    Shure SRH840 don't have any bass, can anyone help?

    Not many since I just got them. After burn in will their performance increase that much? The return policy gives me 14 days, so I guess I can just leave them to burn in over night, but I'll have to return them if I can't see a sound quality increase soon. 1. I was originally thinking of...

    Shure SRH840 don't have any bass, can anyone help?

    So I recently purchased Shure SRH840's and I am very split about the headphones. On one hand their mids and highs are absolutely beautiful and their clarity in the upper ranges is phenomenal. However, their bass is little to non-existent and it feels as though the range just doesn't even reach...

    Why do headphones die so easily?

    Thanks everyone for the responses. To answer some of the things that came up: I don't wrap the cord around my phone, by not carelessly shoving them a backpack I mean that I have a dedicated padded pocket specifically for my IEM's (my backpack is awesome), also my CAL!'s which never left the...

    Why do headphones die so easily?

    Hey all, I know this seems like a really stupid question, but hear me out. I have gone through lots of pairs of headphones, and they all just end up dying on me eventually. Usually it starts with one side slowly getting quieter and quieter until you can't hear it and then the other side quickly...

    CAL!'s Vs. Shure SRH440

    thanks guys. I am leaning toward the CAL!'s right now so I guess I will probably go for them. I just wish they could fold up... (I will use these headphones on the go)  then could then I wouldn't even have to consider anything else. Thanks again

    AKG k121 or Shure SRH440

    @ phamkl thanks for the comment, but I already knew that the cord would be too long, but the cord is detachable and I actually have a couple replacement cords right now. By portability I mostly meant the actual size of the headphones and the ability to fold up (as opposed to the other pair of...

    AKG k121 or Shure SRH440

    hey I am also looking at the srh440. I will use them out of my ipod and I listen to pretty much only rock. The reason I'm looking at them is because they fold up (i will use these headphones on the go) and they seem well reviewed for under $100. Do you think these will be a good fit or should I...

    ++ FULL-SIZE HEADPHONE RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD++ CLOSED: Please post a thread in the Introductions, Help and Advice forum

    Hey I'm looking at the Cal!s (Creative Aurvana Live!). I have heard that these are pretty much the same as the D1100's, but cheaper. If anyone has the Cal!'s please tell me if they are any good and if not I am looking for a decent pair of portable, closed cans that are preferably less than $100...

    CAL!'s Vs. Shure SRH440

    After about a month of research, these are the two headphones it has come down to. Now to me these both seem like great headphones, but I only have enough cash to buy one of them so I have to choose between them. I have asked around the forum a bit and people keep telling me which pair they...

    ++ FULL-SIZE HEADPHONE RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD++ CLOSED: Please post a thread in the Introductions, Help and Advice forum

    I listen to pretty much only rOck and because the music's fast pace I need headphones that are a balance between nasty and clear. I really am willing to send no more than $ 100 on these headphones. Right now I am looking at the CAL!'s and the SRH440. So which is better?

    I CAN'T DECIDE

    Hey, my old ear buds are starting to break down and I've decided to look at full size headphones. Now don't get me wrong, I've done tons of research, but I need some help deciding or some new suggestions. Here is all the potential candidates for new headphones I'm looking at in order from most...
