Hello,   I'm looking for a new closed over-ear heaphone. I searched a lot on the net and read some buying guides but I haven't found one yet. The problem is that a lot of the headphones aren't available in my region, I live in Belgium.   Here's an alphabetical list of Headphones that...

Hi to all, this is my first post. I have iphone 4 and I would like to buy headphones... Recently I have try AKG K518DJ and I find that the sound for me is good...but I prefer to buy a good headphones (my budget is about 150 euro). I like a strong bass (like AKG K518) but balanced....In...

Hello there Head-Fi! I currently have the AKG K518DJ and I like them very much (SQ wise) but they're extremly uncomfterable!!! So I gathered up some cash, and I can get more, and I would like to buy a new pair of headphones that will work well with an iPhone, and connected to a (really good)...

Hello     The sound of the AKG K518DJ headphone is exactly what I want. It's bassy and clear at the same time, excellent for producing techno and listening to classical music. But since I'm taking calls while I'm listening to music, I would need a headphone with a mic.. The AKG alternative...

I just got my hands on these babies..Just unboxed them..Quality is superb! Lots of metal and the pads are soft as a cloud.   So far all i can say bout the comfort is that is is absolutely ace for me, even when i wear glasses. Now to find cans that sits on your head with comfort has been a...

Just got my refurbished XB700s in. I had to leave shortly after trying them out, but the bass didnt really blow me away. It has a lot (at least, for most people), but didnt really have THAT much more than my AKG K518, and I got the feeling that if the 518 had the same cushions to keep the sound...

Hi there I'm new on Head Fi so here is my first and I hope not the last one post on this forum :)    I'm looking for the good headphones for my iPod Video I believe it's 5th generation. I used before Sennheiser HD 205 and CX400 but my younger sister (aka evil child) broke them both... I was...

I find the sound of the HD25-1 ii very addictive but the clamping force not so much. In the "Closed Cans Shootout" review on headfonia, Mike stated that the K181dj has similar sound signature as HD25 but with even higher clamping force!...   So the question is anyone know of comfortable...

Hey everyone,      I have a pair of MDR-V6s that have seen me through two years of skiing on Mt. Hood -- on the hill & off... needless to say it's been a tough life for them.  I have had to replace the jack on them twice (they sounded just as good afterwards so I know I did it right, haha)...

I am interested in purchasing some portable H.P for use when running around town.   Narrowed them down to these 4   Senn PX 200II AKG K430 Beyerdynamic DTX300P Audio Technica ES7   From what I read on head-fi the K430s seem to have a durability issue with paint flacking off...

What I am looking for are some closed headphones, preferably passive noise isolation. They must also be able to be easily driven on a mp3 player such as the iPod Touch 4th gen or the Touch HD, I don't want to carry a amp around so headphones which really need that are not an option. I listen to...

I am considering on buying the Bose Headphones. I mainly listen to rock and rap. The only problem is that I hear there are better headphones for this price. I looked at the shure e3c but I dont like earbuds. Is there anything that looks as good as the Bose and is better?

Hey guys, I need a pair of headphones for college, so I don't disturb my roommate. What are the best headphones for around $50? They can be new or used.

Hi. Do you have any comfort issues with m-50?   Thanks.   P.S. What's the size of the cans? P.P.S. Any more comfy and more portable suggestions ?    

Hello, I am looking for some general purpose headphones for all types on music and games, not looking to spend too much.   Any suggestions?  

Hello everyone, I'm new here and am a total newbie at headphones. I'm looking to pick up my first set of headphones and have actually looked around.    For now, I prefer the headphones to be able to play well without amps. I like more of pop rock music, however, don't really know how to...

hi,   i have the AKG K518 headphones and i like them very much. Great sound and really good wear comfort and thats for 50€ - thats great. There is only one problem, the headphones look really big on my head. A friend has the WeSC Oboe headphones and they nuzzle on the head (i hope this is a...

Hey everyone. I'm sure you get a lot folk like me breezing through here, so I'll try to keep it brief!   After almost a year of use, my Koss KSC-75s (stock) have finally perished. Now I'm in the market for some new budget 'phones, but would much prefer some decent on/overs ears as I can't...

I've replaced pads on some other headphones before, mostly Sennheisers. Are the K518 pads replaced the same way, by pulling out the retaining frame that the pads are wrapped around? It seems like it's very tight and I don't want to risk damaging anything by prying with a screwdriver since I like...

Hello,   I was a happy AKG K-518DJ headphones owner untill I sold them to my friend. Now I want to buy myself some new headphones and I would like you do advice me something different.   Here are my criterias:   - excellent noice reduction (passive preferred) - good sound quality...

Hey there, Head-Fi! I'm new here, so please forgive me if I've posted in the wrong section, but I'm desperate for some help. You see, up until about 2 weeks ago, I, as ashamed as I am to admit it, was a Skullcandy fan. Yes, yes, I know it's depressing, but now that my fifth pair has been broken...

I was just curious on which headphones are better on the low end frequency chart. I Didn't want to double post but this goes for IEM and over ear.

having sold my full-size closed phones for something more portable I settled on the AKG 518LE (mainly because Amazon was selling the red ones for $45).... sound is great, perhaps a tad lacking in detail but I'm happy enough considering they're portable cans. BUT they are not the most comfortable...

I am interested in some headphones that are Portable (for school and for my home computer) Now certain headphones work better with a certain Type of music. With that said I will be listening To primarly hip hop, rap, and rock. I want something Stylish and not to large, hence portable. Now I...

Hi! I'm new here, so thank you for this forum.   So here is the case, I love the sound of the koss porta pro, but the headphones leak a lot! I can't even hear anything in the buss.   Is there any headphone with that same punchy bass and fierce sound with good isolation? I actually...
