    What would be an upgrade to the V-MODA Crossfade M-100?

    Thanks for your reply. Correct me if I'm wrong but don't they lack a bit on bass both, especially the Classics? The quality I value the most is a good bass resolution, tight and almost physical without being dark or masking the highs much. V shaped so to speak, though not "vulgar". EDM would...

    Thanks but the Sony are beyond my budget, at $500. https://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDRV6-Studio-Monitor-Headphones/dp/B00001WRSJ

    What would be an upgrade to the V-MODA Crossfade M-100?

    HI, I produce electronic music. Unfortunately, after 3 years of heavy use (travel), my M-100 broke... :frowning2: They have gone from 200 euros in December 2022 to 250 euros in 2023...! I really liked them but now I'm game for an upgrade. Full-size. Closed. Strong bass. Budget: $400/400...

    What are the best closed can headphones in 2020 for bassheads, that don't need an amp, under $500?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but those are OPEN, not closed, right? Do you mean the Aeon Flow 2 CLOSED? https://danclarkaudio.com/headphones-22/aeon/aeon-flow-2-closed.html I need them not to leak sound to the outside, for I'd use them in a library. Have you tested these against other hp? At...

    V-Moda M-200

    This might be actually good for me, provided they can be fine tuned to meet my bass requirements. How do they compare to your original Crossfade LP and LP2? How are the bass and sub-bass after you EQ them properly?

    What are the best closed can headphones in 2020 for bassheads, that don't need an amp, under $500?

    I like a tight bass and a deep sub-bass, while not shadowing the middle and high frequencies. These would be used to listen to electronic music mostly (psytrance, trance, house...). Ideally from a not too exotic brand, as I'm living in Europe and they might be hard to get here. My budget is...

    What are the best closed back headphones for electronic music below $1000 in 2020?

    Thanks for your comments! Just to clarify, I am looking for headphones BELOW $1000, ideally around $800 and ideally from a not too exotic brand, for I am based in Europe. 🙂

    What are the best closed back headphones for electronic music below $1000 in 2020?

    According to a lot of reviews, the Fostex TH900 Mk2 might be what I'm after. But they are way beyond $1000... So, I plan to shortlist a few headphones before I audition them in the shop. I'm looking for tight and physical bass and deep sub-bass —that doesn't shadow most of the spectrum...

    What is a worthy successor to the mythical Denon AH-D2000?

    They have to be: - Closed - I am looking for the best tight, deep sub bass and also smoothest treble —non-sibilant— for electronic music. - No need for an external amp.

    Audeze LCD2 any good for house, trance, techno music?

    Anyone reading this in 2020 would like to comment? I'm considering to purchase these for electronic music as well, even though they are way beyond my budget ($600), but I wouldn't mind to wait provided they are worth it. What are some other competitors in this price range?

    V-Moda M-200

    I'm after some headphones for electronic music. I have been told that even though these headphones are meant to be used in the studio, they can be used "for fun", and equalized pretty well to fit your needs in the bass department, for instance. What's the sound signature of the M-200? Is...

    Head-Fi Basshead IEM thread (lists page 1)

    Thanks mayorblurps. Unfortunately I'm in Europe and I've been unable to find a dealer over here, so I'd rather look for some other IEMs from a major brand.

    What would you guys consider good IEMs for a basshead under $100?

    (Serious bet) I bet you $10.000 that when compared evenly, the sonic differences between amplifiers operated below clipping are below the audible threshold of human hearing.

    Ok, it's not my bet, but it is serious: http://tom-morrow-land.com/tests/ampchall/index.htm
