Earphone compatibility help...

Hi, this is my first post and I just got my S:flo2.
Before anything else, i am very impressed with the sound quality...leagues away other players i have heard, but i cannot say the same with the battery life and interface... i really hope they hire someone who'd actually fix the bugs, which i experienced quite a lot already.

Anyway on to the topic, i own a set of ie8, westone3 and triple fi10i. i got no problems with the first two, but i noticed that the UE triple fi sounds muffled. This is not an issue of broken IEM because it works perfectly with other players. Another weird thing is that whenever i press the answer or talk button for the triple fi i the sound gets a lot better. is this a known issue? are there any solutions? thanks

I've had this thing happen to me. It was with a pair of stock earphones that came with a nokia n900, it only happened with some players but it sounded very odd and you couldn't hear the vocals until you pressed the talk button, I think its just that phone earphones are made for specific phones (in some cases) so it's best not to use earphones that came with mobile phones.

Are you still talking about the S:Flo2?

I think they're talking about those earphones with the mic buit in.

Oh I see. Who knows what signals the headphones are sending down the cable when you press that button.

yes i am talking about those phones. it's weird the sound gets better when i press the talk button. which i think should be the other way around.
