Bowers & Wilkins PX7 noise-cancelling over ear headphones
I have owned a px7 for several years. I bought a px8. While I think the px8 has more detail and better Instrument placement I can not get over the fact that on the PX8 to me the guitars sound anemic. I listen to a lot of Rock music so the px8 is not a good pairing. Has anyone else had this...- toadthedry

Bower and Wilkins PX8 and classic rock
I have been listening to the Bower and Wilkins px8 for a week or so quite a bit. I like the headphone in general but the problem I am running into is the following: I listen to classic rock and on the PX8 for some reason to me the guitars seem to be presented less prominently. This is in full...- toadthedry

Portable Amp for Focal Stelia
Hi What portable headphone amp works well with Focal Stelia. This headphone still sounds very hood straight out of an iPhone. Directly out of my Mac book air it sounds better than out of the iPhone. I own a chord mojo one (the original one) and did not feel it made the Stelia sound better...- toadthedry

Closed headphones suggestions
Thanks. That is a good suggestion. I should have stated that I have owned in the past the Meze 99, fostex 900s, Nad visos and some Audio-Technica headphones. None of em did the trick. The mezes are a good suggestion but I tried them a year or so ago. Thanks Mike- toadthedry

Sennheiser HD660S... Finally a successor for the HD650?
Hi I own a 650. Great headphone. I do wish it sounded better right from my iPhone but realize I need to use an amp to make it sound great. Does the 660 sound good directly from the iPhone or does it like the 650 really need to be amped? Thanks Mike- toadthedry

Meze 99 Classics Discussion + Impressions Thread
Hi Am I correct that the current version of the Meze 99 classics are sold with larger earpads than the originals? Also some of the reviews seem to indicate the sound is different with the different pads with some saying the bass with the big pads is bloated. What do most people think of the...- toadthedry

V-MODA Crossfade 2 Wireless - We Discuss It With Val Kolton - Head-Fi TV
On my crossfade 2 wireless I am noticing it is significantly louder out of the Bluetooth from my iPhone 6s Plus as compared to wired. In fact in blue tooth mode I can only listen at the lowest few settings otherwise it is too loud. There must be something wrong with the headphones or something...- toadthedry
