Hi, I'm in the market for some headphones..hope I've come to the right place ;). My needs.. 1. Want to use mostly at home with my yamaha motif es keyboard. 2. Will take with me to gigs to practice and warm up before a gig. 3. May use them live if I can't hear myself. I don't want a...

Hi head-fiers. I am in a search for crisp sounding headphones with a brutal soundstage. ATH M50 vs Somic Efi-82 Mt vs Superlux HD-681EVO vs Sony Mdr-1r are some of the models I've been considering. Can you help me which one to choose or propose another model ?

Can anyone compare to something like the XBA-3? Does it have bigger soundstage and bass than the 3's? I have the XBA-3's and the only reason I would consider these is for more bass and a bigger soundstage, considering its a full size it "should" right?

I have done some digging and researching for some closed portable headphones in the $200-$250 range for listening to metal. I spend a lot of time in the library, so I need something I can wear for hours at a time with good isolation. I came up with these three: V-Moda M-100 Beyerdynamic Custom...

Hi!!   I have a Beyer DT770 32ohm limited edition pair and now looking for a more energetic, forward sounding set to enjoy those moods and genres. My usage will be with my iPhone 5, but if an amp will significantly help, may consider (perhaps the FiiO E12?) It is the carrying of multiple...

Budget - ~$300 Source - Macbook, iPod (mainly), iPad Isolation - I do travel quite a bit and spend time in places like my college library Preferred Type of Headphone - Big dude, looking for something comfortable in an over ear type of headphone. Preferred Tonality - I like my bass...

After hours of research, I just purchased Sennheisers hd 25-1 ii. They came today and i quickly tried them out. Not what I was expecting. I read that they were a little bass heavy but I didnt let it bother me too much. However I felt that these cans dont have enough clarity for me- It seems as...

Hi Head-Fiers,   I’m in a dilemma with my purchase for an all-around full-size headphone. I’m currently looking at the following (listed by preference so far), but I’d like to hear about what others (closed or open) I should consider or what you think I should go with? I’d like to stay under...

Well Its been a while, and the upgrade bug has hit me. I have an IPOD touch 3rd gen with a Sendstation dock and PA2V2 amp with the Beyer DT235. I like the sound, but I want more. Now my living situation is such that I just can’t audition cans unless I travel out of the country, which is rare...

Hey, guys so I was looking for new closed headphones in the 350 or lower price range. And there's a looooot to choose from. So I've decided to make a poll, where you can vote for your favourite headset to help me choose :3   Now if you vote it would be awesome if you leave a comment stating...

Hello,   I'm looking for a pretty decent jack of all trades to use both at home and on the go.  I mostly listen to IDM and ambient but also various electronic, indie, hip-hop, classical and more.  I would ideally like to spend less than $300 but my budget is flexible.  It's important that...

this is my first post here. Been poking around the forums for quite a while though. I'm looking to get me some headphones that I can take on the go, usually listening to them walking around campus. I was initially set on the audio technica pro700mk2's Because of my current headphones quality and...

As stated in the title, I want a closed set specifically for listening to metal. I have a budget of around 300 dollars. I need a set that doesn't require an amp, and is comfortable. I'll be using them a lot, so comfort is a big issue.

a pair of Sony MDR-1R, I hope I made a good choice! My current headphones are the Beats by Dre Solo HD, the after they left Monster headphones. I got a great deal from Sony.com used the college discount took the price from 299.99 down to 269.99 and opened a Sony Capital One card, and if you make...

And with more and deeper bass and subbass?

If you would please. First let me say that I have hours logged in researching candidates. Reading reviews, specs, forum posts, etc. every time I think I have a winner picked, I come across some tidbit of data the steers me in another direction. I don't have the option to listen to each and every...

Hello my friend I have mh1c. i love that but in ear headphones dont fit my ear.   i listen metal and rock even classic. so i want to buy a headphone over-ear for comfort. i will use in home, bus, walk etc.( listening with over ear when walking may be weird but i have no choice )   End of my...

first of all,i need fellow head-fiers to give your advice.ok,so the question is;is anyone here ever listened both of the mdr 1r and the ex1k?because I want to buy the mdr1r soon.I already have the mdr1k but i spoiled (the dynamic is gone and sound doesn't fun anymore) it by doing something...

  hello guys，I want to know which one is more comfortable(Im wearing a glasses).  As a foreigner，I wish you can understand what Im talking about..（¯﹃¯） Anyway，if you have these earphones，please give me some suggestion. THANK YOU！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！

I believe that comfort when using headphones depends to each person's head size/shape,ear size shape etc.   For example,I see too many comments about the "supreme" comfort of the Sony MDR 1R. I have the Sony's and I also own the shure srh840.It may sound strange,but I find the shures to be...

First let me say, I really would appreciate it if everyone would refrain from any unnecessary Bose bashing.  If you haven't THOROUGHLY listened to the QC15s and atleast one of the other candidates, please keep your opinions to yourself.  I'm looking for experienced, constructive opinions only...

Hello everyone, I'm new here to Head Fi and the audiophile world in general. :) Lately I've been sick of the bad quality of my Apple earbuds so for a late Christmas present I'm deciding to spoil myself with some good cans.    My budget is $200-300, the most I will go for is $400 but no...

So I've been wanting a nice pair of headphones for a while now. I avoided getting beats for a while and I'm glad I did after seeing all the reviews and all the other types of headphones. However, now I can't decide which ones to get because I want the best ones for the amount of money I'm...

Hi there, As the title suggests, i have been a lurker for a while and am hoping to learn more about sound. I have had a pair of klipsh image one for the longest time and am hoping to find a new pair and learn somethings along the way Notes: I listen to lots of emotional music ,classical ,and...
