I have always used earphones, but want to give headphones a try. I currently have Atrio MG5's with MG7 drivers. They have served me for only 4 months and they just don't cut it. Good deep bass and mids but the highs are too high. I still fringe at every cymbal hit. The overall sound quality...

I'm looking for a fun, comfortable, closed back full sized headphone that do not need an amp. Gonna be using them for rock and metal. Detachable cable would be nice. I prefer quality over quantity of bass. I'm not a basshead but I do like a warmer type of headphone. Good build quality too. I...

Hey guys I'm new to this site and have little experience in quality headphones but am wanting to change that.

On comfort and sound quality, mostly focused on bass out of the 2, which has more?

I just bought a pair of these from a Head-Fier and other than a slightly forward midrange, I think they were a good purchase . . . for now. My question is on the retaining ring that holds the ear cup: one of the cups is very loose so that it just drops to a horizontal position when holding the...

Looking for some help from the experts here -- I think I have narrowed it down to a couple of options, but I am not sure that there is one headphone that can do all I want it to.  Actually, I am sure there isn't, but I am not sure which one I should start with.   My listening habbits...

Hey again Head-Fiers,   I am looking for a portable on-ear or over-ear headphone that will be perfect for being on a train, being in a coffee shop, etc.  Basically light commuting.  So here are the factors that matter to me: portability, actually not complete isolation (I need to hear what's...

Hi everyone ,  Total newbie here of course.   Anyways-Recently after much research and thought, I had pretty much made up my mind that I was going to purchase a pair of Bose AE 2 headphones. My reasoning was that I know that they aren't considered the best headphone for the money but they...

I listened to these today at Best Buy through my S:Flo2, and was blown away. Bass was up there with my XB500's, but cleaner. There is only one problem. In order to not hear what I can only describe as Karaoke mode (faint sounds, voices muted), I had to hold in the center button permanently on...

Trying to make a decision between the Phiaton Moderna MS400 and the Audio Technica ATH-M50S.  Any opinions?  Also are the ATH-M50S's the update to the ATH-M50's or are they the same?  Thanks all.   **Updated to recognize the difference in the M50's and M50S's is the coiled and straight...

  How hip are headphones? Well, in an unusual turn, it seems to me that a major fashion house may have been inspired by a very hip headphone house. ChipChick also caught news of Prada's new headphones ($595) at Esquire, and stated that it looked a lot like the Bose OE2. I think Prada's piece...

Hello Everyone,   I am pretty new to the higher end headphones. I was wondering are there any high end offerings that offer the style of Beats, but a lot better SQ?   Thank you! Alan

Been looking for some good basshead cans...my two priorities are overall clarity of sound and depth of bass. I'm sick of being suggested phones that have huge mid-bass; I love bass but I have no need whatsoever for excessive bloatedness or darkness or warmth. I want my music to sound clear and...
