Techno Pride Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 the westones, being high sensitivity IEMs (UM2 more noticably)...anyone tried westones and heard hissing in their Sony DAPs?btw, upgrading from E888.

DSP Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 I have a sony nw-a1200 and sennheiser CX300.I hear some quite background noise sometimes, with a quiet song or between songs if I'm in a very silent place.I think that the Westones will have it too. because they're even more sensitive I think.But that's just my guess. I thought it would be helpfull to let you know.greetz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Techno Pride Posted October 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 (edited) hi thanks.I went ahead and bought an UM1 anyway. Didnt notice any hissing.Thou at the same bass+1 eq setting, the E888 has more kick than the UM1... EDIT:actually in a quiet environment, the hissing is evident at volume 0.added a pic linkie to a bigger pic:http://img95.imageshack.us/img95/2681/um1bigmj1.jpg Edited October 6, 2006 by Techno Pride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Techno Pride Posted December 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Lol, where did u get the cool walkman symbol.How much you get the phones for?the walkman thingy came with the player, but in a separate package.Got the phones for roughly USD $103.apart from the isolation, i think the E888 is better in all other aspects.
