I just bought these. Should have them by Monday. Inline mic and pod controls. I know they are steep but I got a thing for hi fidelity earbuds.

KIND OF? Kind of steep? Dude you could buy 2 more iphones with those.

The triple.fi are great. I have a pair from...2 years ago. Some of the best triple driver headphones short of custom on the market.

Price is worth it, if you've got the quality files to enjoy it.

very nice some people just dont understand good quality audio. Some people on this site spent 700 bucks for the iphone because they didnt wanna sign a contract. I would never spend 700 bucks on a phone, i spent 300 on my westone's and i dont regret it one bit. I have over 5k in home audio and 3k in car audio. Its what i enjoy doing so its worth it to me. We all have different hobbys and passions.

Those do look very nice. I've got the lowly 200vi's. They sound OK, but I'm sure these would sound great.

They had better sound fabulous or I am sending them back! Seriously, I do expect them to be wonderful. Can't wait to get them.
Zwole I am like you. I am definitely into quality audio. I have high end stereo at home and I do listen to my iPod quite a bit. The added voice and pod controls will be a great bonus for work as well. People buy what they like. It's cool when people express their opinions even it it opposes my own.

I really thought about these a few weeks ago, but I'm waiting for them to update the Controls to include Volume Controls

That would be fabulous. I didn't look too much at their other models. Do any of the models made for phone use have inline volume control? I have an inline controller I got with the Shure buds so it isn't really an issue.

Several highe end models come with just the inline controller but i dont like it as sometimes it bumps when walking around and stuff. I just prefer using the side buttons on the phone personally. When are they coming in browngem?

I will receive them today. I will post after I try them out. I also checked out the Westone site. Nice. The custom fit should be awesome. Not a bad price for the buds and fitting.
