I agree with you, but then again, people buy all kinds of crap for status and aesthetics. Hell my friend dropped $2k for a MacBook Pro just because he thought it looked nice. To them, it's worth it. Quote:    

Any head-fi member who purchases Beats should be ashamed, there's an abundance of quality cans that will give you everything the beats have and more for much less.   That said, they ain't the worse thing to happen to audio. They are great headphones for lots of mainstream music.   No...

It's not the community that looks down on it, I would say it's people in general. It's just way too silly and high-tempo to be taken seriously.   Quote:    

I don't wanna put you down though, be a proud individual, like what you like and ****** what I think =)  

Wow, no offense, but I doubt most people drop that kinda money to hear "loli-core", if it's what you like that's fine, but I guess I agree with Morbid. Is everything with the suffix "-core" gonna be super high tempo, 4/4, and plain impossible to dance to?

What is loli-core? lol, its like there is a new genre every week.

They are a little out your defined price range but, save your pennies, they are worth it!

Check out the TMA-1, very tight and deep bass, equally powerful and defined mids, and slightly recessed highs. They are LOUD, like enough to feel the cups vibrate playing out an iPod/iPhone, but no distortion and very tight. Perfect for dubstep and any edm really.

Updated, also need to spam my post count up, got things to trade/sell =)

Quote: If you can post a link that would be great I've looked and looked and found nothing about TMA-1 mods on head-fi.  

Are you upgrading to the 4G?

Tell me more about "the Arrow" Quote:  

I'm blown away by how efficient the TMA-1 are. They don't need an amp at all but reviews such as http://www.head-fi.org/products/aiaiai-tma-1/reviews/4519(Which I agree with 99%) have me feeling like im missing out a little. What are your thoughts?

Quote: I've been listening to to them full blast ,via iPhone 4, and they sound amazing with edm. Seriously. With a proper seal, pressure placement, and full volume it becomes clear to me why they were designed for djs (Which I thought was ridiculous considering the fit I had before the...

Quote: That BS man, I don't see why they are taking so long... I'm actually in love right now. Now that the comfort issue is gone I plan on editing my OP and writing a review this week. I was also wondering how many hours you put into them and your volume settings, like how high/low as a...

Quote: This. This is exactly what my issue was. I say "was" because I managed to reshape the headband ,with rubber bands, to the shape of my skull. I'll post pics and thoughts in the days to come but so far it's been a HUGE difference. 

I wish there was an easier way...

If anyone knows of full-size ear pads that are TMA-1 compatible that would make me very happy:D

Great idea MT! That looks worth trying although I wish I could buy one. I'm not very good with the mods =(

Thanks MT, if I can't find a way to modify them to fit me then it looks like the FS forums is my best option. Hate you Paypal but experience has taught me that Amazon is a no-go :p

I don't blame you at all MT. I read the forums EXTENSIVELY before buying these and very few people complained of comfort issues. You were such a good sport that I couldn't bring myself to ask for a refund.

I'm looking through the forums for the Denon cans you suggested. And i've definitely heard of the ATH-M50, it's become an icon in the head-fi forums.

Suggested cans have to be comfortable and need to sound great with an iPhone, so low impedance!   

Hello fellow Head-Fiers!    I've had the AIAIAI TMA-1's for a few days now and while it was love at first sight once I actually moved in with them, and had a chance to spend some time together, things got really uncomfortable. I'll start by listing the good, followed by the ugly.   These...
