Hi everyone, I am looking for headphones under 100 EUR. My picks so far are:   - Sennheiser HD 280 PRO - Grado SR80i - Koss Porta Pro KTC - Sony MDR-V6 - I have heard a lot of good things about ATH-M50x but they are out of my price range.   I want durable headphones for video edit and...

I can get the SR60i new for $80,but for some reason I can only find he SR80i's for $150+ new. Usually the SR80i is $100 new but for some reason that's not the case right now. These are amazon prices,the only place I will buy so dont recommend me look anywhere else. I know the differences,etc...

I recently purchased a second hand pair sr80i's. I've been using them for about two weeks and have noticed on some songs, particularly with lower frequencies, there is a bit of distortion. It was only a few songs though, other songs that go down to the same frequencies don't have this problem...

I'm fairly new to being an audiophile, and I'm looking forward to doing so. I'm gonna get a pair of Grado SR-80i's. I listen to a lot of metal and I'm on a tight budget. I don't have any amps, I mainly use my phone for music, and sometimes my laptop. I've used Beats (aaaand, they suck.) I...

Will game a lot so soundstage is important i suppose?  Other than that mostly trance music.   M50 for 129$, SR80 for 140$.   Thanks.

I am doing a report for a college writing course where I have to compare three products, and I am comparing these three models of headphones.  I am also considering buying one, when I save some money.  However, I don't know a whole lot about headphones, so I thought I'd ask you guys.   How do...

Looking through various threads, I noticed that companies are said to have their own sonic signatures. Thus, about to invest about £200 in audio tech, I was thinking whether it would be better to buy several (probably 3)lower end headphones from different companies to find a preference or go for...

I've found a few options and just need help making a decision on which to purchase. The first...

The title says it all. I have pad modded SR80i headphones that handle binaural recordings in pleasing ways (excellent directionality). Has anyone else experienced a similar phenomenon?

Hello everyone, I have been really interested into getting a DAC/AMP combo to improve the sound expirience on my grado SR80i headphones and possibly other headphones like HD600 and SR325i that i will upgrade in near future. There is not much information about the D42 by iBasso, it looks like its...

PART 1 - DAY 2 I have taken delivery of a used pair of AKG K701's, which are in mint condition and have possibly therefore not had much of the recommended breaking in. I bought these to replace a pair of Grado SR80s. I have had the Grados for about 4 years, and they are therefore the model...

Hey there, ive recently become fed up with poor quality gaming headsets (which i used for games and music) after I received my current headphones, which im in the process of returning. After spending the last 3 days going over various websites and reviews for headphones im in need of some...

Hello, my first thread in this forum ^^ I recently bought a Grado SR80i and I fell in love with it. And I'm thinking of buying a DAC (now I use it with iPhone5. Audio files are all FLACs. I play it with Capriccio Player). I only listen to musics in my room so portability isn't concern. But...

Hello. I am your usual forum lurker. I am presently using an iPhone earphones whenever I am not on my desk. On my desk, I always use my Grado SR - 80i headphone which I really really like because of its sound.   Any Grado sound like IEM that you can recommend?    Appreciate it.   Thank...

Greeting Everybody!   First of all, I am a new Member of Head-Fi, but have been lurking for sometime.  There is huge amount of extremely helpful information (unfortunately mixed in with an equal amount of useless/misguided information) that has helped me appreciate my music more than ever...

Hello guys, I have been troubled by a decision these days and cant settle between the  ATH-M50 with the coiled cable and the Grado SR80i. The ATH-M50 is extremely well rated, however looks like it was designed by an alien, however the Grado looks simplistic and good, however it apparently leaks...

HI,   I am not sure if this is the best forum for the question best here goes.   I do most of my listening now at night in bed. Due to convenience my source is either an Iphone 5 or Ipad Air with premium Spotify on extreme setting.    I use a lightning adapter into a Pure i-20 and then...

Hi! I know that there were many quite similiar threads but i still have no clear answer. Which ones of this two headphones deliver better sound quality? Ive heared that ultrasones are more bass heavy (which is not very important for me) and frequency response is bit wider but closed back build...

Been using my Grado SR80 for travel but they are falling apart and dont fill the portable roll well at all.   I am looking for portable headphones which are durable, comfortable and sound nice. I prefer to spend around 100-150USD but I can go up to around 250 if the gain in quality is good...

Since I have some more money coming in, I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions of where to go next.   Still fairly new to the whole audiophile thing and I have had SR-80is for less than a year but can say that I really love them...I also own Senn HD-280 pros which I also enjoy but...
