I've been researching around for an unexpensive (below 500$) but good amplifier that could work as well with my low-impedance T5ps and my HD650s, which I use less frequently. Main music is classical music. I looked into Woo's Wa3 but it seems it only works to its fullest with high impedance...

    Long thread title, longer review. I told myself to keep things under 1000 words, but then a new criterion presents itself every time I think I'm done. Ho hum.   The long short: This is a combo sold by Jaben Japan. It includes:   1. Otomatsu BDR-HPA02 x1 2. Your choice of a balanced...

I am looking for the best portable amp/DAC combo and have narrowed it down to the ALO International and the Ray Samuels Intruder.    I think I will use Beyerdynamic t5p with the new protable amp dac.    Does anyone have any experience comparing the two?    Are there any other top of the...

Having come from a pair of Unique Melody modded TF10x6 (TripleFi 10 + 3 drivers per side) to a pair of HE-400's it's got me wondering...are there any full-sized cans that can match the audio quality of IEM's?    I'm relatively new to the high-end IEM game having only owned the UE 900's and the...

What are the pros and cons? Maybe the mdr?

This is a difficult question...   Head-fi, which pair of headphones (of the ones you currently own) do you keep if you only get one, and WHY?

I haven't found any threads specifically discussing this comparison.  I'm interested in direct comparisons of these 4 headphones.  I've seen quite a few between various parings, but I'm curious about the whole lot.  I currently have the P7's and I've had them for about 1 week.  So far I love...

I currently use a HeadRoom Ultra Dekstop Amp from my laptop out to my Beyer T1's and also out to my Paradigm MilleniaOne CT desktop speakers.  I normally listen to the speakers but sometimes enjoy really hearing the music with the headphones on.  The HeadRoom has a front switch that lets me...

How does it rank compared so the mdr1 momentums and the p5's?   Any good

I like my D5000 as being the least "U-shape" model of D2000/D5000/D7000 series. Recently I have a plan to update a top-class close-back pair. I tried TH900 and didn't like its "U-shape" sound. I heard T5P has a balanced sound character with a little shy bass performance. I want to know how weak...

Hi   Bought T5P a year ago. And I like them but the thing is - cable sucks! And I'm not talking about SQ. It just breaks after 2 months of usage. And after sending headphones back 2 times already and seeing the cable break again I decided to not bother anymore and stick to my HD25s and Allan &...

I am looking at the headphones from the poll below and I know a little about them and tested some of them out very very briefly. What I am looking for is to pick one headphone from the list that is best. To me the best headphone would be one that is very detailed and can work well with any...

Waiting for kind instruction

I currently have a pair of heavily modded ath-ad700's with a creative recon3d fatil1ty sound card.   I am buying a set of beyerdynamic t5p's and the burson audio ha-160DS amplifier.   I will be giving my girlfriend my old set.   How much of a difference will i notice?   What...

I have recently bought a pair of t5p and have noticed that it comes with a aluminium transport case instead of the small portable felt carry case. While I do prefer the aluminium case that I have, I've also noticed that mine has a straight jack as opposed to a right angled headphone jack that...

Hey all, I recently (about a month ago) purchased a pair of Beyerdynamic T5P headphones, and am now posting a review after listening to them 5-6 hours daily. Prior to purchase, I was deciding about whether to go with these or the Signature Pros by Ultrasone. I went with the T5P's because I saw...

Have had the T5p for some time and always loved the sound and clarity.  Ordered the T1 to go with my new WA7 (if it ever gets here) and so in the meantime I been comparing the T1 and T5p on the same amp, a HeadRoom Ultra Desktop Amp, a very clean and strong solid state amp.  T1 using the medium...

Just replaced my t5p's pads with new DT770 pads. It's really cool - velour is much more comfortable than the stock leather or leather-like cushions. The headphones are also recabled now with an Oyaide interconnect cable (HWS-22W). Problem is that it's too short and too damn heavy...

I was walking on Market Street today, the main street in San Francisco, and saw a headphone vendor trying to sell 'Fusion' headphones on the corner of Market and Montgomery. They're essentially mock beats...they look exactly like Beats without the logo. I already had my Beyerdynamic T5P on my...

What´s the difference between these two (mainly soundwise)? They have the same price. And how do you feel about them, any good? Enough bass? Harsh highs?

Title Says everything. every genre in music expect metal. I'm also open to suggestion of another 800-1200$ closed cans for hi-fi portable use.(not Denon).     Thank you very much

Title says everything. Is it a good combo?   thank you very much.

I've been lurking around here for a long time and gone through countless of threads on the archives for the past few weeks. After a decade long of constant upgrades, I have finally arrived at a decent loudspeaker-based system at home which I can live with for a long time. I've decided to call it...

The T5p is designed to sound great with iPhones and iPods without the use of any external amps. Although the T5p will produce a higher level of playback with a headphone amp, will the T5p sound much better off a powered headphone amp or a portable unit?   If going with portable, the Graham...

I have received the opportunity to purchase one of the two headphones. I was wondering if anyone has listened to both of these headphones and could tell me which one is the king of the portable headphone market. I can buy the ESW10JPN for approximately $500 dollars and the T5P for about $750, so...
