Headphone Buyer's Guide - Page 13

An awesome list indeed.
But many of these are far beyond my meager uni-student budget. In fact, in Canada, most of these cost more than twice as much as what is listed here, if you can even find them...

Very nice guide

You should add the M-Audio Q40s to the "$70-$150 Closed Headphones" category. They are excellent and very well balanced studio monitors

Sennheiser's HD580s are listed as "2" (amp suggested but not required) while the HD600s are listed as "3" (amp required). Don't these two models have the same drivers and other internals? I ask because I'm considering picking up some 580s and wondering if a CMoy will provide sufficient power.

Which headphones are the best in production? In other words, which are the best headphones that I can buy new? A lot of the out of production stuff is probably going to be used and I'm just scared about new stuff.

I'm guessing the Edition 9 or maybe the D7000 when it comes out?

you are missing cx500 and ATH AD900
Could you please add it in?

Thanks for the great guide. Really convenient for a headphone nub such as myself.

There are no "the best", as we all have different preferences.
I don't think you can go much wrong with a Stax SR-007A or MKII though..

Nice list

Nice guide, Any chance Market prices will be revised frequently?

Thanks again!

Great post for newcomers like me

As someone who is about to invest, this post is really useful. One of the unusual things about head-fi seems to be than you pretty much have to buy blind, this overview really helps.

Thanks!

Good thread, very helpful. It helped me a lot in the past.

Great job !

Thanks

Thanks for all the great info. I love this site...

Me too, thanks

Very helpful thread.

I hope we can add some recently discontinued headphones in the list, especially those still are widely available in the used market. They can be really good deal for the $.
