Sennheiser Amperior Impressions Thread
That. Paciencia amigo. These cans are the best, believe me. Just give them some more time, they should not sound muffled at all, to the contrary I find them bright but not overly so. I've not tried the regular HD25's but I've read that they are more agressive in the upper mid region, I'm...- Elektrospeed

Sennheiser Amperiors?
Quote: Amperiors definitely have the upper hand in mid-bass quantity. I'd say the amperiors have more body, but the v-modas have more depth.- Elektrospeed

Sennheiser Amperiors?
I find Amperiors very good for EDM, and dance music in general. Hip-Hop / R&B not so much. Bass is strong but mid-bass focused. I find the v-modas better for sub-bass oriented music.- Elektrospeed

Sennheiser Amperiors?
Yeah, just get the amperiors, you don't even need an amp for them. These things are really awesome all across the frequency range and don't get strident UNLESS you turn up the volume way too much. For reference, I listen to them just a little above "half the volume" in my iPhone 5.- Elektrospeed

Workout / Gym / Running
I've tried the following: Klipsch X10 Klipsch S4 Sony XBA II Sennheiser CX300ii The absolute winner is CX300ii. For 2 reasons: 1) Secure. All the others fall out of my ears with medium intensity workouts. The CX300ii's do not. They stay secure unless you tug at the cable...- Elektrospeed

Are bass-heavier headphones better for outside use?
If you see any of the isolation vs. frequency charts, you'll notice isolation usually increases the higher the frequency. This is because lower frequencies are more difficult to attenuate, either passively or actively. I think wavelenght has something to do with it, you'd have to use a really...- Elektrospeed

Sennheiser Amperiors?
Absolutely no need to amp them IMO. I'd just rather plug them directily to the iPhone than going through the hassle of carrying the E17, which implies more bulk and losing the line mic & controls. SQ improvement, if any, was negligible with iPhone/iTouch 4g. Haven't tried E17 with iPhone 5...- Elektrospeed

Sennheiser Amperiors?
Probably very similar, but definetly not the same driver, starting with impedance difference. But that will be like placing an LS1 engine on a Corvette C7...- Elektrospeed

Audio Technica ATH-M50 - What's all the fuss about?
I have the M50s "white box" and, to my ears, bass is not at all overempowered, nor are the mids quite so recessed (a little bit, not as much as I've read here). They're actually pretty great headphones, and I think most flaming comes from people who has not actually heard them, just like they...- Elektrospeed
