Thanks for all of the guidance. I'm excited to try these out and now seem confidant in being able to at the very least break even if I don't like them. Looks like ill be pulling the trigger :)

I'm very new to headphones but want to get a pair of nice Grados.    I currently have the opportunity to get the GS1000i headphones for $425 (used in 8/10 condition, no box but Grado mini adapter included). It seems like a great deal but I'm not 100% sure if I should pull the trigger or just...

I'll have to go try them again.    I was pretty disappointed and perhaps it was all because of incorrect positioning. 

I have the P5's and was able to compare them side by side at BB as well.    The P3 sound isolation was non existent. And perhaps they werent burned in yet but the overall sound was a bit weak and hollow. Prior to testing them, I read alot of rave reviews on the P3 and expected the sound to...

I just tested them out at my local Best Buy (SoCal).   There's alot to like about them, but also some things I didnt. 

Quote:   I would prefer the more portable case. There's no need to carry the extra cables with me at all times. 

I too have the ATH-M50's and am interested in the Sennheiser HD598 (never tried).    I liked the M50's alot but am deciding to sell them because they hurt my head after a few hours of use. I'm starting to discover that I'm not a big fan of on-ears. I also am in current possession of Bose...

Bowers & Wilkins P5.    I own/tried ATH-M50, Bose QC15, Bose AE2, Bose IE2, Bose OE2, Beats Studio and Solo, Klipsch Image One. 

How about On-Ear headphones?   I've used the Sennheiser PX200 and enjoyed them. They are very portable (fold up small and fit into a nice sturdy plastic case).   I saw these listed on Amazon for $49.99 a few weeks back. Just my 2 cents.

I just purchased the Bowers & Wilkins P5 and love them. My only gripe is that the case that they come with is flimsy. I don't feel too confident about throwing them in with my luggage or overnight bag.    I was wondering if anyone knows if a sturdy case is available for the P5's.   Any...

I would like to know this as well. They look like the perfect set of headphones in terms of sound quality, portability and style.    I checked all the online stores and nobody has them in stock yet.   I hope they hit the Apple store soon so I can test them out!

Great review! I love Monoprice (especially because they are in my city and allow for same day local pickup).   For $20, I'll definitely pick these up as a backup or travel pair.

I did a lot of research and ended up with the M50's. They sound amazing but I found they were quite heavy and clamped on my head a bit tight. After a couple hours of use, they start to give me headaches and require some break time. I love the sound and style but the comfort is something to...

The shrink tubing sounds like a good idea.   I've owned 2 sets of in ear Bose headphones, both of which had cable wear and tear issues after the warranty period expired. I never took them out of the office but I guess gradual tugging here and there eventually took its toll. Bose didnt...
