A Jays 3 has it too. Not many comes with the dual jack but if you buy separately can use all earphones already.

Try the Fischer Audio Consonance and beyerdynamic DTX101iE =)

The Fischer Audio Consonance can perform well for almost all genres, slightly more warm sounding than the DTX101iE. =)

Hi, my Klipsch S4i died on me. Please help recommend me a new IEM.

- Your rig (iPhone / PC)
- What type of usage (Music / Movies)
- File format used in your source (Varies)
- Genre of music you listen to (Pop / R&B)
- Headphone / earphone type (IEM)
- Other requirements (if any)
(Mic/Remote, Strong duty cables - I'm careless and usually just coil my Klipsch and put it in my pockets. The cables finally gave way / got ripped / torn after a good 1.5 years.
Therefore, I'm looking for stronger cables, probably flat ones [Are they stronger?] i.e.: a-Jays Four? Klipsch S4i (II)? UE400vi?)
- Budget (<=S$250)

Thank you~

Flat cables are actually more susceptible to cable damage thanks to the layout...

At that price you can get much better - GR07, UE700, BA200.

My advice: get better earphones and start taking better care of them.

Read up on the BA200, seems real good. Thanks But none of those you recommended comes with a remote.

Anymore recommendations anyone please?

Do try out the UE400vi its quite a good choice since you need the mic. The main advantage of flat cables is preventing tangles but always good to keep earphones in a case.

How about Klipsch X7i?

 

[TeamStereo]

We do not have the Klipsch earphones anymore, but best to try out for yourself. =)

non in ear quite rare... I not sure lol...

In ear.... Yamaha EPH-100, use foam tips if you do not like the normal tips or find them uncomfortable

You can use the BA200 with a 'remote' cable since the BA200's end in a short short cable. Of course there's an extension cable in box as well.

Not many non in-ear ones, Marshall Minor is quite suitable for your music preference.
