Have you ever wondered what type of headphones I use while editing photos / video or when I am reading or traveling? I use what's called a Custom In Ear Monitor and have been for the last three or so years.
Recently I reached out to 64 Audio to see if I could try out a pair of there in ears. They decided to set me up with a pair of A12's for review and being that they are custom only to my ears, I get to keep them.
What makes a custom in ear monitor so much better then a pair or Beats by Dre or any other over the ear headphone is the fact that it's custom molded to your ear. Beyond that it sounds a million times better.
I use my A12s when flying but more importantly when I am editing photos or editing video. For video it's great because you can hear the audio as it's supposed to be heard.
Another place I use my A12s is at the coffee shop when i'm reading. For whatever reason, wearing a pair of these and listening to music while reading has allowed me to finally enjoy reading books. I get lost in the book as no outside noise distracts me while my music is playing.
Yes $2,000 is expensive for a paid of headphones but if you're looking for a pair of custom in ear monitors for yourself they start at $499. You can even get a universal fit pair for $399 which will blow any Beats out of the water.
I wonder if they will upgrade the tech in these and come out with a bluetooth version. Personally i'm waiting for the all digital headphone jack to replace the 3.5mm.

Love how haters that can't afford these are downvoting the video. I wouldn't get these because I can't justify the purchase but it is nice to see that it solves a problem for you. I have weirdly shaped ears so hardly any in-ear headphone work for me so I can appreciate this. Things that solve problems are priceless, in my opinion.
Do you think its smart to promote $2k headphones if the the people that follow you bitch about your videos prices as it is? Most of the these are trying to get started business wise. Im not feeling it so that makes me a hater? %90 of these guys are common folks. Most of us are not living in a loft or drives a porsche (joke)or can buy buildings with cash. (true) Why not get $999 from some folks on here for workshop. Thumbs up for that. Hey Fro stop deleting comments when people have a difference of opinion. THANKS! Mayor of Fishtown.
+Jay K Well im only e3 in the military and just ordered these.... Soooooo you're just maybe bad with money
@@mosesotb6866 Do you pay for housing or healthcare? What about food stipend - do you get one?
WOW these rock dude, in October there is headroom show coming up I'm getting my customised as well.
that price is nuts. but i guess if you have them in your ears for hours a day then like any tool its worth it.
they're for musicians too
Hey Jared! I will be getting the A6 model. Do you think they'll be good for controlling the soundboard at concerts or shows?
when are you going to review your porshe?
What headphones do you use?
Ones that I can afford :/
1$ headphones :'(
HD700 and Shure SE315. And you can remold CIEMs.
Sennheiser HD600, Fostex T50rp, Fostex TH-X00 (PH)
Xiaomi Piston 3 😂
Hi can I use it for listening metal with my huawei p20 pro cell phone?
Can it cancel the exterior noise?
64 Audio now makes CIEM for about $399 now.
Mike Parzyck yes with 3 drivers
Hi Jared loving the videos man! Wondering if you have any adoramapix metal print promos yet? (Because in videos before had promo codes and want to get one soon)
When 64 Audio came out with the second eardrum technology, I was immediately hooked with the product. I currently own a set of MEE Audio M6 Pro IEM's and I can confirm what Jared says, after a couple hours your ears get tired and get strained because of the pressure in your ear canal since there is no moving air, it's sealed. 64 Audio have changed the playing field and the cost will be well worth it.
Say no more, Jared, say no more. I've never used them, but from having seen so many (worship) guitarists who are obsessed with tone use these IEMs, I know that they're incredible. Lucky you!
Compare vs. SE846?
awesome, I do mixing all the time and always care about audio while I'm filming. this would be a great addition. maybe not the $2K versions but definitely custom molds :-)
You got me at the "beats are garbage" bit. thumbs-up!
I'm so glad someone else agrees
Great video as always. What do you mean by the 'pressure' in your ears? Is it like a physical pressure (feeling like something is pushing your ear) or do your ears just get tired from the sound? I have a pair of shure se425 currently and was thinking about custom iems, but I can't decide between UE and 64.
