shs-840 - atm50 or dt770 ?
I second the SRH-840. Its truly unbeatable for $200 USD, and I love it with rock. I've compared my Shures with top-tier headphones like the K701 and the PRO990 and still find the only thing that beats them is the ath esw-10, and that's more than double the price of the 840.- TheBananaMan

Need SRH840 Pads..
Are you sure they don't sell any on ebay? Go check the for sale/trading forums, if somebody on headfi is selling theirs, thats where you'll find them. good choice with the 440's btw.- TheBananaMan

Shure SRH-840 for $119
Quote: Wait until after the headband loosens up a little. After I've owned mine for about half a year and its all loosened up, I can say it's without a doubt one of the most comfiest headphones I've worn out of the 20-30 that I've demo-ed.- TheBananaMan

Best open cans around 100$
FWIR, the AD700 has a good soundstage. I've seen quite a few people use it for gaming. But I cant vouch for it, I've never heard it before.- TheBananaMan

Have i missed something in Skullcandy
Quote: Too true. If only good headphone brands spent some money on marketing, there wouldnt be bankrupt students with monster beats and SC on their heads :\. They would have at least spent their hard-earned money on something worthwhile.- TheBananaMan

Supraaural vs. Circumaural for noise isolation?
I mean without noise cancellation. I know IEMs are better but it's just between those two headphone types.- TheBananaMan

Normal uninformed people (that you would find at yahoo answers) think skullcandy is good, since they know nothing about headphones. Us at headfi know the truth about skullcandy, that it sounds like utter crap. You didnt think that the people at yahoo answers would actually know what they're...- TheBananaMan

Supraaural vs. Circumaural for noise isolation?
Title says it all. I thought supraaural cans had better noise isolation than circumaural but I'm seeing different views now, which is better for noise isolation in general? Or are they both the same?- TheBananaMan

Another request thread! I'm looking for IEMs
Hmm i considered the RE0's but from what I've heard the mids are recessed and laid-back, and I'm looking for aggressive and forward IEMs. What do you guys think about the RE0 in terms of how warm it is and it's aggressiveness? Also, why is the RE0 ranked #2 in ALL headphones, right under the...- TheBananaMan

Bose IE(1?) earbuds went through the wash and lost the little mesh screen thing....
Not unless you don't clean your ears regularly... But over time other stuff like dust and dirt or sand could get in and damage the drivers.- TheBananaMan

Another request thread! I'm looking for IEMs
Hi everyone, I'm looking for warm and forward/aggressive noise-isolating IEMs for about $100. I love soundstage and detail (especially in mids/highs), so a good soundstage and detail is also needed. Also, I dont mind replacing the stock silicon earbuds for foamies or whatever for noise isolation...- TheBananaMan

Any way to make more than one folder on Sony PSP?
Hi, I'm using a PSP as my portable source (mainly since I've owned it for 5 years for games and don't feel like spending $300 on another source when my PSP can play music), with 16gb memory. Question: How do I make a folder within a folder show up on the PSP? When I do it on my computer...- TheBananaMan
