Hey guys, I made an account to specifically ask this question. I'm new to the headphone world and find this process to be rather exciting. After searching for days i have come to a decision (not in stone) on these two headphones that provide great bass as well as quality. I like the Custom One...

Hi.  I'm looking for a nice headphones with rather warm sound.  Here's my last.fm page, so you could see what kind of music I listen to, but I listen to almost everything :P http://www.lastfm.pl/user/stereo_man I've searched through other forums and picked this ones:   * Philips...

Hey guys, here's the deal; I work at Futureshop and get pretty much half off most headphones. This means I can get Beats Pros for around 250$ and Sol Republic Ultra's for around 80$.    I have a pair of Studios which I bought off of a friend for a hundred bucks years ago and I dont like...

My first proper set of cans was the Technics RP-DH1200. I used these for DJing and for listening to music and really love how they sound with strong but not overpowering bass. Unfortunately, they suck in terms of durability as I'm on my 3rd pair now in 6 years (weak plastic points which a...

The following table is based on measurements, not manufacturer specs.   Target SPL is 110 dB SPL. The source is assumed to output 2 V. The amp is assumed to be a voltage source (0 ohm output impedance). Voltage, current, power are RMS figures.   What do the columns mean? S@1V is the...

I am looking to buy a very durable, comfortable and great sounding headphone. I don't mind wether it is over the ear or on the ear. I listen to 50% rock and 50% rap/ pop. I want something that will last a while, that I can listen for a while without pain and sound good. I have $150 to spend and...

I currently own a pair of modded Grado SR80i's. I love the sound they produce, but I have a couple of problems with them. They leak a ton, and they're really uncomfortable. So I am looking for a pair of closed cans that will have a similar sound, but without the subdued bass of an unmodded...

I'm currently using $15 headphones that I got from wallmart .. I can listen to music and it sounds alright but I woundered, if I were to have better headphones would the music actually sound better? never got a chance to use some nice headphones you know, due to low cash.

Sorry if this is long but I want to give a clear picture of what I am looking for.  First off I'm using a $10 pair of ear buds currently.  I want to get a better pair of headphones because I like listening to music in my car.  I don't have anything special in my car I just like the clear...

Price can be increased if necessary. I mainly listen to K-pop as well as a little rock. 

Hello,      Somewhat new here. Please bare with me. I am looking for headphones in the 100-150 price range. I will be listening on my ipod. No amps or anything like that. Most of the post I have seen so far are recommending only bass HEAVY headphones. I don't know if there is much difference...

Hello Head-Fi'ers. It's come to my attention that I may not actually be looking in the correct section for my 'perfect' headphones. In other words, IEM vs Full-sized I've went through a few cans that I initially liked, but after a little bit of listening, I feel have lost their luster...

Hi,   I just created a profile on this site so that i could find some help in picking out headphones. I listen to hard rock and metal. I like Metallica, Avenged Sevenfold, FFDP etc. I also like to listen to classic rock like Pink Floyd and Led Zepplin. I originally blindly bought Beats...

For about 6 months, I have had Audio Technica ATH-PRO700 Mk2s. What I wanted was pretty much M50s with a removable cord. I ended up getting dj headphones that hurt my ears a lot, leave much to be desired in the looks department, but sound good. I am thinking of selling these on Craigslist for...

Hey guys! I know that there are many threads based that are alot like mine, but i need some help. I listen to alot of Drum 'n Bass, Hip-Hop, and Rock, but the headphones I am looking for need to focus on the first two genres I listed. I will be using an iPod Touch 4g (unamped), so the headphones...

I'm looking for a nice pair of headphones. To be more specific, on-ear or over-ear headphones. I listen to a lot of bass-heavy songs like rap, dubstep, techno, and on occasions I listen to some more instrumental music like Marvin Gaye, metal and rock. I want something that is bass-heavy when it...

I want these headphones but in all WHITE color just like in this picture. I can only find the all black pair. would I have to buy the black one and then buy everynew piece white?? That would be ridiculous. Anyone know where to buy them? Thanks for any help

What I want: Since I listen to a lot of techno and vocal trance and just vocal things in general (opera stuff, cover songs etc) I want something that has the clarity of the Shure 440s with as much possible bass. The shure440 have shown me things in songs I never knew existed and I want...

Hi all,   I would just like to start off by saying that I am in no way an experienced audiophile. I love music, and have enjoyed it through many ways such as IEM's and speakers. I have come to the decision however that I would like to have headphones rather than IEM's for me on the go. I...

I'm considering buying a new pair of headphones but am not sure what to go with. I'm aiming for $100-200. I want closed back but noise canceling isn't necessary.  I listen to mostly electronic music, especially dubstep so something with good powerful bass is best.  Durability has been a problem...

Hello everyone,   I am fairly new to head-fi and I did do some search around the forum trying to get the best closed headphone for under $150. I only have a pair of HD 203 that I brought from e-bay and honestly speaking my in-ear JVC HAFX1X xtreme-Xplosivs headphone sounds way better than...

So I bought the custom one pro brand new from some ebay seller for 145$ brand new (with free 2 day shipping). I think that was a good deal. From what I can tell a lot of people bought these and then subsequently wound up selling them or something. Nowadays I don't see many people talking...

I was also looking at the AKG Q701 Out of these, which are the most bass heavy and which are the best closed back headphones

This is what I'm looking for: -durable -emphasized bass (I'm a bass head) -closed back (I don't want too much sound to bleed out) -noise canceling and/or isolating (I'm not using these words interchangeably, I'm asking for either both or one or the other) So far I've looked at: -Beyerdynamic...
