Just an update around a month of daily usage later... I am in love with these headphones. Is there a magical Ultrasone fairy that helps these headphones improve over time? Absolutely. For almost every headphone out there, burn in would seem to be a complete myth. These are a striking...

Yep, it will sound *terrible* right out of the box... painful highs and boomy lows. Worse than Apple earbuds.   Give them a minimum of 100 hours burn in before making a decision. The sound will improve *dramatically* in that timeframe.

Well guys, I gave them a 24 hour burn in and... if there is proof that burn-in is real then this is it. These are completely different headphones. I know for a fact it's not just my ears either... the difference is night and day. There's still some sibilance but the sound is smoother and the...

Hey guys... I just received my Ultrasone Pro 900's from an Amazon marketplace seller and... I think something might be wrong with them.   The highs are harsh. Like... bone-shattering harsh. For reference I own Beyerdynamic DT990's (which are known for very harsh treble) and these highs are at...

So I really need to resurrect this thread. Want to make your headphones play something beautiful? Try this:  

These are not the exact speakers. I just don't have a picture of them in the setup.  Nonetheless, the room they're in is a nice dedicated room with decent accoustics but isn't heavily treated nor has reflectors of any sort. Let's just say that in his position, the sticker price is sort of...

Super-8D... 6.5/10   Great execution but the plot has been already explored in countless other films.

So I'm really surprised (after extensive searching) that no such thread appears to have existed. The goal of this thread is simple. Recount the fondest, darkest, happiest, or most memorable moments in your life that have involved headphones.   Delve into one memory at a time and really...

For many users, players like Amarra and Pure Music WILL make a difference. It all boils down to iTune's rather iffy audio engine that doesn't always nicely handle the higher bitrate files it accepts. Basically, something like Pure Music or Amarra will natively play these files and not do some...

Although I started raving as vinyl was doing down... there was something about being part of a musical revolution that was really appealing. My first rave was at 15 (it was in the UK and my parents were abroad) and I remember that at that particular point electronic music could hardly be found...

Seeing the title of this thread made me so happy! I started climbing in high school and now I'm up to about a 5.10a, but work has not given me enough time to climb in the past year. Accordingly, I'm out of shape atm but I do hope to lead my first 5.10c by the end of next year.   I'm actually...

I have noticed there are quite a few house/trance/godforbid...dubstep fans among Head-Fiers. I was wondering if any of you have been raving (i.e. in the underground scene) or at least enjoy a good massive (electric daisy carnival, electric zoo, electric forest....)? It's certainly a very...

Heck, I'll throw in a wonderful progressive beat while I'm at it. Yeah yeah it's technically not trance but it made Above & Beyond's Trance Around The World last week so I'm including it:  

Quote: Bespoke is truly a wonderful experience. You really get to know the tailor and they can get the perfect cut. If you're a fan of the very elegant british hourglass cut then they can do it. If you want a more italian cut, then a good tailor should be able to pull it off too. The great...

So I'm sitting in the undergraduate library collaborative study floor (read: not silent) today (not many fun phones in the business school library) and I HIT THE JACKPOT. In front of me I see Ultrasone Pros. Front right there are Beat HD's BOO :(. To my right is a guy wearing HD 650's. Directly...
