They're not really broken, but the volume control has a scratchy noise whenever it's turned, and also one side is always quieter than the other. Any way to fix this? Unfortunately, I cannot find my proof of purchase, so it's not available for warranty. 

Hello guys. As you may notice i'm new around here, and i'm also new to the audiophile world. Now i just love music, can't live without her mainly Rock, Psy Rock, Progressive, Blues, but i'm open to mostly everything out there except maybe hip hop, so the extra bass issue just don't touches me...

Hey everyone, I'm looking to pick up some headphones for my girlfriend as a gift. She's no audiophile (knows pretty much nothing about it), but I have started replacing her music collection with higher quality copies, and I'd like to introduce her to the world of higher-quality sound. She's used...

Hello, I'm a first poster on Head-Fi, but I've read up quite a bit in my quest for my ideal portable headphone (ljokerl's portable headphone shootout was invaluable in my search).   For starters, I currently have bargain-bin headphones scooped up for $10-15 each at Marshalls or TJMaxx...

Because the Porta Pros have one dang it.   I am getting to where I almost can't listen to another pair. When I first got these, I wasn't too impressed with the sound. But after a year and even a plug being replaced, I've warmed up to the sound so much. Such a natural, detailed, and airy...

I badly need a better pair of headphones.  I currently use Bose IE2's, and while I think they sound great, they constantly fall out of my ear whenever I do any athletic activity.  I really only wear them when I'm running or at the gym, and I have to constantly adjust them or put them back in my...

So i took my Senn Px200-II's earpads, and removed the cloth bit inside, using scissors, in the hopes that it's clarity will improve. Now, it sounds a bit clearer and stuff, but i'm now worried that dust and other materials can now get into bits of the driver, and damage it. Will this happen...

what do the experts think...which one is better? in terms of comfort and sound quality? please recommend

Im new to this audio thing,and im having a hard time deciding what headphone is best. Im torn between the Sennheiser HD 280 pro,HD 555,PX 200 II,and the Grado Prestige series SR80i. I usually listen to rock.classic and hard,and 1970's/80's metal. Which one would be best given my situation...

I have both...needless to say. Anyway, I had the original PX 200s first. Then I ended up getting the 200 iis in Poland. I came across a shop dedicated to selling nothing but headphones in the town of Katowice. They had the 200 iis, so I got them.    I've been doing some side by side...

I am interested in purchasing some portable H.P for use when running around town.   Narrowed them down to these 4   Senn PX 200II AKG K430 Beyerdynamic DTX300P Audio Technica ES7   From what I read on head-fi the K430s seem to have a durability issue with paint flacking off...

Hey everyone. I'm sure you get a lot folk like me breezing through here, so I'll try to keep it brief!   After almost a year of use, my Koss KSC-75s (stock) have finally perished. Now I'm in the market for some new budget 'phones, but would much prefer some decent on/overs ears as I can't...

Hello everyone. Newbie so kindly bear with me.  :)   understand CX 980 and PX 200-II are totally different types, but still hope you would share your opinions and experiences. which is better if i mainly listen to pop and rock? Are headphones always better then in-ears? or are in-ears at a...

Hi there! So I have been looking for new headphones for about a month or a month plus and I keep coming back to nothing... SO I came across this website a couple of weeks ago and realized I should research, but there isn't something here that helps me to the point of getting the right headphones...

Hi I'm really struggling for new headphones that aren't more than £60, that are good for all kinds of music, decent bass, and block out sound well. Also, i plan to use these mainly to travel and in the streets so basically outside the house.     Sennheiser HD 205-II   Sennheiser HD 202...

    Hey guys! Okay so. Basically, i have no idea of anything about headphones and stuff, but i've been wanting to change my Sennheiser PX 200-ii for awhile now. I am looking around and i've always wanted Studio beats for awhile now... but after reading reviews on the net it has said to be easily...

Hi!   I have been searching around these forums for a while, and although there's a few threads about closed back phones it normally comes down to HD25s or Beyer DT1350. I used to have HD25s, and they were GREAT headphones, but they weren't VERY portable, and they are also very expensive...

I am interested in some headphones that are Portable (for school and for my home computer) Now certain headphones work better with a certain Type of music. With that said I will be listening To primarly hip hop, rap, and rock. I want something Stylish and not to large, hence portable. Now I...

I am very interested in the PX100's but they leak a bit at high volume from what I have seen. I do not want in ear headphones because they are uncomfortable after a while, and I'd like to stay away from over ear headphones unless they are very portable and comfy. Anything close to the PX100's in...

In my many years of HiFi System, I never venture into portable system like recently. I guess HiFi system and 2 years old kid in the house doen't mix well. Although I spend most of my time with system, I always want a set of Grado. Mostly the look and I think I will also enjoy it's sound since I...

hi everyone,   purchased my beyers so time ago and am mightily pleased with then when listening to aphex twin and other bass heavy electronic music. but from time to time i enjoy listening to a bit of classical music or vocally prominent music as well, and i feel like i'm not getting...

Headphones Under $100   I've been looking around for quite some time for a good pair of headphones that is somewhat portable.   I ended up thinking on buying a Sennheiser PX 200-II, but then I started to think otherwise. I was starting to lean over on Superlux HD681 or the Samson SR850...
