Thanks warrenpinchi! Indeed I picked the Grado sr80x. I love them! I was curious about the famous grado sound and was kinda afraid they would be too bright, from what many reviews say. Not at all! A tiny little bit more bass would make them perfect, but I am completely happy with their sound...

Hi :D I'm looking for a set of openbacks, but, I would like them to be small, because I want them to use when I'm lying on bed (I like to listen to music for a while before sleep). I currently have a pair of HD598 that I use, but I constantly have to readjust them because they slip backwards...

I surely will, but it'll have to wait a while as I save some cash any suggestion for an amp? I've read they perform quite nice with the modi/magni.

After some days of use, I must say the first impression is gone. They have actually come to sound much better. Soon after I wrote last post, I tried to listen to the cans straight from a Samsung Galaxy Player. They sounded really low, definitely an amp is needed. I tried a Fiio E6, and they...

Hey guys! In the end I went for the Hifiman HE400. Got a cheap used pair (almost mint condition) in ebay.   Well... I just got it yesterday, so I've just listened for a short while. No issues at all with comfort, but I didn't feel the sound to be that great. As stated previously, I use a Fiio...

Whoa! so many oppinions in favor and against :) I've also checked for the Q701. They look like a nice option now that you mention they work good with the E10. Just makes the decision harder. I had not cosidered the dt880 cause I thought they were closed, and I prefer open. But I see now they...

Thank you very much bilditup1. I'm leaning to the HE400 very much (more now, thanks to your comment). A used he400 is within my budget, so I may go for it. I think I could even go for a new pair, but i have to think it through $$. I'll probably order the chosen one in the next few days. Thanks.

Yeah, the 558 are the cheapest, but I was wondering if I might go for the others. I thought it could be a good choice as I plan to go for an amp and a dac further this year.

Thanks for the reply. Mostly in a PC with a Fiio E10. I used to have a receiver, but it died months ago.

Hello guys, I'm looking to upgrade my current headphones and these three are the candidates.   What I love when listening to music is being able to follow individual instruments (specially the bass guitar) and being able to hear details, like the sound of cymbals (which sometimes are hidden...

Quote: Thank you very much, sir. I think I'm going for the 558.

Quote: I thought the Senn would have that bassy touch I'm trying to diminish. Are the 558 more neutral in that respect? Thanks for the quick answer.

Hey guys. Looking for recomendations, as all.   Here's a briefing of what I look for:   1. Design: Full size. I have a sennheiser hd 518 and I love it in terms of comfort. If the pads can be completely around the ear, it'd be fantastic. I've never experienced tightness with any...

Quote: Whoa, this thread is quite active.   All three have good reviews, and the superlux is very appealing with its price.Is the Shure SRH 440 somehow similar to the 840? if so, I could get it and if I like it, I guess I could save and buy the 840 in the future. Also, the semi-open...

Hi, ladies and gentlemen. I will ask for suggestions in here. I'm new to the world of cool sound and I'm looking for some headphones. I like several kinds of music, from classical to death metal, with a lot of stuff in between, but I mainly hear rock. I really love the usage of bass (I mean...

Hi, ladies and gentlemen. I will ask for suggestions in here. I'm looking for some headphones that allows me to listen to my music the way I like it. I'm new to this world of headphones and I like several kinds of music, from classical to death metal, with a lot of stuff in between, but I...

I had no luck with buying  these ones for a couple of reasons :( the good thing is that I could get a bigger budget and I can consider other stuff now. I aksed for help in another thread so I will check what comes up. Thanks anyway guys. Cheers.

Thanks guys, I've been checking thos options and they seem cool, I think I'll give a chance to those JVC.  Cheers   --Ralph.

Thank you Dnullify. I totally forgot to mention, I don't like in-ear or earbuds. I would prefer on-ear in the first place, or over ear in second. But I will check your suggestions anyway! thanks.

Hello. I'm Ralph, adn this is my first time in the forums. I'm also totally new to the high quality sound world. I had always listened to music with the headphones included by default with my players, as well as simple headphones I bought in the way, Some time ago, I finally decided to try...
