thats fine...
else il probaly go for the glue option if those idiots really need 7 days for just "checking" that it is loose as hell. Really smart people if they need 7 days to figure out whats wrong with them.

Do you want me to send it to you right now?(well, after school). I can send it to you instead of monster if you want to glue it.

Is the other one glued? Or is it also a bit loose?
I want to hear a reply from monster first if they reply within 24h.

OK so i sent off your order with USPS today. shipping was $6 and the packaging was $2.
I just taped it together because i would really not want to break the internals myself-i'll leave that up to you ;)
I included some random shit in the package just for the hell of it too lmao
would you please send the $30 for me to my paypal? The $30 you sent me earlier was lost in paypal fees, sales tax, and shipping costs. This got me thinking, how does your government generate its revenue in the netherlands? In the USA here, there is a federal income tax, a separate state income tax that varies by each state, and a state sales tax that varies from state-to-state as well. I hope you get your earphones soon!

Just a quick reminder that when you start getting into the higher end "inner ear" headphones, the industry starts to refer to them as IEMs (Inner ear monitors) and they start fetching usually +$300 a pair.

Just clarifying the industry of high end audio equipment.

Also, if you do have a pair of these, be sure to get yourself a DAC capable of decoding high quality (24/96Khz) or better encoded .FLAC or .APE files. That way you're getting the full appreciation of high quality headphones and overkill quality music. You'll never listen to .MP3 or .wma ever again. That's for darned sure. On an iPad you can use FLAC player
to decode 24/96 and 32/192Khz and output them to either raw digital out, via the camera connection kit to an external DAC or via sound out. Either way, the sound is excellent.

Hmm i hope it survives the shipping..Is the loose earphone part taped as well? But thanks il wait for them:d

Our goverement makes income by getting packages from other countries then in europe, and asking a shitload of taxes. Wich is 21% tax, 12,50 euro import costs and then asks another import rights.
For the rest, prices here in the netherlands always include 21% tax, beginning next month(now its 19%). Then the seller needs to give that to the tax company.

I do not play flacs. I only play 320kps mp3 files. I dont want to start looking for flacs of every song i own. I also rather not use the bulky connection kit.

Just try a song or two in flac and you'll soon come to realize how crappy mp3 is.
No offense but listening to mp3 with monster copper turbines is akin to putting a lawn owner engine in a Ferrari. That's how different the two formats are.
Just try FLAC. Youll never go back to LOFI ever again.
You don't need a camera connection kit for turbine coppers. Just the high impedance IEMs.
DAC/headamp or you could use an analog amp which uses the line out on the iPad instead of raw digital out.

The difference is also notable through line out without a dac?
Just with a flac player and the copper's?

yuppers! Use the line out of the iPad. Get FLAC player from the app store. WELL WORTH IT!
Avoid Golden Ear. It's crap.
I've got a tonne of FLAC for you to test. Let me know and I'll share some with you.
Do you have a server or someway for me to upload to you?
