    Skullcandy Grind

    How do these compare to the Aviators in soundstage, bass and clarity?

    [Review] Rock Jaw Acero, a closed headphone with a rather airy sound

    Just got these from Amazon for £20 and they do sound airy with plenty enough bass and mildly energetic upper mids.  How would you compare the soundstage to the psb m4u1 or nad viso 50?  I would say that my open back akg k612 sounds more refined in soundstage and more balanced tone but I like the...

    What if you could only have one headphone....or two. What would you choose?

    Tascam TH-MX2/Prodipe 3000 closed headphones, as they have a nice warm and neutral sound with quite good sub bass.  I wrote a review about them here on headfi.   Portables:  Philips FX5m closed headphone, they have a fun bassy sound signature with clear highs.

    Clones of the Tascam MX2.  Build quality of the headset is strong, the metal sliders have a good grip when adjusting the size.  Quite comfortable.  2.7% of reviews mention about jack plug failures. Come in a selection of colors, white, black/red or black.   Sound quality.  Very flat neutral...

    Closed back version of Philips X2 in existence?

    Can you compare the a5 pro with your hd650?  What about soundstage and detail?

    Philips A5-PRO "Armin Van Buuren Collaboration" (Owners and impressions)

    Sorry I have not heard the ath m50 and I don't have anyone around to hear how leaky they sound.  Yeah Philips have upped their game, having brought out the x1 in 2012 and then the x2 and the a5 in 2014, all flagship headphones.

    Review by 'Star2806' on item 'A5-Pro, PHILIPS-HEADPHONES'

    I was looking for an alternative to my PSB M4U1 as they are a bit strident in the treble.  I won the A5 Pro on ebay for £70 and I am very pleased with them.    Comfort - after 1 and a half hours the top of my head aches a bit from the lack of soft padding on the headband.  Not a problem since...

    Review by 'Star2806' on item 'BRAINWAVZ HM5 Studio Monitor Headphones'

    I have the Studiospares M1000, identical to the HM5 and won them on ebay for £26 which was an absolute bargain.  The Studiospares retail brand new for £64 plus delivery.   They have a secure clamp pressure but are comfortable due to the thick, soft pads.  I like the secure feeling that they...

    Philips A5-PRO "Armin Van Buuren Collaboration" (Owners and impressions)

    The a5 pro is superior to the sony 100aap.  More detail in the highs, punchier bass, more accurate soundstage.  Sony is more comfortable and has more sub bass, and a little bit more emphasis on female vocals.  The a5 can be bought cheap on ebay, around the same price as the sony.  Originally the...
