Old thread but for me the most enjoyable/fun headphone i have used and own and heard is the fostex th900 mk2.

I may as well post this as i have the adi 2 dac fs. This is the most expensive piece of equipment that i own to drive my headphones and yes i use the adi 2 dac fs amp. It is quite a transformation coming from a marantz hd dac1, the sound quality is very nice very clean the depth it just sounds...

For me, for a very very short duration the nuraphone, it produced this intense bass that made me jump. Anyways i have a th900 mk2 coming, i am glad i made the right choice after researching peoples opinions about it, here and else where, because for me bass and sub bass is fundamental for me to...

Well regarding what i said, it would be a quantum speaker to achieve this in full glory with the strange world of quantum mechanics. Along with the secret of 3 6 9 which is what Nikola tesla was on about. I'll leave it here, hope you find the most suitable headphone for you. Dan.

Is there any amp dac that reads the sound signature of the headphones to give a more harmony match, as in how digital signals get turned into analogue? What i am trying to say is that this is a lazy mans approach, instead of an amp that dictates it's own sound signature on the headphone so it...

All about the advantages of analogue sound, which gives a fuller sound as well as layers to the music this apply to tube amps in varying degrees. Their are varying terms of this laid back sound signature, at a cost of a bit of distortion it can increase the sound quality this is what laid back...

Well, i recommend the d7200 or d9200 if you want to pay that much for d 9200 or not, why well the overall sound it is very likeable regarding the d 7200 i have and goes nice with my taste because of the sub bass response and the signature of it it is like a skirt extension, they have a realistic...

Exactly my friend, but if you agree with the sound that is all that matters as long as it sounds good with the mental burn in. Anyways i will leave it with the people who have heard high end or ultra high end. The best i have heard is the denon d7200 which has dry sound and a lively sound.

This can be extremely and i mean extremely subjective as to what you want. Anyways neutral sounding tonal balance non colour is what most true audiophiles want like exactly what professionals want for mixing, it has to incorporate that trait for enjoyment in a headphone not designed for mixing...

Pfft my tastes are subjective, first i always wanted proper hi end reference sound and closed cans (that sound just like open cans to an extent) because of the bass factor. About 10-15 headphones got me hooked on better sound, sub bass extension is very important to me, it has to be like a sub...

I also like what i hear from d7200. Best headphone i have heard, it is very fast a realistic with the transients which give a much better sound delivery, pfft sounds dead exact as pfft, other headphones i know and heard well not like these, other headphones have a masked like sound but none...

I also recommend the sound magic hp 151 in this price range.

I agree, i love it's sound and also i am addicted to the sound and don't want to go to bed, it has a lovely sound that i always wanted which is professional fun and not boring and very acceptable for audio lovers. Marantz has pulled it off with this dac 1, and i trust they will sell products...

I bought the hd dac 1 about a week ago and i am happy that i bought a decent piece of gear this time and it sounds wonderful, clean and detailed and will power any headphone with ease. A proper amp dac for beginners with great sound i recommend, i do love it's sound really. Dan.

Well, i think any headphones can't reproduce a sub woofer sound effect so well when compared to an actual sub woofer. To help you i would like to recommend the sound magic hp 151, one of my favorite headphones despite the price, because it has sensible sub bass. There are headphones that...

For me mine would be an upgraded sound magic hp 151 with the same sound signature but improved in every way.

I recommend the sound magic hp 151, great sound with the sound quality/detail which makes it sound lively along with nice bass. Dan.

Yes the amp/dac i am using is the ifi xdsd. Thanks for the headphone recommendations i will be keeping an eye on them. Dan.

I am very very picky when it comes to headphones, This is the best 'musical headphone' in my headphone collection the hi fi/cinematic sound these beauty's pump out is great. This headphone has my boxes ticked, the sub bass has rumble you can hear and feel, if you think bass on other headphones...

This headphone's personality trait is that it is purely cinematic (i think anyways), it is a divine experience with a liquid sound quality. Sounds come out of nowhere, Depending on the source the sound can sound very sweet also but in a non coloured way. Whether you agree with them being...

All i can say is remarkable for the price of the hp 151. I have owned a lot of headphones and know what they sound like, and also knowing what the hp 151 sounds like. If your someone who is after the way the headphones portray music in a hi fi fashion, or after great sounding headphones and...

Right well my sound magic hp 151 have arrived today and using them so far i think, that it has a nice rich hi fi sound along with good bass presence and sounds spacious and nice sound quality. For the money they are the best i have heard in the price range of headphone costing £100 so to speak...

I am good with plurals.

Well I hope you try them out, no? I know you said nothing, wasn't talking to you. If you give these a listen it will justify my crap posts.

Alright fair enough folks, we're all entitled to our own opinion. They are indeed crap whilst i am being sarcastic, they definitely at the very least hold their own. Every thing surrounding this headphone must be crap, even all the praise must be crap. Despite the band wagon i do like the way...
