HD580 is supposed to arrive tomorrow, looking forward to it.

I have initiated The Circle Project.

Have a look - this is most relevant to everyone in this club.

Super.Fi's are out. I'm still looking toward the SE210's.
Bite the bullet; save a bit more and go for the 310's. I've found that the order of quality improvement jumps quite dramatically from the two entry level shure IEM's and once passing on to the mid level 310's and the upper crust 420's and 530's ...

This review claims the SE310's are significantly better than the E4C's, and having owned a pair of E4C's and loved them ... I can only think that the SE310's would be a great value if that claim holds true: http://www.trustedreviews.com/mp3/re...g-Earphones/p1

Good luck with your search.

Some random shots over the past few days:



^ No, I do not smoke anywhere near my headphones. They all smell a little minty, if you must know ^



^ my roommate and best friend, Dan, along with his girlfriend Annika (she normally doesn't look somewhat insane ) ^







Three is too many, sorry to say, but they all sound great.

Yeah, between the hair, eyes, and massive headphones she looks the part I guess .

Jacob - were you able to remedy the fit with the cups?

Haven't had a chance to mess with them, but it likely won't be a real simple fix.

I looked at my roommates SR60 and saw that the gap between the top of the fork and the cup is ridiculously small. The room for error in measurement is so much more demanding than what I thought. Sanding the outside of the cups would be the simplest of fixes just based off what you have to work with. If there's anything more I can do, message me.

Thanks Tyler .

Numerous people have listened to the rig in the dorm, and they all seem to find a different way to say "holy crap, this is good".

Annika had the best impression - with the JVC she said that it felt like she was experiencing Coldplay live in concert.

That's pretty much the ultimate goal, eh?
