I am definitely not a basshead by any means, more of a treble head if anything. This coming from owning the V Moda Crossfade LPs.    I have looked into the DT990, and frankly they seem to be very harsh and need a decent amp to tame them at all. I found a $175 pair of Denon AH-D600s, so I...

The Denons look really good. Any thoughts on a closed vs. open back? Those don't seem portable at all, so why are they closed?

Looking for around $200 or less total. Going to be home listening, most likely out of my PC. Electronic being mostly electro, glitch hop and dubstep. Suggestions? Thanks guys

I think I read somewhere that a Beyer DT880 with just a Fiio11 and an iPod sounds decent. But yeah, I'll definitely start a thread on that forum, and look into the HD 598. Thanks for the help guys!

So your opinion is either spend ~$200 for an amp or it's not even worth buying? Sheesh, I might just get the Beyer DT880 and a cheaper amp for that much.    Also, you were talking about the Q701, not the K702.   Anyone else want to chime in?

I plan on getting a pair of these cans in the next couple of months. I know that they need an amp/DAC to perform well, and I just wanted to see my option. My first choice would be a Schiit Modi/Magni combo, but honestly that costs more than I would like. Would it even be worth it to just buy a...

Ok, DT880 is sounding like a really good option at this point. These definitely benefit from an amp?

I have recently come into some cash and decided to invest more into my sound. I mostly listen to alternative rock, folk, EDM and classical, so I would like a headphone that can cover all of these ranges if possible. I really like headphones with huge soundstages and I'm a bit of a treble head...

I'm just going to end up selling them and some other headphones I have and try to buy some Grados. Thanks anyways Head-FI!

Bump. I would really like to not throw these guys away. Can anybody give any insight at all?

I was attempting to make them an open headphone by drilling holes in the back. While in the process, my driver became detached from the wires. The adhesive on it had been destroyed as well. Picture to show what broke: https://www.flickr.com/photos/92966415@N07/14117626243/ (not enough posts to...

Headphones I am looking at: Grado SR80i (Looking to mod) Audio Technica ATH-A700 V-MODA CrossFade M-80 (I'm looking for a deal on these, will probably get these if possible.) Senn HD439 Takstar Pro 80   The M-80 seems most promising but if I can't get that I will probably land with...

Hey guys, I was given the choice for a Christmas present this year. So here I am! I listen to a lot of dubstep and rock (think Black Keys and MGMT.) I also need them to be able to play my binaural tones which I use in meditating a lot. So I'm thinking: -comfortable for extended periods of time...
