Okay. Thread can be closed. Here's the result:   I bought the Sony EX1000. They had a lot of clarity but its sound was too sharp and harsh on the highs, which irritated me at a normal volume. Also, apparently I'm a basshead and these Sony's really had like 'no bass at all!'. The kick drum...

Thanks for all replies. Does anyone know the +db's of the JVC FX700's in terms of bass?

Quote: THanks a lot! How to read this graph? I think I need to read the first graph to get that value? How to read it?   Sorry for so many questions, but what's the +db's of bass of the  JVC HA-FX700?

Quote: okay thanks. What about the Monster Coppers vs Gold vs Miles davis in terms of +db's in bass?

Quote:   Quote: Where did you guys find this information?   And what are those values / bass for the Sennheiser IE80 and the Monsters?

Quote: These are my first 'quality in-ears'. I was previously using Creative $40 in-ears. But I'm a music producer and have monitors with a subwoofer. But yea, these Sony's really have no bass in my opinion.

I bought the Sony EX1000. I received them today but I think the quality is awful. There is like no bass at all and the highs are too sharp. In order to hear a tiny little bit of bass you have to turn up the volume so much that the highs become very dominating and annoying.    These are...

Okay here´s a thread update.   I was hesitating between the JVC FX700 or Sony EX1000 and decided to buy the Sony EX1000´s  because most people said they were slightly better than the JVC´s.       I received them today but I personally think the quality is awful. There is literally no...

okay I REALLY want to get the JVC FX700's but they're only available in Japan. Due to the strict customs in my country it will take very long until I get them AND I will have to pay A LOT of import costs/taxes AND I won't have warranty.   The Monster Turbine Coppers are available in my...

Left are the: - Monster Pro Copper - JVC FX700 - Westone 4     Hmm, how are the mids/highs from the JVC's compared to the Pro Coppers and Westone's? In terms of - crispy and clarity?  And is the separation/depth is good on the JVC's?   Which of those 3 would you recommend me...

okay,   Left are the: - Monster Pro Copper - JVC FX700 - Westone 4     The only thing that I should do now is listen to all 3 to experience the differences. Problem is that they only sell the Monsters in my country, not the others... I don't  think it's possible to buy all...

Quote: I know that the IE8's or IE80's  win in bass, but I also want sound clarity and instrument separation in the mids and highs.. I heard that the IE80's  are not very good in that... How are the Monster Pro Gold's with that?

Quote: How's the bass of the Westone 4's then? And how do they sound un-amped? Also, what do you mean by 'fun sounding' for the Turbine Golds? Can you also give me some more info about the Golds (how they sound unamped, and how they sound in bass/mids/highs in comparison to the Westones

This is my first post on this forum. I've read a lot already and it's a great place here but didn't really find a good answer/recommendation to the situation I have. So here you go! -------------------------------- I'm looking for a good IEM set at the moment. I have a home studio so I know...

Yea. Thanks for comments guys. I will go to a local store again (that has some more professional stuff), and listen to their headphones...

@WishMaker,  thank you so much for the reply. That really confirms that the Denon is better than the Beats. I'm gonna try the Denon D2000 in a local store!! Can't wait.

Ok. I searched for some information about the Denon D2000 and it seems to be a better headphone than the Beats Pro. At least - most people recommend the Denon over the Beats.   So that changed my mind a bit. I didn't listen to the Denons yet...  As we all know, the bass on the Beats...

Oke so I went to a local store, and listened to a few models. In my opinion, the MonsterBeats Pro  were far the best of all.   I tried the Bose Quietcomfort 15, beats studio,  and also some of the Sennheiser series what you guys where talking about above.   The Beats Pro were the best by far...

Thanks again for the comment. I think the best thing I can do is just go to a local store and listen to some headphones first. Also, to notice the difference between headphones going through an amp and headphones that don't need an amp. Thanks for the replies guys!!

Quote: Hmm.... I might consider that indeed... Can a mod move this topic to the 'portable headphone category'?   Ok. So I need a pair of mobile headphones, which are as good as (or better) than the Bose QC15.  I don't care about the noise cancelling, it's all about the sound for me. A...

okay, thanks for the reply :) What happens if I plug the Sennheiser HD600 into my iphone (without amp etc)? Will they just sound less good?   Because actually I was looking for headphones that sound great on PC, but I also want them to sound good on my ipod. I'll use them primarily for...

Quote: Thanks. Is the sound quality of these headphones similar to the Bose Quietcomfort ones? And what is a headphone amp and why do you need it / is it really necessary?

Quote: Pop, Rock  and maybe RnB  

I've a small head, so I prefer not having a HUGE headphone. I'm going to use it at home, but if you find some good mobile headphones, feel free to mention them as well.   I want to spend money on a dac or headphone amp.     I don't really know what the main difference is between a closed...
