Hi.
I've lost the black plastic cover on one of the in-ear pieces of the headset. The additional ones that come with it are smaller and larger, but not the same size.
Is there any place to get a replacement or would I have to buy the whole headset again?
I found these: http://www.amazon.de/Ohrpassstücke-...Hörersysteme/dp/B003JBURNW/ref=cm_cr-mr-title
but i'm not sure if those fit and they are more expensive than the whole headset anyway.
Also while i'm at it, is there a non-in-ear headset that is suitable for the SGS2 that includes a microphone and pause/play button? If there is a good one then I might be interested....
Thanx in advance1
Nobody got any hints or opinnions?
I actually use Comply foam tips. I have always used them on my Westone 3 IEMS. and found they work with the stock headset and are very isolating. I ride a motorcycle most of the time and listen to music through the headset....(Missing Voodoo sound bad...)
HAve to remove the centers though as they are made for Smaller tubes.

I hate to start another thread about the Neo Hybrid from SGP but I was really excited that they supposedly fixed the issue with the button sensitivity and finally ordered one for my phone. I loved the case, even with a slight power button sensitivity issue still remaining after I was told they were re-designed. However, I found an even more major flaw (for me, anyway), as many of my audio cords simply do not fit into the 3.5mm jack with the case on. I have never ever had this issue with any case on any phone. A simple aux cord in my car just did not go down deep enough, and the same issue exists with my computer speakers. The car thing was a major no no for me, as one of my biggest uses for my phone is to stream music in the car. I have a hybrid tpu style case from boxwave (the cheap one with the kickstand), which im not crazy about, but it definitely does not have either of these issues, I think this is a major fail from SGP. I contacted them for a return/refund and I'm sure they will have no problem taking it back.
Hi,
Any one of you guys has this case and experienced problems with microphone volume level? http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/case-mate-tough-case-for-sony-xperia-z1-black-black-p40805.htm
Since I bought it ppl tell me I sound like I was asleep or smth.
After switching to loudspeaker ppl say the sound quality is ok. Calling through bluetooth headset is also ok.
I tested this case with mic noise suppression on and off without any major differences - still crappy sound coming from microphone.
The case itself was a bit overpriced but it protects the phone very well, but if any of you guys experienced something like that I might just get rid of it and get incipio... Weird - never had those issues with case-mate
thanks
I don´t have such problems, it sounds for me exactly the same with case and without case ...

yeah - saw that but I wanted something that covers back also - case-mate has all buttons covered in rubber - it's pretty neat but taking a screenshot is a little hard (succeeded 1 out of 10 attempts) and has a cutout only for charging flap. I would recommend that for phone protection but ergonomics and functionality - it's not perfect. Too expensive.
Has anyone come across such earphones, that meet ALL these criteria:
1) Plastic earphones, NOT earbuds (I hate the feeling of silicone inside my ear canal)
2) Three in-line buttons (volume +/-, answer key), that work with Nexus 5
3) Black colour
4) cheap, something under $10, just good enough to watch youtube videos
If you have, please post some links
Thank you in advance.

I've actually been having trouble finding earphones as well. Everyone always reviews high quality earbuds and I also hate sticking them in my ear and they often fall out as well (yes I've tried different size tips). I actually would really like high quality ones. I wouldn't mind paying 20-30 dollars for a pair but it seems like people only concentrate on earbuds.
If you are looking for over the ear headphones, here is the noise-cancelling one that I've been using for a # of years of trans-Pacific & transon flights in coach class / back of the house - since they don't provide Bose or Sennheiser (got a pair of them too, more bulky) - they are not studio or audiophile quality, but strike a balance for price to value and results.

Comfortable to wear for extended period of time and paid about $50 for them a while ago, surprised to find them new selling up to $90+ on Amazon, mad crazy & actually appreciated in value. NC feature runs on a single AAA (rechargeable ones don't last as long ) battery for 25 to 30+ hours of run time, but it is perfectly good to use w. power off in a quieter cabin environment (sitting in the back section behind the wings with those huge Rolls Royce or GE engines spinning).
Used or pre-owned ones in good conditions are going for around $30 or so, the foam earpads can be replaced inexpensively & there are "leather" foam pad upgrades available. They fold flat in a pouch and slip easily into my carry-on or backpack for travel - an optional, sturdy protective case is available for. It is strictly for listening & does NOT have in-line mics or controls. Adjustable headband will fit everyone and the mini 3.5mm plug fits easily into the Nexus 5 with the rugged Fintie TPU case.
Running around in town, however - I prefer, however, to use Air-Buds sold online with its flat cord & foam earpieces, see their FB page or visit online sites - when it's on sale, it will cost as little as $25/pair + shipping when buy 2 together (perfect holiday gift too.)
Check out the headphone selection on monoprice.com.
They've typically got good quality for the price, and lots with inline controls.
Koss PortaPros! They are more than $10 but meet every other criteria plus they sound amazing for what they are.

After 2 hours of searching, I finally found these:

But, I'm not sure if the in-line controls will work

I believe the correct term for the type that sits in the outer ear is earbud, and in-ear monitors (IEMs) are the ones that go into your ear canal.

I thought that as well but it seems like whenever I search for earbuds, the in-ear ones come up in searches.
That's because many people don't know the difference.

I think it is because the IEM "in canal" version is mostly what's being made right now.
The old design is inefficient comparatively and can't not achieve the sound volume or quality levels as easily. Bass is also mostly nonexistent without the seal in your ears that the in canal design provides.
I think it would be more dangerous to ride a bicycle with in-ear earphones
Noise isolation is definitely a concern in some situations. Best options are using rubber/silicone tips rather than foam, not inserting therm too deeply, and/or only using one.
Otherwise, go foam and put them deep!

I occasionally have my monster ntune headphones on they don't have have a volume button it but it does have the button to answer calls with built in Mic and that cord is removable so you could get one with the volume rocker and those headphones are just pure beautiful I have the white ones but they come in all different colors

A little off topic but amazon is selling the vmoda crossfade lp for 69.99 http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003B...rue&ref_=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl&tag=m0494a-20

I'm looking for BT earbud recommendations. Either on the neck or a single in-ear solution.
Long story short: My G6 is having problems with the proximity sensor, so talking on the phone by holding the phone to my ear is difficult because the phone does not recognize when I pull the phone away from my ear. I feel that using BT for all calls would be the best solution.
With Black Friday right around the corner, it looks like there will be several choices under $40.
One model I am considering is the "SoundPEATS Q900" on Amazon, just because of the price.
I am open to suggestions and feedback.
Thank you
