Headphones, earphones news and discussion thread
Yeah, titana from TechEnclave do that.
Received HisoundAudio Popo wooden IEM for review. First impressions are quire positive with lush sounding mids and pleasant reverberating sound. Though detailing is not that good (can sound congested in complex passages) but soundstage and openness is in good proportion. Bass becomes softer with ZO2, prefer it directly connected to Sansa Fuze+. Initial impressions, final thoughts may wary slightly. More in complete review later.

Where did you get that E17 from? You got the first batch from MP4Nation?
titana - He be better called master of mods (especially of custom amps)! I have been lurking on his work since long, he is such a audio enthu!
Yes, from the first batch. It's a long story, placed order for 3 items (M2, M3 + Nanite, M4) those reached India and then returned to sender (mp4nation), it took about 3 months for whole turnaround process. I asked to cancel resending the items and requested to provide store credit. I received store credit after deduction o f $27 as shipping charges. Was thinking of buying B2 which were on offer during Christmas sale throughout december. But the 3 parcels reached late to mp4nation, partly because they didn't check with post office because of Christmas holidays while the parcel were lying there for a whole week. Fortunately E17 went on pre order and that spurred me to place order for E17. I guess they included me in the first batch dispatch as I already had a very long wait. Then parcel got stuck in customs.
Here I got something for my money after 5 months.

Seems buying from MP4nation is actually a matter of patience, too bad, was thinking of getting a E30 or M4.

There shouldn't be any problem. Mine was an isolated case.
I might sell my E30 because it's not much different from my other earphones. But before that I'd do a review.
Congrats @SIDDHARTH.BEAM

IEM are better or headphone are better. I already invested around 7000 to 8000Rs on IEM & headphone but I thing all my money has gone to vain.

No idea about headphones. I go by general impressions on head-fi and other forums.
It's one's personal preference. Some like IEM and others prefer headphones. I like the portable aspect or IEMs.
Can you tell what all earphones and headphones you have tried and the source you used to drive these ? What kind of sound signature more appeal to you ? More bass, more treble, forward vocals or a balanced one ? Analytical or warm sounding ? That might help you in selecting the right one.

By high end headphones do u mean
AKG Q701 K702 or
Beyerdynamic 880 , 990 (600 ohms or 250 ohms)
sennheiser HD650 (300 ohms) or
sennheiser HD800 & beyerdynamic T1 ( which is above my league)
I don't want lots of bass.
I need decent bass.
I am no a bass maniac.
i prefer clarity sound stage & detail over bass & treble.
