I prefer innerfidelity but headfonia has more stuff more often

Quote: Sounds right to me

Quote: MORE RECESSED?!?!?!? how is that possible, I can barley listen to the xb500 as it is.

Quote: +1 but I think I might pick them up just because I really like the look of them.

Quote: That's the xb600?

That's why I want someone else who really knows what there talking about to try them because my test was questionable.

has anyone else tried the xfactor ones?

price range?

I tried the xfactor ones today and I really did not like them, but I would like to try them again with my set up because the display was being played out of a sony tablet that did not like me very much, and one of the displays felt like the ear pads were broken.

do you really need noise cancelling?

Quote: Where did you hear that?  

Quote: I think the he500 are a class or two above the d2000

the fiio e11 sounds alright with the hd600/650 also.

Quote: The e17 sounds cleaner but the e11 has more power, with the hd600/650 the e17 sounds underpowered.

Quote: correct me if i'm wrong but are you basically saying that the o2/odac combo sounds boring? because that's what I think, I would take a fiio e17/e9 combo any day over it.

Quote: +1 Thanks for typing what I was too lazy to do.

Quote: make it sound like hd800s, the hd800 paired with a e17 sounds like a pair of hd600s without the low end punch.

Quote: I just tried this and I thought the e11 was better, the e17 sounds underpowered

Quote: WHAT!?!?! you get sound out of them but that's not using them nearly to there potential.

what are you driving them with.
