Smart guy. But you're not quite up to snuff, yet, little one. Maybe someday you'll be like me.

Constructive input against fanboyism is useless here. I don't find either the Shure's or the ATH's very good. They're in a range that just doesn't sound THAT great. The M50's are only good online. I've yet to meet anyone who's heard much about them in real life. I don't really care what you guys...

You certainly must not be serious if you don't follow my point. Yes, thank you again for re-reiterating that the sound engineers at AT moved their freqs a certain way...this means you can read a graph. Good job. The point is this: M50=overpriced & under-performing. But hey folks, if you truly...

rayj, you define M50 fanboyism and take it to a whole other stratoshpere. Being into "sound engineering" doesn't mean squat. Your little graphs are for 1% of the people that buy 'phones. Anybody who does any proper recording wouldn't touch a M50, because there is so much better product for that...

rayjuodas... you seem to forget I paid 90 bucks and sell them 90 bucks (440's). All those earphones you speak of are near $200. The Koss Pro DJ 100's are cool and cheap, I like them and would be the only phone you could use to compare to the 440's thus far. Now if I said I paid $200 for the...

Hey, it's flower boy, again. Still think I see the Shure's as a 400 can like you are? You might want to invest in a better kindergarten teacher, flower girl.

Still talking to me, flower girl?

The Clip+ really is a great little player and nothing come close to the overall quality/$. I had a 4gb + and it unfortunately got crushed under a car seat and did not survive. I'm either going to get the same blue + or else the new 8gb I never knew was out! I'm just not rich enough to endure the...

Wow, fanyboys galore in here. So since when do we have so many pro audio producers that can't afford stuff better than m50's? In this city, there are none. The m50's are old, overpriced and overhyped. The 440's are NOT a BETTER phone. I simply laid out, the differences that I had found and how...

Yeah, well if you want some come to the store, we can't get rid of the m50's, they're on sale on top of that. BS walks, tweedle-dumb. I just can't believe so many people would die for the m50's. So much better stuff out there than that can. It's no wonder they went down in price so much.

"people will always have different opinions about headphones" me as well :)

The DX is in store and doesn't have amp, the Xonar DS I own has a dedicated built in headphone amp that drives very sufficiently all phones. I fail to understand how not hearing most fine sounds in nearly all my good recordings, music and games is superior to one where you do hear everything...
