I bought the HD598 for 200 bucks. I had to have quick delivery because I was leaving America soon which accounts for the relatively high price.   I don't regret the buy at all because I think they sound fantastic. People say they lack bass? I think this is quite a warm headphone, and low...

I have never reviewed anything really, so I probably am unable to use most of the terminology, but here it goes!   People say "oh no not another fashion headphone" but never really gave it a chance or reviewed it - but they can be quite fun!   I'll admit they aren't worth the $200/$250...

would anyone like to buy my Fiio E7?   Sorry posted in the wrong section.

i think im going to be the most controversial person here, and say that i dont really like the FiiO E7 even though it is my first DAC and Amp. I dont really need the amp because I have Westone UM3X and Sennheiser HD 598, but I really dont like it as a DAC. I prefer the sound from my Cowon S9 and...

the E7/E9 is a dac as well, and apparently its got plenty of power for the hd800's.   how is the asgard so much better? im not very familiar with this, because the only amp i have ever used was built in to my stereo player and wasnt particularly good.

Quote:   I know that, but do you think I should play around with several cheaper headphones to be satisfied on a signature? These headphones seem to be very well recommended and are around the 100 dollar mark: Sennheiser HD555 Sennheiser HD25-1 II Audio-Technica ATH M-50 AKG...

Quote: where can this this stuff authentically and for cheap?   and also do you think that an Asus Xonar DG with Audio Technica ATHM50 would be a good (and very cheap) option?

sorry 500 excluding the computer.

Hi,   I dont have a good 'at home' listening set up right now, so that's what I am aiming for.   I might be getting a new computer this summer, and I'm unsure about going with the Fiio E7/E9 set up, or if I should buy an Asus Xonar Essence ST because I have head great things about the...

bump de bump :)

Hey, I am currently using an unamped cowon s9 and some um3x with large oval single flange klipsh tips. I ADORE my current set up, but im looking to get some decent headphones for practicallity - they will probably be used for both home use and on the go. i still havent decided if i want an...
