Ultrasone HFI-2200 ULE :he90:
Best headphone I've ever had in my long long career as a hi-fi fanatic
Involving headphone that makes it interesting to listen to genres of music that I would not have tried previously :rs1smile:
Remember to look after your hearing
Long listening sessions low volume, while studying etc
Short listening sessions higher volume for excitement !

Gone - AKG - K 222 IR - the pleather disintegrated in our hot and humid climate - gave them to my sister-in-law who had the patience to pick of all the old pleather and make her own covers for them
Ive been looking over the IEM headphones and it seems like most good ones are out of my price range. I dont have an amp that I use for regular listening so these are mainly going to be used at school, gym, and at home. I want to get the most quality for my money. I can go up a few more dollars but i am trying to keep the price low. Also I am looking for a pair they would sell at local electronic stores like best buy or circuit city.
Thanks for the help,
Willie
V-MODA Vibe sounds great with almost all kind of musics.
A direct competitor to the Sennhesiser HD600. Has nice, mostly even, midrange. Not possessing overly extended bass nor strident high end. Mostly neutral. Good dynamics and transients. Possesses very wide soundstage (some may say the soundstage is too wide). Great vocal reproduction. Has great dynamic headroom, hard to drive to distortion. Can be sibilant with sibilant recordings. Prefers neutral to warm sources and amps. Can be driven from CD player headphone jacks, but prefers a dedicated amp. Very easy to listen to for hours; non-fatiguing. Sounds uncompressed (dynamics), therefore one must be careful to not set the volume level too high as massive pressures can easily be acheived. Very clean sounding. Good positioning and detail. A very smooth sounding headphone, with very little smearing. Slight forward presentation. Excellent for just about all gendres of music.
Semi-closed design. Short 4' cord, although it comes with an extention cord. Comfortable; light; not too much lateral pressure. Comfortable headband. High impedance. Likes lots of clean power.
I have the same thoughts also :allteeth: great headphones
I'm listening to Les Violons du Roy and Bernard Labadie perform Vivaldi's Concerto for 2 violins in A minor from a Dorian CD ripped onto a Mac quad G5 (using the Apple Lossless codec) through a Mackie Onyx 400F to my new AKG K701's. So far they've got about 150 hours of burn-in on 'em and what is blowing my mine (besides the fabulous performance and sonics of this CD) is that, with more burn-in, these are supposed to get better!!! I have really enjoyed my Grado 325's (not the i's) and my Etymotic ER4's and Shure E4's, but these AKG's just have another gear and go places they can't. OK, enough. Bernard and the gang are going into the finale.
Wow...
