Just curious how you like them?  They've been around for a while I think, and I don't see too many HF comments on them, they certainly don't appear to have ever had any FOTM hype.   I was at my local Frys and they were on sale for $65.  Tylls measurements look pretty good for a can in this...

The SE-A1000 were my first nice pair of headphones. I got them for ~$80 and was amazed at the audio quality when I first got them. There are two main issues: first, the build quality is not that high. There was some squeaking when I moved my head. Second, it was extremely fatiguing to listen to...

Hello everybody.   First, I want to say that I am happy that I am part of this exciting forum. Second - my English in not perfect, so - excuse me if there is something not understandable. Third, I hope that my topic is with correct title and that it's in the right place.   Now I'll say a...

Just curious how these 3 compare. 3 open, $50 or less headphones that seem to dominate the sub-$100 category (if open is okay for you, plenty of good closed ones out there I'm not going into, but sound leakage is fine with me). The Superluxes are usually around $30-40, so even cheaper...

looking to get a new sound card ( got a new motherboard doesnt have pci old sound card was pci)  i am currently trying to choose between 2 sound cards and wondering which one i should get. will be used with my Pioneer SE-A1000 headphones mabye something better in the future with a higher...

I have had my ATH-M50s for six months, and my Beyerdynamic DT-1350 for a month. They both sound great! Anyway, I am thinking of moving ahead to a high-end headphone (the sennheiser hd700). In my upgrade, I am searching for something closer to the big sound produced by speakers. My question is...

Is either one better for movies?   Do movies require a large soundstage, like open cans provide?   Thanks.

I've been considering doing this simply because no matter how good IEM's can sound, they're no match for fullsize cans. 

Looking to upgrade my trusty SR 850s. I have been almost killed 6 times now and although I am a tank in most respects, I still have issues with heavier headphones over long periods of time.    What modes should I consider? I am thinking maybe the FA-011, Beyer 880. Something with a bit of...

Hello all, I hate to bring up another one of *these* threads, Ive seen plenty of them in my search for the correct answer. Im looking for the best (in your personal opinion) set of headphones for under $100 that fit my tastes. I'm a broke college student but I would spend more if I could, and I...

I haven't heard much about them, what can you tell me about them?

Hi everyone,   I'm new on this forum and I'm here for some advice. Though I enjoy my music, I'm not that much of an audiophile. My cheap-ass Philips SHP8500's gave me all the "oh my goodness, I'm hearing things I never heard before" moments I could wish for. So why am I here? Well, a friend...

Hi,   I want to buy another headphone for gaming. Right now I have the Superlux 668B. So far I'm thinking about these two:   SE-A1000  Takstar Hi 2050 DT 770 ? DT 990 PRO ?    Which is the best for competitive fps gaming (footstep listening and positioning)? And are there other good...

I want to buy either the Pioneer SE-A1000 or Sennheiser HD558. I will be using my Pioneer VSX-1120 receiver's headphone jack to power them and I have no plans to buy a headphone amp. The primarily use of the new headphones would be for watching movies and playing Xbox 360 games. Out of the...

So I use an Astro Mixamp and want a new set of headphones since I am sick of the Astro A40's and their mediocre sound quality.    I am currently looking to spend under $100 for these and probably buy the zalman clip mic for my gaming.   Here are the 3 I am interested in.   Pioneer...

I read good things about this. Being Pioneer top of the line so it should be decent right. Is it worth the $79? http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d.html/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/181-7354341-7687813?a=B0033PROOY

  Hello everyone, my name is Detach.   I’ve been floating around the Head-Fi boards for about a year now.  I started here with headphones, because at the time it was the most affordable way for me to get the quality sound I wanted.  I did my research and eventually went with some Shure...

Hi all,    I want to upgrade from my stock motherboard sound. Im looking to keep it low budget, but I think the sound can get much better than stock motherboard sound.   Motherboard: Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 Headphone gaming: Superlux HD 668B Headphone music: Fischer Audio FA-003 Other sources...

I'm re-making this comparisson to make it more useful for people looking for budget open headphones. What to expect from each one and how do they compare in terms of sound quality?   The setup used is pretty simple: Laptop (foobar2000) >> Fiio E07K Andes Dac/Amp >> Takstar HI-2050 Laptop...

I'm too stupid to even know where to start.  Quality is key, but I enjoy lots of bass as well. Typing this up quickly, will give any additional info needed.

The Pioneer SE A1000. Most likely not heard of from most people here. The thing about that fact, is that its a sad fact. A very sad fact indeed. When it comes to a phone under $100. You are most likely thinking. ew. There cant possibly be anything good under $100.   Or youre thinking. I...
