Ath esw9, Phiaton ms 400, V-moda m80
I know tons of reviews and opinions are all over this forum about these headphones, but I couldn't find any that are directly comparing these 3 to each other. I've gathered that they all sound pretty similar & they all look good (to me). Is there a clear winner that stands out from the...- mLink

Full-size equivalent to Monster Turbine Copper?
Looking for some advice/feedback on this situation: I have a pair of Monster Turbine Coppers, which I love the sound of. But they make my ears tired on extended listening sessions because of their weight. I'm looking for an over-ear equivalent to the coppers. The sound signature...- mLink

Upgrade from RE0, disliked HD 25-1 II ~$200
Maybe sibilant is the wrong term, in pretty new to the whole headphone thing. Its highs are very shrill and fatiguing, like some notes make me squint my eyes and cringe a bit. I need to edit my first post about the re0, the bass isn't sloppy, but lacking, and does not have good extension to me...- mLink

Upgrade from RE0, disliked HD 25-1 II ~$200
murano - Yes, I've tried them with real sony hybrid tips. In fact, that's what's on them now. I suppose I was just in a sour mood when I started this thread. The sound of the RE0 is enjoyable, I just would like a bit thicker involving sound. It's the rough metal ridges that I dislike...- mLink

Upgrade from RE0, disliked HD 25-1 II ~$200
I'm not necessarily attached to the sound signature of the re0, warmer and fuller sounds like what I may be after. The outlet is monster's official one from their main site. It's $99 for refurbished turbine gold and copper.- mLink

Upgrade from RE0, disliked HD 25-1 II ~$200
Just saw in the deals thread that Monster Turbine Pro Coppers are in the outlet for $99. Also, I've seen Shure 215's at earphonesolutions.com for $99 w/ 15% off. Should I return my hd25 and get the turbines or shures? Would either of them suit me?- mLink

Upgrade from RE0, disliked HD 25-1 II ~$200
Sorry to create a new thread for this, but my budget, situation and preferences have changed since my last one. Current headphones and my dislikes about them: RE0 - rough metal scrapes my ear, thin sounding, sloppy bass when it's there, the cables tie themselves in knots...microphonics...- mLink

Need a usb DAC / amp for my HD25 1-II
brrgrr, thanks for that link. It's a tad overwhelming, but it gets the job done. Jonnip, great! Looking forward to your impressions on the pair. I can raise my budget up to $300 if needed, since this will likely be the only amp/dac I buy for a while. Lately I've been considering the iBasso D4...- mLink

Upgrading from RE-0 - $300 budget
Yeah, I realize it's a demanding list, I'll go back and trim it to show only the priorities. I've been looking into Monster Turbine Pro Copper, DBA-02 (seem hard to find though), ATH-ESW9A, IE8 (may not work with my small ears), UE Triple.fi 10, & Westone 3.- mLink

Upgrading from RE-0 - $300 budget
When I first got my RE-0, I loved them. It was the first time I was hearing all the details and nuances in songs I had been missing. But, I've grown a bit tired of them. They are too thin, cold sounding, un-involving, and borderline fatiguing. I'm looking for some IEM's or on-ears up...- mLink

First full-size headphones - ($300)
So far, I have only had earphones, Sleek-Audio SA1, and a set of RE0. This will be my first set of full-sized headphones. A friend let my try out his Grado SR80i, but they sounded a bit too similar to the RE0, in my opinion. I'm looking for something very musical with fairly tight bass...- mLink
