    Audio Technica ESW9A from Adorama - Are they Legit?

    Hello All,   Adorama has a killer price on these headphones.  However, after searching this website it appears they sold one individual a fake.  This is suprising to me because the get killer ratings from resllerreview.com and I've used them for photo equipment in the past and they have...

    ATH-W1000, VS RS2i/1, VS D5000

    ATH-W1000X mods

    I got a few requests / questions so I decided to get off my lazy ass and take a few snapshots. A few notes:   I didn't want to go overboard because I wanted to retain some of the AT woody flavor. Don't put on the back of the cup - there isn't enough clearance between the cup and the...

    Name some GREAT Closed Back Headphones, like Denon D7000.

    I am really liking my D7000 for private listening.  What else is as GREAT or better out there?  It seems like most "top of the line" models from makers are Open back design.

    Headphones for office.

    Hi, guys. I have changed job recently, and my opened Grados 125 are too loud for the new office. So I am thinking about closed headphones about same or better sound quality, if possible. I don't mind to spend twice Grados 125 price. What I want at the end of the day is good sound, which would...

    The Numbering Disease: Where Skullcandy and Monster Win

    Why do most headphone companies just label all their models with a few numbers and a letter or two thrown it?   DT880, HD650, K701, etc, etc.  They don't tell you anything about what you are buying.  They've got no emotion.  For the most part only Monster and Skullcandy actually name all...

    Fedex ground?

    So, I've used the search tool and can only find old threads from years ago.   So I ask of you guys this.     I ordered the W1000X from AT cuz they were upgrading my CK10s. Paid for them, and they said they're sending by UPS ground. I asked if they can send it with USPS and they said...

    Simple question, simple answer :) Jh16 agree or disagree?

    So my portable rig includes the AT W1000x. As whoever looks up on this fullsized cans, it's praised for its mids and overall balance. Good for vocal/classical/acoustic.     So I'm looking towards getting an IEM to take with me also.   I think it would be rather stupid of me to get the...

    Newbie disenchanted with Grados.. please help!

    I used to be really into DJing and have had a pair of Technics rp-dj1200 that I've used for the past 10 years. I recently decided that if music is so important to me, I should get myself a decent pair of headphones. So after much reading and deliberation, I settled on the Grado 225's. They...

    Are there any reccomendations for headphones which emphasize the mid range and roll off the highs and bass?

    Audio-Technica ATH-A900Ti

    Hi all, Just yet I ordered the Audio-Technica ATH-A900Ti headphones. Found them on eBay for about €270, including shipping. Very reasonable price, although I doubt Australians will find it very amusing their dollar is tanking so badly. However, I'm really looking forward to receiving them...

    ATH-M50 and my other headphone experiences. [Mini-Review]

    I've been round the block and back again. I just felt like doing a mini review and almost nostalgia session. As you can see in my Sig I have tried a decent amount of mid-fi headphones. I recently sold my k701's (my latest headphones) and did a downgrade because I was curious about the Audio...

    Hi Head-fiers,   I've never really gone through the effort to write a review while A/Bing headphones for the purpose of writing a review. For this review, I actually spent several hours on several songs trying to pinpoint some minute differences that I hope would be helpful for any readers...

    The $700-$1000 range

    Thought I would start a new thread since it turns out what I am looking for is not really "cost no object".   My ceiling is $1000. My music is 50s-60s jazz (mostly) and some rock - jazz is the priority! I now own AT 900 Ltds and like them very much but after five years would just like...

    Perfection in the eyes of deception?

    I always felt compelled to get a pair of Audio Technica es10 headphones, in the near future. So far the price was the only factor that put me off. Recently, however, I read that they use pleather ear pads? How would Audio Technica make such an illogical choice? They are their most expensive...

    ATH-W1000x coming to the U.S. , 2011 CES coverage.

    Just read on Enjoy the Music that the ATH-W1000x is coming to the US market. Is this better than the currently available AT-W5000?

    Audio-Technica W1000X vs the W5000?

    They both seem to be about the same price (600 to 700 dollars), so which one would you prefer?   The W5000 seems to be Audio Technica's flagship model at the moment, but I've heard many good things about the W1000X too. Is there something the latter has that the former doesn't?

    Moving up from M50's

    So i have the oppurtunity to get new headphones for my computer this holiday season and  i thought i would look into it. My budget would be around 300-500$. I listen to mostly electro-house, dubstep, nu-rave, alternative, and some indie. I will be plugging into this...

    Headphones with a natural "sideways D shaped" frequency response?

    Long time, no post. These days, I mostly listen to Bose QC2s at work ( http://www.amazon.com/review/R2DILGPAJWNDSN/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm ) and Denon D1000s or Senn HD497s at home, so my audiophile days are behind me for the moment. I do have a Cute Beyond headphone amp and quite a bit of my home...

    Light, easy to deal with headphones, study headphones - that won't bore a head-fi vet

    Hey Guys,   Well I guess "vet" might be a bit of a strong word (especially when compared to true vets haha), but I am no noob.   I have heard headphones from just about every company out there, a fair amount of amps...   Right now I am completely satisfied with my main rig. I...

    ATH W1000X or Denon D5000 or something else in that range...

    I would like to buy headphones for listening to classical and ambiental music... I had AKG recently (AKG 701), but I didn't liked them at all. (Because of sterility and power demands.)   My amplifier is going to be AMB CKIII. (Right now, it is in process of making.)       Any...
