    Skullcandy Aviators.

    Tried these for a few days and was very impressed with the sound. Quite balanced, very pleasant sound...not harsh. I returned them because they are a strange size. Somewhere in between over ear and on ear...uncomfortable to wear for extended periods of time. People have different preferences in...

    Need help deciding on speakers

    Heard a demo of the new B&W desktop speakers. Expensive, but very nice. Worth a listen if you get a chance. Check 'em out here:   http://www.bowers-wilkins.com/iPod_and_Computer_Speakers/iPod_and_Computer_Speakers/MM-1/Overview.html

    Bowers & Wilkins P5 Mobile Headphones Review

    Thanks, I hope I do continue to like them for the price I paid!  :)   The sound is very warm, but I find that my head seems to like that. I don't get any treble fatigue, I think that is the best part. When I listen to my 595's for an extended period of time (even at a medium volume) the...

    Bowers & Wilkins P5 Mobile Headphones Review

    Just bought the P5's and absolutely love the warm, neutral sound. They take the edge off of the sound coming out of my iPad. Traditionally harsh sounding tunes are pleasant to listen to. I agree with most of you, some treble detail is softened but I prefer that. Very happy so far!

    closed can comparison: $100 to $1500

    I'm a little late to the game here, but I've tried both the D1100's and the T5P and there simply isn't a fair comparison. The T5P's are simply incredible. They are big so they might not be the most portable in that regard, but the Denon's simply cannot compete. Different class altogether. The...

    Bowers & Wilkins P5 Mobile Headphones Review

    I appreciate the thorough review, thank you! To me, the most telling part of this review is the "made for mobile devices" part. Here we have headphones designed specifically for iPods, cell phones, etc. I would assume that the vast majority of people out there have their music collections...

    New product: Bose Around Ear 2

    I am very happy with the AE2's. I've been listening to 595's for a while now and actually prefer the Bose for certain types of music: R&B, jazz, blues, electronica. Very happy with the purchase. Great for portability and actually do a great job at muting outside noise.

    Burn In?

    You need to use the search function and read or just let everyone tell you how your own ears work.     Is there an option to ignore keywords or thread topics?     My friend, perhaps some of us don't have the time to read through a trillion posts on the topic of "burn in", and would...

    Burn In?

    I know there are many postings on "burn in", but there seems to be a fair deal of contradiction on this topic. As a budding headphone enthusiast, what exactly do I need to burn in? Or is it simply not necessary?   Thanks for your help! AO

    Review by 'aorbinati' on item 'Sennheiser HD 595 Headphones'

    I have been using these everyday for about 2 weeks now and here are my initial thoughts:   The delivery of the musical soundstage isn't distracting in any way. Some people don't like this, as increased bass response or sharper highs are often valued - but I LOVE the flat, neutral sound of...

    Good deal?

    Hey everyone,   I'm just getting started with high-end headphones, looking forward to it!   Just picked up a pair of slightly used Senn 595's (120 Ohm) for $125.00 shipped. Seems like a decent deal, right?

    Denon 7000 for $650, should I?

    He does electronic/trance music mostly. I really don't like his stuff, but at least he's doin it. I wont sell him out by giving his label name, but chances are you have not heard it. Small operation...

    Impressions of Sennheiser 595

    The 595's are far more sensitive than the 600's. 50 vs. 300 Ohms respectively. Looks like Senn geared the 595's toward the portable gear market?

    New V-Moda Crossfade LP Unboxed & Reviewed

    I am very particular about build quality and had a chance to sample these for quite a while at the Apple Store. I was impressed with the amount of metal used in the design (something I like in particular), but have two questions: does the metal extend into the whole headband? And, are the pads...

    Denon 7000 for $650, should I?

    For what its worth, A friend of mine owns a studio in NYC and uses the 7000's. I'm assuming he loves them because thats all I ever see on his head.   Cheers, Al
