I am also sold on the sz1000 first I will have to sell a pair of the cans I have already first as I have 3 expensive cans as it is with the ath-ws99 ath-pro700mk2 and a pair of beats studios which I never use, I also have a pair of ath ws55, I had and sold the ath m50 so as you can see Ive...

all I have is a fiio e17, I pretty much use the software eq and that to push the headphones and It seams like its doing an OK job maybe I should start looking into a better amp and what not I'm still relatively new to all this and I'm no audiophile and I'm not sure if I'm a bass head all I...

thank you  Ima end up getting a pair of the pro700mk2s believe it or not I won a pair of used ones on ebay a week or so ago for 85 usd and ended not buying them

oh I see your point on the price thing,  thanks for the advice one more thing I see the ath-pro700mk2 are on the list and are placed over both the m-100 and the ws99 would you recommend them over the 2

Hi great thread, I just wanted to say that along with thanks for making and updating such an informative thread and I wish I wouldve seen this thread before I bought the ath-ws99 If I could make one suggestion If you could add the price to your updated top 10 that would really make this thread...

true but heres another update on my repair they ended up sending me a brand new pair instead of a repair which is awesome only bad news is I have to burn them in again

sorry for the double post but this is more of an update audio technica fixed the loose earpiece problem for me for free as they said they fix these type of issues in or out of warranty for free I paid to have them shipped but they shipped them back at no cost to me. mind you the shipping is...

I ended up contacting audio technica and as it turns out they said they would fix it for free you just have to fill out the repair form and send them in I sent them in for repair yesterday I think I will end up having to pay return shipping but I will let you all know how it turns out

sorry for the double post

were you able to fix them, if so how did you get the earcup off without permanently damaging them. My right earcup is loose too and I want to fix them but when trying to follow your advice it seems like if I applied to much force I would break them.    

I have both and I must say you got extremely lucky. As to how the 55s compare to the 99s, the 99s are able to go much deeper and the all around sound quality is improved. That is not to say the 55s are a slouch to begin with. A couple other things I wanted to add, and this is purely my...

I use the fiio e17 with mine I tried just about all of the fiio except the e07 and e12 and the e17 is the best thus far

ah I mustve missed that thank you

I have yet to meet a happy skullcandy owner especially when it comes to those god awful crushers

hate to double post but does anyone have any recommendations for new ear pads for the ws99 these are to shallow

honesty I was a bit disappointed but after a bit of EQing  I see what these cans are designed for these are a nice set of headphones but I think I was looking for the pro700mk when i got these tho these are a pleasent surprise tho Im still looking... Def need to replace these ear pads...

I ended up joining headfi just to buy the ath-ws99 from a classified

I like hip hop so of course I want bass  but I also want the clarity to hear the other details of the song Im coming from the ath-m50s which were great but not quite enough bass not to say it wasnt good I just needed more

yeah I actually think I am one of those who just don't like things in my ear but I am open minded enough to concede that yes, that could be because I have never had a pair of decent,COMFORTABLE iem's I recently bought the ws99 in fact they haven't arrived yet but should in a day or two...

Quote: cks1000 I never understood why one would prefer iem's over fullsized headphones are the cks1000 just as loud and just as detailed as the ws99 how is the bass just curious being that Ive had 2 in ear type of phones one being the ibuds that came with my phone and neither could...

the skullcandy skullcrushers I know this horse is also glue but these are by far the worst way to throw your hard earned money away. If you want to buy these, just fold up the cash into airplanes and throw em off the hearest overpast or just burn it even.
