Hello, I just recently bought a pair of ESW9A's and it looks like the pouch that came with it won't do.   There is a case I've seen mentioned often, the AT-HPP5: http://www.audiocubes.com/product_info.php?cPath=23_51&products_id=2991   but it seems it is completely unavailable and...

Hi guys,   I’ve been doing a lot of research on the ESW9 and almost about to buy it. However, I came across a lot of posts in this forum about fakes and am very worried. There are used sets going for about $170 on Amazon warehouse deals.  ...

Hey guys!  Glad I joined the community...I recently picked up a pair of AKG F550's. I've watched a few reviews on youtube, read posts on this forum and I was sold on them. I got my package today, gave them a listen and they sounded incredible...I just want a little more bass. I returned them...

Hi, Im looking for headphones that look good and at the same time sound good. My budget is $300 and im looking at the blue bose qc15 and beats executives. are there any headphones that look good, sound good, and are around 300 bucks. thanks

Hey Head-Fiers!    im looking for a pair of headphones with preferably a detachable cable. I don't own a amp/dac so that may have to be included within the budget.     The type of music i listen to is hardcore/post-hardcore, alternative, metal/alternative metal, rock, techno, i do...

Hi   I'm using CLIp+ with Brainwavz M2 as my main source (as you see in my profile picture). But I have FIIO E17 which I like it very much but I'm looking for a good 'MUSICAL' headphone which will complement E17's ability. Brainwavz M2 is good but I'm looking for a similar signature in...

I'm looking for something with outstanding sound (primarily) and portability (secondarily). I'm leaning towards M-100 unless someone can eloquently talk me out of it.

Due to the discount I have at bestbuy, I've accounted for a higher price range if bought from there. I'm currently looking at the Sennheiser Momentums, AKG K550, Audio technica ATH-ESW9A, and Monster Inspirations unless something else is suggested. I considered stretching the price range for the...

I love my Sennheiser 598's but I feel for certain types of music they are lacking in bass.  I'm looking for headphones that would go well as a contrast to these headphones, with a budget of up to $300 but not a hard limit.

Hey there guys,     Another "which headphones?!" thread, and input from owners would be amazing. Currently my go-to headphone is the K830BT and K501 (I had to sell everything else. major downgrade yeah I know) I got tired of how the K450 sounded, veiled and muddy. Though... Now I am in need...

Hello fellow head-fi'ers     I am going to buy a new set of cans,  I have narrowed it down to these:   AIAIAI - TMA-1 Studio or Beatport (not top on my list but i think they sound pretty decent and are surprisingly comfortable.) AKG K550 AKG Q701 ATH-A900X ATH-ESW9A     I...

I seem to post quite a few threads asking for advice on headphones, even though I read a trillion reviews around here. Anyway, I'm thinking about getting the Audio Technica ATH-ES10 for Christmas as I don't have a pair of high end (not ultra high end like the Sennheiser HE90) over-ears. I've...

So I have come to hear about the two different versions of the ESW-9's. Can anyone confirm about the existence of the ESW-9JPNs?  Also, the difference between the two? 

Intro A short review for a very specific purpose, below follows my mini review comparison of the Audio-Technica ATH-ESW9 and Denon AH-D2000, as some requested via PM when they saw my recent FS ad. Equipment Used - Power cord: Signal Cable Silver Resolution Reference - Digital source...

Really loving them, but would like them brought a little "out of my head."   Edit: Now I just want one I can fit my ears in.

The searches I've run in the Forums identify J&R and B&H as places to see a lot of the higher-end headphone on display.  I'm interested in finding a place in NYC (Manhattan, ideally) that will allow me to listen to different models under proper conditions (i.e., a proper headphone amp).  Any...

I narrowed it down to these two headphones for my first (higher end) headphones, and I was wondering if anyone who's had experience with these could give me a little advice on which to pick. I listen to alot of Classical and jazz, and also music like Mumford & Sons (not really sure what genre...

Forgetting bluetooth, noise cancelling, comfort, and all other such factors.. which of these headphones would you guys consider as the best in terms of sound quality alone? Given that all of them are used in their peak form, without any amps! Listening Genre is rock and metal. 

Hi,   I've been looking around for the past few months to replace/upgrade from my dying/dead Audio Technica ATH-M50's. As a result, and after seeing all the possibilities, I ended up creating the "Mid-Fi Closed Portable Battle 2012 Discussion" thread, seeing as many people were in similar...

Basically I want something decent, for around £250 or less (think around 400$?) for rap, hip hop and DnB. With good bass, and just clear. I have no experience with headphones or sounds so don't knock me for my lack of knowledge haha! Listened to Beats and thought they were okay but not for the...

I started a post on here that I am leaving behind. I was considering the Bose QC 15 to replace my BEATS because the beats are horrible headphones, but I am now on a list of 4. Help me decide because I am leaving for a trip and need peoples opinions:     Ok. So I am down to 4 final...

I'm in the market for some decent cans. I had the beats because that's what my girl got me and I also had the sol republics. Hated them. I'm eye balling the skullcandy mixmasters and the Bose QC 15. A buddy told me to investigate the soul by ludacris but I've lost faith in products rappers put...

So,   I received a pair of ATH-M50's for Christmas a few years ago, but never quite fell in love with them.  Listened to them just 4 or 5 times after breaking them in for ~ 40 hours.   I think overall closed headphones aren't just for me.  Could you please recommend a headphone that: ...

Hey guys,   So, I've been lurking around head-fi for a while now and I've seen several of the "beginners guides to finding the right headphone", but I feel as if the headphones I'm looking for are sort of unique.   Ideally, they'd be a pair of over-ear headphones.    SQ should be...

New the the community and am in need of some advice on what to do.   My daughter just had a birthday and received a pair of Dre's Beats.  My wife being generous purchased a pair for me as well.  She bought them at Best Buy based on the salesperson's advice.  See how my daughter is happy an...
