Black/White M50s, K or Q 460s

Quote: Burger King... also known as Hungry Jacks in Aus. I love how 5 bucks gets you a burger, chips, and a sundae.

How about this... isolation and leakage are inversely proportional. Less isolation, more leakage. More isolation, less leakage.

The M50s may be a little overpriced now compared to other full sized headphones, but they still are solid performers. They probably still are one of the best portable headphones. Newbies generally look for bass and/or vocals, which the M50s do deliver. EDIT: I also have no idea why this thread...

I used to have these, the positioning was actually fairly good when set up correctly, apart from the lack of precision in the 11, 1, 5 and 7 oclock which seems to be due to DH. Sheer objective quality really wasn't great though. Is worth ~$80 imo.

The foam that goes past the core. The.. overhanging? pieces of it. The foam should end up being flush with the core after the trimming.     Quote: Have you tried changing the tips to something that reaches the second bend in your ear? I found my B2s to be incredibly shrill with stock tips.

I just made use of the equalizer in PowerAmp to further flatten to FR. Well, wow. Can't believe I haven't tried doing that earlier. These things really make me wonder what CIEMs sound like

I think you would want to stay well away from the HD25s for anything relaxing. I presume you're after headphones and not earphones? Fa-003 and their clones are generally good all rounders. Check this thread out, by the way. It may help if you're a big gamer...

Quote: Is your Galaxy S Voodoo'd? It's supposed to be one of the better phones for sound. Edit: sounds like a dumb question, I didn't read the previous posts

Amazing Spider man - 6/10. The Toby mcguire(sp?) ones were better

http://www.head-fi.org/t/593050/the-nameless-guide-to-pc-gaming-audio-with-binaural-headphone-surround-sound Nameless' (useful) guide explains a bit. There's also a link to vids that use CMSS 3D and DH.

Quote: Thanks for the input. I guess I'll just go with the ST/X.

I'm deciding between the TiHD and ST/X atm too. I'm kinda wary of the STX though, with people reporting beeping noise problems. Quote: So if you don't play older games, and only the newer ones (eg, BF3, CoD4->, L4D2, etc.) would the TiHD have any positional accuracy/immersion/soundstage...

Project X, 3/10. It's a "comedy", but I just found it boring, really.

Even if it was possible, I wouldn't do it anyways, because the (edit: internal) enclosures are most likely a different shape, changing the sound accordingly.

Convert to dollars, it's 18X pounds. I believe you need an adapter.

I suggest the Fa003 and its clones for movies and games. The M50s have an incredibly closed off soundstage, though there is some size to it. I haven't tried the 840s long enough to comment on those, and I've never tried the Dt 770s.

GR07s are excellent all rounders.

Outdoors: M50, easily. Indoors: I'm not sure, I've never tried the 558s. But from their description from reviews, HD558s may lack the energy that you might like in rock music.

Quote: The DeathAdder is one of the best if not THE best mouse out there when it comes to tracking, that's why so many people use it.

HD25s do all things rock very well. I haven't heard another head/earphone that has as much energy, or "PRaT".

So I just got these recently, and was starting to really like them with the smallest stock tips... until the right channel suddenly went quiet. So now the left is a lot louder than the right. Anybody have any idea what may have happened?   Edit: Chucked them in the fridge for a little bit...

If you want to change the card, grab an Essence ST/X or Titanium HD. For a usb dac&amp combo try the ODAC. I haven't got any experience with these, it's just what I've gathered from reading.

Quote: HD25s are more capable, but it doesn't mean he'll like them more than the Beats.
