Quote:   Cheers! Enjoy!

Just to chime in with my two cents -- I've owned both the AKG K550 and the Denon AH-D600. In terms of pure listening enjoyment, the Denon wins hands down. If you're going to use your iPhone and want a fun headphone that's super comfortable with tight bass and clear highs, it's hard to beat...

The DT880s are highly detailed headphones and tend towards a sparkly treble signature. Personally, I like them for rock and metal, but if you want really want bass, the DT770s might be a better fit among the Beyers.

For around 40 bucks, you might want to look at the VSonic GR02. I haven't heard them so I can't personally comment on the sound, but they've been pretty well-reviewed.   If you want a good cheapie set for under 15 bucks, might want to look at the Ultimate Ears 200. I use them when I travel...

The D600 is a very musical headphone. At first the bass is very strong (almost overpowering) but with about 40-50 hours of burn-in, it really starts to settle down. The mids are recessed a bit but the highs are clear. It's definitely not tuned to a "flat EQ" as the box reads, but it's a fun...

In addition to asgoiv's suggestions, you also might want to check out the Denon AH-D600.

The Fiio E6 is a small portable amp with two levels of bass boost. You plug it directly into your iPhone's headphone jack. It costs around $25 or so.

You might want to take a look at Redco Audio as well. They are very reasonably priced and will make you custom cables. They are located in Connecticut.

Denon AH-D600 has all the cables you're looking for. Also you could get an AKG K702/Q701 and replace the detachable mini XLR cable with a shorter one with a mic. I've seen those cables on ebay but have no idea about their sound/durability/reliability.   Both of these headphones have very...

I haven't heard them yet, but you can usually find the MEElectronics A161P under $100.

Quote:   Thanks for the response Tyll!   I have to admit, after reading your extremely comprehensive article on the changes Denon made between their original AH-Dx000 headphones and the 2012 versions, I kind of wondered if it was possible Denon did something similar and tweaked the...

Ok guys, not trying to kick up trouble here since the D600s are such a polarizing headphone but I gotta ask:   What is Tyll talking about in this quote:     I read Innerfidelity and greatly trust Tyll's experience and reviews, but this is just not my experience with the D600. To my...

1. Sennheiser HD600 - most natural sounding headphone I've heard 2. Beyer DT880 600 ohms - super detailed and revealing, probably tied for my favorite with HD600 actually 3. Denon D600 - extremely comfortable and fun to listen to, surprisingly well-controlled, tight bass and great clarity...

You also might want to give Chesky's Ultimate Demonstration Disc a listen and compare with different headphones.

If it's in your price range, it seems like the M80 would be a good choice for what you're looking for.

I agree with andaca, you might want to look into the Sennheiser HD439. Best Buy was selling them for less than $50 recently, if you live near one you might want to check to see if they have these in stock.   The HD439s are closed back headphones, come with two detachable cables (one long...

Email sent. Just reviewed an item on the site. Thanks!

Ok guys, this is my first post here, so take it easy on me.   I've had the D600 now for about 3 months and I have to admit that I absolutely love them. I currently also own the Sennheiser HD600 and HD439 and the DT880 (600ohms), so that's the point of view my ears are coming from. I've owned...
