Thanks for the quick response. 

Not sure if its been covered here but I just ordered the blue colored ones; is the aluminum anodized or painted? if they are anodized I might just throw them in a coffee can with some oven cleaner removing the blue color and bring them to silver & then polish and clear spray them.    I emailed...

I bought the M100, loved the fit/finish but was dissapointed with the sound as it seemed muddy sounding to me. I listen to mostly rock and metal with some pop/acoustic style music. I don't need thick heavy bass but quick hitting bass would be good. I need the vocals and intruments to be clear...

Thanks so much for your detailed response!  I will definitely give these a try for a few weeks. I'm going to head to B&H and try a few others out.  Well, as far as money not being a thing I think under $500 is ideal.  Will the XL pads change the sound at all, or just comfort?   as for the...

Ok, so I probably made the wrong decision purchasing these or I'm not allowing enough burn in time.    I listen to a lot of rock/metal with some rap/pop here and there, almost no electronic.    I have been listening to the band A Day To Remember and it sounds terrible in my opinion. Granted...

Thanks for your input. I went and ordered the Flux from Amazon since I wanted to lock in on the price of $25 and I can still search since they aren't shipping yet (not in stock). $25 seems like a good price.  If I end up getting something else I can cancel these or keep them and use them with...

First, This is one of the best lists I have seen, thank you very much.    I have looked over this list many times but I am still having trouble finding the "best" IEM for me. I currently use some cheap Panasonic RPHJE120K which I like but the quality isn't really there. I also have the...

  Thanks for the information. I will look into that.  To be completely honest, I'm not too knowledgeable about the chips and such so I'll assume that the 15.32 is better in that regard. 

Thanks for the reply, I was just about to update my post as I thoroughly enjoy the HD650 better. I will unload the DT880's.   Without reading too much into the reviews, what sort of improvement will the Audio-GD bring over my current set up?   Thanks again.

Hi everyone.  I currently have the following: FIIO E09 / E17 combo HD650   I really like the 880s but I feel like they lack a bit of bass (is this just a problem w/ open cans?).   I just received the HD650's direct from Sennhesier for $296 (price is the only reason I bit, they had a...

ahh, didn't read back, just figured I'd post it. 

For those looking: NEW for $272 (+tax if your state applies) directly from Sennheiser  http://slickdeals.net/f/6465062-sennheiser-hd-650-headphones-272-free-shipping?   I ordered them, I currently have the DT880's.   I have the FIIO E17/09 combo, will the HD650's do well with that setup or...

DT880 pro for $209 ***( I bought these with an offer of $200.00)*** http://www.ebay.com/itm/Beyerdynamic-DT-880-Pro-Semi-Open-Dynamic-Studio-Headphones-250-OHMS-dt-880-/271195960275?pt=US_DJ_Monitoring_Headphones&hash=item3f2489f3d3   Good seller, bought a new Fostex T50RP that I am using...

Skull Candy FMJ (only paid $10 brand new) but I like the cheap Monoprice earbuds better.    V-Moda crossfades, way too bass heavy for me. Might work for some people but I like hearing the highs and not just all bass. 

Quote: Make sure to try the Senns & Grados together, very different in my opinion. I am a big Senn fan and I couldn't get over the harshness of the Grado's. 

Today I went to B&H to demo some headphones, glad I did.    The V-Moda M80's sounded great, if they would only fit on my head. Couldn't get the cups low enough to sit properly on my ears (I have a normal head!).    The Grado's were extremely too harsh, even if I put the treble down low...

Quote: I am almost positive that they are the same headphone but differently styled *one has a tighter clamping factor & a coiled cable. If anything I think the pro would be worse on you due to more pressure on your ears. 

Quote: You don't think the V-Moda's are stylish? They have very good build quality. 

do you plan on listening mainly at home or want portable as well? prefer open or closed? if you like bass I personally would recommend something by V-Moda but I'm no audiophile.   I ordered some M50's, I want to see how they are, I will be doing the removable cable mod.    P.S...

Quote: Thank you for your response. 

trying to search through all these replies.    Just ordered the T50RP's of eBay now I need the parts to mod.  Anyone know the best sources to get the stuff needed?  seems like  a waste to buy large amounts when only small amounts are needed to mod (i.e. dynamat)

I was going to say, that sounded like it would be a track from a video game!   and Thumbs up to the Devil Driver fan.

I think I am going to go with the 250pro's as I don't think my E17 (w/ or w/o E9) will really do the 600's justice. Plus it seems that there isnt too much difference between the two in regards to overall sound quality. 

Quote: Thanks for your response. I will give the E17 + E9 a try.
