i bought a pair of ath-es7's from jr.com and i've noticed when i play some songs i hear a rattling in the headphones.. i'm wondering if this happens with them while they are burning in or something or if i maybe got a defective pair? it's not every song it's only with a few of them. it's almost...

i'm considering using a pink noise file that i'm downloading but i'm a little afraid i might bust something in the headphones. do i just play the file through winamp and turn the volume all the way up on winamp and then a little less than half way up on my laptop? or is just listening to...

Purchased through JR.com. They were supposed to come last friday but something happened with UPS and I didn't get them until the following tuesday. Overall first impression was that they are smaller in person than when I saw them through pictures. They look beautiful, I'm loving how sleek...

I'm purchasing the ATH-ES7's but I don't know if I should purchase them through Buy.com or JR.com. Buy.com says the suggested price is 280.00 but they are selling them for under 100 dollars. JR.com says the suggested price is 170.00 but they are selling them for under 100 dollars as well...

i read a mod on how to make the ES-7's more comfortable which i may try if they feel uncomfortable on my head. and yeah i'm a bit worried to try something to break in the noise besides just listening to music, i don't know why but i'm hesitant about it, but i've heard it could open up your...

I'm gonna be purchasing one of these two pairs in the next 2 days and was wondering any input you may have about them. I like a good balance of all around sound.. Nice clean bass while good mids and highs as well. I've been reading the ES7's are better for portable use which is what I'll be...

So in the next few days I'm either going to purchasing the Audio Technica ATH-ES7 or the AKG k81dj mainly for portable use with my Ipod classic with no amp or anything. Straight from the headphones to the Ipod. I've been reading reviews and I'm a bit more leaned towards the ES7's but I'm still...

I'm tired of reading reviews that go back and forth with what they say from one website to another, so I came to what people tell me is the best headphone website, hands down! -I am looking for a full-size headphone (over ear), I listen to mainly Hip Hop and Electronica (Drum'n'Bass) but I...
