    Sony h.ear on MDR-100AAP - $199 'Hi-Res Audio' Over-Ear Headphones

    I just got these for 120 USD in red. They are pretty good looking and extremely light. I connected them to my FiiO E10 and gosh...they sound horrid. I will let them burn in for a while before coming back but really...   I wanted them as back-up on the go full sized headphones, but still, those...

    Android phones and USB DACs

    I just got a FiiO Q1...gosh, finally! It works like a charm. My LG G4 has horrid sound hardware and now it actually sounds somewhat decent with wired headphones. This little guy is amazing. For less than 70 USD you get a portable USB DAC/AMP that works with Android phones, has decent SQ, AWESOME...

    HD598 VS HD650 soundstage

    I'd say it depends on what type of videogames you like. RPGs with good music for instance would benefit from the HD598, while shooters and more action based games would benefit from the impact of the ortho's. The HD650 are good, but IMO the HD600 sound better overall (cleaner and more accurate)...

    Looking for some nice headphones under €200, sennheiser HD 598 vs audio technica ATH-M50

    The bass in the HD598 is solid and pretty strong for an open-back headphone, but still it can't compete with lots closed backs in the quantity department. Still it is warm and movies do sound great with them, specially considering they have such a huge soundstage.

    Sennheiser Amperior Impressions Thread

    Hey guys, I have a question about the earpads. I absolutely love my Amperiors and use them outside and in the office, so basically most of the day. I find the ear cushions really comfortable but as I use them so much I was wondering about how long will they last and for how much can I get...

    WORST headphone you ever heard?

    Quote:   They issue is that frequent travellers who take international flights will need to have their ears plugged sometimes for more than 13 hours straight. NC full-zised headphones are really more comfortable to really long journeys, but for short commutes I see no benefit whatsoever...

    Sennheiser Amperior Impressions Thread

    I just got myself a new pair of blue a Amperiors...and I'm surprised. They are the best on ears I've ever heard! I was considering the hd-25 II but since the Amperiors had this crazy price drop after being discontinued I decided the extra cash was really worth it considering the lower impedance...

    Sennheiser HD 598 Impressions Thread

    Thanks for taking the chance! Please post your impressions. I tried to carve a 2.5 mm into the HD 598's input and the results were horrible :(

    WORST headphone you ever heard?

    I have a new ones. My friend asked me to fix them for him. They are a very old pair of on ear headphones: Midland Deluxe. They really sound really bad, but retain their cool retro look.

    PRESS RELEASE: Sennheiser announces the MOMENTUM On-Ear headphone

    Was the amperior really dropped?! That explains why in Mexico the amperior is priced only a few dollars more than the HD-25. I think it is time to get the lasts while they last!

    Any anime series that you've been enjoying?

    Yes, of course the FPS are dropped, specially in the next episodes that have no actual action scenes; I think that's good so by the time we get to the awesome climax of this arc they go all out with the money. But still, even if the animation quality dropped, the characters are still shaded way...

    Any anime series that you've been enjoying?

    Quote:   This show is so well made that the characters in the background are drawn and shaded as detailed as the ones in the front. It really is a great anime.

    PRESS RELEASE: Sennheiser announces the MOMENTUM On-Ear headphone

    They look stunning. I want a pair of high-end on ears and was pretty sure I'd get the amperior, but these might be a good option too (although I've heard of build quality issues with the momentum).
