I'm in the market for a new pair of headphones.  They've got to be closed (and sealed.  No sound leakage allowed), circumaural, and they need to sound great straight out of a mobile phone and laptop.   I have tried a number, and some sounded pretty good while not really being what I'm looking...

I know each headphone has their own respective thread(s), but I thought it made sense to start a new one with my specific question.  Feel free to publicly admonish me if you think I'm wrong :-)   So, I'm turning 30 here in a couple weeks and want a nice set of headphones.  I went to the local...

Hi All.  Up until recently, I was pretty happy with my headphones setup.  I have a pair of "modded" Senn HD555's (supposedly turning them into 595 replicas), which I've been pretty happy with.  Sound is good, comfort is pretty phenomenal, and they don't necessarily require external amping to...

Another one of *those* threads I'm afraid. But you all love talking about headphones, so I hope you don't mind. A brief description of what I'm looking for: I'm looking for either a full-size or on-ear headphone to use mostly via direct hookup to my Asus Xonar DX sound card, but will also...

Does anybody have any experience with these phones? I'm looking at/thinking about getting another pair of IEM's to replace my Shure E2C, which I have never been happy with. And I realize the retail on the Shures was twice as much as these Denons, but I'd like to think that technology has...

I'm looking for a decent in-ear headphone to replace my Shure e2c that I've had for a number of years. I was never terribly thrilled with the sound of the Shure, but they do provide very good isolation which I did like, and they were reasonably comfortable. I found the bass very lacking, the...

So ( for purely scientific reasoning) I was listening to "Ayo Technology" (by 50 Cent) yesterday at the iTunes store on my Senn. HD 595 headphones, and the bass hits had a very noticeable amount of distortion. I'm still sort of in the process of determining whether to keep them or not, and this...

I was listening to my pair of 497's last night, then put them down for a minute. Putting them back on surprised me in that the right channel was getting no signal. So I looked at the cable, and there was some exposed copper (maybe I pulled on them too hard??). What are my options? There is...

Okay all you Sennheiser gurus, I need some help. I have a pair of the HD 497's, and love the sound. Honestly, it's perfect. For everything. Hooked up to a receiver, computer, iPod...anything sounds phenomenal coming out of these (my opinion, of course). I've tried the HD 595, and preferred...
