holy crap, hundreds ordered k99s instead of the advertised k702???  

Im a happy owner of an HFI-780 and have considered upgrading to the PRO 900 but after hearing thios APPALLING tale of woeful and plain rude customer service, i will NOT be purchasing another Ultrasone product until yyour customer adn warranty support is properly sorted out.   Ultrasone, get...

Hmmm, last i heard, soundstage is not the exclusive domain of open phones, and closed phones can have soundstage albeit not as expansive as open phones.  

@Skylab & IceNine   Im a dx700 owner myself, wondering what its like on the other, more expensive side, hehe.   I got the dx700 for two main reasons: Bass and Soundstage (OK, isolation too, but thats the least important).   Ive read conflicting reports on the Bass differnces of the...

I just want to drop in and say this is an AWESOME thread. Really educational and a fun read. Kudos to the OP.   Lucozade, i dont know if its already been asked, but youve already tried almost every high end universal IEM there is....do you see a jump to the customs bandwagon soon? arent you...

Suicide AND the last albums they recorded before they died? I know Basment was released posthumously, while Kurt, Nick and Ian lived to see Unplugged, Pink Moon and Closer released. oh, and i agree with all of them, and ill add Jeff Buckley - Grace to the mix

If portability is a major factor, get the HD-25s. But if you plan to use it on at home, or at work at a desk, etc. Shure 840s all the way. I traded my HD-25's for the 840s and never looked back. Soundstage, bass, and clarity all go to the Shures.

Heh, I was just about to post Hooked on Bach. There is a special place in my heart for the utter monstrosity that is Nessun Dorma as performed by Manowar

Blood on the Tracks here. "Youre an idiot babe, its a wonder that you still know how to breathe" Yup, that does it for me.

ah yes, a bunch of elitist headphone geeks bash a headphone brand they have never heard, based solely on its "street cred" (or lack thereof) and the fact that it's popular with the kiddies nowadays. Seriously, anyone who hasnt really used them in actual grueling travel conditions oughta lay...
