I recently purchased a set of the Sennheiser 630vb with the rotary bass dial. I really like them but sometimes I feel like the amount of bass they produce varies...without me touching the dial. They always sound good but occasionally after listening for a little while the sound seems to take on...

Ok so a few years ago I was into iems. I started with the shure e4c which I loved, and were my first experience with good transducers...until the cable broke. After that I picked up a less expensive but well regarded (at the time) pair...the klipsch s4... and enjoyed them. Than I went on a bit...

So I just finally sprang for a set of these. It is really ironic because around the time these came out in Japan I was actually over there. I was riding my bike around with a friend and we stopped to look at cameras. I saw a big bin of these phones for the equivalent of $40 a piece and when I...

Sorry, I am sure this has been asked elsewhere, but the thread is really long and it's just a quick question...   do these isolate well enough for, say, a public bus?   Thanks, Matt  

Sorry, slight change to my original post (which sadly got no answers)   I am between these three phones, mostly for electronic music (rev 2 is outside my budget)   any input is greatly appreciated...as a reference I have owned markl modded d5000's which I quite liked and really enjoyed...

Hi guys,   I would like to say in advance that your help is greatly appreciated!   I listen a ton of edm and am interested in getting one of these phones. Most of my music collection is high bitrate mp3s and I do spend some time listening to DI Radio, Pandora, etc straight through the...

I'm not a very dramatic person but I am really, really upset about this. I spent about 4 hours in Yodobashi camera in Japan testing many, many pairs of headphones with my preferred player and music. Eventually I found a set that really suited me. I am sure they are not everyone's cup of...

I am a huge fan of the m50, and as much praise as they get I think that they are marginalized a bit by the high end folks because of their low price. I am strongly considering the ah-d7000...but I would like to hear some opinions regarding how much of an improvement they are over the m50 to...

I said it is considered the best, not that it is. The j3 (an updated s9) has garnered plenty of praise for sq and I am pretty certain for everyone that says it isn't good there would be someone who says it is. I feel it was a viable player to use for my testing.

a cowon j3 was used, considered to have the best audio quality of any mp3 player At this point most of what I would say has been repeated ad nauseum on these forums and would serve only to waste the time of those who read it, so I will simply say that everything I have read and observed has led...

I don't mean to be rude here, but have you ever engaged in blind tests pitting FLAC against high bit-rate mp3s or different headphone amps? any empirical evidence anywhere that it isn't just psychoacoustics?

This has more to do with what was going on a couple of pages back, but anyway I got the chance to test drive a bunch of headphones last weekend...among them were the hd800, hd650, hd600, Ultrasone edition 8, audio technica ath-w5000, Alessandro MS2, AKG-K702.... all were listened to with...
