Great, now I'll want to test if I'm in the 10%, and if not with one pair then maybe with that one other. Thanks a lot!   You can't. It's now quoted for posterity. I want a delete button too.   Yeah, some follow that for some things, but it's not practical to apply to everything. Pick...

Thanks, so you're saying they might not even be that neutral after all? Interesting.       Any other suggestions for a neutral-ish, clear and detailed sound in over-the-ear phones with deep ear cups that swivel in all directions?

See I'm just getting into this, but the "good enough" approach makes sense. I'm looking at headphones around $300, and just one pair of them. I might add a single dac/amp and that's it. 320k MP3s FTW. I'm sure these will be better than typical and, most importantly, sound very good. So if they...

Hi. I like the sound of the M500s. People with more expertise than me say they're very neutral, with a lot of detail and clarity. Most find them extremely comfortable as well, and in the my quick test they seemed fine.   Please suggest other headphones to have a look at if I'd like...   Have...

Thanks for the suggestions.   It seems that a lot of people have problems with build quality on the Shure SRH940, but I have a different question if anyone cares to answer. Looking at the charts (http://graphs.headphone.com/graphCompare.php?graphType=0&graphID[]=2851&graphID[]=3101&scale=30)...

Is there such a thing? HD 598 sounds good, but I'd like a bit more bass.   I also want it to have the following features: Isolating, but not necessarily portable. Over the ear and very comfortable (also with glasses). Ideally pleather or extremely soft velour - velour can be annoying to me...

Quote: I noticed there's a bunch of other graphs that it would be interesting to learn about, but time... Thanks for recommendations of reference pairs. See, I knew this was going to happen. I was going to come in here, and be exposed to a whole new world of technical details, and I'd...

I was a bit surprising to see science "banned" from the rest of the forum, and I think my question belongs here.   HeadRoom and Inner Fidelity have frequency response charts for many headphones. I plan to use these charts to find more options that match a few headphones I heard and liked...
