Proven Ultimate Ears Technology M-Audio professional reference earphones incorporate acclaimed Ultimate Ears technology -- the same industry standard that has revolutionized live performance monitoring. Many of today's best-known touring artists and the sound engineers that make their concerts sound great trust Ultimate Ears for the utmost in comfort, accuracy and reliability. See who's using Ultimate Ears technology.
Monitor Anywhere M-Audio is synonymous with the mobile recording and production revolution. Now M-Audio IE professional reference earphones with Ultimate Ears technology give you high-definition monitoring on the go without lugging bulky, delicate headphones. They're perfect companions for any mobile studio -- like a Pro Tools M-Powered laptop with Transit or other M-Audio interface. They're also ideal for field recording with compact units like the popular M-Audio MicroTrack 24/96. On stage, you can say goodbye to cumbersome monitors and feedback. And you can even use them to pimp your personal MP3 player for critical listening on the go.
Precision-Balanced Armature Drivers All IE professional reference earphones employ advanced, precision-balanced armature drivers -- the same technology used in premium custom earphones -- to deliver high efficiency, extended high frequencies and superb natural bass. Armature drivers are also significantly smaller and more accurate than comparable dynamic drivers, which is part of the reason why IE professional reference monitors are so compact.
Universal Fit Kit for Superior Isolation and Comfort Superior sound isolation (26dB) minimizes outside sound to deliver a purer listening experience -- eliminating the need for a bulky pair of noise-canceling headphones. This also helps protect your ears because you don't have to crank up the volume to hear the detail in your music. All IE models include our universal fit kit to ensure optimal isolation and comfort for hours of high-quality listening pleasure. It includes an assortment of ear tips in different sizes and materials for a personalized fit for your ears.
Professional Ear Loops The hanging cables in traditional designs can catch on nearby objects and cause the earpieces to loosen or pop out altogether. All IE models feature professional-style loops that hook over and behind the ear to minimize that problem. And if your 46 in. detachable cable ever does become damaged, simply replace it instead of your earphones.

Thank you. Your vote has been counted. Could you briefly tell us why the review was or was not helpful?
"D**n!!!!!! These are so wonderful!"
Sound:
I aint even lying, I was skeptical about these, thinking that I couldn't get the balanced sound that I was looking for. I produce hip hop, and my music tends to be bass heavy. These translate to my ASP8 monitors very well. I also use Beyer Dynamics DT 770 headphones, and I would say the sound is very similar to those. More than enough low end. Not lacking at all, even the mids and highs are crystal clear.
Feature:
Accesories? None come with them other than the ear tips.
Ease of Use:
Once you figure out how to get them boys in your ear, you can ride out.
Quality:
Hmm, don't look very sturdy, but they sound awesome. I throw them in my bag and go, haven't had any problems.
Value:
They sell for one yard. Can't beat that. I'm afraid to try the IE-30 model, might blow me away even more so. I'm really impressed.
The Wow Factor:
Might make you look a lil retarded, but when you get that grammy for that track you mixed with these you won't care. You'll get all the ladies and have sex appeal when your album goes platinum. LOL!
Overall:
Get em and ball out. I think i'm going to upgrade, being that these are so awesome, I probably can match the exact sound of my studio monitors if I buy the more expensive model. I bought these boys as a tester, and i'm impressed. I'll never buy another set of headphones.
Style of Music: Hip hop, R&B rightness, funk boogie, playa music.
