To shortly interrupt the discussion of ludicrously expensive orthowhatever headphones handcrafted from neutron star material by space dwarves in the center of a black hole... ;)   The ATH-M50s are really, really nice and pretty much exactly what i was looking for. The bass is perfect. They...

Figured this is the right place to ask: Currently driving a pair of Creative Aurvana Live (a.k.a. Denon D-1001) from onboard sound (ALC 889, 2 ohm output impedance, so that is quite okay for these headphones i assume), but i would like to see if a (cheap obviously, since the CAL cost me around...

Quote: Thanks, i actually just tried EQing the DT770s (reduced subbass a bit and raised midbass) and they already feel quite a bit faster. Punch is rather lacking though, and somehow the bass while being strong just has is not very defined. Is this what i could expect from a DT990? If the...

Thanks for all the suggestions, will try them out over the next few weeks prolly.   Besides the HD380 i also plan on testing the Creative Aurvana Live, all the reviews indicate that it has good and fast bass and is very comfortable. (Anyone ever annoy his CALs with some gabber or speedcore...

Uhhh, how about something a bit more affordable? ;)   150€ / 200$ is my limit, at least for a while. (And the problem with all the headphones i tried was not them sounding "bad", just not really working with fast bass-heavy music, so i hope theres something in the lower priceranges that's...

Ugh.   I'm looking for Headphones (open or closed is not that important) with good, decently deep and punchy (at least Sennheiser HD25-1 level) FAST bass. Just ones that are actually somewhat comfortable to wear with glasses. For home use, portability is a bonus but not important.   I...

Quote:   Yes if your Soundcard has an integrated Headphone-Amp you might as well get the 250 Ohm version, it is supposed to sound quite a bit better than the 80 Ohms from an amped source. But I mthink the FiiO E6 is a bit too small for these, they have one that goes for around 60...

Quote: I've been using 003Ti's since 2 days, and i wear glasses and am usually quite picky about headphone comfort. After stretching them on a ~16 cm wide box for a couple hours they are REALLY comfortable to wear. It helps that they sound so good that i forget where i am anyways. ;)

So my FA-003Ti's arrived yesterday. I love the sound a lot, but have a question: With the velour pads instead of the pleather ones these ones are ridiculously comfortable, but it seems to me there is noticable less bass. (Due to more distance between driver and ear maybe?) I heard about...

I remember reading somewhere on head-fi that there is a third kind of earpads sold for the HD 25 at some places (neither velour nor the fake leather that both come with them by default) Does anyone know anything about them?

I have a couple of questions about the 580's, as I'm thinking of buying them. (I love phones with good bass) 1. How is the comfort? I like to relax while listening to music, and with my current big cans, the Sennheiser HD 25's it's often not possible cause I always notice the headphones...

I'm curently using Creative EP 830 and i like the strong bass they have, but obviously they somewhat lack in details. I've spent some time looking for better IEMs with a similar sound signature, and have come up with 3 up to now: Fischer Audio Eterna Klipsch S4 Panasonic RP HJE900  ...

Ok i'm looking for decent headphones for bass-heavy electronic music. I've seen the Beyerdynamics DT770 recommended, but i'm still skeptical. I want headphones where i can actually feel the bass, like with for example the Creative EP830 IEMs. I currently have Sennheiser HD 25's, and they do...

Uhm, I hope I won't get laughed at for asking this here, but would the E1 help with driving Sennheiser HD 25's from an iPad? I just recently got the Sennheisers and they sound amazing on my Stereo but not quite as good on my iPad. I don't wanna spend a lot of money on a headphone amp, and...

I ordered HD 25's too and they arrived today. I love the sound, but i have one really big problem with them: Wearing them hurts, bad. Really bad. In fact i've got a headache right now after listening for 2 hours. :/ Are there any more comfortable headphones with similar sound in this...
