If you could only have one budget priced headphone (<$100), which would it be?
The headphones you would have to use for everything, music, gaming, basshead fix (by EQ), portability/travel and comfortable (for long usage). If the headphone breaks, you would buy it again. My ATH-ES7 are very uncomfortable even after adjusting the clamp but the sound is great. XB500 was...- dyce

Where to buy fake PortaPro to use the headband on KSC75?
I can't seem to find anything at dealextreme and focalprice. Perhaps Koss killed all the fakers? I just want the headband and don't want to keep switching my portapros. I can't justify buying another PortaPro just for the headband.- dyce

Sansa Clip+ Sounds too good, how do I replicate the sound from my PC?
With the manual EQ for the lowest band (bass) and my FiiO E11 I get a perfect bass for my DT770 80 with no distortion (well depends on the song). Does anyone have any tips on what software I should use to hopefully replicate this sound? I have had difficulty trying to reproduce it in MediaMonkey...- dyce

AudioTechnica ES7 Upgrade?
My ES7s got stolen. I absolutely loved them though. The clamped design on-ear, even if uncomfortable, gave tremendous bass impact in comparison to M50s and my DT770. So im looking for something that would be better or similar. On-ear and bassy. I listen to music at pretty loud levels and...- dyce

D4 Mamba or PB1 Toucan for DT770/80 basshead listener
will the ibasso D4 or PB1 help me exceed dangerous amounts of bass in my dt770? im looking for something that will be considerably better than a mini3. I understand the d4 has a DAC in it. Does having a DAC kill the stand alone amp functionality? Like the FiiO E7, the standalone amp is horrible...- dyce

Something better than mini3? similar price?
I tried mini3 with my DT770 80 ohms and it was loud, but for like normal listening it was ok but no rock out volume. I dont know what gain it was at, but would higher gain even help? But my M50s sounded great, you could feel the bass vibrating a bit. I want to experience similar with...- dyce

ATH-M50 straight vs coiled?
any reason why there is a difference between the two? is it noticeable to the ear? is the coiled just more convenient for portable use? since its shorter? Thanks.- dyce
