Hi. Im going to buy either the sennheiser 518 or 558. I have the money for the 558 but is it worth it? I tried both headphones and was very pleased but i couldnt compare them because they were at different stores. How do the monentum compare to these?

Hey all, I was wondering if there are any differences between the Jaycar rebrands and the HM5s. Also. How do these sum up to the XB700s? (Comfort, treble, bass, clarity, soundstage, isolation, ect....) Would either need to be amped from an iPhone 4S? If so, would a fiio e6 suffice? Thanks...

Looking for some advice on closed headphones.  My wife and I share a home office (3 feet apart), and I need something to drown out the little, distracting noises, so I would like something that is sealed well.  I listen to just about anything, music-wise, and appreciate decent sound.  I have...

I recently ordered a pair of jaycar fa-003s, and I love the sound of them, but I have an issue. Unless I hold it in place, its extremely hard for me to keep the right side's jack in place. This is especially a problem since I'm using these for gaming too.   Does anyone have a quickfix for...

Some points :   A closed back comfy headphones under $190/150EUR to buy online. Headphones that can handle Pink Floyd and Trance music perfectly. Natural sound quality and preferably a detachable cable. No use of an amp although I might buy a Xonar DG. I will be using the headphones...

Hi,   I know there are a lot of recommendations out there, but sometimes there's unfamiliar new gear worth seeking and sometimes old favorites are overlooked. A killer $100 phone found used for $50 is worth consideration. Or a closeout. Black Friday, etc. New or USED.   Please advise...

Hello everyone,     I am going to be as objective as possible so not to take a lot of your time.   BUDGET: $90~$130.   GENRE: Classical, Instrumental (like OSTs, Yann Tiersen, Joe Hisaishi, Ryuichi Sakamoto, etc.), Rock (lots of styles, except for metal, thrash, death and similar)...

Hey all,   I'm quite new to the headphone world and just decided to start looking for a good quality headphone after listening with my friend's Grado SR60i back in July of this year. I know for sure that I will get an open can sooner or later, but as of now, I've been looking for a good...

Dear Head Fi community,   Been lurking around for quite some time now but can't really find the solution for my problem. I know there are a 1000 diffrent threads like mine already out there, but everyone seems to suggest diffrent ones, and since I am not able to listen to each and every...

Hey HF   Ive just ordered my first pair of decent headphones (a FA-003 clone), and was wondering about getting an amp for those headphones. Ill be using the phones with my PC and my android phone, not the strongest sources, and occasionally my NAD surround receiver. Ive been reading alot but...

Hi, I know this is going to make people stew, but I am looking for a pair of quality sound headphones around the $80 mark. I dont care about the looks, (well, to the point it can be worn in public) and I am looking mainly for sound quality. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :D

I literally have no clue about Headphones, so hoping you guys can help! I need a pair of headphones, my budget is tiny at about £40-50. So far I've found only the Koss Porta Pro which is pretty cheap and the Panasonic RP-HTX7. Anyone have any ideas? :D Thanks!

Hi everyone, a few months ago You guys helped me become the owner of a Samson SR850    .   I absolutely love the sr850s but they tend to leak a lot of sound. I use them around my house but I'm looking for a second pair of headphones for I can use in my morning subway commute and in the...

It is well known that the HM5, FA-003, and seemingly the Jaycar Pro Monitor Headphones are all rebranded Yoga CD-880's. I was reading around, and stumbled on a pair of Studiospares M1000's that seem to be the same, but unlike the rest, are available to buy very easily within the UK at the very...

Hey, so I've repriotized from my previous thread (Good gaming headphones) amd figured that I have more time for listening to classical music on my Ipod than gaming. So I've been looking at these headphones: 1. FA-003(USD165) 2. Q701(USD300~) 3. HE-300(USD200~ 4. DT880 Pro 600/Premium...

Hi everyone,   I just joined Head-Fi but I have been browsing and searching the forums for a long time now. Since I was 15 years old or so I had a pair of Sennheiser HD 202's. They would break every 9 months or so, and it was always the left  ear cup that stopped working. I only stopped...
