Criterias: Comfortable for hours of use Good isolation for a loud commute Durable for long term, ideally with a detachable cable Good for electronic music Price around $200 Not around the ear (not a high priority) I have the IE80s but they eventually broke.

Sennheiser HD 700 Impressions Thread
Any recommendations for a $100ish amp for the HD 700 from a computer? I'll be mainly listening to electronic music. I saw a lot of WA3 recommendations but that is out of my budget for an amp.- Zaarin

Looking for Headphones for the office with minimal bleeding (EDM)
I'm looking for a pair of closed headphones for the office for 5+ hrs of straight use. I do not plan on transporting them anywhere. I do not want my colleagues around me to be able to hear my music while it's in use. I mainly listen to EDM(Trance, House, Techno) without an amp straight into the...- Zaarin

Buying portable or in-ear headphones? Seeking guidance? DON'T START A NEW THREAD. Ask for advice HERE!
Quote: No no it's fine. I appreciate your recommendation. Any reason I should consider the TMA-1 or the AH-D1100's over the other 2? I like how the ATH-M50's sound but I'm a bit curious about the HD25-1.- Zaarin

Quote: I probably should of mentioned IEM only. No headphones. I posted in the full ear subforum something similar but for my workplace. I was really considering the ATH-M50's or the HD25-1's. I'll have to look into the TMA-1's and AH-D1100s though. Thanks.- Zaarin

$200 budget Purely used for the commute (loud trains and such) Only used 3-4 hours a day Choice of Music: Electronic (Trance/House/Techno) I'd like something with a strong bass but I'd like the rest to be good too. I have some Atrio MG7's and I don't like the mid/highs IEM only please. No...- Zaarin

Best headphones for 250 and below
I wonder if $250 is his absolute budget though. D2000's would be barely out of reach (unless he checks the FS subforum). Would there be a different option?- Zaarin

I've been STRONGLY considering the HD25-1's because of it's popularity of DJs. I'm looking for something to use at the office for EDM(House/Trance/Tech).

Brainwavz M2 - The "Fun" IEM
I love my M2's. They were actually my "first" real IEMs. I really hate the stiff cable. It flares out and it gets quite annoying. I've been trying to find a better M2's. I agree on the low's though. I wanted something with great lows but the mid really shines more.- Zaarin

Longest Lifespan of an IEM You Own?
My shure e3c's would last maybe 5-10 months each. I would send them to repair and they would just send me a new one. I went through a couple and they were all bad before the year mark. I eventually tried out the Shure 215's and they lasted maybe 2 years at most.- Zaarin

Ath m-50 comfort
I can see what you guys are talking about regarding the clamp. It's not terrible but it's noticeable. The sweat is more noticeable though. Sucks you dont like yours. Sometimes I feel this pressure right above my ear.- Zaarin
