Guest dragonboy Report post Posted January 3, 2008 To me, it is almost like eating food with too much chilli.... U can't really taste what you're eating. But if you like the bass from sony's EX-71 or sennheiser cx-300, you'll probably may fall in love with the 5EB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vodka 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2008 o , then the bass on the um2 isit weak or still alright? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sHaRkKaE 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2008 The bass of the UM2 is pretty decent, not weak, but definitely not comparable with the EB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dragonboy Report post Posted January 4, 2008 Yeap . Um-2 bass is just fine. But whether is it less or over depends on your personal taste. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Cruise Report post Posted January 4, 2008 I thought UM2's bass is powerful.. Having said that, I have used the UM2s for 2 years before selling because I wanted to explore other phones and also the expiring warranty.. I must say the bass is really deep and controlled, and to my liking I don't quite like the sound of Superfi5pro as it sounds artificial as compared to UM2. Another factor is the fit.. Superfi5pro sticks out from the ear and doesn't fit that well.. Wheras for UM2, it sits nicely in your ears.. So you might want to think about that.. Finally, the wire UM2 has one of the most flexible and durable wires since I have started using earphones.. I can't say much of Superfi5pro though because I don't own them enough to justify. With all said, it might seem like I'm a UM2 fanboy.. Well, I'm just quoting base on my preferences.. Give them both a try and do keep in mind your taste of sound/comfort & fitting/built/budget respectively. I think you won't go wrong with it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest dragonboy Report post Posted January 4, 2008 You could try the xenos RHP now on promo at SE for only $69. Quite a good match with UM-2 but dunno still got stocks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Cruise Report post Posted January 8, 2008 Don't expect a vase improvement from amps.. Not even the Hornet M.. I used to own them before and I don't see much improvement to keep them.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
