Amp for NAD HP 50
I did. I got the FiiO E12 Mont Blanc from Amazon for $130. I absolutely love it. I run it with the Bass on, Crossfeed and Gain at 0. I didn't notice much change in the mid to high range, but it definitely rounded out the bottom end on these. They aren't like the V-Moda Crossfades with...- cntclass1

PSB M4U1 vs. NAD VISO HP50
Having owned both now; (I only kept the NADs) I can definitely recommend the NAD HP50s. They are very very similar in sound signature; however the NADs are much lighter and more comfortable to wear. My biggest qualm with the NADs was the slightly low amount of bottom end. I paired them with a...- cntclass1

Best Closed Headphone around $300
Billson, Thanks for the great reply! It sounds like out of the two; the PSB would be a slightly better fit since these won't be moved around much at all. You mentioned the AKG K550. Would you recommend this headset over the PSB?- cntclass1

Best Closed Headphone around $300
The Sennheiser Momentum has on the ear and over the ear sets. I'm assuming you are talking about the over the ear ones? Have you been able to listen to both the Sennheiser and the PSB? Those are the two I'm most interested in right now.- cntclass1

Best Closed Headphone around $300
Hello Everyone! I am looking for a good closed headphone around the $300 mark. I would like to stay below this but am flexible. I will be wearing these for long periods of time in an office environment and need them to not leak sound if at all possible. I listen to rock, classical...- cntclass1

In-Line Mic
Does anyone know if this product already exists? I would like to get an in-line mic/remote to go with an existing set of canal phones without having to slice the wires. Does anyone make a male 3.5mm connecter with a mic and controls built in to female 3.5mm connecter? If not, why hasn't...- cntclass1

Best closed headphones for playing poker
I would NOT recommend the ATH-M50s unless you plan on buying the older models second hand. The new model of ATH-M50 ships in a white box and does not have near the sound quality of the older line. They lack midbass punch and almost all bottom end. Bestbuy has some AKG K550s on sale for $230. I...- cntclass1

IEMs with closest sound to AH-D600
I'm probably going to go with the GR07. It would be nice if the product was available for me to demo somewhat close by. I have never been a fan of buying without listening. Time and time again I have found listening to them ahead of time helps make the best decision. I guess I don't have a...- cntclass1

IEMs with closest sound to AH-D600
Hello everyone, I am new to this forum so I apologize if I am repeating a post. I just purchased a set of AH-D600s and absolutely love them. I am looking for a set of IEMs that will be as close as possible to the sound quality and signature. I like how well balanced, comfortable, and...- cntclass1

Denon AH-D600 vs AKG K550 vs Bowers & Wilkins P5 vs Anything Else
I just demoed the K550 and AH-D600 side by side this evening. Almost everything about the Denon was dramatically better. I don't know where you will find them for a similar price range. The K550 that I demoed were $230 whereas the Denon AH-D were $470. The Denons were definitely more...- cntclass1

Ath M50: The New vs Old
The new ATH M50s are definitely not as bass prevalent as the older model. The new series has virtually no mid-bass or bottom end. The highs are much more pronounced on the new model. My room mate had the old set and loved them. I was quite excited to order a pair. I just received the new model...- cntclass1
