would this act also like an amp? one of the images shows that it uses a TPA6130 (Texas Instruments from my google search)

Is the UE6000 in passive mode easy to drive (i.e. with a portable like an iPhone?)

I'm debating between the tbse1 and the dj200. afaik they will sound the same. the only thing different is the included iphone cable. is the cable well built? if i got the tbse1 i'd probably pick up a v-moda 1 button one or a 3 button one if i can still find one. price wise, it would work out to...

I listen to mostly indie / electronic rock, hip hop and podcasts.. not a basshead, but looking for something pleasant musically in multiple genres. Looking for a commute friendly over ear closed headphone. must-haves: detachable cable (to use with in-line iphone controls), good isolation, decent...

I see alot of love for the JVC HA-S500/400 as well. Do they wear wide on your head though? They look like fairly thick cans

Hi all, Looking to get a pair of new headphones for my gf for her birthday. Looking at these two portable closed-backs. They're both around the same price from my research.   She listens to all types of music (rock, hip-hop, acoustic), and imo would probably prefer a livlier headphone to a...
