Sound like most trains at rush hour! ;) :p

Unfortunately already got plans on Saturday, so can't swing it from Kansai - but let us know if there are more :) Cheers!

Ditto. I love my Momentum's, but wireless and being able to fold them, with a smaller case would make them that much sweeter. And, here I was thinking about buying a completely different pair of headphones, which is why I started dropping back by here again.

I hope this wasn't anybody on here...

I wanted to say thank you for all your advice in helping me purchase my headphones. I ended up going with the Momentum's in the end. I tried countless pairs of cans and spent hours comparing and contrasting them but just liked these the best overall in the end. I can say I now understand that...

One thing that I didn't notice on this thread was how well the Momentum's perform on an airplane. I'm sure people have used them on a plane, so what did you think? How was the sound level? How well did they block the background noise (and I understand they're not NC)?

Thank you for all the feedback! I'm still lurking and searching for what I want. I've found the Focal Spirit and am going to listen to those this week as well. I can only afford one pair so I'm taking my time, and unfortunately as I've said before, can't return things within a month here so I'm...

Traffic still isn't as bad as out here or in many of the major east coast cities! Besides, everybody is on island time, the only people in a hurry are the tourist!

I love the Hawaii Kai and Kaneohe area, got mates out there. We spent a week there in August and two on Maui...place sure is paradise isn't it! I bet you just hate living there!

Anybody in Kansai???

Mililani boy myself, but have skipped across the pond to Japan. Was just back last summer and man how have things changed there...sorry a bit off topic.

So much to learn and understand, but I'm really enjoying listening to different types of headphones. There doesn't seem to be a one quiver headphone so this might take a while!

Slashfury, thank you - I'll give em a try this weekend. I have seen those at Yodobashi.   Kraken, I'll do a search on their reviews and see what I come up with.   Cheers!!

Kraken, I have had them some old Bose pair and while I don't mind them, for long listenings I prefer over ear. What I do love about IEM's are their portability. Magic on that front, and I have tried a few but they're not on my radar right now. Since you mentioned them, what two or three pairs...

I'm in Kansai and would love to know if there are any shows this way. I don't know if y'all will see this thread or not, but would love to attend some shows and try different headphones. Information in English or Japanese is fine. Cheers!

Thanks again davidsh, heading back to the store to listen and try and decide what to buy...so much fun listening to different phones! :)

davidsh, just out of curiosity what don't you like about it? I haven't made up my mind either way and am going to go back again today after work and listen some more to both. I think they both sound incredible, but I'm not sure what I'm after so I'd like to listen some more. I think I'd also...

Sorry to jump in on this thread with a noob question, bit I'm hoping to understand what I'm hearing instead because I've never articulated this before. Went back to yodobashi camera the other day and sat down for a half our each with the two headphones and what I originally thought is that the...

Sorry for the late response! Thank you for your help, too! I have tried all of the headphones above except the HP50, haven't found it yet. Like many others I have nailed down my choices to the Momentum and P7. Biggest problem is the P7 is 450 out here on amazon and 500 in the stores. I'd almost...

Hey everybody! I have been lurking for the last two months almost and finally decided to take the plunge and sign up. I hope that I have read enough to understand, at least somewhat vaguely, all the terminology and concepts behind headphones as I am also a complete noob at this, so I am hoping...
