Ultimate Ears Super.fi 3.......2007-12-23
I bought these to replace Shure E5's- they compare very well- good solid ear fit- great sound
I'm a working musician and producer and very particular about my earbuds- I'm very pleased with them.
Buy these Earphones now!.......2007-12-15
I bought an iphone a few months ago and finally got rid of the Buds that come with it. I read many of the reviews here and decided to give these a try. After dropping $400 bucks on the phone I couldn't spend too much more and still claim a happy marriage. These fit the bill to a tee. I fly a lot and the sound deadening features on these buds are amazing. It's also nice being able to keep the volume down below 1/4 % and still hearing the music plenty loud. I heartily recommend these.
Great sound isolating headphones.......2007-12-09
I purchased these headphones because I wanted decent headphones that I can use on an airplane, at the gym, for while I run outside and for work.
I have had these headphones for 1 week now and used them in each environment and they work great. I am not an audiophile, so I wont comment on the quality of sound other than saying that music sounds clear and crisp.
The reason I really like these headphones because they do block out the airplane's engine noise very well. If put in properly, you can barely hear the engine noise. They are also great at keeping out other noises that you commonly hear at work.
The only downside is that you do need to wrap the cord around your ear to get the best fit. On occasion, the headphones may pop out of your ear but it isn't frequent enough to bother me.
No Bass.......2007-12-04
These earphones are great, only if you dont want bass.
With some work you can get them to fit perfectly,
Medium to High sounds have great clarity and are pretty good with sound isolation. Though I recommend either of the two below. Please notice the price difference:
Super.fi 5 EB White Earphones
Sony MDR-NX1 In Style Stereo Dynamic Earphones (White)
an acquired taste.......2007-12-01
My basic requirement for headphones or speakers is that they sound fabulous when my playback device equalization is set flat. I listen mostly to classical music, and I don't believe in juicing up my music with artificial sweeteners. I'm a purist. I want to hear recordings the way they were made. My Cowon IAudio7 player sounds superb with flat equalization through my Grado SR80 headphones, and I was hoping that the UE3 earphones would deliver similarly. Unfortunately, they didn't. The bass just wasn't there. I had to fiddle with the equalization (which the IAudio7 has in spades) to get the sound I wanted.
That said, I have come to love these little cans. I try to forget that my controls aren't precisely flatlined and just enjoy the music. Here are some of the many good points about these earphones:
1. Once I achieved the tonal equalization I wanted, I began to appreciate the clarity of the sound. These phones don't deliver conspicuous, hot sound. They are subtle and natural. They had to grow on me. Give them a week before you return them in disappointment.
2. They have a thick, stiff cord that doesn't get tangled so easily as other earphones. The cord seems pretty durable and less noisy brushing against the clothes than many others. Also, the V cord meets at the middle under the chin with a slide adjuster. I don't care for side cords. Additionally, the stiff cord doesn't flop around a lot when I'm on the treadmill. I usually run it under my shirt.
3. Inserting the earphones properly takes a little practice--the manual explains a "rock and roll" method to twist them into your ear canals. Once you select the appropriately sized pad from the enclosed selection and twist them in correctly, you will hear natural, tonally balanced sound (except for some bass deficit) and an effective soundstage. The snug fit blocks most outside sound, so you won't have to turn up the volume to dangerous levels to compete with the outside world. They sound great on the noisy city bus. I haven't tried them on a plane yet.
4. The stiff cords loop over the ears, increasing stability. I work out with these earphones all the time. They don't pop out. Occasionally, I get a pocket of sweat between my earpad and eardrum so that everything sounds a bit underwater. I don't know if there is any remedy for that, other than to stop sweating.
Here are some negatives:
1. The earpads are devilishly difficult to fit over the earphones. I was afraid I would rip them. The instructions say to twist them on gently. Gentleness didn't work for me. I had to struggle with them for quite awhile. In fact, I got to the point where I called the company to arrange sending them back. It was late at night, the phone support was off duty, so I struggled some more and finally got them on. The good news is that they're unlikely to come off in the ears, so hopefully you won't have to excavate earpads out of your ear canals with tweezers like I have had to do with my Sonys. I settled for the medium sized pads. I was afraid to remove them and try any other sizes. They fit snugly in my ears. Once you get this part worked out--suffer a little for your music--you will enjoy the results.
2. The bass. I'm not a hip hop listener, so I don't need to set off car alarms with my bass, but when I listen to an orchestra, I like to hear some chesty growl in the bass viols and cellos and a good visceral thump from the bass drum. I twiddled and eventually found my sound, but I think more low end should be the default.
Summary: A great sounding though bass shy pair of earphones that effectively block outside noise, making it possible to listen to music at comfortable, safe levels. Set up is a bother, but following that hurdle, and once you have mastered effective insertion techniques and perhaps run up the bass controls a little, you should enjoy accurate, balanced and comfortable listening through a sturdily designed and cool looking device.
Warning: Set the volume low the first time you listen through these earphones. They have plenty of natural gain and don't require a high setting. Depending on what you have listened through up till now, if you don't lower your volume setting, you may blast your eardrums the first time you use these. The manual includes this same warning. Pay attention to it.
