Ahh thanks. Sorry, that was a typo, meant to say it DOESN'T affect sound or functionality.    Not a big deal if it can be easily remedied. 

One of my hinges on my m100 doesn't click. It affect sound or functionality, just wondering if anyone else had this problem, and if there is a fix

Yeah I have the 439 and while they MIGHT look/feel cheap, they definitely don't sound like 30 dollar headphones. I've used these for a while before I upgraded and they have good clarity. The bass I thought was initially lacking, but with a very simple tape mod posted here (i'll try to dig it...

This is tough. 1. Sennheiser HD598   -  Bass is not as recessed as I thought it would be. Highs and mids are fantastic. Soundstage obviously very wide and good. A very relaxing, non fatiguing, enveloping    headphone. Some slight sibilance, I expect this to get better with burn in. I'm only...

The HD598 bass is actually not that "bad". I don't consider it recessed at all. It's present for sure, and for the really epic trance intros it sounds freakin fantastic with the wide soundstage.  That being said, if you want impactful bass, consider the DT770, DT990, V-Moda Lp2, V Moda M100...

you made a good choice. I adore my m80s.be sure to let the pads adjust. they might be slightly uncomfortable before then

Quote:   Hey, I have the V-Moda M80s AND I just go the HD598, literally 30 minutes from UPS :)))    I may be able to help you out a little bit.    The V-Moda M80's are a little uncomfortable at first, but once the memory foam ear cushions adapt to your ears (trust me, I was...

Ordered these for Christmas! Should get here by Monday. Thought it was a great deal for 199 off amazon. Really excited!   My V moda M80s are great for pretty much anything, especially electronic music, but I wanted something for acoustic stuff (acoustic is a BROAD term encompassing piano, ac...

I've heard real good things about the aurvana lives, and they get pretty cheap on Amazon. from what I hear they have great non overpowering bass. though honestly op if u can save and squeeze the v MODA m80 would be excellent for you. 150 on Amazon and they do EVERYTHING well but ESPECIALLY rap...

I also want to add that these headphones are freaking amazing in terms of clarity, bass and vocals. I give these my ringing, if worthless, endorsement! Upgrading from senn hd439

Okay. cool. For those that sent them in, did it fix the "problem". This is important as it'll determine whether i'll send them in :p If not then I'll take comfort knowing it's not just me/ a defection Thanks! It's not glaring, just barely noticeable, especially in metal. most likely my...

Does anyone get a slight emphasis on the left ear can? Is cuz of the cable plugging to the left? I find bass and vocals to be slightly emphasized to the left. I can't tell if its the headphones or my ears..

Just wanted to add: For those who want more bass out of these, try this very easy mod: http://www.head-fi.org/a/sennheiser-hd4-8-modding-for-newbies It really enhances the bass without drowning out the other frequencies. I recommend covering the middle and "back" holes, for those who've read...

I disagree. I like the HD439's a lot and I listen to a good variety of genre's    Don't really know what other people say, but these headphones are awesome. Good bass, great mids and highs. I listen to metal, acoustic, edm, dubstep and rap. Unless you are a hard basshead then these are...

Buy a quality headphone and cheap 10 dollar zalman clip on mic. Gaming headsets have poorer sound quality and are sort of one dimensional.
