I do not know much about doing anything "myself" but I'd surely be interested in coming out to see what you guys have/do, always fascinated by electrical worksmanship!

i saw them on their website and they look interesting, yet no one talks about them...

wait? this isnt a good deal? im so confused.

wow that wireless option sounds really cool. i might have to pick up another pair (i lost my first ones in a week )

did you decide yet NDS? I am interested in what you pick!

are the nobs meant to be fiddled with? interesting...

this seems like fun, ill join in.. too!

Lucky man, my college dorm doesn't have an AC :/. I must live with fans in a ridiculously hot building :/... Haha.

I, too, am interested in the sound leakage on the DT 880's '05 Edition... Anyone got a hint for us?

This might be futile seeing as this thread as gone to the side of the Philips, but I do own a pair of Sennheiser 595's and I recommend you not purchasing them with such a price discrepancy. Spending that much for them really begs the question of not spending more to buy even better, because I do...

Thanks arteom. I was wondering, have you ever heard both the 250 ohm 880's and the 600 ohm 80's which you have? I would love a comparison.

Maybe I am blind or stupid (most likely both but I digress)... What are the impedance on these phones? Also if you can answer that, do you know what the ohms on the 770 are as well? Thanks.

In listening to both my DT770's and my Senn 595's with a cMoy Amp (Sorry for crappy amp I plan to upgrade to a Little Dot MKIII or MKIVSE within the next few months) I realize I want a more analytical headphone and a less, "I can blast music into your ears and you'll enjoy it" headphone. I...

I don't ahve any personal experience with the ATH-A700's but from reading some of the impressions here I think they are the most favored sub-$200 dollar closed headphones out there. I hear the A900 also improves on this quality and for 219.99 its not terribly more expensive. I am seriously in a...

I hear the HD 650's are an excellent investment, but that it really begins to shine when it is recabled, so that might add on to the cost (I believe they can be had for around 350 these days) but you can do that later on when you want to increase the value that they have to you.. I would...

I might not be the best source of information because I am by no means an expert. However, I love my DT 770 Pro's 80 ohm version. My major drawback from usage ,sadly, is the fact that I cannot get the volume up high enough to really feel the music as much as I want. I do love'em though...

Wow, thanks for all the responses guys. digger945- If I am going to go woody, I think I might go darth beyering on my 770's within the next few months. fatcat28037- I, for some inexplicable reason, do not trust Sony and their headphones, I've had unpleasant experiences with their...

Sigh, but they are so unsightly to me! :P I just bought a BSG cMoy amp on eBay (my first true foray into the headphone amp world haha) so I guess I have a "portable amp" now. DT 880, anyone can comment on noise leakage? :? Thanks again, guys and gals.

donunus Thanks for the suggestions, after looking at what you suggested, im going to be superficial and say I prefer the look of a Denon AH-D2000 or beyerdynamic DT 880. QQQ Thanks for the suggestion, I think I might follow up on it... fraseyboy In actuality, I already have Shure E3g's...

I have an open headphone (Sennheiser HD 595) and a closed headphone (beyerdynamic DT770/80) but I want a new closed headphone to use whenever I am in transit (one and a half train rides) and when I am in class not paying attention to professors . I do not know what my ceiling is exactly for the...
