I used low power and high gain for some time and i quite liked it, but I ended up switching to high power and low gain, since I thought the it sounded more 'powerful' that way. Although I still think it's just my brain reasoning that it should sound better at higher power. Anyway, thanks! Will...

Here's the thing - I've been playing around with FiiO E11s power output switch (under the battery), and with the headphones I use, I don't really hear any difference between low/high power (maybe a slight one, but I'm thinking it's just my brain telling that it should work better on high). I use...

I'm using DJ 100's with the FiiO E11 amp. The bass seems quite good with the E11's bass booster turned on. I've heard that bass tends to get a bit softer after they get burnt-in (not all of them have to though). I've been using them only for a couple of days now, although they did sound quite...

I'm not from the US, and where I live (Latvia), both of them are sold only online, so I don't really have a chance to demo them.   Looks like I can get the Tony Bennett edition from amazon ( not sure if I want to wait 3-4 weeks until they arrive though :) ). Is it basically the same DJ 100's...

EDIT: Accidentally double posted. See post below. Sorry.

I'm having a bit of a struggle deciding between Koss DJ 100's and KRK KNS 6400's.   I listen mostly to rock, dubstep, electronic & ambient music. I've read tons of posts about these two, and I'm guessing DJ 100's would be better for this kind of music because of better mids & bass than...

Quote: I'm guessing you meant it as the device I plug my phones in? In that case PC & MacBook. Might use with HTC Desire from time to time, but with SkullCandy Ink'd ear-buds not the full sized phones. I prefer smaller and more compact devices when on the move, and I'm guessing an AMP...

Quote:   That should make the decision easier! Thank you! :)

Quote:   I'm from Latvia (Europe).  As for DT 770 - I mean whether they might be better suited for my music needs. I listen to various genres, but mostly it's rock (all kinds of it) & dubstep. As for bass - I can get by with not having really strong bass, if the phones provide a clear...

Quote:   I see. Ultrasone HiFi 780 look amazing, but unfortunately, it's quite hard to get them to where I live. What about Beyerdynamic DT 700s? 

Hey!   Thinking of getting new phones + AMP. At the moment leaning towards Sennheiser HD 518 + FiiO E11. I've also looked at Grado SR80i & Audio-Technica ATH-M50.   Mostly listening to Rock & Dubstep. Which of those phones would be most suited for that? Any alternatives are welcome...

So I've been looking to get decent headphones for some time now. At the moment I'm looking at Sennheiser HD 449, HD 518, HD 558.   I'm not really and audiophile or anything, so I don't really require the top notch tech (therefore, please don't tell me to save up and get something better...
