    Audio-Technica M40fs 1st Impressions

    Spent your refund money already, eh. They look pretty good. Let us know what happens. I've had a couple of mid-range Senns in the past. Good sound I thought at the time, though construction quality wasn't durable. (They broke). I think Sennheiser makes good headphones, you just have to...

    Crazy4Bass - Sorry you didn't like them, I'm still happy with mine. I don't experience the same complaints that you have, for what ever reason, particularly muddy bass and cloudy vocals. I'm not that familiar with the concept of soundstage yet, so I won't comment on that. I mainly run...

    Audio Technica ATH-M40, Fostex T-40, or Sony MDR-7506?

    So I just dl'd some Hollies. I don't neccessarily like them the best, or follow them. Real Moldy Oldies if you will. They did put out some nice songs for their time though. While listening, a smile came to my face, shivers went down my spine, I thought some of the music coming from these...

    Audio Technica ATH-M40, Fostex T-40, or Sony MDR-7506?

    After thinking for a minute, I thought I would clarify something. I may have claimed that I liked the A-T's better, but I don't remember using the word "superior". Liking them better is certainly my opinion which I chose to express. It is you(Blighty) who may have inferred by this that the...

    Audio Technica ATH-M40, Fostex T-40, or Sony MDR-7506?

    Being a non-professional (and even less), I wont try to claim that the ATH-M40 is superior to the MDR-7506/V6. I will say again, that I think I like the A-T's by a couple of notches. Those are small notches though. My feeling at this time is that when I choose to listen to some music, my choice...

    Koss KSC-50 - What am I missing?

    Well, heres my input... The sound of my 35's and 50's are roughly equivalent. The 35's cause fatique though, possibly due to some harshness? Maybe they're not broken in yet. I like the fit of the 35's better, the 50's sound better when you tighten up the fit. Wish they came with a...

    Hey Gluegun --- I would say the bass is highly defined, but may not be exagerated. You'll hear it when it needs to be heard. The earcups rotate, but I am unsure about the fit in this case. The headphones are very secure as long as the headband is moved forward on the head. If the...

    Audio Technica ATH-M40, Fostex T-40, or Sony MDR-7506?

    I hope you enjoy them. I didn't seem to have to break them in too long. After an initial listening, I broke them in for four hours while I was doing other things. I then started listening to them, and the longer I played them, the more I liked them. Dave

    Audio-Technica M40fs 1st Impressions

    My first impressions on comfort are good. I have to admit that the Sony's may be SLIGHTLY more comfortable. This may be because they are somewhat smaller and probably weigh somewhat less. But, the A-T's having larger earcushions and a more encompassing fit. They probably are more secure...

    Audio Technica ATH-M40, Fostex T-40, or Sony MDR-7506?

    Void7 See my thread regarding A-T 40. http://www.head-fi.org/forums/showth...4&goto=newpost From what I've heard the V-6 and 7506 are 95-99% the same. If I could save $25, I would buy the v-6's.

    Audio-Technica M40fs 1st Impressions

    Like I said, I'm fully satisfied. About the bass, I'd say it's there and neutral. I'm sure not complaining. I would say the 7506's probably have more bass and "boominess". In other words a slight emphasis on bass. I think with the A-T 40's, the music is very clean, as is the bass. So...

    Audio-Technica M40fs 1st Impressions

    Well, a couple of hours later, and I am completely satisfied with the A-T's. I'm liking them more and more. More detail, and musical. What else do I want. Nothing I can think of right now. Oh did I mention the M40's have oodles of detail. Dave

    Audio-Technica M40fs 1st Impressions

    Well, I may say they are comparable in some ways, but.... I hope you're not going to tell me you like the Koss-35's better. (Not that they're bad) While you're talkin, you might as well tell us what you like, so we can have a frame of reference to compare to. We might even come upon...
