Thanks for replying.  I'm using them with my PC and my smartphone. That are the  only things that are connected with it.

Hey, I got the fidelio x2 a few days ago and I think they are staying. The only thing which bothers me is that the cable is too long, so I will have to find another one. My question is, is there any accessoire or Dac you would recommend to a beginner with his Fidelio X2?

Hey I'm kind of a basshead, I think. I heard that the X2 have a dry and punchy bass. I am now insecure because I would like to have also a 'subthreshold' bass and not only bass when it's absolutely emphasized in the track. I hope you know what I mean. Can you please help me out with this one...

Hey Guys, I want to have fun with my headphones with much bass rather than be neutral. I want to listen to rousing and wild nirvana and not neutral. I am stuck between these headphones: Philips Fidelio X1 Philips Fidelio X2 Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro     Can you help me out? I tend to...

Okay, I seriously consider buying the X2. Does anybody know if they will be fun sounding, even though they are neutral?

Hey, Guys I'm between the X1 and the DT 990 Pro.  I tend to buy the 990 because of the replaceable earpads even though the sound signature of the x1 is more appealing to me. How long do the earpads of the X1 last? And what do you guys recommend me? I listend mainly to Rock (Nirvana), and...

Is there somebody who owns both headphones? The DT990 and the X1? What should I buy?

Thanks for helping to exclude these. I could buy the DT 990 pro + an Fiio E17. So basically what my brother did.  Maybe I am one, but I still rely on clearance and nice and clear sounding vocals. The same is for the musical feeling. Bass isn't the most important factor for me, but there should...

I recently bought the SoundMagic HP200 as my first serious HP purchase and I'm not satisfied with their sound. For me they sound 'okay', but not 'fun'. The lack of bass is bothering and Nirvana doesn't sound rousing and wild. The sound of the vocals and highs (e.g. listening to Lana Del Rey) is...

Hey, I can't help you, but I ordered the SoundMagic HP200 today and your Post made me unsecure now. This was my first serious Headphone pruchase to get in the audiophile world and now I'm not sure if I did a mistake... Do you know the HD 598 would rather fit in your preferences that the HP200...

Again thanks. I ordered them, now. Do you know any specific music or album I should give a try with my new headphones? Or any other tip, now that I am a member of the head-fi's. 

Thank you very much. The bass isn't the most important aspect for me but it should be enough for Hip Hop and Rap. I think the soundstage is more important than the bass. That's why I would prefer rather open headphones. From what I've read the HD 598 sound great, but the bass would probably...
