Apple’s In-ear headphones now available!

I would consider myself pretty close to an audiophile. I use AAC 256 for music on my iPhone because of space limitations and the battery life is already terrible enough. However, I have an old iRiver iHP-120 that to this day trumps ANY player available. With that, I use FLAC. I have also been through many headphones. From Shure e2′s to my current Super.fi 5 Pro’s. The latest being $249. Expensive by more casual listeners perspective, but on the audiophile side they are pretty reasonable for the quality they have. The super.fi’s have a dual armature design…just like Apples new headphones. Except, Apple’s new headphones are only $79. If they sound even remotely close to the superfi’s, then these new headphones from Apple are going to be a steal! Sadly I lack the funds for anymore headphones, so, I will have to wait for other reviews to come out. If these Are indeed exponentially better than the stock Apple buds, Apple has Given us quite a bargin.
