grawk Posted October 20, 2007 Report Posted October 20, 2007 you have to drill a hole in the bottom there. OH! [me=grawk]grabs the dewalt. [/me]
postjack Posted October 20, 2007 Report Posted October 20, 2007 yeah, I figured just buy an er4s, and if I want to try the amp thing get a p>s cable later. this should read buy an er4p. If a mod feels like changing this so that future headcasers aren't confused by my mistake, feel free.
postjack Posted October 20, 2007 Report Posted October 20, 2007 nah. yeah, fuck them anyway. the future is NOW.
riceboy Posted October 20, 2007 Report Posted October 20, 2007 werd, the er4p would be perfect. They work so well with violins! I agree that it does sound great for violins i think you'll like the ER-4Ps, posty. X2. I did enjoy the ER-4P out of my Ipod when I had them. They sounded good for jazz and classical IMHO. Good luck Jack

jinp6301 Posted October 20, 2007 Author Report Posted October 20, 2007 youre allowed to jack POSTS as your screen name says, but threads blowjobs are 10 bucks each!
aerius Posted October 20, 2007 Report Posted October 20, 2007 I've been looking for half an hour, but can't find a place to plug in the er4ps to my daughter's violin. This is why man invented electric violins.
jinp6301 Posted October 20, 2007 Author Report Posted October 20, 2007 we should just call this thread, jinp gets owned by mods
postjack Posted October 20, 2007 Report Posted October 20, 2007 so i ordered the e4rp from headroom last night. huzzah, looks like I might get into IEMs. I owned the iM716 briefly in my early headphone career. I liked it but sold it to finance something else which I sold to finance something.
ojnihs Posted October 20, 2007 Report Posted October 20, 2007 so i ordered the e4rp from headroom last night. huzzah, looks like I might get into IEMs. You won't be disappointed. Etymotic has yet to send my my replacement pair, but I love the er4p to death. Was thinking about getting a pair of se530s, but I think I could be happy with the er4p forever. So crisp and crystal clear. IMHO, it makes everything I listen to sparkle.
postjack Posted October 22, 2007 Report Posted October 22, 2007 Does anyone know if headroom includes any sweet caramel flavored candies with IEM orders? It would be fantastic to enjoy delicious candy when my IEMs arrive.
boomana Posted October 23, 2007 Report Posted October 23, 2007 Does anyone know if headroom includes any sweet caramel flavored candies with IEM orders? It would be fantastic to enjoy delicious candy when my IEMs arrive. I'm pretty sure that's a special order, but probably best not to get it. Chewy caramel and iems don't go together well at all.
jinp6301 Posted October 23, 2007 Author Report Posted October 23, 2007 Does anyone know if headroom includes any sweet caramel flavored candies with IEM orders? It would be fantastic to enjoy delicious candy when my IEMs arrive. only if you promise to share it with the rest of the class
laxx Posted October 25, 2007 Report Posted October 25, 2007 Damn, I want to try a pair of ER4p's. I think they're the only IEM that might match my taste.
postjack Posted October 25, 2007 Report Posted October 25, 2007 Just got a box in from headroom today. I have to goto class after work, but I'm looking forward to trying these out when I get home. Got my shuffle all loaded up and ready to roll.
jinp6301 Posted October 25, 2007 Author Report Posted October 25, 2007 Damn, I want to try a pair of ER4p's. I think they're the only IEM that might match my taste. welcome back man
postjack Posted October 26, 2007 Report Posted October 26, 2007 First impressions: great balanced sound, good bass weight, excellent highs, maybe a tad congested in the midrange. However, I remember now why I sold my iM716s, because having IEMs in my ears makes me want to drink poison. My ears just itch itch ITCH, ARGH! This happens with both the triple flange and the foamies, its almost impossible for me to stand having them in more then one or two songs. I have to rip them out and shove my finger in my ear and scratch scratch scratch, oh thank the gods for this sweet scratch. Any tips on possibly prolonging my IEM listening experience?
postjack Posted October 26, 2007 Report Posted October 26, 2007 you'll get used to it, just keep wearing them. and i find it helps if your ears are very clean, and slightly dampen the triflange with some water (i just use my tongue, myself). OK, its getting a little better. I find its best when I just insert them and leave them be. If I keep pulling them out and trying to put them back in to get a "better" fit, it ends up just irritating my ear canal, which starts the itching. Of course the possibility of channel imbalance drives me fucking nuts, especially since the IEMs can feel like they are in each ear differently, even if they aren't. So I just have to tell myself to cool out and listen to the music. Just did a little Harnoncourt & Aimard Beethoven Piano Concerto. Sounded good as an MP3 ~245kb/s V0 fast. Little hollowish in the piano notes, not totally full and natural, but still an impressive sound.
jinp6301 Posted October 26, 2007 Author Report Posted October 26, 2007 try the black shure foamies, they have the sound of the regular foamies without wanting to shoot yourself because of how uncomfortable the foams are
ojnihs Posted October 26, 2007 Report Posted October 26, 2007 try the black shure foamies, they have the sound of the regular foamies without wanting to shoot yourself because of how uncomfortable the foams are i'd buy some of those if they weren't so god damned expensive
laxx Posted October 29, 2007 Report Posted October 29, 2007 Too bad I paid an arm and a leg and only have 1 pair left. =T
jinp6301 Posted October 29, 2007 Author Report Posted October 29, 2007 yea but they last forever. I'm still using the one you gave me
