Haha nice cosplay. I don't have that muscular body though =)) Yes, they are mirrored and V-MODA did it on their own. It would looks unnatural otherwise anyway. After doing some A-B with my M50, they have very opposite sound signatures, XS has dark tonality and more bass quantity for sure, the...

Only more portable and better build quality + design, Sound quality and comfort wise, my M50 wins hands down. M50 has larger soundstage, more airy, sweet midrange, and much better treble extension (very sparkle). On the other hand, XS has more upfront and neutral midrange (M50 is a bit...

Mine just arrived this morning, sexiest and toughest on-ear headphones I have ever seen Sound quality is great so far, I love the midrange, smooth upfront. I wish it could be a bit colored like my M50 though. Treble is much better and not rolled off like M80 And here's another big fan of Fairy...

Quote: how's the midrange and soundstage ???

To me AD900x headband fits much better than AD900, which I think the headband is too loose I can't even feel the "wings" of AD900x on my head at all and it wouldn't slide down or bulge on my head. On other note, I have to agree that AD900x on open box sounds seriously congested. I couldn't...

Quote: I assure you that AD900x will have much better low end than AD900. Last time I auditioned AD900, I thought the sound was way too thin and lifeless, not so with my AD900x, bass is tight and midrange sounds pretty full.

Quote: I just read his review and it seems the only thing that E12 won over c421 is bass. However, what I'm looking for is cleaner midrange and larger soundstage 'cause my E10 adds a little too much warmth to AD900x and the ss is even worse than plugging directly to my iPad. His review...

Can anyone recommend an amp/dac for my AD900x. Would C421 be a good choice ? I'm using Fiio E10 right now!! 

Received my AD900x yesterday, been burning them for around 15 hours already. Sound out of the box does not really impress me much going from my white M50, I actually found my M50 sound cleaner than AD900x. I hope after fully burn-in (100 hours??), it will be like what Dsnuts reviewed. Well my...

Not expecting much though, Xperia phones have never regarded as good PMPs

I get the feeling that every ATH headphones are godsends for Dsnuts . 

Quote: Just out of curious, how's your impression on MDR-1R. 

Love my M50....Waiting for my AD900x    I believed you 've said that your A900x sound 10x better than M50, can you elaborate more :D

Got one on order from cdjapan for around 207$ (250$ shipping). Hope that AD900x will blow my M50 away. Given the price on amazon to be 2x of M50's, I expect sound quality is also 2x better, lol

Quote: lol, new avatar =)) And I just went and ordered one from cdjapan for roughly around 200$, it's going to arrive in 4-5 days. I seriously hope that it will destroy my M50 =))

Quote: If AD900x has the same comfort as AD700 then it's definitely more comfy than HD598 

Quote: Say, how do you feel about the bass on AD900x compare to AD700. Last time I tried AD700, the bass is seriously too weak for my liking   Can you compare the bass on AD900x and HD595? HD598 bass was good so I guess 595 should be the same.

If you plan to wear it 6 hours a day, HD598 is the way to go. The other two are really uncomfortable, I can hardly wear them for more than 30 minutes

Quote: I heard that AD1000 is only a marginal upgrade over AD900 whereas AD2000 has different sound signatures than the lower tier. Hence, that's maybe why people prefer AD900/ AD900x and 2000

Speakers for sure, it definitely gives much better joy to listen to, especially that you don't have anything annoying on your head.  Nonetheless, the only downside is cost...!

Excuse me? 80% on Fiio E10 ? Low gain or High Gain ??? If it's high gain, I suggest you to see a doctor before worrying about your headphones...

Quote: Apple's product quality is good you know, if not the best...Their products excel in term of both quality and aesthetics, even the customer supports are top notch. On the other hands, Beats products have only looks...not quality. 

Now I really eager to order a pair of AD900x here Can these cans play fast music well like metal, rock ? 

Quote: From your criteria, HD598 would be the best choice as they offer much better sound quality and gaming,movie experience than the other two due to larger soundstage. Comfort of HD598 is also miles ahead of them. Your XB700 should have much more bass than these cans though...
