    Best open cans for $225 US

    Hi, all. Interested in people's feedback on this thread. I listen to rock, country, bluegrass, edm, opera, and jazz--in roughly equivalent doses. I am not a basshead. I have several other cans, but none that fits in this precise niche. I appreciate the assistance very much!

    Philips X1 vs L1 vs Vmoda M100

    I've heard the UE 6000 headphones, how do they compare to the X1, L1 and M100? I prefer deep bass but the UE6000 sounded a bit harsh to me at times with an average soundstage (smaller than my dt770s). Would the Philips with their boosted bass and rolled off higher end be the solution to the...

    Thinksound Rain2 to pour in ears soon: Impressions and Discussions Thread

    Funny how things work out. Thinksound has been one of my favorite small earphone companies since they started putting out products about the time I became a member of the head-fi community. The company actually produced one of the best on-ear headphones I've ever heard, the On1 (which came out...

    Moving on from the Denon D1001

    Hello,   Back after a while on Head-Fi! My Denon D1001 is on its last legs and I'm looking for a replacement. I prefer listening straight from my iPhone 4S (which I believe sounds better than my uDac plugged into my Macbook Air). I just purchased the V-Moda M-80 but I'm not very happy with...

    Hello, once again, dear head-fi community ! This might have already been asked, with the risk of getting banned, I would have some questions regarding the fore-mentioned matter. I seriously didn't have the time to check through every recent thread to make sure it hasn't been requested yet...

    Basshead open-backed headphones?

    The LCD2/3 is out of my budget, unfortunately.   I find the bass on my HD650's a bit lacking, but people will probably tell me I'm stupid for saying that because apparently they are some of the most bass-heavy open-backed headphones you can get.   I was thinking about the Ultrasone HFI...

    Q701 or no?

    Hey guys, the Q701's are on sale right now for $150.. I already have the Fidelio X1s, Sennheiser Momentums, and the Shure SE535s. Should I buy them? I have a feeling they won't be much better than anything I already have but 1) they look cool and 2) it's such a good price.
