There's a person on ebay selling Ohrpolster earpads for the HD25-1. HD25 series Sennheiser ear pad pair (Ohrpolster, HD 25) - eBay (item 330232819789 end time May-07-08 20:46:45 PDT) I've never heard of ohrpolster, don't know what it is. But I love the feel of pleather, the only problem is...

I've had my eye on the Denon 2000 for some time now, and was wondering... how does it compare to the HD25-1 in SQ??? Is it a Huge improvement?

Is the D2000 considered an upgrade from the HD25-1?? How does it compare to the ESW9 and the HFI-780?? just looking around, thanks!

Can the Total Airhead drive the HD580 to atleast 85% of its potential??

I didn't hear a difference when I modded the HD25-1 stock cable to the HD650 cable. In a blind test, I actually found that I prefered the stock cable. what's up with this?? Because the HD25-1 is my main set of cans, I was really hoping the mod would improve the sound noticeably... but to no...

For the past few months I've been here, I've read more than my share of topics in which people say "the **** is good, but amazing when amped" or "the **** sounds extraordinary, but will sound flat and uninspiring when unamped." Truth is, for the average user, there isn't a really big difference...

Price is no obstacle.... I was wondering, what is the best CLOSED portable (can function >90% without an amp) headphones known??

I've heard great things about both, but amazing things about the PK1. I was wondering, people say that it requires an amp, but I'm really wondering if it does to preform well, My HD25-1 surely doesn't. In all honesty, what sounds better?? PK2 or PK1 both unamped???

I don't know if it's because I have insensitive ears, but i really can't tell the difference between the HD25-1 amped and unamped. (using Total Airhead) OK, I mean I can tell an EXTREMELY marginal difference... but in a blind test, I'll probably only barely recognize the amped HD25-1 70% of the...

THe SQ of piano music through the HD25-1, for me, leaves much much to be desired. I just don't feel the subtle dissipating sound that piano music needs. The HD25-1 just seem to me to be too STRONG of a headphone to be relaxing. Does anyone know how the Yuin PK2 measures up to the HD25-1, and...

I know that they discontinued the HD580 line, and brought the HD600 (I think...) I also heard that they use the same drivers.... so are they basically identical headphones with a different head strap??

Since I bought my HD25-1s, I've replaced the muffs with Velour and loved them. But recently I decided to try the Pleather for a week... and I must say that they actually feel better. I don't know why, but pleather just feels better to me on my head. especially when they soften after a week...

I was wondering what people thought about the Yuin PK2.... I don't know if its because i grew up listening with earbuds, or their transparent portability, but I've always loved earbuds. I heard these were the best choice for unamped earbuds? I don't have a headamp, so the PK1 is out of the...

It wasn't too long ago that I was debating whether to buy my brother a PX100 or a SR60 as a gift. i decided to give him the PX100, and he's loved them ever since. i was wondering though... Are the SR80 a huge improvement from the PX100? I'm just wondering... for future gift ideas

I listen to a lot of piano and classical music, as well as other soft rock while studying in the library. I really don't care about isolation, as long as the cans don't leak... I also don't care about comfort as long as they sound great. I have a pair of HD25-1s right now, and love...

I really need closed headphones in my life, and I just love the HD25-1s I own. But I was wondering, where is the next level of closed headphones?? Has anyone tried The Ultrasone HFI 780 and the Audio Technica ESW9??? does anyone know if they're a significant SQ improvement over the HD25-1??

I'm looking for a great portable closed set of headphones for around $350 or less. I need them to be portable as I'm never around the house, but am willing to carry an amp around. I need them to be closed as I work in the library often (isolation is not important, leakage is). I usually...

I was thinking about buying the HD650 sometime in the near future, but know that I'll have to buy an amp for it. I have a total airhead amp right now, and was wondering if it would be enough to efficiently drive a HD650 "well??" If not, what other amps do you recommend for the HD650?? I...

I've been using the acoustic setting, and I love it. I used to use rock, which gave the instruments more detail, but killed the vocals.

Another one of these... A friend and I were talking about replacing cables on headphones, and he was pretty adamant on the idea that all cables were identical in the tonal qualities they offered. He also told me of that tests that were conducted in which some scientists proved that a coat...

A few of my friends assure me that burning in is a completely psychological process, but I'm convinced otherwise. do any hardcore audiophiles still believe that burning in is completely psychological?

I put the HD650 cables on them, and they sound fantastic. But when ever I take the cables out, I have to use considerable force. Is it supposed to be like that? I feel like I'm breaking them.

looking to buy some velour pads, but can't find them anywhere!! are there any US suppliers that sell the Sennheiser HD25 velour pads??

I'm just about to buy these babies, but am wondering, are the HD25 and HD25-1 the same things?? I'd hate to buy the wrong thing

I'm wondering if it is worth buying an amp for the HD25-1 How much does an amp improve its sound??? are the airhead amps from HR any good? I would like to avoid laying down another few $100 for a portable amp, but if it jumps the sound from a 8/10 to a 9.5/10 (a irrelevent scale to show my...
