    AudioQuest Nighthawk - AMP+DAC

    I have tried them for a few days with my now broke Fiio E07K and to me, it seemed like there was a pretty significant difference in sound quality. Maybe I don't need an amp, but just a DAC - do you think that could be the issue?

    AudioQuest Nighthawk - AMP+DAC

    Hi guys, I've recently invested in AudioQuest's Nighthawk headphones (http://www.head-fi.org/products/audioquest-nighthawk-headphones)   Right off the bat it's pretty clear that they need an AMP+DAC to function properly, as my Sennheiser HD598 actually sound better without.    I'm rather...

    New closed headphones! (perhaps amp too)

    Thanks a lot for the reply. They definitely seem like a great option for me. I prefer to get a new pair though. I'm from Denmark so the cheapest I've found them for is $649 which is alright to me.    How are the isolation - do they completely block out all noise? Like say you're on a plane...

    New closed headphones! (perhaps amp too)

    Greetings fellow headphone enthusiasts!   I’m looking into buying a closed pair of full size headphones. My current headphones are the Sennheiser HD 598, which are open. I’d like a closed alternative to them, as I sometimes need the isolation when I’m sharing my room with others. Also the...

    **Hifiman HE-400 Impressions and Discussion Thread**

    Hi there.    Pretty simple question: where can I buy this pair of headphones in Europe? Gotta be from a website that ships to Denmark - the cheaper the better obviously :)

    Which closed headphones should I opt for in the 300-400$~ range?

    I have found Denon AH-D600 for 325$, do you guys reckon this is a good deal? Or do you think I can find something better?

    Which closed headphones should I opt for in the 300-400$~ range?

    Hi friends!   I'm looking for a great pair of closed headphones, since I am sharing my living room with other people. I currently own a pair of Sennheiser HD 598, but since they are completely open, it gets annoying in the long run in these surroundings. I am mainly going to plug them...

    Which closed headphones should I opt for in the $300~ range?

    If I order them through that website, I'm pretty sure I have to pay customs duty, which can potentially increase the cost quite substantially. I would prefer ones that are easier to come by in EU, even though they definitely seem like a nice pair of headphones.

    MrSpeakers Mad Dog looks pretty interesting. Seems like they are available in EU here: http://www.soundconsult.nl/pagina_item.php?page=3&naam=Products&id=38&categorienaam=Headphones   350 euros / 470$ is a bit steep though. I'll definitely look more into them though and consider em. Thanks :)

    Beginner looking for a great pair of "all-around" headphones (max budget 500$~)

    Thanks a lot for your replies, I'll definitely check these out. And yeah, the m100's bass was a tad too much for me as well, I guess :)

    Beginner looking for a great pair of "all-around" headphones (max budget 500$~)

    Greetings!   I've always been very interested in listening to music, lots of completely different genres and I've decided it's finally time for me to buy a proper pair of headphones, as such I've been lurking these forums quite a lot, but I'm still puzzled about which ones to buy. By...
