HD 25-1 II is a perfect portable headphone.   If it doesnt suit you, here you go...   http://www.head-fi.org/t/433318/shootout-107-portable-headphones-reviewed-astrotec-as-100hd-as-200hd-added-12-02-12

It is a dead horse!  

How portable do they need to be? What genres do you listen to? Why do you need active noise cancellation?   The D2000 is not really a good portable headphone.

Many people are recommending Dire Straits.  Are the remasters any good?

I enjoyed this post.  I hope to get the T1s someday.  Thanks for passing on what you've learned.

Just like a lot of things in life, with some people, it just pays to take the high road.  You know your headphones are better, and you like the sound and enjoy them, so do just that, and forget what they think.  It's ignorance on their part, just remember that and move on.  It's often the same...

Are you looking for portable use?  I am assuming if you're plugging into an iphone you are.  You can check this guide for many options!   http://www.head-fi.org/t/433318/shootout-100-portable-headphones-reviewed-fischer-audio-oldskool-70-and-oldskool-rpm-33-1-3-added-03-01-12

Denon AH-D2000, definitely!

For those looking to Electronics Expo, just keep checking, I think they regularly get a few items back in stock.  That said, that's how I recently impulse picked up the 7000s for pretty cheap, a little over 500 new, just checked every 30 mins to an hour.    And with that said, I don't have...

He isn't saying there is a special place to get them.  Just be on the lookout for deals.  Type "The Deals Thread" into the search bar.  Look there.  ElectronicsExpo recently had them for cheap, I believe.  Check the for-sale forum, etc.

So fitting that one of the posts floating on the top of the board right now is the "My Number One Gripe with Head-Fi Forum Members."  And don't call it hyperbole when it obviously wasn't.  People come here seeking advice, noobs like myself for example, and don't need statements like "M50 is only...

In this thread: http://www.head-fi.org/t/595146/beats-pro-vs-ultrasone-pro-900 someone says the bass in the pro900s makes their earlobes vibrate.  You can search for the pro900s and you'll probably get some good information.  The appreciation thread has thousands of posts.

Wow, yes, OOS again.  I guess for those looking for the deal just keep checking, seems they have a few in stock here and there.  I sent an email to try and find out how long the MARCH2012 coupon will be good for, but I've yet to hear back.  Hopefully some more folks can get them for this cheap.
