    Also saw Amelie recently. 8/10, really enjoyable but a lot of weird stuff that was (imo) pointless

    how comfortable are the ATH-AD900s compared to the AD700s, for a person with a small head? i tried the AD700s and while they feel really nice, they're just too massive for my head.

    I suppose they are rather solid, but they still feel plasticky.

    oh cool. well anyway, that just proves they tried to get the mod SQ as possible, disregarding noise isolation and leakage.

    Intro Let me just start by saying: i'm no audiophile. These are my first pair of full size headphones, and i am certainly not disappointed. So on to the review:   Initial Impressions not good. I tried a pair at a headphone store; at first, their soundstage was obviously thin, and the...

    How much of a difference to comfort does the Sennheiser 414 pads make? (in comparison to the stock comfies). The main problem i have with my MS1is is that the stock comfies heat up my ear VERY rapidly. They also get rather scratchy at times and washing them in fabric softener did squat. I'm...

    Quote:   shipping is free in both cases   Quote: ooh, good idea. i'll shoot them an email now, although is assume that if there is a problem with them, they will have to get them fixed by the supplier (unless they themselves have the skills and equipment necessary for repair)

    How Should I Get My Alessandro MS1is?

    i currently live in Perth so my choices are either: A. Order them from the Alessandro website for $109 plus free shipping (that's USD so will actually be less in AUD) B. Order them from Headphonic (http://headphones.com.au) for AUD139; this option will arrive soon, plus there's less risk of...

    Best Headphones under $30 (shipped to Australia)

    you should see your local stores. shipping from most places would be too expensive.

    Best Headphones under $30 (shipped to Australia)

    Please be more polite. You can't buy a (reasonably) nice pair of headphones for under 30$ in Australia, shipping is just too expensive. JB HiFi online has the HD 202's for 70$ with free shipping Australia wide. Headphonic was mentioned because they have a very nice lineup of headphones, albeit...

    About to buy Alessandro MS1i, question is: is it worthwhile to get a FiiO E7 to use as a DAC for my Macbook Pro if my files are encoded in V0/320? I know that V0 is often considered "transparent", but does that change if you use an E7?

    Generic 'Which headphones should I start with' thread.

    a bit late to mention this now, but it's a bit odd how nobody mentioned the Alessandro MS1i considering that it has free shipping worldwide. You save so much money that you can buy a FiiO E7 without feeling guilty.

    hmmmm, might just spring for E7 and bowls  *sigh* if only audio gear were more affordable anything to say about the soundstage? I heard it can be quite harsh

    I'm going to get the Alessandro MS1i soon. However, i am still uncertain whether i should get a FiiO E7 to pair with it, or just use the money to buy a pair of bowl pads. I heard the MS1i does not amp well, and i certainly would not like to pour money down the drain. I'm no audiophile; i will be...
