Headphones slide into the auditory canal

The tips often fall out of the headphones and remain in the auditory canal until you pull them out with tweezers. waste of good iem imo

Pros
  • understandable also for the old ones
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Revainrating 5 out of 5

great sounding, very comfortable

These are by far the best sounding IEMs I have ever heard. I had the previous version, the IE 800, and they whistle a bit less and are definitely less tiring without sacrificing too much bass punch that the original IE 800 had. It's a pleasure to listen to music with.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Damaged

Great for studio and live performances, overkill for casual listening

Comic tip about being a pair of headphones (calling SkullCandy headphones/earbuds in-ear is like AM radio to call it high fidelity) and that it costs quite a bit Penny doesn't emphasize that these are in-ear monitors - and the cost reflects the fidelity and performance of the driver, the fact that the frequency response curve isn't overly colored by the transducer and reproduces what is accurate enough for you to possibly hear things that kids who listen to MP3s on their cell phones with cheap…

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Zero

Perfection once you have the right earbuds.

It's just amazing. A quick note: look for comfortable earplugs. I clicked her after reading many reviews on the Hi-Fi Insider, YouTube and HeadPhone forums and can say that after about two weeks of trying to squeeze her chest tight without my ears to hear were an absolute win. Everything sounds very clear. I suggest using them with a dedicated DAC/amp combo or a high definition audio player like the Fiio M15. I like to just lay in my chair in it and sip Macallan 18 while listening to a few…

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Big and bulky

All three aspects of sound in one (low, mid, high)

I received it and already hit the box which I opened to discover another box inside which feels great. To open a box that was in a box, simply slide the top off until the bottom falls out. Inside is a 3.5mm unbalanced cable, a 4.4mm balanced cable, and a 2.5mm balanced cable. Also includes instructions, shirt clip, microfiber cloth, leather carrying case that smells like real leather and 6 pairs of ear tips (silicone S/M/L and foam Comply S/M/L). These are proprietary ear tips that snap into…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Concise instructions
