    IEMs ~$20

    I had the MEElectronics A161Ps for a while, but after the cord got screwed up so quickly with only low to moderate use I decided I am not wasting my time with anything more than $20. I just don't listen to them enough to warrant spending that much money to get something that, build quality wise...

    Broken Beyerdynamic DT-990s. Help!

    I found out that not only is the Q701 cable detachable, it has 2! A 3m and 6m cable! That covers all my listening situations perfectly, I'm sold. Literally already ordered. I'm excited :D

    Broken Beyerdynamic DT-990s. Help!

    I have a huge head man, those bumps are probably gonna be a problem for me then? I remember reading about that in reviews... how would you mod them?   I also have issues with rolling over cables with my chair, so yeah removable cable is nice.

    Broken Beyerdynamic DT-990s. Help!

    Ahhh good ol ATH M50s, I was gonna get those as my first cans but decided to go with the Ultrasone HFI-580s, kinda regret it because they hurt my ears. I actually really wanted the Q701s a while back too, they were higher priced then! God the black ones are sexy though. Those AD9000xs look...

    Broken Beyerdynamic DT-990s. Help!

    What about something closed back? Or would that change the sound too much? Sometimes I like to rock out when there's people around me lol.

    Broken Beyerdynamic DT-990s. Help!

    I came home tonight from my mom's to find my room cleaned. My grandpa did it apparently to get ready for Christmas dinner tomorrow. He took my headphones, stretched the nice coiled cord all out, wrapped it tightly around the cans, and somehow managed to bend the hell out of the band. Now they...

    Do I need an amp for Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250?

    Oh, the front one. I guess I should have tried the back too huh?

    Do I need an amp for Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250?

    So now the sale is over and the one with the EMI shield is $104. Do you still recommend getting that instead of an amp like the Magni or maybe the O2?

    Do I need an amp for Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250?

    So I went with the cheaper version... I received it yesterday, and I disabled and completely uninstalled the on-board sound stuff and installed the Sound Blaster Z. Everything was good at first, sound was perfect, it drives the DT990s nicely (: But then today I notice when I start games (Far...

    Do I need an amp for Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250?

    Do I need an amp for Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250?

    So I am buying these to use for my computer. My motherboard is an Asus M5A99fx Pro, and I have no idea what it has in it for DAC or amp although it seems really good and I would think it should cause its a pretty new mobo, but then again my current headphones (Ultrasone DJ1) are easy to drive...

    Headphones sound worse when tired.

    I will be really tired, all I will feel like doing is sleeping. But then I will really wanna enjoy some music, and the headphones sound lame. The sound is really irritating and uncomfortable no matter what the song. Sucks.

    IEMs between $100 and $200?

    Quote: Aw damn the HF3s looked PERFECT. I love the look of them too, nice and sleek with a mic AND a straght plug (not a fan of the L shapes, they don't work well with iPods or phones in pockets) But, if he said they have a neutral sound wouldn't that be perfect for rock and metal cause...

    IEMs between $100 and $200?

    So I am looking into getting some IEMs and my budget is between $100 and $200.   I listen lots of rock and metal, very very few hip-hop artists once in a while, random electronic stuff every once in a while. Rock/metal is the main thing, so bass isn't really important.   I do like to...