Pretty much the build up of pressure leads to ear fatigue for me. That doesn't happen with the 64's.
drop them a line I am sure they will help you figure it out.
+Jared Polin I will. Also thanks for showing me Noah And The Whale. I listened to one song and immediately fell in love with their music. 😀
Search for Stephen Ambrose's work and ADEL technology.
Have you tried the Empire Ears Legend X IEM's they I believe are $2500.
Yeah, for 2000 bucks they really have to be worth it :)
I'm not really an audiphile either. I like to buy good headphones for a price around 100 bucks and I did go the extra mile and got a Sound Blaster from Creative when I built my PC instead of using the onboard soundcard. That's about what I like to invest into my audio stuff. Usually the difference in audio quality isn't worth spending thousands of Euro monnies in my opinion.
I just like to spend a little more because that stuff lasts longer. I used my previous Sony headphones for 7 years and they actually still work! I have them in the closet. The problem is just that the pads ripped and replacements are expensive because these headphones went out of production.
Also, better equipment is better for your ears.
I have always wanted a pair of in ears for the shows I do. I have pro musician and sound-person friends who swear by them. Not only do they put the sound (bam) in your head but they can also protect your hearing. Standing on a stage with giant amps everywhere hitting your ears can be dangerous to your hearing. With 'in ears' it doesn't have to be as loud. If you're editing sound they'd be good, but don't forget to run your mix on other speakers. People are going to be listening on all sorts of different speaker set ups. If you mix just for head phones it won't sound the same on tiny lap top speakers, or whatever the persons listening to it on.
Sorry Jared, I was thinking during all the video " okay, at least he gets free headphones, not gonna blame him" but I totally lost it at the end when you said they were good for photo editing. lmao good joke. cheers
Why would they not be? That's not a joke. I don't want to have apple ear buds in my ears or something that doesn't one feel good, sound good or keep the outside noise out.
I spend good money on good glass, im going to spend good money on good audio.
+Jared Polin and good money on your Porsche
I think there was a joke in there: pictures don't have sound xD
+Tantum well maybe he wanted to say that they're good for listening to music while editing photos 😜
+Nathansk probably but i just thought of that as he said editingphotos haha xD
remember to breathe
what are the befits of this over regular ear phones like the apple air pods. majority of consumers output their media via cheap ear phones, monitor speakers, or headphones(usually even worse than Beats), so why would I need to hear the different levels when editing video? sorry if that comes off rather brash but I really wasn't sure how else to structure it.
Why would you need to hear anything different? You either want great sound or you don't.
Or lets put it this way. The majority of the people in the world who take pictures only use there cell phone, so why shouldn't I use a cell phone to shoot shitty photos also?
+Jared Polin I don't think that your cell phone analogy is that good. It would be more like editing your photos on a awful monitor where they will turn out with messed up colours. But I still think that having good headphones or speakers is important for editing audio since it allows you to get the picture of how the mix sounds. Personally I would not pay much more than 600$ on headphones because of diminishing returns of audio quality.
***** ok that makes more sense. Thank you!
Fro get your self a Astell & Kern audio player or a portable dac/amp for your iPhone
im going to look into that!!!
+Jared Polin but please the AK380
Amazing headphones, but I think I would put the money towards a nice lens for my Canon 7d mark 2.
All you need now is a DAC/AMP something like the Oppo HA-2. That improve your the sound out of your phone and computer
Yep they are the best, they are realy famous under drumers :)
what are the odds that 64 Audio will give me a pair to "review" on my dj/music production youtube channel?
ok so i looked at your channel but here is some productive criticism! you really need to turn down the volume xD
I would like to test them but unfortunately that's impossible.
ikr
they have universal models that fit everyones ears, you can demo them at nearest headphone exhibition like canjam that are hosted yearly in many places in usa, london, shanghai, and singapore
or if live inthe merica you can ask them to send demo pair,, they will place credit charge on credit card, and cancell it when they get them back , you pay postage only
That dislike to like ratio right now is nuts O,o
It's one of those things.
