great guide! this will be very helpful indeed but i think it would be best if you dont include sonic impressions (we all know thats very subjective)


instead i would suggest only the following:
1. average price
2. physical description (open, closed, supraaural, etc)
3. if possible - a store or a link where you could find the best price in the market

I am accepting write ups from everyone about any headphone, that way we get a lot of different opinions. I am not going into too much detail about each headphone, so i dont think it is a big deal to post impressions. As for the store link, i think you'll find that the prices change so much that it just wouldnt work. Also, i would like to keep people using the For Sale Forum as much as possible. As for the physical desription and other features, Head-fi Member Commando has a wonderful site at headphonereviews.org that has all of that info, as well as more reviews that can be searched through.

Correction: Edition 9, RS-1, MS-Pro do not require an amp, so I'd just put a 2.

Under more than $500 you can add an IEM section:
Westone ES-2
Ultimate Ears UE-10 pro
Ultimate Ears UE-11 Pro
Sensaphonics 2X-S

You can add Stax SR-303, 404 in $300-500 section
Stax SR-001 probably should fall into IEMs <$300
Stax SR-003 can go into the same section as SR-001 seeing how it is identical.
All of the above can require amps, but it makes sense to add that SR-001 comes with an amplifier, and all the others are generally bundled with them also.

Also Stax Omega 2 in greater than 500.

Great idea, it would be good to put links under the cans to info/reviews here or elsewhere. People can PM you links.

Apsotrophe added. Thanks facelvega. I will adds MaloS's reccomendations later today after Class. Stevenkelby, that would be a good idea, but we would need a lot of people to write some more reviews.

Thanks. I only insist on proper spelling because if you keep this thing updated, I might have to be seeing it for a long time to come! Good luck with it, FV
