I know ebay has an article on how to spot the fakes, no time to post a link but will asap.

Alright, I've been interested in a new set of on ear headphones, the Soundmagic P21. The only place I have found them for a moderate price and good shipping is this amazon link...

Im just wondering why the review of these seems to be so harsh, as they have been used for years in studios, and on radio, mixing, sound editing, etc. it seems very strange that such a commonly used headphone can have so much sibilance and sharpness?

i know this is old, but would you mind doing this test with a pair of ath m50s? I am questioning the sound integrity of mine. I paid 65 , but feel like they are very clearly worth it. I want to see how you address their high and low points.

I know this is an old thread, butp people will be reading this in the future. My ath m50s are hands down the best value for the price. Because I paid 65 new from a friend ;) but the sound signature youre talking about reminds me of the sony xb 500 and xb series.

I am using the ATH m50 Reds right now, and I'm actually wondering if I should by the sony mdr v6's. One thing I can say is that the Sony's definitely have a bigger frequency response. This is all from memory, and correct me if Im wrong. The frequency response of the Sony's is from 5hz-30khz. In...

I haven't had jvc or the sony's you're talking about. However the headphones I have had from sonny are the mdr xb400s, which I highly recommend. very comfy unless you're super sweaty. Good bass, pretty clear. For the price range, under 60 bucks online, there's the sony xb series.

Update, one of the amps is a FiiO E11

I have had multiple headphones. Koss porta pro dj are great, enjoyed the shure and sony xb. I'm researching amps to use on ath m50 right now. for my personal preference I like the m50s, I loved them before I knew how popular they were. they're on my head right now and I got them for 65 bucks new...

has anybody tried the ath m40x pads for replacement?

I agree with most of this. But I paid for the limited edition red version brand new at a local pawn shop. for 65 DOLLARS. so I love these because of their price point. They're great for all around stuff. are they my number one choice? Not always. but for what I paid I couldn't be happier. these...

By the mids sounding lower I meant that they can be recessed at times.

I am using the limited edition red ones as I type this. They are my personal favorite because they're easy to use when mobile for an ipod or phone, but also great in the studio. I feel that the bass is very smooth, and the treble doesn't seem sharp to me. The mids can sound a little bit lower...

Alright guys, I'm new here. I became a member today, but have used this site since I was 16. I have had multiple headphones, from Skullcandy to Beats (crap) to my now Sennheiser and the ones I bought to replace my Audio Technica m30x. my AT m50s <3 I've got great sounding headphones for...
