Looking for the best closed over the ear headphones and I´ve narrowed it down to these contenders.   What are your opinions? Which one should have the title?   I know Tyll loves the NAD VISO HP50, so I´m the most interested in that one and the RoomFeel feature interests me ´cause I´m also a...

Hi guys   Planning to buy the Audeze LCD-2 this week along with the Fiio X3 Player.   What i want is an amp that will fit in my pocket and that will not be too much bigger than the X3 Player. Willing to spend up to around the $300 max if possible.   I don't need to have the best sound ever...

Right now I'm using an HD650 with my Little Dot Mk IV SE amplifier. I'm wondering if I could get some opinions on good 'phones for upgrading. I'm mainly a classical music listener. I like a warm midrange. I'd like to keep it around $1000 or less. I know that the Hifiman HE500 is one possibility...

Hello everyone I am looking to upgrade my dac and was wondering if you all had some recommendations for an Audeze LCD2.  I was looking for sometime in the neighborhood of $700 and I am fully willing to buy used.  Also something with a good USB input would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you in...

Able to play most of genres with lil compromise?   ddnt have the chance to audition the Fostexs…   So far, its the T1; granted that you can pair it with a very good amp (HE6 is the hardest to drive and followed by T1)

Imagine a darkened room and fine scotch in a crystal glass by your side. An oaky aroma wafts over you, a smooth taste caresses your tongue, followed by a pleasant warmth on the way down. The LCD-2. Sitting at a race-track with a light beer. Smells like beer, tastes like beer-flavoured water...

So I developed a passion for listening to high quality music. My current headphone is the Sennheiser HD555. I play all of my music out of my computer so at the moment I use a 6.3mm to 3.5mm adaptor I believe to plug it into my PC (am i losing quality?). Any music I download is strictly WAV...

Can you compares IEMs with full-size headphones?  I was wondering if a comparison could be made with the Etymotic ER 4 S and the LCD 2, HE 6, HE 500.  Its really the sound you're comparing.  I think ergonomics might come second, after the sound.  Anyway, I hope some kind of roundup could be done.

Dear Head-Fiers,     I'm looking for an all-round headphone that will see use in music, movies and gaming.     I was previously considering a DT880 paired with a tube amp but now I've read that headphones like the DT880, HD600 and HD650 are only good for classical and jazz, and are...

I am searching for a pair of headphones that works good, usually, i hear house, chillwave, inditronice and indie pop. I like the senn hd800, but they are more expensive and need a good amp to move them. Then i check the hd700, that does'nt need a powerfull amp like the hd800, but a friend talk...

It would be interesting for everyone to list their THREE most comfortable cans they've ever worn.... BarryT

What would the general consensus be on these two fine phones? Currently I have the Beyer DT990/600 and a Headroom micro amp/dac which is just ok but definitely tons of room for improvement. I feel like these cans are just under-powered and really want to upgrade to one of the above headphones...

I just wanted to make a recommendation on a travel bag that is working out great with my LCD2's. I really like the hard plastic case that comes with the headphones, but I like this if I'm just heading out and want to carry along some additional items. The curve for the hip area seems to be the...

I just wanted to make a post saying thanks to Audez'e for being so on point. I've never dealt with a headphone company (make that any company!) that's had such quality customer service to pair up with such a fantastic product. I've had a few failures with my LCD-2s that arose simply because I...

 For those clamoring for another review in print of the lcd check out the march 2013 issue of the hifi news record review magazine out of england.Just thought i would put this out there for anyone interested.

Hi! I would like to know what is the chance of audeze lcd2 diaphragm to be blown out by a WA6SE?   Currently, I do a short on-off-on cycle due to tube noises (changing the tubes), suddenly, I heard deep (but not loud) sound. I am afraid that the relay fail to operate due to this short...

The LCD-2 has been out for awhile, yet I have not found anybody modding the sonics of the LCD-2. There are cable mods, headband mods, DIY LCD-2 stands and woody grills. With the appearance of the LCD-2 Rev2 and the LCD-3, there are lots of LCD-2 Rev1 owners out there that would like to give...

In your opinion, what pair of headphones do you own that completely blow people out of the water?   If they were new to the audio world, what cans would you try and wow them with?   I'm curious to see everyone's responses, and hopefully there is variety among them

Yesterday I received these three headphones as demos from The Cable Company. I thought I should post my initial impressions.   RS1i - crisp, very detailed, possibly favors the upper end, but very nice so far. Also very efficient (loud for given volume setting).   T1 - These are hard to...

I am trying to find a nice set of headphones... and i was told this was the best place to go   Look at this thread on overclock.net for the whole 'war' that has been going on. reply on here or there, your choice

Hi! I'm selling my HE-400 because the bass is too weak for my tastes, and now I need a replacement. Ive been doing some research, and LCD-2/Fostex seems like the way to go. Someone said you pay alot for the pretty wood on TH-900, and that the drivers on the TH-600 are essentially the same...

This isn't a review; it's more of a short story I wanted to share about how my wallet got a lot lighter yesterday.      I just got back from working in Saudi Arabia and every time I'm there I love to read this forum in my down-time. I always end up coveting something and generally buy it...

I first auditioned both headphones at my local headphone store. Due to finance issues, I only considered the LCD2s and I didn't really like it, but the next time I went to the store, I decided to put on the LCD3 just for a fun and I was AMAZED!    I just got my LCD3 today and I borrowed a...

6 Years ago I bought a HD555. It was good all around and I used it mostly for games. Then one day I went to my really rich uncle's house in China and I plugged my HD555's into his $10,000 cd player. I remember being completely WOW'd.  It sounded so real.  (keep in mind up until that point...

Just curious for info to get a new set of cans. I have denon D5000 with Meier stepdance which Sounds perfect. I have a schiit LYR sounds very good more smooth heavier bass. I would like a set of cans that have the very best mids and highs for the money $200-$600 but not lack bass. I will be...
