Wireless In-Ear Headphones (Powerbeats2 / Jaybirds / etc. for Gym and such)
Thank you so much for the response. Have you tried hers at all? I'd love to hear a comparison. I've never bought into the Beats hype as most of their stuff was sub par in the past. However, these are supposed to be quite good and the Jaybirds are always well revered. It's extremely hard to...- Melee

Wireless In-Ear Headphones (Powerbeats2 / Jaybirds / etc. for Gym and such)
Anyone at all? I'd like to purchase a pair by tomorrow morning from Amazon so I can have them here on Tuesday. I'm mainly asking are there any alternative options besides these two that are worth mentioning and if not, which of these two would you recommend and why? Thank you.- Melee

Wireless In-Ear Headphones (Powerbeats2 / Jaybirds / etc. for Gym and such)
I am looking for a great pair of headphones that are wireless (Bluetooth I'm sure) and sit in my ear well enough so that they don't slide out. I will be using these for the Gym, doing chores around the house, working on my car, etc. They will be my headphones for when I am moving around. I have...- Melee

Headphones for Gaming & Music / Movies?
I've recently gotten back into competitive gaming and I also watch a lot of movies and listen to music nonstop. It's probably a 50/50 split of priority between gaming and movies/music. I've normally used headsets like Astro A40 or Sennheiser PC360 but I've been looking through prices of...- Melee

Best "Starter" Headphones? - HiFiMan HE-400 / AKG K712 / Sennheiser HD650 / Sennheiser HD600
Yes, I like the Velours much better than the Pleather pads. It doesn't completely fix the issues I had with the sound but it greatly improves the overall airiness and open type of sound with them. How would I go about doing that? I'm assuming I would need to do it on my computer since the...- Melee

Best "Starter" Headphones? - HiFiMan HE-400 / AKG K712 / Sennheiser HD650 / Sennheiser HD600
I actually saw them and considered it for quite a while. (They are sold now.) However, I know they are actually heavier than the HE-400s while still having the same "basic" tonality plus needing additional amplification so I figured they probably weren't for me. Thank You for the heads up...- Melee

Thanks a lot for all of the help. (By the way, aren't the Beyerdynamic headphones supposed to be known for their brightness? I actually was considering them but scratched them off the list after reading many people mentioning their fatiguing treble. Aside from those and the three brands...- Melee

I'm not sure if this is the correct place for this question so forgive me if I'm posting this in the wrong forum. This will all be connected to my PC so I figured this would be a good place to ask. :) I'm looking for a microphone to pair with my new setup that I'll finish tomorrow. A huge...- Melee

One more quick question if you guys don't mind. What Amp/Dac Combo would you guys recommend to pair with the HE-400s and HD600s? I searched everywhere but, as usual, read completely split opinions depending on where it was posted. Normally, it seems, people struggle to be unbiased and simply...- Melee

Schiit Magni + Modi for HiFiMan HE-400?
I just purchased a pair of HE-400s and I'm trying to find a nice Amp + DAC Setup to pair with them. I'm looking to spend around $150-$200 on the final pieces and from what I've read, the Magni + Modi stack seem to be excellent performance for the price and the best plug and play setup anywhere...- Melee
