    Sony 7520 vs cd900st?

    I prize resolution, and love studio accurate headphones ala the etymotic er4. I've also noticed that Sony makes some of the most underrated headphones on the market. I was looking at these two models for my fullsized headphone, but there's hardly any info on them. Certainly not enough to get a...

    Any reason why Reference Grade interfaces like RME, Focusrite, Lynx are ignored?

    Professional engineers and music producers always throw around names like RME, Echo, and Apogee when talking about converters or DACs. While on Head-Fi, much of discussion is around small niche companies like Audio-GD, Schiit, and Burson.   Why is it that these interfaces and converters are...

    Why Aren't the Sony 7550 as popular as the EX1000?

    I've known about the EX1000 for years now, but only stumbled upon the 7550 after an erroneous click on a certain website. This wayward click brought me to the 7550's FR graph, and I was surprised at how neutral this random IEM seemed.   Fast forward to now, and I've ended up buying the 7550...

    Sony 7550 vs Etymotic ER4?

    Been looking to replace my old old Etys. 7550s look like they might fit the bill. How would you compare their sound signatures?

    Full Size Headphones Similar to the Etymotic ER4

    To date I haven't heard a purer representation of "audiophile quality" sound than through my Etymonics which I bought a decade ago.   The treble is inoffensive, yet it sparkles and brings out every single detail. The full-size cans I have listened to elevate the higher frequencies to...

    To anyone having issues with the Audio Technica wing system.

        It's that easy. I would have assumed people would be able to figure out something so obvious, but I always read complaints about the wing system. I'm sure you could make it prettier if you wanted to.   After this "mod" they are one of the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn...

    Yamaha PRO Headphones.

    Has anyone tried these yet? I know they look a bit like Beats, but Yamaha is known for creating the most legendary studio monitors in the world: the NS10. Their IEMs have a very strong following as well. I'm curious to see if their expertise translates to full size headphones.      ...

    Benchmark DAC-1 powering monitors and headphones?

    I'm on the verge of buying the DAC-1, but was wondering if it would run well with monitors and headphones plugged in simultaneously. My main concern is blowing sensitive headphones like the D2000 on accident when turning up the volume for the monitors. Does the volume control both the Headphone...

    Best Instrument Separation and Imaging.

    After ending my IEM search, I'm going to take another shot at looking for some full sized cans. What headphones are best at separating instruments, imaging, and detail? Which sets make it easy to pick out individual instruments, and imagine specific notes all while hearing small details? And I'd...

    HD600 Transportable Rig? (DACport/O2? Burson HA160DS? MSII/Dynalo?)

      For the next year or so, I will be traveling frequently so I wanted to create a relatively transportable rig with HD600s and my laptop. I will be using the setup to listen to music of course, and also to produce music. Therefore I'm looking for a a very transparent setup with little...

    Eartips for ER4p?

    I know there are probably a lot of threads on this, but all the ones that came up in the search basically suggested the Shure olives. I have the Shure olives and want something a bit more comfortable.   I had to roll the olives pretty tightly for them to fit, so I think my ear canals may be...

    Future Sonic Atrio Vs. Yamaha EPH-100

    How do these two IEMs compare? I'm going to buy FX700s in a couple of months when I visit Japan, but I need a new pair of IEMs to keep me occupied until then. Right now I have ER4Ps, and though I love their amount of detail, their lack of bass keeps me unsatisfied. Some people have suggested...

    IEMs similar to the ER4Ps, but with bass?

    I've had my ER4Ps for almost a decade now. They've served me well. But I've always wanted a little more bass. Back then, there were only a few options for us head-fiers. Now, it seems like there are more IEMs than headphones, and I don't know where to start.   So what I'm looking for is a...

    D2000 with Recessed Highs.

    I just got some D2000s, and was absolutely enjoying them until I listened to Flying Lotus' Cosmogramma tonight. For some reason the high frequencies were bugging the **** out of me. And every album after that, I couldn't stop thinking about the piercing highs. I'll listen to them a little more...

    Need amp to do what it's supposed to do: Amplify.

    I don't need coloration, synergy, or any amps that cost more than my headphones. I just need an amp that will power whatever I throw at it, and allow the headphones to sound how they were meant to sound. Not asking for much.   Right now I'm running some D2000s and Q40s unamped, but I'm...

    Q40s vs. XB500s. Need BASS.

    I've currently got some XB500s, but don't find them too portable. I throw them in my bag a lot, and the pillowy pads just seem way too malleable. I've continued to search for some portable basshead cans, and the Q40s seem to fit the bill quite well.   The sound I prefer is a deep soundstage...

    D2000s vs DT770s.

    How would you guys compare the two? In particular, how would you compare the sub bass and bass in general, and the sound stage, detail, and instrument separation? Which one gives a more satisfying sub bass rumble? I'm pretty determined to buy one of these two, and have read a lot of threads...

    XB500s with Soundstage.

    ...And instrument detail.   Hi guys. I recently bought Sony XB1000s and XB500s, but I'm looking fair a pair of cans that will better suit me. I loved the presentation of the XB1000s, but need more portable headphones, and these definitely are not portable. I thought the XB500s would be good...
