    Audio Technica ATH M50 or Sony MDR XB700? NEED HELP

    I am a bass head.....people hyped up the SRH840 alot when they first came out, and I got a pair. They have literally no bass for my tastes and I returned them. Ive had the shure's SCL4 for awhile now and gotten used to the sound and I should have realized that the SRH840 have that shure...

    SRH840 vs AT m50

    i was making the same considerations, but I listen to more electronica music (electro house, drum n bass). I went with the srh840 (BTW got them from J&R call them and youll get it for 129.99 shipped), I burned them in for around 72 hours. Dont get me wrong, these are very good headphones...

    About to pull the trigger on some srh840....stop me?

    got the srh840s in, been listening to it lightly...while they've been burning in nearly 40 hours now. Definitely not what Im looking for. For Electronica music (deadmau5, dnb, dubstep electrohouse), listening to headphones without a dynamic range of low freq is pointless. Like listening to a...

    About to pull the trigger on some srh840....stop me?

    Thanks a bunch for your reply!! I just pulled the trigger, and I figured with J&R's return policy, if it's not what I'm looking for I can just return them and opt for the m50s. I've read a couple threads, as little as there are, concerning srh840 vs m50, and it seems kind of split with some...
