The RHAs are a bit too pricey, liking the piston 2s though, look great and only 25 bucks... sweet. but are they a better choice over the hammerheads? (both will cost me the same as I'd have to get the pistons from overseas)   Also, how are these...

Hmm... Never heard of them before. Looked 'em up, They cost $99. Getting it shipped and all will cost me around $30 more, also they look sort of 'meh', not bad though. Are they worth the extra as compared to the razers? ($80 vs. ~$130)

My trusty sammy OEMs lost sound in the left bud last week, looking for IEMs preferably under $100... I Keep a pair of Sennheiser HD598s for my audiophile needs which I bought a few months back and absolutely love (planning to upgrade to the HD600s soon). However, I'm looking for something just...

I got my cans today...  Been trying them the whole day... First, the bass... I was worried that the bass would be crap but boy, there is WAY more bass then there is in my cheap in-ears... and these things even haven't been run in... I think this is the perfect headphone bass in my opinion... If...

Quote: OHHH... I see...  ... but no one I know is abroad... :'( I'm a VERY unlucky guy...    ALSO, I just prayed and ordered my hd 598's :D:D:D These will be my first real cans... Thank you guys alot for all the help and enlightment... I doubt I'll be disappointed... I'll tell you guys...

Quote: The world would be such a happy place to live in if someone did gift them to me :P... I do have rich friends, but the last gift I got from anyone of them was a membership to a local pizzeria (buy one get one free on all pizzas baby!!! )... xD

btw, I'm getting the 598's from here... http://www.vmart.pk/headsets-earphones-pakistan/#ty;pagination_contents;/headsets-earphones-pakistan/?sort_by=price&sort_order=desc ...

Quote: http://www.magiclamp.pk/index.php ... I think they order directly from Amazon, e.t.c... You can change the displayed price to dollars... They're selling 598's for $380 xD ... I guess for me its either the hd 598's or nothing... Please tell me if you find this jewel...

Quote: I would love to save a 100 bucks/ explore other cans, but if you read I have a very limited choice :( ... I also can't order them from overseas the shipment and duty is just too much... The below site orders from amazon but they are selling the cans for Rs25,000 ($250)... :(...

Quote: Haha, my point was can these cans take a beating? like going to gigs, having jamming sessions 5 times a week, The occasional 'drop', e.t.c...

I've made up my mind... HD 598 it is... Just a few things I wanna ask now... how can you tell if its a fake( I don't trust this site THAT much), and how durable are these/how long will they last? I'm a VERY rough user... who knows, next thing you know I'm out doing Parkour with my 598's...

Quote:   Yes, I'm in a VERY limited choice...  Quote: The 558 is quite cheaper... Is there much difference between it and the 598? And I don't mind the bass... I guess if I get a good amp and tinker with the EQ a bit I can easily drive good bass from the hd598's... I prefer...
