I have an audigy and a hd280. I used a spitter (im only using the front channels) to split the headphones and my cheapo speakers. I tried hooking up the phones for the first time today straight from the sound card and i didnt hear any hiss at all. the hd280s are pretty revealing so i was kinda...

hey guys i was just wondering if you know whether or not there exists a device that cleans up the sound output of a device. I have a compaq laptop that has just horrendous interference. You can hear literally all electronical interferences, including the fan, hard drive, dvd-rom(thats loud as...

one of the drivers on my 35 also blew. I was lookin around at their website and it seems like they might have decided not to discontinue the 35, but instead updated it. The website showed the phones that are gray and black, not all black, and the pouch is also different than mines. I'll probably...

hm... the bottom of mines seem to have just a slight opening, and i cant seem to get rid of it. It just doesnt go deep like the v6 w/o pushing on the cans.

well i just got my 280's today and upon first listening to it, i wasnt all that impressed. Okay i admit that i havent really breaken em in yet but thats not the point. Upon listening to them, i expected V6 like bass, but it wasn't there. So i was thinking okay, maybe it needed more breakin in or...

well, i dont think that i was being 'pushed around' by anyone. Although I liked the V6s bass and clarity, I just couldn't shake that 'closed' feeling that it offered, so i never really planned on keeping it. I also noticed that the vocals seemed distant compared to my other phones. My choice for...

gah! u guys r makin my life really really hard Okay im goin with the 280s. Luckily Fry's got one of the greatest return policies out there (half the stuff in the stores are returns) , so the V6s are goin back to the store (free burn-in to the lucky buyer!) The way the 497s are described make em...

OKAY, I RETRACT MOST OF THE NEGATIVE STATEMENTS I SAID ABOUT THE V6! I dont know if im just gettin use to them or if its the 25+ hours of burn-in i've put on em but man, they're startin to sound good now. The bass is incredible. Very deep. This is the first time i've experienced good bass...

well apparently my ears suck Comparing the V6 and the Denons, I definately heard the poor qualities of the Denons, as I already mentioned (boomy mid-bass, muddy sound, less detailed, blah blah) so i dont think that my ears suck that bad. It just seems that I now understand all the weak...

Based on some reviews i found around here, I was seriously considering getting the Senn HD280, but i really wanted to check out the sound before i buy. So I went down to Fry's and picked up a V6 since they are suppose to sound similar (cant find the 280's locally anywhere). I was ready to be...

yea i read everything there is to read about these two cans already, but i would like a more of an a-b comparison. Deep bass and detailed mids for one phone may sound weak and muddy when directly compared to another. My main concerns right now are that the hp890 wont have as deep bass as the...

seems it has come down to the hp890 and the hd280, can anyone give a comparison of the two?

I just read the review of the sennhieser hd280 and those seem interesting as well. Can someone compare the bass of these to the hd280's and also tell me if the hd280's would work well w/ poorer sources?

wow, u guys respond quick! I guess there's a lot of confusion on my original post so i'll try to clear things up. 1) I dont play the gameboy on the go, only by my bedside before i go to sleep ( it burns my eyes lookin at the gba screen when its not DIRECTLY under a light) so the size of the...
