AKG K172HD
I actually just ordered a pair from Shop.ca, stating refurbished for $70. As I had a $40 Paypal thing with Shop.ca, I went for it. I can't find much on it, and I see a lot of K272 and 271 mentioned. Would the 172 just be an on-ear version of the the 272? I read that they are light on bass, but...- thepiper92

AKG K172 HD Repair Advice
I'll try to keep it short: The left speaker of my K172s is basically dead. Sound is way lower than the right one, and after some time it got even lower (I'm talking lower than any reasonable fix via signal levels). Opened up the headphones and checked all the cabling and impedance of the...- Lwerewolf

Sony mdr-v55 or AKG k172hd
Hi all, I'm buying my first semi-decent pair of headphones. I don't think I'll use them outdoors. I like lots of bass, but treble is more important to me. Due to budget, I'd narrowed it down to Sony mdr-v55 for $60CAD and AKG k172hd for $100CAD. Which pair sounds better in...- evilqwerty

Best Cans for $200 or Less?
Hello. I have read recently that IEMs can alter your ear canal in a way that you can lose how well you hear in one ear (or both). So, I think I'm switching to full-size headphones for my Samsung P3 (mp3 player), but unlike IEMs, I know little to nothing about what good cans there are...- EhteeUser
