scottiebabie 0 Report post Posted May 21, 2007 Good for you heady! Maybe my ears are more sensitive or my home setup, I can hear the shrill, cause I purposely find those songs with high notes to test the highs for this earphones. Glad you like it dude! nope your ears are just fine. i find the M3 alittle grainy and unrefined too but most people maynot notice it unless they have something more refined as a reference. but what the hell, one cant expect champagne for the price of beer. overall, its great value for the $$$.

I think first, we have individual taste in sound and then the overall setup also make a difference. For example, for me, the iem is for listening on the go, so it means pairing it with a DAPand a portable amp (if possible). So, I would not compare it to my DT880 using a CD player and a PPA for example. Maybe for fun I will do it but I won't be disappointed if it isn't as good as the home setup. Which is why I think it is important to audition audio equipment with your own ears, using music you are familiar with, before commiting to a purchase. Of course, I often break my own rule and just as often get disappointed. Silly me And that is what this set of characters are for: YMMV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottiebabie 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2007 if u can get access to a Zune, just try the M3 offa the headout. its crazy good i tell ya. Zune/M3 is now my alternate fun/casual portable rig and IMO sounds much better than the 1gen shuffle/M3 or 5g ipod/M3 pairing. btw YMMV=Your Mileage May Vary. LOL!

Or as we ancients say "one man's meat is another man's poison" hey heady it just occured to me that i might have inadvertently stepped on your toes with my initial post. let me set the record straight by declaring there was NO intention on my part to infer that u cant discern any sonic differences nor do i mean that u do not posess equipment of reference quality. i was merely agreement with the OP and offering a reason why. as is my wanton habit, i wrote faster than common sense dictates - the proverbial "sticking my foot in my mouth" . you're right of course in that we all hear differently and its neither better nor worse. pardon my poor choice of words Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is there any all black M3 available? Anyone ever compared it with EP-630 or Razer m100? Thanks! Edited May 29, 2007 by bpribadi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I was wondering in what way you disagreed with me when it seems we are in agreement. Which is why I said "exactly". Don't worry, no offense taken as none was intended. Thanks for confirming though. I appreciate your maturity.

At least mine is black and no one asked me if I wanted any other colour. Beware of the beautiful case's colour. It's shocking RED!! Wilson said so we can find it at the bottom of a dark bag.

bpribadi 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 I bought Mylar 3 and Mylar 1 XB (extra bass) to replace my broken CK7. Really satisfied with both of them Thanks to all of you for the recommendations! I compared them with creative Zen microphoto, MP3 320 kbps, various songs, from classical, pop/vocal, jazz, I would say they sound similar. Only a tad different, the Mylar 1 XB lower bass is a tad more extended, and the highs is a tad smoother. So I choose Mylar 1 XB for the sound and the looks But really, only a tad different, I think most people will find them sound very similar. FYI, The Mylar 1 XB is about SGD 10.- more expensive, and to me it looks better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
