I am looking for some IEM's that are not dependent of the fit to sound good. I bought some Meleec M6's for sleeping but found they way to fit dependent and I was constantly fiddling with them to make the sound good. I'm looking to spend around $40 and I like deep, impactful bass with neutral mids. 

Which would be more comfortable for sleeping? And they sound pretty much the same, right? At the low volumes I will be using them for I doubt it would matter much anyways.

My ears get a little tender after an hour or two of wearing my M50's. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm wondering if it's because I'm wearing them wrong or if the pads are just getting old.

I'm looking for some speakers to replace the terrible built-in speakers in my iMac. I'm not looking for audio heaven or anything here, just something that will provide at least SOME bass. I'm looking to spend under $50. Is there even a difference in quality between models at this price, or am I...

What are some bands you've seen that have a good live sound? The best I've heard was from Porcupine Tree and Radiohead. The worst probably being Tool, they were way too loud and the guitar and bass didn't separate well.

I've had some M50's for a few days and just started noticing a crackling noise on bass hits in the left ear cup. What could be causing this? I'm running them straight out of my imac right now, could that be the source? It always seems to be in the left ear and not in the right. Not sure why it...

I've been thinking, how many people prefer closed headphones to open ones based purely on the sound quality and with isolation set aside? Do you think it is reasonable to buy closed headphones even when one does not need isolation? If so, why?

Besides the obvious Beyer DT990, what are some open headphones with a good amount of bass? I find that open headphones often lack in the bass department, at least by my standards. I'm looking for open headphones with good bass because I'm interested in headphones with a lot of soundstage to give...

So I'm very close to purchasing the 780's, but I'm worried about how they will sound since I tried HFI-550's a while back and I didn't find necessarily amazing or anything. I thought that they had a very unnatural sound to them, everything just didn't sound right. And by unnatural I mean the...

I'm looking for a headphone to do mixing on but I'm not really sure what makes a good mixing headphone. I would assume a headphone that is very accurate and doesn't sound the same on every song. I'm interested in buying a Ultrasone 750 but I'm worried that it will be too colored for mixing. Any...

I just got these because I needed some cheap IEM's for the airplane. I'm listening to them and my first thought was that they are very muddy. Then I put on my KSC75's and it was a night and day difference. Made me realize why I've been using them for so long. Are there any mods out there that...

I've had a D2000 for some time now, but I'm starting to feel that they aren't quite 'fun' enough. Is it because it's a reference phone? Meaning maybe I'm just not an audiophile and I just like to enjoy the music, not think about it? The D2000 just doesn't excite me, I want to be amazed by the...

OK, let's settle this, once and for all! I've been contemplating far too long about this. Which of the above headphones would you suggest for my musical tastes? I listen to rock, metal, electronic, and some hip-hop as my main music, but I do listen to classical and jazz occasionally, though the...

I can't decide on which headphone I would like to purchase. I have about $400 to spend on an amp and headphone combo. The cheaper the headphone, the better the amp. I'll try my best to describe the headphone I want: -Tight bass that reaches low (not loose or boomy!) -On the dark side (maybe...

I'm pretty positive that the HD-650 is what I want. I own a cheaper, budget Senn (EH-150) and I really learned to like the Sennheiser signature sound. Also, all the descriptions of the HD-650 are exactly what I'm looking for. Problem is, though, that if I bought the HD-650, I would have to buy...

It's about time for a headphone upgrade, as I have had the Sennheiser eh-150's for about a year now. I listen mostly to electronica/trip-hop and some rock, so something with a little added bass but not too overwhelming. I don't have a headphone amp yet, but I will upgrade to one eventually. I...
