So all I'm getting from a weekend of silence is: "Fidue's customer support really is nonexistent, and their products really don't last. Don't bother with their products". Hoping we can officially seal the deal and give them officially a bad name; moral of the story: Don't buy Fidue. Anything.

Hi Head-fi, When my Monster Turbine Pro Coppers were killed by a friend, I turned to these forums to find my next pair: enter the Fidue A73. While they were great sounding while they lasted (and horrible to use because the cable ties itself in knots regardless of how you store them), my mic...

Bump bump! As my Monster Turbine Pro Coppers were killed by a friend a year ago and my Bose sport ie2s or whatever they're called have gotten pretty worn, I too am searching for something to meet the same need. Extremely disappointing that Shure hasn't updated the SE215's to just ship with a...

I'm going to go with either the DT250's or the KRK 8400's, but I'm going to get my Shures replaced and sell them first.   *sigh*...the commerce chaos of shipping, paying, receiving and selling begins.

So I would definitely get these, they sound literally like the answer to my headphone prayers, except for one little thing: they lack bass. Since their sole purpose will be the recording and producing of rap music, they're kind of immediately off the table...

So I've had my SRH840s for years now, and I had nothing but love for them until I went to put them on two weeks ago and the right can snapped right off the plastic piece that holds it into the headband part. So, to get these replaced by Shure's service dept is $80. Can anyone think of a better...

Just so you all know, I bought a pair of the Bose because they were on sale. Tried them a few days, they sounded nice but I realized they wouldn't work off battery power, even just as headphones, so I took them back. Now I'm broke and have no money to spend on these things!

  Quote:   At least you're getting my humor! The phones you suggested sound good, but as far as remote and mic I don't think the AT's do, nor do the DJX-1. Aaaaaaand those Sennheisers are pretty huge, and expensive! I checked out the Holiday Gift Guide (really an amazing piece of...

Wow, what a beautiful gift guide. This was really an amazing piece of work-incredibly professional, and tailored to the needs of us head-fiers! Great job, and I hope we can now expect one every year!

Quote: I was actually just hoping there was a better alternative for the money that I didn't know about and that somebody would suggest. But after perusal of the '96 portables' as well as others, I think in the price range it really will be tough to find something better. I'm going to buy...

Thanks for all the replies so far, guys! I will say that unfortunately I'm going to rule out the M-80. While they really do look awesome and seem to have very satisfying sound qualities, I'm going to say based on the first several reviews consistently mentioning poor isolation and cable...

Excellent point, DarkAudit. I will edit the original post accordingly!

Yeah, the price is a big factor-it's a pretty amazing discount and it expires at the end of the year so I want to be sure to take advantage. Thanks electronics retail job!   I hadn't heard about a LeBron version though, I'll have to look into those because I work out a lot and having over...

I'm probably going to buy some Beats Studio. I get them 50% off through a connect I have. The reason I plan to buy them is I think they will be a very good fit for what I plan to use them for. But, since I know my fellow head-fiers have strong opinions against them, I figured I'd outline what I...
