Where is the closed back?

Can anyone recommend a headphone under $400 that is warm, smooth and portable (easy to drive and with a small form factor. I don’t care if it folds or comes with a case). Thanks.

I really like artic cables. What do you recommend hybrid? From my understanding silver makes the tonality brighter and cooper warmer. Thanks.

Can anyone recommend a short thin (4ft-5ft) cable with 4.4mm termination for 820 that doesn’t change sound signature from original stock cable?

I really enjoyed the AWAS and found its treble adequate. It’s not an airy headphone but it felt very natural and organic to me.

Interesting. I have a soft spot for Ultrasone but haven’t heard these yet. How much you pay for yours?

How do they sound?

Anyone have comparisons between zx-300 and pha-3?

Looking for a portable/transportable DAC/AMP that is lean - fast detailed bass- and excels at producing airy detailed treble will be used for Noble Kahn and original Utopia. Will be used from my Mac desktop. Ideal price under $1000. Thanks.

How does compare to Sony Zx300 and TAZh1es? Looking for a leaner and faster sounding Sony device. Thanks.

If you want best passive isolation - AKG K872 no question. It has better than average sound stage for a closed back, good imaging, comfort and resolution and stages well.

Glad to see new Japanese headphones. I love Japanese headphones

For you I will easily recommend Denon ah-d 5200.

Austrian Audio Composer, T+A solitaire T, Meze Liric please!

I would pick Audeze. DCA has very little dynamics.
