I bought the m-50s two years ago for $130. They have been good headphones albeit lacking some clarity and punch. Two years ago, the fidelios were $300. Now the fidelios are $125, making me think they are a steal at this price range. I am asking if the fidelio l1 is an upgrade over the m-50 in...

  Hello Everybody,   What do you think about this new Philips headphone presented at the IFA 2011?         http://www.ifa.philips.com/pressreleases/Philips_Fidelio_Headphones/index.html

Apologies if this has already been posted, however Philips are on the verge of releasing a high end on the go can and I've been keeping my eyes peeled having found a few vids on YouTube outlining it's intriguing features  ...

Hello,   I was looking for a case for my headphones and saw that Sennheiser have their own carrying case. Does anybody have anything to say about this case or should I look for something else?   Case...

When are these headphones going to be released? Specifically on Amazon. I can buy them from The Apple Store online right now, but it's full retail price. Sometimes Amazon gives some kind of a discount on their items. 

Introduction: As a nearly 10 year member of Head-fi.org, this is my first review of any kind. As such I feel an introduction is due. I am 30 years of age (as of March 20th), a luthier of violins (restoration, adjustment, repair) for 12 years, apprenticed, violist for 21 years (user name is...

Which one is better for all music types? Has someone done a comparison? If not, how do they compare?

I will be using these with a Dacmagic XS. Which would be better? I listen to all types of music, from Disclosure to Wilco to Sixpence None The Richer.

        12hz -25khz 105db 200mW 26ohm   The Fidelio L1 by Philips is without question my new favorite headphone of all time.  I feel safe regarding it as the best portable-ish headphone ever made, however I am on the fence about placing it into the world of portables, it might...

So I've decided to buy a pair of Philips Fidelio L1s but I can't seem to figure out how.  Does anyone know a online store that sells them?  I live in Boston, MA, USA btw if anyone wants to reccommend a local store.  Thanks :)

So for some reason I’ve been on a little quest to find the best headphones to plug straight into to an iType device for mobile use. So considering those given parameters, this inherently rules out a lot of full sized headphones right off. Can’t be too big. It has to be efficient. Can’t be too...

   Hello. Recently i got hooked to quality audio (music). Currently i use Sennheiser HD205II. I don't have much experience with headphones so i won't rate these ones but they sound good enough for first good headphones and if it wasn't for the unbearable clamping force i could recommend them for...

Out of the 3, i only tried the 1r's and i can say that it's bass is as flat as i can go without being unsatisfied with the headphones. I picked these three because of the looks (yeah i know its a bad thing but being a teenager in NYC is very tough) since i get looks going outside with my sony...

Edited 2/16   The Fidelio L1 is a overly warm sounding headphone. Definitely boosted sub-bass, that's really present but not that clear, then the mid-bass is there but lacks punch next to the bigger sub-bass. The midrange is quite fine until you reach the 2kHz region when things start too mess...

Hello guys,   I'm looking for some headphones (my first full-size). The choice is between the Philips Fidelio L1 AKG K550 Sennheiser Momentum   I can all get them for the same price (€160,-), so which one should I take? Sound sig I'm looking for is probably a bit on the warmish...

Dear all, I want to present to you a great all-rounder - the Philips Fidelio L1: lively, clear and well-balanced with a warm tilt. Yes, you read correctly. A Philips - the Dutch company that buries you with LED lamp search results when you ask Google. A brand that never was mentioned...

GOOD AFTERNOON FRIENDS OF HEAD FI   A month ago, I stole my microphone cable and remote control of my fidelio l1, any of you know where I could get this cable? I have tried to communicate with people of phillips but not give me no reason, and I come to you all, if decasualidad know where I...

Hey Head-Fi'ers You see, I recently bought some Sony MDR 1R's that sound pretty darn good. If I had any complaints, they would be with the soundstage and comfort but overall they're some pretty good cans. Now I'm looking for something to complement them, so I've found some open cans that should...

So, I've been waiting for these the headphones to leave the apple store for 2 months now. I had read that they were suppose to be release to the market and not be hoarded by the apple store sometime in mid March and well as we can all see, it's early April and Apple is still the only place you...

I am looking for a headphones that are bassy and yes i did visit the bass head club already and yes I have already read tons of forums on headfi, visited inner fidelity, read a gazillion reviews on many many numerous websites, but I really need an answer and please be helpful thanks! I have a...

Just reading the L1 impressions thread and folks there seemed to claiming it is basically equivalent to a closed headphone in terms of of sound leakage out. I am dubious of this based on previous experience with semi-open phones. So now that people have had them for a while and the initial...

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.

Hello, I am trying to find a good pair of earphones for my dad that sound good, are comfortable and durable. He has gone through 2 sets of noise canceling Bose and liked them but I'd like to find a higher bang for the buck set that he can use for listening to music on his iPhone (mostly...

Hi all, first post here. I was wondering if any of you guys might be able to recommend me a great pair of over the ear headphones, looking for noise isolation and great sound quality, i listen to a variety of music but mainly hip hop and trance. I'd like something around the 150-200 price range...
