Hello people,   I have this very strange issue. My headphones (Sennheiser HD418) are working almost perfectly but there is one problem. If I turn the balance to the the left, the headphones only display the sound on the left. But when I turn the balance to the right, there is still some...

Hi everyone,   I have a pair of HD418s that I am contemplating to mod. My first question is, is there a way to remove the back of the cups (the part with the flames) to make it an "open" headphone? I partly want to do this for cosmetic reasons, but I have no experience with modding...

Here is my latest little project :D     These Headphones started life as a birthday present that I gave to my younger brother years ago. He has really enjoyed them but has given them a hard life with me having to replace the jack multiple times.   I finally decided that the cable...

     Hi guys! I'm just a 18 year old newbie who started to have interest in headphones. These things are just a stairway to eargasms. Let's start with some background information about me. Here are all the products I had; i started with the cresyn CS-HP 500, then the Sennheiser hd202, then I...

Hi everyone   I actually have been lurking around this site for a while now, and recently have decided to purchase new headphones, and figure this would be the perfect place to ask.  I usually listen to music with cheap ear buds and decided that its time for a change.  The only headphones...

Hello! Sorry for the generic "hurr durr what should I get" thread, but everyone has different needs... Unfortunately. Anyway, I've been trying to find new in ear headphones, as my on ears (sennheiser 418's are too big to be convenient for taking around the place were there are limited storage...

I've noticed a couple of people wanting to buy the HD418/428/438/448 these past few weeks, and after digging through several threads I've come to the conclusion that a lot of HD448 buyers were disappointed with the depressing (lol) amount of bass in their headphones.   So why did I create...

So there's really not a whole lot been said about these headphones. They're sold at my Local Best-Buy and Future shop for $79.00, $53 online but apparently were about $135.00 when released retail.  I'm aware that Audio-Technica tends to boost their headphones with overpricing... And from...

We've all been to some of our favorite companies' websites, right? Well, when I started on Head-Fi the first thing I wanted to pick up was a Koss Porta Pro, so as you can imagine I visited their website often. And while I went to the Product Select button, I felt like I was in the Matrix. The...

Hi guys,   First time posting here! I've been reading these forums for some time now, so I've decided to do my own post regarding my doubts about the choice of my new headphones.   My old Headset (Sennheiser PC151) messed up, and now I've got a credit note to spend the old value of them...

So i only started using reasonably good headphones within the last year, so im still rather inexperienced. At the moment i use Sennheiser HD 238 Precision cans for out and about and around campus. The problem is they leak noise a lot being open and supra-aural and all and i think its time to get...

Hi, I've been searching for a little while now for my first half decent pair of headphones. The hd 418's seem like they would be good for me since I'm looking for a pair for an ipod around $100 with fairly strong bass. I noticed though that they are flashier than other sennheisers, and that...

Hello, this is my first post so I will straight up apolagise if I haven't done something right. I currently have some <£30/<$35 on ear headphones which I'd like to uprade, except when I plug them straight into my iPod the sound is good but not great (reason for uprade), yet when I dock my iPod...

In a couple of weeks or so I'll be buying a new pair of headphones, and I've been looking through a mass of sites for which ones I should get. As of right now, I'm pretty much set on the Senn HD418 or possibly one of the others from the 4*8 series. Question is, rather obviously, which ones...

I took my new MDR-V6's for a walk today...    The slightest breeze sounds like there's a tornado around my head.  Crap.   My old HD-418 don't isolate nearly as well as the Sony's, but they never gave me any problem on a windy day...   What other headphones are notoriously bad for...

Sennheiser announced yet another line of headphones, the HD4*8 series. The company claims that the new line is optimized for use with both portable devices and home systems, while offering some interesting designs. The HD438 and 448 are said to be more balanced and detailed, while the lower-end...
