    Review by '1eye1derweasil' on item 'Monoprice MHP-839'

    I went straight out of the receiver with these and straight out of my clip+. A-B against my M50s.  These Isolate extremely well,better than the M50 IMO, have great bass, clear forward mids and detailed highs. The Treble is slightly recessed, but the headphones aren't dark, I actually found...

    Straight out of SANSA Clip+ Bass is accurate, punchy and deep, the mids are slightly recessed and the treble is very crisp. Clarity is up to Fischer standards, no veiled sound here.  Overall they sound very similar to the ATH M50, but with less recession and greater clarity (though less...

    Fischer Audio ToughStuff-9001

    The first member of the Fischer "tough stuff" line. An IEM designed with durability in mind, while still delivering quality sound.

    ^ Sounds like you are listening to a damaged pair - My drivers are perfectly stable. Also, bassy headphones aren't for everyone (as I pointed out). So here on Head-fi we tend to play nicer and not take away TOO heavily for something not being to our taste. also KSC75 and Porta's aren't for...

    Getting Started    Forewarning I'm a neutral fan and don't like colored or veiled sound, please take that into account. Also My ratings are based around the price - for the money these headphones are undeniably out of the ballpark.    The sources used for this review are my SLS audio...

    I think so - I certainly didn't lose any detail or clarity on weaker power sources. However they were slightly less adaptive to bassy music - but they still got the job done while sounding good :)

    Good neutral set. I play them out of a vintage Sony Receiver from the early 80's and it provides plenty of power to push these to their limits.  Most versatile set of cans I've owned, everything really sounds good with them. I would however not recommend them for Bassheads, they have the...

    Review: Fischer Audio FA-003 - a neutral champ!

    I've played these straight from my receiver before, and they still sound fantastic, much better than the m50, I'm a bit of a bass head as well and simply adjusting the eq +2-3 I hit my sweet spot without causing detriment elsewhere MUCH clearer mids than the m50, greater detail, and quite...

    you won't be disappointed by Beyerdynamic, the 990 is amazing. I'd also recommend the ATH-M50, probably best sounding bass can south of 300$

    At a low enough price these are worth grabbing (40$). At standard MSRP of 70$ they aren't.  Overall I'd compare them roughly to the sound quality of the Panasonic HTS600, just at nearly twice the price.

    Quote: not sure, but I'd suggest the PA2V2 really good little amp, and should make a bigger difference than the e5

    Maverick D1 - it doubles as your dac (which is a good investment)   also it has a tube pre-amp, so if you ever decide to get a dedicated tube amp, this can used    it retails at 200 even, great reviews, and should drive the 011 just fine

    REVIEW: Fischer Audio FA-011 - OFF THE DEEP END!!

    Quote: Headphones are about creating natural and clear sound, very few (even bass heavy cans) are going to create an "impact" because impact is not usually in the recording itself, but superficially added by the speaker system. Most speakers have a low frequency "hump" which creates that...

    REVIEW: Fischer Audio FA-011 - OFF THE DEEP END!!

    Quote: The D1 will work fine for both, better for the 003 (require less power)   I own both now, and have gotten a good feel for them each in their own right, I'd say the 003 is superior hands down, and is amazing for jazz   The 011 is good for Jazz...but the 003 is better :) I...
