Talk:In-ear monitor

message: I think this article BADLY lacks a picture of an in-ear monitor instead of adding more pictures of Stage equipment.
Agreed.  I will try to find at least one picture to upload.--Phil McGowan (user:PhilyG) 05:55, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Since my native language isn't English I didn't want to change this by my self, but isn't "in-ear monitors" the commonly used way to write it?--Bjornwireen 16:02, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Since the introduction and enormous popularity of portable mp3-players, more and more music enthusiasts are using in ear monitors instead of the stock ear buds. I maintain a website with lots of information about IEMs. Maybe you can place an external link to my website. Here's the address Hifi-inear

thread_title:  External link 

message: I deleted an external link to a flash-based microphone monitor. The application allows somebody wearing headphones (or in-ear monitors) to listen to their own voice via whatever microphone might be hooked up to their computer. In-ear monitors are for a completely different purpose such as a musical artist listening to their performance as they sing or play; trying to replicate a professional sound system experience with a computer's microphone, the computer's inherent latency and whatever consumer quality headphones and headphone amplifier that are present is absurd. All it looked like to me was an attempt to get more eyeballs on the questionable flash application. Binksternet (talk) 06:59, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

message: Why is there no mention of acoustic coil tubes? These, as far as I know, are often used on live TV for producer feedback to talent. Telex example Zootboy (talk) 19:54, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I feel like Acoustic Coil Tubes are covered under the last sentence of the Earpieces section because they are a type of non-custom IEM. - Drcarasco (talk) 08:40, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

message: I just noticed horrid formatting in the section, fixed it (a badly placed space at the beginning of the sentence resulting in monospaced type), but the sentence doesn't make any sense. I'm not an expert in the area, so I don't want to do substantive edits. --Jds2001 (talk) 04:02, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  IEM frequency used for bootleg recording 

message: There's a section in the studio monitor article about the differences (and similarities) between monitors and commercial hi-fi speakers. I would think there should be at least a single sentence discussing the differences (if any) between IEMs and commercial earbuds or in-ear headphones. Is there a difference? If so what?
Are IEMs used by professional musicians the same as in-ear headphones you can buy in radio shack (other than the higher end drivers?) The studio monitor article notes the biggest differences between monitors and hifi speakers are generally flat response from monitors vs. sound enhancement from speakers, and "robustness" in that monitors typically can handle loud/dynamic sounds better for uncompressed sound and loud pops that might occur in studio. Is there a similar difference in IEMs/headphones?