Because Jared is not an audiophile or any type of expert on this subject. But because he's an "internet influencer" he gets stuff like this for free as long as he mentions the product to his followers. Nothing wrong with it, but audiophile peeps are not happy when non experts review things like this. Probably the same way Jared feels when Ken Rockwell reviews a camera he knows nothing about.
fantomfoto How do you know he's not also an audiophile? It's not like that really takes any talent....
Well, first of all he mentions that he's not an audiophile in the very video posted above and secondly it DOES take talent to be able to hear the difference between cheap or expensive audio gear. I'm not knocking Jared at all. If I had the following he had and was offered a deal like this I'd jump all over it too.
FRO! Do you have any experience with automotive rolling photography? If so, a video is much needed! No other tutorial exists!
What are you after? Rolling shots from a moving vehicle of another moving vehicle or you sitting static and shooting moving vehicle?
Rolling shots from a moving vehicle of another moving vehicle
Matt Singer I have this www.filmtools.com/filmtools-3025-plus-triangulation-kit.html. You can also DIY it if you want or get a cheaper one elsewhere. Make sure the camera car is something with soft suspension. Only thing you have to worry about is focus and exposure length. Might need some ND filters on a bright day. Focus you can sort of set ahead of time since you will know how far the other car will be but exposure will vary depending on light, speed etc. You don't have to be going any faster than 25mph to get get some really nice motion blur and it's a lot easier at slower speeds. On a bright day, I would set to ISO100, f/8 or more and shutter to whatever the light allows. You'll have to play with that and do some test shots to see what works. Shutter speed you can also test ahead of time. Hope that helps.
Thank you very much. Much appreciated!
Seinhieser reference is the way to go. 2500 bucks.
they dosent have Apex you have the Adel version
make them wireless with a gigantic battery and i'll buy them in a second
IEM's are not really headphones that's not the main intended purpose
Would have bought them today but the code does not work now. Oh well, not paying full price.
Yikes this was tiring to watch. Also, this was not a review, just your experience with them. These are high-end custom IEMs, and should be reviewed as such.
Review was fine. But the part of you "showing" how they go & look on your ears is as bad as it gets. All I see is the hair. 'Sup with that?? That's like the only thing we can actually see that can help one decide if they look good or not. As you said, we will have to take your word for how they sound, ok cool. But at least let us see how they look. Hair, all we got to see was hair.
Your reviews and videos are great, learned a lot, appreciate it all. But if your going to do all this quality as you have done, then it must be recognized, this video does not fall under that.
What a cool hipster
Will they do my laundry as well or something like that for that price?
lol
you can wrap then round your phone so if it happens to drop, it'll dangle instead of hitting the ground
when critique again -_- ??????????
Don't tag your videos with the product you're not reviewing
that tutorial on how to use them sucked so much xD
I just don't know. Tiny little wire connections are bound to break over time.
IEM's are meant for musicians and their crews who are touring and beat them to hell. I don't have any fancy 200-500 dollar set but I do have a $50 set of M6 Pro IEM's and they are well built. If you are concerned with the wire connectors popping out, they don't move and the only time when you need to pop the monitors off the wires is if you need to replace them.
Just from a economics perspective, your vids average 15k to 40k views, how is this economically advantageous for this company to give you $2000 headphones for free? What's their ROI?
I just liked the video because he disliked Beats :D Because i hate Beats
Lemo_Manda i hate beats too. Beats by daddy
Sennheiser HD-800s
you lost me on that....sad...
smh
why the fuck did you buy $2000 headphones just for editing videos and listening for music on an iphone xD
He didn't. Clearly you didn't watch the video.
+Nevets clearly i fucking ignored that part
man, those are fugly
Sellout
Why should we pay $2,000. for head phone, you should be a shame to even advertise this product you got it free so how can you be fare.
I will spend max 40 bucks on ear phones like that. The prices you are quoting are beyond ridiculous. I just watched an info commercial. Less of these commercials please. By the way nothing can block a crying baby next to you on an airplane. That is another ridiculous statement that is false.
Not s fan of his hair. Ew lol.
