    AKG K550 review - Essentially a closed-back K702 - literally.

      The bottom line is that these AKG K550's right out of the box sound like K702's with a +2db boost to all frequencies lower than 500Hz.  So if you favor the AKG flavor, slightly thin-sounding mids and bright highs, and need closed-back, look no further.  Comfort is off the piston - The Denon...

    Beyerdynamic DT860 review - Don't treat it like a step-child...

      I've owned almost all the DT770-990 series, and some of them in different impedances. The "old-skool" DT860's takes the cake. I was immediately hooked on the forward mids (yup, they are more forward than the DT880, regardless of impedance), deep, punchy bass (but not as loose as the DT990)...

    Audio Technica AD700 - Guaranteed ultra comfort mod for those with smaller heads.

      I'm on a roll with these pad mods.  Anyway, all I did was purchase some extra Beyerdynamic velours from their site, took one of them, cut it in half and Krazy Glued it to the top portion of the stock AD700 pads.  Unbelievable!!!   Let me tell you, I've had many comfortable headphones...

    Audio Technica ATH-PRO700MK2 review - Take two subwoofers...straight to the head.

      Just look at that beast The first things that stood out superior right out the box compared to the M50 - detachable cables (any standard 3.5mm cables will fit into the slot, awesome), sensitivity of 106db versus M50's 99db (got my headroom much quicker, love it), and the fact that it has...

    Audio Technica AD700 review - Don't laugh at the color son...

    Yup, it's purple, and beige. It also has wings! Well those are for comfort; and homie, they are comfortable. When I received the Audio Technica AD700's, I chuckled a bit when I plugged it into my receiver for a movies/games test. I was thinking...these couldn't sound better than my Beyerdynamic...

    Beyerdynamic DT880 600ohm review - The 5 Star General

    I had purchased this over a year ago.  Even though I no longer own it I want to chime in on perhaps one of the best headphones you can get.  I've craved more bass, so my journey for the headphone that strikes me solid continues.  Nevertheless, the DT880 600ohm has grand comfort, grand sound, and...

    ATH M50 "Cush x2" mod for incredible comfort and sound. (5megapixel photos)

      What I basically did was purchase some Beyerdynamic "EDT 990 S" pads from their website for 39 dollars shipped.  Took them and applied Krazy glue to the bottom of the pads and attached them to the stock versions.  I had also attached a spare M50 ear cushion to the headband, known to me, as...

    Beyerdynamic DT990 32 ohm review - Crisp sound with perhaps a touch of Grey "EQ" Poupon (5megapixel photos)

      This DT990 32ohm in my opinion is Beyer's most versatile and dynamic headphone they have ever produced. It can be used as a portable phone if you wish, with it's low impedance design and super-comfortable structure. My source is a T-Mobile G2 (Android 2.2) running Poweramp as my music...

    Audio Technica M50S review - A fine closed headphone.

    I'll say this first off: I don't record, DJ, or do any mixes with this headphone (no prosumer work). These Audio Technica M50's (straight cable) are used purely for listening to my music. One phrase comes to mind about these cans: O MiE GaWd! Highs - Imagine a dedicated tweeter per cup. The...

    Easy, Cheap, Ultra-comfort headband mod to virtually any headphone.

    Funny, all I did was purchase some additional Audio Technica M50 ear pads from Sweetwater.  I took a rubber band and looped it over the cup, onto the headband, then wedged one of the cushions in between them.  AMAZING results!!!  There is ZERO pressure points on the delicate dome-piece.  The...

    Sennheiser HD 380/DT-770pro/Denon AHD-2000

    Sup yall, I'm currently looking for the king of sealed headphones. All these choices sound fantastic, but I have no experience with them(brand-wise). Looking for some suggestions especially on comfort and sound. Primary use will be for gaming and movies. Willing to spend up to four Benji's...
