Hi, could someone recommend me a headphone w/ more bass impact than the AKG Quincy Jones Q460. I really like the bass impact on the q460 and I also like that the treble is really soft/ the complete opposite of harsh. What I dislike about the Q460 is the mids, they sound boxy/congested.    So...

Hey all, bit of a newb here.   I have a pair of K701, Q460 and some older 240's. I have recently pre ordered a Pico Power for them.   I have been doing a little reading and looking around the net and have found out that AKG have shifted alot of their manufacturing to China. I was...

I'm thinking about buying a on-the-way headphone/IEM. So far the best headphone I've owned is a AKG Q460, but I'm thinking about taking a step forward. Either a portable headphone (and it has to be NOT bulky, thus "portable") or an in-ear is fine, what I'm more interested in is music quality. I...

I picked up a pair of P5s and I have to say that I'm disappointed in their lack of clarity in comparison to my K550s. I realize that it's stupid to compare the P5s to the 550s. Nonetheless, I want as much clarity out of portable headphones that I can get for under 300 dollars.    I ask about...

Greetings from Italy, here's the situation. I always use headhpones while at home and using my computer. I plug them in the headphone out of an M-Audio Fast Track USB external audio card. . I use them for listening to music and more importantly to monitor myself while playing along songs/...

So I was a music lover for several years but never an audiophile due to both time and financial reasons. The best headphone I've owned by now is my AKG Q460. However, now that I've saved some money, I'm considering taking a step forward and purchase a hi-fi headphone. I've done some research...
