Will be used mostly for movies, plugged into my receiver's headphone jack. I prefer on ear, as long as they are lightweight and comfy on the ears. Over the ear are fine too, but if the cups are not deep and large enough, and touch my ears, I hate that. Thanks.

Does anyone know the output impedance of the 2nd Gen Ipod Nano? I am looking to get a friend the HD681 headphones but their impedance is a mere 32 ohms which means that if the 2nd gen nano has a high output impedance, and I expect it does, then the audio will be affected. I've tried searching...

I'd like to get your info on this, about full sized, circumaural "open" or "semi- open" cans that you've actually tried or own. I'm talking about the ear opening size and depth. I have average size ears, but I hate when the driver or pads touch my ears. I just received the Panasonic HTF600 a...

I have a pair of Superlux HD681 headphones and I was comparing them with my cheapo sony in ear earphones and I found them to be a bit quieter than the Sony in ear buds. Are full sized headphones generally quieter? Or can they also be as loud as in ear earphones?

I'm looking to get the ATH-M50's because I keep hearing so many good things about them from around the forums, but I can't find any information on whether they'd be able to perform well at the gym. My main concern is that non-durable headphones can't put up with that kind of "abuse".   I had...

Hey everyone,   I am a new audiophile and am new to this site. I'm looking for a good pair of headphones, preferably full bass cups, for under $50. I've looked at the Superlux HD668B but with shipping it was a little over my price range. Here are some I've also looked at:   Superlux...

I listen to many electronic genres such as dubstep, and i...

Hi,   For the last few days I have been struggling with how good and how poor headphones sound.   I have been listening to a variety of music with a small variety of headphones with MSRP of (approx) less than $180.   Specifically (in alphabetical order), I have been listening to . . .  ...

I've just noticed that an online retailer from my country has brought a lot of Superlux models. Up until now I've heard a lot of good things about the 681 and 668b's. Which one of those in the list should I choose? I value comfort and noise isolation above all and I think I would prefer a more...

I live in China and shop on TaoBao. Yesterday I sent a personal message to every single seller of the Superlux 681, 30+ vendors in total. The original Red Ring 681 (null) has been discontinued since at least early 2013, perhaps longer. There are no sellers of this hp on TaoBao. I can purchase...

Was checking out equipment on L&M and came across these Presonus HD7 headphones for $58.99 CAD. Did a bit of research on them and in the comments on this youtube video a person says they are same headphone as Superlux 681B. Is that correct?   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xBVBlKFYIM   "...

Just curious how these 3 compare. 3 open, $50 or less headphones that seem to dominate the sub-$100 category (if open is okay for you, plenty of good closed ones out there I'm not going into, but sound leakage is fine with me). The Superluxes are usually around $30-40, so even cheaper...

Especially I would be interested in akg701 or HD800, or some other which have spectacular scene   What I mean is:  headphones play in you head, and the (general) soundstage seem to be limited to your skull (bone structure), with open headphones reaching  few (3-5) centemeters out of the...
