Hi guys..   I recently purchased a used pair of M50s on Amazon warehouse deals for around 85 bucks or so.. I didn't stop to think that there was a chance of these being fakes.   The headphones will arrive in approximately 2 weeks. Are there a large amount of fake m50s in the market place...

I do hope i didn't get one of the knock offs either..   I purchased my headphones on amazon about 2 years ago.. At the time it was about 68 dollars..    This review seems to me very accurate as my headphones suffer from alot of sibilance and shrill highs..    Is there anyway to confirm...

Hi guys.. I wanna upgrade from a Sony v6 studio monitor headphones. The sonys serve me well for playing software pianos using my digital piano + computer , but the sibilance issues and exaggerated heights are getting to me. Currently trying to "burn them in" hoping that it would tame them...

I heard of that actually.. tried to get it to work but failed.. it is a bit complicated.. will try again and see if I get through I lost my patience but it can't be that hard to figure out..   Thanks..   If anyone knows of any other system wide eq software that is hopefully a little easier...

Can anyone recommend decent software to eq out the upper end of the V6?.. been using Deezer for my music . They stream at 320kbps(premium).. To test the headphones I use flac tho.. But I would prefer an eq that would work with streaming music as well as flac files.

Will look into the He-300... Read several comments about the clamping force being unbearable..   I should mention that I have a very large head.   Someone mentioned that the HD598 is warm and non-fatigueing..   Anyways thanks for all the info. I will look into the Hifiman headphones and...

Lets add Hifiman to the mix while we are at it.. That headphones looks rather sexy.. 50mm dynamic drivers?... damnnn

sooooo,,, between the HD598, DT770,, DT990pro,,, M50 and the Q701...   I'm sorry if i'm being picky I just don't wanna purchase another set which has that exaggerated heights that I seem to be intolerant of .   Someone mentioned the HD650 but that would be well out of my budget.   Which of...

Wow.. Lots of info coming in here...   I Prefer open ear headphones because I like a large soundstage. But I'm not agaist closed headphones.   Now that I understand exactly what V shaped means I can say that I am not looking for V shaped ..   the DT 770 looks nice..   I don't have...

"traditionally V-shaped with deek dark sexy bass and less mid/treble range?"   That sounds like what i'm looking for..   lol..   I don't get why the V6 has such rave reviews. But I understand that everyone is different and I may be extra sensitive to heights and treble.. My friend...

Under 200$ would be nice.   Generally I would prefer something that is well balanced but warm at the same time.   Well controlled Bass.. I prefer to not have exaggerated bass that drowns out everything else.   I listen to symphonic rock at times so a solid midrange is a must.   It seems...

I'm currently trying to burn in my v6 as well after reading this post.   The heights are overly harsh..   excellent for playing piano however but anything else is not enjoyable for me.   I've got a 4hr playlist which I plan to play 1-2 times a day for the next month.. That should do the...

Hi guys.   I was just wondering in general, which headphones has a reputation for no sibilance and maybe a darker sound signature?   I currently own a Sony V6.. Spent a lot of time with them.. I tried to like them I really did..   I only use em when playing piano now because the heights...

Ok cool. I'll purchase them as a replacement in that case because my current pads are falling apart. I think I will try to burn in the headphones a little. Just play some tunes for a few hours a day to get around 100 hrs in. Various people have claimed the heights simmered down after burn in...

Thanks man..   Does this really help with the sibilance and pronounced heights?

No problem dude. Glad I was able to help someone :)

Hi guys..   I seem to be very sensitive to sibilance and bright treble..   But I was wondering if this can be a flaw in the pads I am using for the Sony V6 headphones.. When I increase the clamping force of the V6 with my hands the annoying sibilance and heights decrease dramatically..  ...

Hi guys.   Has anyone ever tried fitting alternative pads on these headphones?

Found a solution.    Wrap the cord around a mug using tape to tape the kinks especially and making sure the cord is in contact with the mug completely..   Fill mug with hot water from kettle.    Allow the water inside to cool to room temperature.      I did it and it worked...

I have got the same problem. Name is also Mark lol.. But yea the headphones are almost unusable due to the stupid chords. Suggestions would be nice.

I see your point. Ok np.. Gonna get me a pair of the atrios in a couple days. I'm sold on them lol..     I can try to compare the Atrios and the S4s but i'm probably not the best person to ask cuz im still pretty amateur.. But will let u know and do the best i can . Take care  

So i was looking for a comparison between the S4s and the Atrios lol.. and this post showed up... lol..   Hey Nav. Really think u ought to give the sony hybrids a try. For me the seal is alot better than  the one i get with the klipsch tips and they are pretty comfy as well..   might...

That's great news then. I get a perfect seal with the klipsch mediums and they are super comfy. I considered getting the Sony Hybrids but after using the klipsch tips i honestly don't think i'll find anything better for my ear canals because the fit is near perfect.   Thanks alot man. Any...

I tried them recently on the monster lil jamz. They fit but the cylindrical region in the monster is thicker than the S4. So the silicone has to expand further. Does anyone know if that can possible cause the tips to tear over time?    

Hey guys. I've got a really question about the klipsch s4 tips.   I got a monster lil jamz headphones for free recently but, bought the supertips for em and i've gotta say they are pretty uncomfortable for extended periods of use.. I tried out the klipsch S4 tips and they were really really...
