Mine just arrived recently, and because they aren't many reviews, threads or actual photos of the new HD 598's, i decided i'll take a few especially for this community, in order to help the ones that might be interested in this nice pair of cans.   First the photos.       Now a short...

I'm a noob, so plz excuse the dumb question. I need advice on full-size headphones that are comfortable enough to sleep in, and can drown out external noise (but I must be able to hear the alarm or one that has that function built in - if that's even possible). I'm not really going to be...

I absolutely loved my Denon's   I am going to attempt a recable on them with information I found on this board.   In the mean time however, I am interested in finding some comparible headphones   Here are my needs:   Less than 150$ Does not require amplification Closed  ...

Hello,   So I've been doing extensive research and finally have narrowed down my choices to these headphones. In a nutshell I am looking for a pair of headphones that has good clarity, detail, soundstage and instrument separation. I liked the DJ100, but they hurt my ears as it clamped...

Hi, I hope this is the right place to post this :)   I'm trying to find a good headset to go with my new MixAmp 5.8 Wireless that I'll be using with Xbox 360. I bought both a Razer Caricharas and a Sennheiser HD555 to test from Amazon, but it seems (from reading throught these forums) that I...

I have never been too smart in the headphone arena but I am currently looking for headphones around the $100-200, I am a college student so I need to have something that can block out surrounding noises when I am using them, I had a pair of Bose Ae2's but somehow they got stolen and there are...

I've been using default iPod earphones for listening to my iPod and computer for a while now, and I'd like to buy real headphones because they're falling apart and I'm tired of the "earbud" design. I'd like to spend no more than $100 dollars (maybe $120 max), and a headphone amp is out of the...

Hey everyone,   I have read many of the reviews and posts about the headphones i am among to choose from.   the thing is, there is no place i could in fact try them out (i'm in greece), in terms of sound and comfort (fit) so i would like to ask for the help of those who owned or tried...

Hello, I decided to start this thread because I dont know what to buy I listen to indie rock and want some closed circumaural headphones for under 100 dollars. I have made a few posts and everyone has a different opinion so please post which cans should I buy and Why I should buy them Thanks...

 So I'm new here i am looking for some good headphones i've been looking at the Shure SRH440's, the  Sennheiser HD448's and the Audio Technica ATH-M50. I wanted to know if these are any good. I will be using my laptop and my Ipod touch. Are there any other headphones i should look at my price...

Are there any reccomendations for headphones which emphasize the mid range and roll off the highs and bass?

Hey guys, so I'm looking to get my first pair of full-size headphones. I've been using PX-100s mainly, and I want something a little better. My budget's around $100, I'd really prefer not going over.   I mainly listen to alternative/indie music, as well as some rock/classic rock, progressive...

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...

Hey everybody,   So I have been researching constantly on what headphones to purchase and figured I should start a thread for some help. I listen to a LOT of classic rock and have been playing guitar for a while. I'm looking for something that can hold its own in the bass realm but I dont...

The following are the only headphones that I can buy, its impossible for me to buy any other which one should I choose. Also note I'm looking for good bass response, with a well balanced sounds, good mids and highs that don't clip too much when volume is set to loud. The head phones I can buy...

I've been doing quite a bit of homework and since I'm not at all an audiophile (I think my Skullcandy Smokin' Buds sound great for $30; I feel so ashamed at what I paid for them) I'm having some difficulty making a decision.   I am trying to move to some nice, reasonably portable, and...

Dear Head Fi, I bent the plug on my HD 448's and am wondering first how do i pull off the main cord and where can I buy a replacement cable.  I am a beginner so thats why such "nooby" questions.    Thanks A Bunch

Hi, I'm new here and I'm a noob. I'm going to buy the first pair of high-quality headphones. Most of the time, I listen to music at my campus, library and home. I listen to Pop, Slow Rock, Rap, Hip Hop, R&B and Electronic (Taio Cruz and Lady Gaga stuffs). I'm considering PX100. Do you have any...

Last week I broke the headphones I was using (sennheiser omx 60), and while looking at a local store for a replacement pair, I heard a seller praising AKG phones (until then totally unknown to me). I don't usually listen much to sellers, but I started paying attention to this one as he was...

So, I've began to consider exploring the world of high-quality audio equipment (i.e. becoming an audiophile) so I'm considering buying either Sennheiser HD555 or HD448. I was initially set on buying some Grado SR80s, but decided that comfort was slightly more important and that the difference...
