    Tired of chasing. Wide soundstage with adequate bass and comfort

    I...bought the HD800s. I'm weak. I love them. Exactly the sound I was looking for...but what the hell is wrong with me. Hopefully this bug will leave me alone for some months now.

    Tired of chasing. Wide soundstage with adequate bass and comfort

    I was able too get the MDR 7 extremely cheap comparatively too what I can usually get here. But they are not an option, just one of those things that felt too good to pass up. I do think the nightowl can be interesting but people seem too recommend those ones more than the Nighthawks. Both were...

    Tired of chasing. Wide soundstage with adequate bass and comfort

    They are certainly interesting. Loving the options you can choose and seems too have gotten a really good reception. I wonder big the soundstage really is. That it is a closed headphone is worrying but every sign is pretty positive. Pretty cheap price too. I could possibly audition them however...

    Tired of chasing. Wide soundstage with adequate bass and comfort

    There is someone selling the Nightowl Carbon close to me. Same for the Nighthawks. But are they really what I am after? Then again that question is kinda difficult too answer considering how polarizing those Audioquest headphones are from the start. Something that makes this a bit more difficult...

    Tired of chasing. Wide soundstage with adequate bass and comfort

    It is wide stage and decent bass. I would like too have everything but it is quite unrealistic. Most of the headphones that I have gotten lacks that. Ideally no clamping issues since that can really sour the experience and make it worse over time.

    Tired of chasing. Wide soundstage with adequate bass and comfort

    Would have too be open. They look interesting but worried about that headband. Looks very similar too my AR-H1 which is a bit concerning. Reading some reports on them. I'm worried these will kinda blend in with that one and my he 500s. Really hard too say. But I wasn't really aware of this pair...

    Tired of chasing. Wide soundstage with adequate bass and comfort

    I have gone back and forth with a lot of headphones. Rarely they disappoint but I end up dissapointing and I eventually come back too my old AD700. Now I love these headphones but they end up lacking with bass which is probably a surprise too no one. But looking back, I have not looked...

    Acoustic Research AR-H1 Planar Impressions and Discussion thread

    Can confirm that I got the ZMF lamb skin headpad and it ends up being too small too wrap around. I actually got so frustrated I literally cut into the arch so I could put them on lol. It is not pretty and the headpad ends up being a bit too wide for it so it does not look good either. The other...

    Acoustic Research AR-H1 Planar Impressions and Discussion thread

    Is there any mods for the headband here? Or any that might fit decently even if it was meant for something else? It sits really well but for some reason I start too get a headache from these and I know it is that. Looking around on ebay or amazon and I just find for sennheiser ones etc. Almost...

    If you like Progressive trance, I recommend Luigi Lusini.

    Headphone Sightings 2

    beats are rampant over here, so many people have them it`s really insane. I have seen like one xb500 and one random headset I couldn`t identify at my school. Same goes for going around in the city. There are a few Bose headsets I see appear but lol, that doesn`t make it really better. Kinda...

    Looking for upgrade!

    Guess I have to post an update.   Man, I can`t thank you people enough for all the information I have gathered here, and the recommendations I got. This headset literally blows everything I have ever heard before, and then some. Music just sounds so friggin good now, it`s almost...

    Headphones for an audio-newby.

    I would deffo stay away from xb500. Yes, the bass is kinda interesting at first because its so massive. But then you start to realize that there isnt much more going for it. And to be honest, the bass is pretty incoherent with music also. From what I have read around the forums, the d2000 would...

    Wow this is really taking longer than I expected. Neither the headphones or the amp has even been shipped. Bleh...

    Looking for upgrade!

    You may be right, but then again I doubt my ears are as sensitive as your`s compared to my limited experience with high end. Mostly had a bunch of crappy cans over the years, so I doubt I will be dissapointed with the result. However, I will post an update or a thread about the experience and so...
