I was looking at how pricing was nowadays and I see the IE8 at $145.00. This can't be right. http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-IE-Audiophile-Isolating-Headphone/dp/B0012XFDWE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1283265972&sr=8-1

Thanks man. I think I'm set for now. The M50s are alright for J-Pop right?

Where can I get velcro ties?

Hm Do you have a pic of that?

How do you even bring that outside. Doesn't it get hassling taking care of all that wire?

Quote: How long is the wire?

I'm going to a Guitar Center to demo them sometime this week. Thanks for all the help blueyan.

Yeah, I looked at some pics and I realized they are humongous. I'd definitely use them mainly at home. The M50s seem more of a reasonable size but I really can't seem to care for coiled wire. I think the tension in it would be difficult to deal with if I'm relaxed. I'd look into IEMs but I...

Is the M50 cheapest on amazon? Because I can't seem to tell a difference between the regular one and the "professional" one other than the fact that the professional one is cheaper than the regular.   Also, enjoy your 840s man. Thanks a ton for the help.   EDIT: Actually, I might just...

How is the isolation and sound stage on the A700s? Mainly I will be taking them to classes at college and I wanted them to be "portable" so that they don't break like some of the headphones I've read about and had (I damaged a pair in my backpack but that was kind of negligent on my part)...

Oh, I meant the A700. But they're the closed can ones. Not sure how that would affect it since open cans seem better after looking into it. I'll look more into the M50s, what you're telling me is really catching my interest. What is the difference between these? From what I can see, one is...

How are the M50's comfort wise? I read that it could get a bit clampy and tight on the head. But I also read that it could be modded. Could you tell me more about the ES7s and AD700s though? How are they while playing classical music? Why isn't the AD700 portable?

Well, I've been thinking of replacing my crumbling HD555s that I've been using for 3 some years. Mainly, I listen to Game music (soundtracks, touhou, OCremix), Electronic music and Classical/Orchestral music with some J-Pop mixed in. What I want from the headphones would be 1. Good for the...

Any suggestions?

-I haven't used Head-Fi in a while and well, I want to buy a new set of headphones or a new IEM because my old ones broke. -I was using an Altec Lansing UHP336 (bought it because it was on sale and someone suggested it to me). The wires recently snapped and I am in need of something new to...
