Trae, I wish I knew half of what you're capable of!  That project is flat-out amazing, man I wish I had those skills

Hello Trae, I would try the Ultrasone HFI-580's.  That's what I've moved to - and haven't had a phone yet that suits my taste with bass compared to it.

@moneyme247, If you want, I'll give you the permission to copy/paste the measurements I took and post it yourself if you wish :)   That size matters thread is a great idea

Quote:   Thanks!  Well, if I crank it up past the 110db that I'm perceiving, then the distortion/driver rattling starts to kick in.  I'm just quite surprised with this much bass within the cup, and it still gets satisfyingly loud as well.  The COPs and my HFi 580's are my babies!  And...

Quote:  Ok, thanks!  I also re-read the Amazon description - the mic addition is separate.  I didn't notice that the first time around

Just got my COPS, these sound fantastic!  I did amp them with the Headroom MicroAmp and achieved 110db.  Not bad, so I'm keeping these.  And that was with the bass ports on the 3rd position (2nd highest from maximum bass).   On a side thought, were the COPs supposed to come with two cables? ...

Quote:   You're right Chewy.  I discovered the same thing years ago, which is how I turned to just getting my tunes, albeit paying for them, through Amazon Mp3 or CD.  I can't stand anything in 128k, I also hear warbled sounds in addition to lowered volume as well compared to a higher...

I finally ordered these COP's, so I can investigate myself.  I will post back results on how loud I perceive they can get.  Whether folks agree with my findings or not, I want to help others that do like their music loud.

Ok devhen, I will check that out when I get the chance.  I'm contemplating some Pro900's.

I just received my HFI-580's.  I'm already looking at the top of the line Ultrasone's now - that's how RIDICULOUSLY GOOD these sound   Unreal, they also get BEYOND loud for me, I couldn't get them to distort at all - holy mother...  

Quote:   You must be talking to me.  Ha, I've also picked up a pair of 580's.  On the description, Ultrasone mentioned how the Mylar drivers on those are impossible to blow.  That's music to my ears.  I want to hear your thoughts on the 750's.

Quote:   You can, but unfortunately that will cost some money.  Beyer Manufaktur will customize it with any color combo you want.  I used to have a pair of DT990's, all black with the grills in chrome.  THAT was the sickest looking phone I've ever had.  Set me back $450.

devhen, You are correct about everything.  I still want a closed back that I can blast my ears off.
