you don't mind the extra load. For jogging ( not talking about sound here ), I would only suggest the Westones.

xjazzdummy 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2007 HEALTH CHECK (1) If you using an amp for jogging, I suppose you're going to turn the music up? That's a very bad idea. When you're exercising, blood is drawn away from your ears and to your limbs instead. Music on your earphones will sound softer because of this. And people will tend to turn up the music to compensate. And the end result is that your ears will get damaged. (2) I never liked the idea of listening to music on bluetooth device or wired headset to mobile phones. We all know that any wire connected to a radio device becomes an antenna. Just imagine connecting two antennas for a high powered radio device (i.e. mobile phone. The signal can penetrate walls!) to two sides of your brain. I've tested this myself a few times with headset connect to my phone. I get a headache in 5 mins of listening to music on it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shahboy 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2007 Can’t be more thankful guys! Advices + health check, WoW! Does make sense… the amplifier should be more for commute. For jogging, just the W810I with earphone. Ordered the amplifier today and hope EarphoneSolution still have that worldwide shipping free…. Shall review it again once I got my combo done. Now having doubts on the Super.fi. I’ve been eyeing on that cherry red gadget for too long! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shahboy 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2007 Got the Boostaroo and it sure amplify the sound more than four times. However, the enhancement of sound is not to my flavour. Plus, the hissing sound from W810i was amplified which I never realised before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sHaRkKaE 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2007 Actually I would recommend getting something with excellent isolation for jogging for the following reasons 1. You can't hear anything around you, which could be a safety hazard 2. With your feet hitting the ground harder than usual(Unless you can run like a ninja), and other body movements would be only thing you would hear through your earphones( for an example, try eating with your IEMs on) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
