Monoprice Hi-Fi DJ Style Headphone Review - Page 2
Heya,
I actually grabbed the HP541 and Monprice too just to compare. They'll get looked over by a lot of the folk around here I'm afraid, but, I have to say, these are not what you expect honestly for $20.
Very best,

Good take on them.. I think they are one in the same as the kickers..Let the flood gates open!! Why would you not get one is my question..These are still one of my faves and in my headphone rotation at work.. Without a doubt a Gem like no other..

So if you were selling these MalVeauX, how much would you ask for?
Heya,
I think they make the $150 price tag of M50's seem silly.
Very best,

O yeah, I think we should take some time out to thank Dsnuts for the introducing the Kickers HP451 to the community. If it weren't for her him, we probably wouldn't be talking about these cans right now.
Edit: oh, oops

Np and thanks.

So since you are indeed a "basshead" (self-classified :-)), do you think these are a good option and give fight to at least
the Sony XB500/XB700 (or any Ultrasone you might have heard of?)
Thanks.
BTW, to the OP, good review. Lovely pictures!
But the question still stands, do these Monoprice and Kickers sound exactly the same, is there absolutely no difference, dampening and such are identical too? I suppose Monoprice is US based and pretty much selling their gear themselves so finding this in EU will be hard, very hard I suppose.

I would imagine they're exactly the same as everything about them looks the same. I haven't used actual OEM Kicker HP541's to justify if they are exactly the same.
