Hey, just started on this forum and so far has proved to be most awesome.   I'm currently after a new pair of cans to replace my Phillips Stretch's and have been looking at the Audio Technica ATH ES7 and ES55's. I'm more inclined to go for the ES7's as judging by what I've heard about them...

Hihi first timer here, and I'm finally stepping into the world of headphones (I've been using earphones all my life) LOL.  Umm yeah, I'm looking for trendy looking headphones, that preferably has color, thats less than $100AUD (probably around $80US), but still have good-ish sound.  I want to...

So I was hoping someone could recommend a good headphone amp BUT:   My budget is probably under under 50 bucks (MUST) And also not too big, I plan to just use it with my iPod Touch (Doesn't have to be small, but prefer it to be)   Also, will an amp that cheap even make a...

I currently have the ATH-ES7's and have been pretty pleased although saw the AKG's and was curious how do the compare and for what types of music? Thanks, Joe.

With the expected announcement of the ATH-ESW10JPN and the somewhat unexpected AD1000PRM (ESW10 thread here), Audio-Technica quietly announced the new ES55. Unlike the ES5, this new Ear Suit model looks somewhat like a miniature version of the ES7. The ES55 will be released in Japan in late...

Hello guys, sorry to barge in with my 1st post like this.. been following the forum for some time, but haven't signed up, until now.   I've been looking to replace my in-ear sennheisers with some (preferably) closed back, cans and good noise cancellation..   Which headphones do you think...

I know a lot about full sized headphones and have owned and tried many of them. Recently I've begun searching for a set of portables or in ears.... and I'm just overwhelmed by the choices I have. I'm hoping to keep this sub $150. 1. Isolation is preferred (doesn't have to be completely...

I came across these whilst having a quick look around the net for some nicely priced ES7's and was wondering what you guys think?  Fake or not? i do not believe it is a pricing error on the site as the white ones are listed at the same price, will anyone be taking the jump and purchasing...

I listen to tech-house deep-house ,rap and reggea so which one is best suited for me.....greetings tim

Anyone here a brand-loyal type of person like me? I owned/own a variety of IEMs from different mfgr but am gravitating toward Sennheiser for their sound signature, design, etc. Worried I will miss out on other good sound (i.e. Westone 4s) but I love my Sennheisers.

I'm looking for a pair of stylish, portable, comfortable, and good-sounding  on ear headphones. in addition to sound quality, they must be very comfortable and not be noticable when wearing for long hours. I currently have the sennheiser HD 202 (I know, laugh), and sometimes, they irritate...

Long time reader (1 year +) first time poster. I did quite a lot of research on this subject but I came out with no clear answer. People says srh840 blow m50 and 440 out of the water. Some people says that if you are not using any amp 440 is the more logical choice. However alot of reviews...

Hi-   I'm new here! Been browsing for awhile.. figured I'd just join!   Anyway.   I recently had a set of Audio Technica headphones. I have had them for over a year, and the cord finally gave out. I returned them to Guitar Center, where I had them price-matched at, and I received an...

HI,   I'm looking for a pair of new headphones and i arrested myself in two modeles:   AKG Q460   Audio Technica ATH ES-7   I can't choose between those two because i like the look of the AKG but i don't really know how about its sound..but i listen to hip hop and electro music...

I'm looking to buy some new headphones for around £100 and I'm currently torn between a few:   I want a comfortable, robust/durable pair of headphones that are portable but have big enough cups to fit around my ears (rather than sit on top of them).   Currently I'm interested in several...

Hey I am new to the forum but I have been a guest for a while!   This will be my first post and I would like to thank everyone ahead for their time and knowledge.   I am looking to buy these ATH-ES7, since they are discontinued it's quite hard to find a pair for a good price.   I...

Hi All.   I am sure the answers are somewhere already, but afraid I don't have time to read through so many discussions about specifics.... I have no idea about frequencies, waves, maths and such.   I am looking for some headphones, as swimmer's ear stops me from using my IEMs (...

Hello Head-fi, I am quite new in the audiophile community. Currently looking for some headphones that can catch my interest. My current rig are, Headphone : ATH-ES7, Earphone : Fisher Audio Genesis, soundmagic PL-50, Denon c452, Player : Samsung Yp-Q2, Cowon J3, AMP : Go-vibe martini, Corda XXS...

After only about a year of use (I have several other headphones that I use also) the thin cable is going open on one channel. I'd send it to AT for them to fix but I want a thicker gauge cable so I don't end up with the same trouble, so I don't think they would do a custom job. I don't have the...

Hey,    I have had my ES7s for a year and recently the left earpiece stopped working (the wire probably detached) and although I know I can probably send them back to Audio-Technica for repair, they are the most uncomfortable headphones I have ever worn, pinching my temples in a vice like...

Hello Head Fi forum users.   I am looking at buying new headphones (as the title suggests) I have looked at a lot of the threads on the site but I still haven't been able to come to a decision.   Budget is not much of a concern. I am listen to most types of music but I prefer that the...

Innuendo aside, I'm looking for some good portable headphones(full size) that look cool and aren't bulky but still deliver good sound quality. I will want to use them in public/at school/etc. so that is why bulkiness and looks enter into the equation. I think this might help a lot of people...

I want to avoid Chinese sellers like the plague, but I saw a couple of this:auction coming out of the US: http://cgi.ebay.com/Audio-Technica-ATH-ES7-/140490891206?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20b5e8dfc6#payId   Anayway, I didn't see these on Newegg, and I know Amazon does get fkes, any...

I wish I had the time right now to read and research, but I don't. I have my final exam in a few days with tons of material to cover and my neighbors are driving me screwing nuts and I'm getting really pissed off and I can't study.   Please suggest in ear headphones that are decent that I can...

Some help reqd here pls, re my ATH-ES7's I am loosing sound on the left  channel.  But when ever I move or fiddle with cord coming out of the left speaker or headphone cup I get sound, sounds to me like a loose wire or something like that.  The right one work fine.  I love these headphones and...
