It's a good day to live in southern California

Quote:     This makes me want them even more. Just a couple days, and they're only in San Diego

Just ordered the Mad Dogs! So excited, they should be here on Tuesday or Wednesday

Quote: I've had them for almost a year and a half. They're kind of uncomfortable and the sound is still way too harsh. The M80s are horribly uncomfortable too, and I've stretched them quite a bit. They were almost unbearable when I first got them. Quote: Well you've convinced me...

Quote: Yeah I'm a student and don't have much money to spend, so cheap is always a plus

Well if I ever plan on using them as portables I have my D2+, and I plan on getting the Modi and Magni, unless there's something just as good, for decently cheap. Any suggestions?

Hey guys, I've been reading this thread for awhile and I have a few questions.   I really feel like pulling the trigger on these, they have pretty much everything I want from headphones. My only question is do they handle rock music well? I'm coming from a pair of M80s and don't like how...

Hey gents,   I'm looking for some advice. I'm looking for some closed headphones for about $300 to maybe $350. I want them to be very comfortable for extended listening sessions, portability is definitely a plus, and I would prefer if they didn't leak too much.   Sound-wise I want...

Can't argue that logic, thanks for the help guys. Do you think the Modi and Magni would pair well with the DT770s? They're take up very little room which is nice, and they seem good enough to keep around for a long time since I wont be purchasing any top-tier headphones for quite some time.

Quote: Would you recommend them over the Maddogs or Momentums? Or is the price difference really not worth it?

Quote: Do they have good clarity? I really don't enjoy headphones that sound congested or muffled.

Quote: Ohhh thank you for the clarification, they look extremely nice and I'll probably pick some up in the future. Would you say the DT770s are a better by since they're significantly cheaper than the rest? If they're fun to listen to I'd have no problem saving myself the money.

Thanks for the suggestions, but would there be any cheaper alternatives to the Stax pads? I've read that the Maddogs are very comfortable (the $300 model that is). And which version of the DT770s would you say is best? The 80 or 250 ohm?

Hey there,   I'm looking for a pair of headphones for when I go off to college. I currently own some Ultrasone Pro900s and some M80s, and while I do enjoy them, I want something more.   Basically I'm looking for headphones that a very, very comfortable that I can listen to for hours at a...

Quote: Yes, the bass is still very good unamped. An amp is not a necessity with these at all, it just makes them a little better. Also know that these headphones are very good at picking up the faults in bad recordings. Some songs sound awful with these but that is purely the...

Quote: The 900s sound great out of a laptop or iPod. I use an Ibasso D2+ to power mine but if you're looking for something cheaper just go with the Fiio e11. More than enough power to drive these headphones.

Like Mal said none at all. Mine have sounded the same since the day I got them.

Quote: Well maybe I'm not looking so much for an upgrade as much as a compliment to my 900's. That being said I think I'm leaning more so towards the Denons as I've been craving something warmer/darker than the 900's. Also I've read you can get them for about $210 from J&R if you call...

Hey guys,   Recently I caught the upgraditus bug and I'm looking for some new headphones. I currently have the Ultrasone Pro 900's and I'm using them with an Ibasso D2+ Boa and Ipod Classic 160gb. I love the headphones but nowadays they're sounding very cold to my ears. They're also not...

A guy bought the UE custom cables (after September 1st, 2012), he says they're snug but they fit.   Here's the thread: http://www.head-fi.org/t/582789/ue-custom-cable-for-triple-fi-10s   There's a pic on the second page of the thread.

This website has them for $332 after shipping: http://www.thenerds.net/SONY.Sony_Studio_Monitor_MDR_EX1000_Earphone_Stereo_Mini_phone.MDREX1000.html?affid=8 I've never bought from them but it has over 7100 user ratings on google, so its probably reliable. I've been looking into the EX1000's...

Quote: Thank you for the reply, and I'm not expecting any kind of audio miracles. I almost never listen to music at my desktop so portable is what I'm really after. I don't think an amp is going to necessarily "improve" the sound as much as it is going to refine it. That's what I'm going...

Hey Guys,  I'm going to be getting a portable amp for Christmas but I'm not sure which amp is better. Is the P4 worth the extra $70? I can't seem to find a complete review on either one. I'll be using my Ipod Classic 160gb and Ultrasone Pro 900's which I understand don't really need an amp...

Quote: ^^ This     Quote: I just received my 900s and I absolutely love them. I have no comfort issues whatsoever with the stock pads, I find them very comfortable. I personally don't like the pads on my XB500's, they certainly isolate better but they make my ears hot...

I can't say anything about the Audio Technicas as I've never used them, but Most Beyerdynamics are very comfortable. You may want to look into those.
