Noontec Zoro
If the Zoros trump the M80s in any way, it'd be that the midrange is smoother and slightly less grainy on the Zoros. Bass extension also seemed better to my ears. They aren't basshead cans by any stretch, but they have a good amount of weight when called for.- Crow T Robot

Noontec Zoro
I've had both the Zoros and the M80s, and ended up selling the latter. The m80s have a very forward midrange and a sort of "in your face" sound, while the Zoros have a surprisingly neutral signature with decent bass and good mids. They do have a weird roll off in the treble that makes certain...- Crow T Robot

That's a tempting deal. I briefly had a pair of the on-ear Wireless Rhythms, and they sounded pretty decent for bluetooth cans. Select Bose Headphones 10% off at Crutchfield.- Crow T Robot

CAD Audio The Seassions Headphones
Anybody heard these? I like the look of the orange and black ones, but I'm leery of spending seventy bucks on a set of headphones just because I like they way they look.- Crow T Robot

M-Audio Studiophile Q40 - Review, and Appreciation
Snagged a pair of these from Amazon Warehouse Deals when they were 70 bucks "like new", and grabbed a pair of Beyerdynamic velour pads while I was at it. Holy crap. I was expecting these would be a sloppy, bassy guilty pleasure like my Vmoda LPs, but I've been listening to various music...- Crow T Robot

For anybody else that bought a saucepan from Rakuten thinking it was a pair of Phiaton MS400, I just got an email from Wayfair (the marketplace seller) telling me they're issuing a full refund, and that I can keep the pan.- Crow T Robot

++ FULL-SIZE HEADPHONE RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD++ CLOSED: Please post a thread in the Introductions, Help and Advice forum
I think the model numbers just refer to the colors GY is gray and BK is black. I've never heard the Uptowns, but if they're anything like the Downtowns, I can't imagine they're very good. The Downtowns just sound thin to me.- Crow T Robot

Just did. They've been on my radar for forever, and at that price, I couldn't resist. :)- Crow T Robot

++ FULL-SIZE HEADPHONE RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD++ CLOSED: Please post a thread in the Introductions, Help and Advice forum
Anyone had a chance to compare the Phiaton MS400 and Logitech UE6000? I've finally narrowed down my search to these two, and I'm leaning toward the Phiatons because they can be had cheaper, and look quite a bit better. The UE do have a detachable cable, which is a plus, and I got a chance...- Crow T Robot

Yeah, mine shipped too. I'll either be rocking out or cooking sauce in a couple of days, I guess.- Crow T Robot

Yeah they're listed as out of stock now. I hope they just cancel my order instead of sending me a saucepan.- Crow T Robot

Phiaton MS400 for 35.48 plus shipping on Rakuten. Not sure if this is an error or what, but I'm tempted to take a chance. http://www.rakuten.com/prod/phiaton-ms400-premium-carbon-fiber-headphones/243330020.html?listingId=283423337- Crow T Robot

DAC with variable output under $300?
How is the headphone out? My eventual goal is to get a more demanding set of cans for my desktop (HD650, Q701, or the like), and I know I shouldn't expect miracles for $90 but I figure I'd ask. Thanks for responding to all my questions.- Crow T Robot
