I can tell you that they are very good without an amp... However, someone in the thread mentioned being slightly disappointed with them, but completely changed his/her mind after pairing with a Fiio e11

Yes the M100s is more fun sounding than the M50. I prefer the M100s, but that is because I primarily listen to trance and hip hop, genres the M100s excel in. Like you said... The M50 is the best in value (referring to sound). It is the better well-rounded headphone of the two.    However I...

If I would have known this yesterday... Amazon deal of the Day LP's for 69.99 (yesterday).

Yea, I've been craving the 225i, but I am low on cash, so I ordered some new earpads for the sr80i... I heard they would make a good deal of difference.   http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006GCCO0/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Pro 900 it is.   edit: and I managed to score some used ones in mint condition for $270. If me no like... I should be able to sell them without a loss. I was very skeptical about ordering them. They seem to be one of the most mentioned headphone on this forum, with tons of mixed reviews...

I have the Grado SR80s and they are very good for the price and your genres. But based on your price range, I suggest the Grado SR225, which I have heard is a lot better than the SR80s. It is the headphone I would have bought, but did not have the money for at the time.

Hey guys, I am looking to buy a new pair of headphones, because my V-Moda M100s were stolen last week. For edm and hip-hop the M100s did pretty well. I loved their appearance and great build quality as well.   However, I am considering going a different route. I need a set of headphones that...

Hello, well my beloved M100s were stolen this week out of my backpack, so I am going to buy another set of headphones if I am unable to retrieve  them from whoever took them.   I loved the M100s because although many can claim that they are a bit overpriced for the sound, their unique...

I am not sure. I am pretty sure I have to return them broken or something... Unless you really try to physically destroy the M100s, I do not really understand how someone can break them, no matter how careless. So I am out of luck I guess.   How does the headband compare on the 3 models after...

Guys my shadow version V-Moda M100s were stolen yesterday... 1 freaking day after I ordered the XL Pads and the Boom Mic for my PS4.    I still have my AD700s for gaming, but I need to do the mic mod.   However I no longer have headphones for all the electronic music I listen to and I am...

Well I currently own a pair of Grado SR80s, which I primarily use for rock genres. I have my AD700s for classical music, anime, and gaming. I had my M100s for electronic (especially trance) and hip hop music.    So basically my M100s were my portable headphones that I took everywhere, but I...

In general they are amazing with electronic and rap music. But for other things like some metal, I have my sr80is

Bump. My life is complete. Vmoda m100s (rap&electronic genres), ath m50s, grado sr80i (rock/metal), ath ad400 (gaming&showsonline), Rocoo P, and cowon c2 w/ e11. What can I do next to enhance my at home musical experience?

  that image could be photoshopped, but those look like M50s. The reason it looks a bit different is caused by the bad lighting. In fact I have a pair of the white ones, but owned some black ones for like 3 years.

I already have vmoda m100 for electronic and rap music. I also have some ath m50s coming in soon. However, I need some good cans for post hardcore and other rock music. I'm willing to pay up to 200$. I've had the Sr 225 and Sr 80s recommended for these genres but am ñeleaning towards the sr80s...

Quote: Miceblue merely said that he was testing the mids of the m100s with the soundtracks in AC3. The fact that you've been a so called musician for '23 yrs', would probably make me want to think twice about your opinion on the sound of ANY headphones.   Also it's obvious that the mids...

Quote: The M80 has different kinds of base. I noticed songs that had had a lot of mid-high bass, had very very little base on the m100s compared to my m80s, but most hiphop and electronic music in general should be MUCH bassier on the m100s   Quote: I'm pretty sure I did not get a...

Guys. Where exactly was the tool to switch the shields? I don't think mine came in my package,

Quote: Depends what you listen to. The mids are quite recessed, which means that many genres will not sound great on them. I listen to everything so that sucks a bit for me, but I mostly listen to rap and electronic genres and they are AMAZING for those genres. The soundstage is WoW...

Finally received my Shadow version of the M100s today.. Yes, finally. Anyone that is seeking advice on whether to get these or not, I'll put it simple. Are they worth $300? Imo it depends on what you listen to. I listen to a wide variety music genres that fall under the electronic category...

@miceblue... Or anyone else I should have me m100s Tuesday and ill be using it mainly with my Rocoo P, and and occasionally on my HTC EVO 4G LTE. Anyway. What would you recommend more? The e7 or the zo2? Keep in mind that the Rocoo P is already amped.

Wow.. I still have not even had my headphones shipped. V-Moda marked mine as "shipped", because I bothered them about it, but they're still with V-Moda. At this rate, I expect to have them by mid January, damn..... should have went with amazon's lovely 2-3 day shipping, screw* the free...

I felt the same about the v moda m80s. I felt they had very little bass in certain music. People say these are "basshead" headphones, but I'm sure they'll be exactly what I'm looking for. At least that's my perspective. V-Modas finally got shipped out today!! I think I'll be like the last one to...

Thanks... I'll try to wait it out :(

What would you recommend more? The K167 or the m100s..... Obviously in aesthetics, the m100 is better, but in terms of sound.. I'm on the verge of canceling my pre-order, because it still does not get shipped. Maybe I'm being too impatient, but if I can get the k167 in 2 days, rather than wait 3...
