Oh, sorry, in your signature it shows those - I thought those are the headphones you own.

I'm always happy to see new posts to old threads - can't stand it when people complain about that. Nice information. WOW those Mr. Speakers pads are crazy expensive for just pads! How do they sound compared to your AKG K340 and Sony MDR-V6 headphones?

Oh, so they're even cheaper and in stock at Amazon.com - $95:   http://www.amazon.com/Monster-Adidas-Originals-Headphones-Black-128554/dp/B00KVP5KY0/   http://www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&page=1&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Aadidas%20headphones

  Sorry, those deals run out fast I guess.  When I first looked they were in stock, but I didn't buy a pair in time myself.  If I see them cheap again I'll post.  I think it was at Staples.  They seem to have the Green/White color for $125 at the moment.

I'm trying it because I want digital correction for my headphones system wide, not just in one music player.  I've the Sonarworks (Headphone correction) .VST plugin correction for a couple of my headphones using a VST wrapper with Foobar2000 and I really want a way to just apply it on a...

Well, when you edit your profile there's a "Headphone Inventory" section :)  I do see the "Lists" option at the bottom, but I expected it should be there in your profile details directly, and it is.  Not sure if it was always there or not.

AKG K340   At least 20 years old?       I also have some little red foam pad AIWA "walk man" type headphones from around 1984, and some cheap JVC full size headphones from ~ 1990.   I mostly use my ATH-M50 but just ordered a pair of Sony 7506 so I can have some with less bass...

Steak, thank you much for your informative direct comparison between the two models.  I read and read and read reviews online and had narrowed my choice down to a few options including the ATH-M50 and Sony MDR some time more than a year ago.  I ended up getting the ATH-M50 and like them fairly...

Well, I see that today they're only $99 - haven't found a review yet however, will keep looking...

I have two pairs of basically the same headphone except one has pleather pads and the other has velour pads.   I know people have said that the velour pads give you a little less bass, and make the headphones sound a little more like "open" headphones, and reduce noise isolation.   But the...

So, I've lurked around here for a while and posted here and there a little.   I got a new pair of headphones today and the first thing I want to do is add it to my "list of gear" on my profile.     But, I don't see where to do that so I'm confused.     There should be a section under my...

I just ordered some of these headphones and will see if I can find some other pads to fit...  I do have a pair of Sony MDR-V6 replacement pads I can check (though they are not the velour ones).

Quote:   I would absolutely LOVE it if somebody switched the drivers between AD500 & AD700 and did a public listening test at a show somewhere: "We'd like you to listen to these two different headphones and gives us some feedback as to how the sound compares between them".   If you...

Quote: From a fresh 3rd party's perspective: he is not the one being a "prick" here.  Generally, if someone starts calling names in a thread...   It's actually a very good idea, particularly interesting given we have someone who has both these headphones.  I would very much like to know...

Quote:   The sound that comes off the back of the diaphragm bounces around and comes back through (to your ears) as distortion.  Damping material helps reduce that by absorbing some and may also reduce resonances in the cavity.  That undesired sound is one of the reasons some people...

pls delete duplicate post...

Quote:   Can anybody else confirm that opinion about the ATH-M50s?  I just read so many glowing reviews and recommendations for them, such as the "best headphones under $500" list by one website, etc.  Previously I had decided to go with the Sony MDR-V6 (only $59 on Amazon ATM).  But, it...

It makes me so happy every time I see another person that loves these speakers, as I'm the one who designed them while I worked with John at Ohm for a couple years. I think when they shine the most is if you listen to a "Holographic" recording made using microphones such as BS-3D microphone...
