    Bought new headphones (Sennheiser hd 600), ears got damaged instantly (Tinnitus).

    sorry to hear that :S what you need is good isolation, buying open was the worst mistake, you need some good iems, like the shure 215 or the phillips fidelio s2, or if you can afford it the shure 846 or the akg k3003

    I got Sony mdr-x10, how does it compare to xb500 and jvc rx700 or similar bassy headphone? With FiiO e6 and e11

      I dont think t400 are good enough, they might be nice but the a500x look way better, dont go that low on price if you want something enjoiable  ...

    I got Sony mdr-x10, how does it compare to xb500 and jvc rx700 or similar bassy headphone? With FiiO e6 and e11

      Yeah Ive been reading about the A500Xs, they are what you are looking for, warm an full, but balanced, and at 98usd on amazon its a bargain. You should try the shure 440 though, they dont have that full warm sound, bet they are not cold either, they are prefectly balanced with rich mids, and...

    I got Sony mdr-x10, how does it compare to xb500 and jvc rx700 or similar bassy headphone? With FiiO e6 and e11

    I dont mean you should go for totally neutral headphones, what i want to say is that you should avoid anything that is too extreme, too bright or too bassy, audiotechnica ad700 for example are garbage headphones because they are overly sibilant, bright, harsh and have no bass whatsoever, and...

    I got Sony mdr-x10, how does it compare to xb500 and jvc rx700 or similar bassy headphone? With FiiO e6 and e11

      Shures are nearly perfect for the price, comfort, isolation and sound, but i think you would not like them, because they dont have that thump, yeah you can hear the bass clearly, but you cant feel the rumble, these cans are optimized for studio so they are very neutral and detailed. I think...

      that headphone is really horrible, the x10, it sounds muffled and congested, please, PLEASE, if you need a headphone always look for a neutral-ish headphone, with little coloration if you want, for that price a pair of sennheiser 449s would be 10 times better, its not neutral but it is better...

    Why are some headphones more expensive than others?

    a headphone is more expensive mainly because it has more enginering on it, and it is more expensive because it has a better magnet, higher quality voice coil or an exotic material on the diaphragm.   If you cant hear a diference between your earbuds and the shures is just because you dont have...

    Closed back over the ear headphones under 300$. Suggestions?

    You should check the sony MDR-1R, i bought them for my dad, they sound excellen from any source due to their low impedance and they are very comfortable, other options are the audiotechnica a900x, vmoda m100, beyerdynamic dt 770 32 ohm, sennheiser momentum, but i think the mdr-1r are better...

    Why the Sennheiser HD598s are considered the best headphones in the world. Sennheiser HD598 review.

    they are NOT bass lacking, they just have a weird impedance peak, in other words they are hard to drive

    $200 headphones for gaming (that are an upgrade over AT AD700)

      I dont think the denon reciver is capable enough, but, if you need something closed, without a mic and under 200 you should go with the audiotechnica a500x, or the shure srh 440, i would prefer the sony mdr 1r, is a bit more expensive but it is excellent in all aspects

    $200 headphones for gaming (that are an upgrade over AT AD700)

      you should try the sennheiser pc 350 se, it is closed, has a nice low end and is 182usd on amazon, the only problen is that it is hard to drive (150ohm), you need a proper dac/amp to get the best of it

    Schiit Magni Headphone Amplifier

    I think you should check your pc setup if you think it has "dirty" power. If you connect your DAC on a frontal port, on a pc with a cheap PSU and a cheap motheboard it wont work nicely, but if you have a decent 80plus psu with tight regulation (like a seasonic), a decent mid range motherboard...

    I know it is not THAT good, but for 25usd it is excellent, it sounds definitely better than the typical realtek 892. But the drivers, lol, the drivers suck, they made bioshock infinite crash and CS 1.6 sound distorted, until I updated to the unixonar drivers.

    Headphone Sightings 2

    I live on Colombia which being a 3rd world country is full of monkeys with 10usd chinese beats copies, I was on an electronic store and saw this beautiful pair of samson sr 840, I forced the owner to open them and let me try them on my ipod, they sounded nice and a little bit better than my hd...

    Review by 'wphantom' on item 'Asus XONAR DG CMI8786 Sound Card'

    This card is 25-30 usd only which is very inexpensive, and it is a noticeable improvement over my realtek 892 onboard sound, I only have some cheap Plantronics Gamecom 367, which sounded boring with the onboard sound, but after setting up the card they sounded more transparent and alive (for a...

    you shouldn't be using headphones while sleeping, i have been told that your brain doesnt get proper rest, when you sleep you need total silence and darkness
