QUOTE(ICustomFit @ Apr 28 2009, 03:25 AM) Hey guys, r u "THEM"?This is slightly off topic as well, but I noticed the ListenHear mention and I figured I'd offer to provide more details on their products and services in case anyone was curious. It's one of the best options for custom IEMs or earbud molds in the US, but unfortunately a lot of people don't know about the company. Let me know if you'd like to know anything specific. if i m addicted to my customs...i may want to get more of it!  |

QUOTE(toughnut @ May 2 2009, 10:56 AM) UM3X similar to UM2, made in US. Colorado to be more specific. @bolded : this interests me much! And no, PFE nowhere near UM3X or in fact any high end IEM. It's purely hype by few jokers in head-fi. U know who they are...  |

i wanted a UM3X...
bcoz icy or was it someone else... told me it was like the UM2 made in USA... not like W3...made in china... but when i got the new toy... well...i was shut up by the new toy! Added on May 6, 2009, 1:48 pm QUOTE(AngleR35 @ May 6 2009, 01:44 PM) LoL , but i think the sound still bit diff with ES3X , coz the driver will put diff way which not same as ES3X . i juz took a close look at the sound tube...but i think but the UM3X + UM56 , should be very very nice edi ! it seems that... each of the driver has its own isolated path into the ears... unlike W3 or UM2...the sound tube is shared rite? if i saw it correctly la... if its true...then that may play a role in shaping the ES3X sound signature...

QUOTE(Paca @ May 6 2009, 07:43 PM) i think hes 80 percent spot on.. i m wit u...i really like to hear from somthing that is very near to real stuff.. but wif a lil more bass.. bass thump makes me happy! especially the very very low thump... nicey~ the ES3X covers this area very well.. W3's bass is a bit less controlled compared to ES3X's. |

QUOTE(bahathir @ May 7 2009, 10:54 AM) Any particular songs/soundtracks which you feel the sub (deep and low) bass ? I used to llistened to DJ Tiesto's trance, "Close to You". For jazz, in Diana Krall's album, the bass (instrumemts) were superb, I love it i cant really remember...BTW, many years ago, I had a contrabass marimba percusion CD to test my speaker systems. Sad, I did not have the CD anymore to test with my PFEs + D10. but i heard this one song...with a very low thump where with normal speakers sans woofer u cant really get that... ill try to look for that song again... tiesto eh? time to find a new CD! so baha... u a bass head too? QUOTE(Paca @ May 7 2009, 11:01 AM) jus u wait hohohoh... hehe.. u understand what im saying bahathir? u getting the PFE? |

QUOTE(bahathir @ May 7 2009, 12:30 PM) No.. Paca is getting to listen to my PFEs next week owh ok... he heh heh ..Basshead... ha ha hah ha .. Nope. I like clear bass, clarity mids and sparkling treble sound. Clear bass = (very) Deep, accurate bass. Example: Moving or resonating air after drum/percussion being hit. Also I do not use any EQing to boost any section of the sound spectrum. I don't like too much mid-bass, make me dizzy/pening. Example: Sound from ICE (In car entertaiment) boom box... or modded tailpipe/muffler To me... it is just a noise poison him till he cant be cured! muahahahahha.... some ICE do sound nice... i think u r refering to those ah beng type 15" woofer sound....yes? i feel u man...thats pure destruction of music...and ur eardrums too! |

QUOTE(chingwooi @ Jun 10 2009, 12:20 AM) Yea, yet it's still pretty funny that someone will actually find dual-driver IEM better than triple-driver IEM actually...UM2 is damn good... =) even W3 sucks compared to it... but not the ES3X of coz... UM2 doesnt show any anomalies such as sibilance... the bass is tight and controlled too! |
