HD600 cable upgrade (NewFantasia 1.5 meter)
Hey hey hey, I am a producer and just purchased the Sennheiser HD600 for mixing and mastering as it was available for a decent price on amazon.

Best set of cans under $150?
So I just received my XPT100s today, and I am pretty impressed, although they sound pretty tight. I will have to let them break in a bit before I develop an opinion... From what I can tell so far, vocals and woodwinds sound fantastic, but the bass is rolled off. When I connected my Fiio E12 they...- theriseoftroy

Old 'phones: Koss Pro-4a. Anyone have any info?
I just picked up a set of these for $9 at a Goodwill store. I couldnt resist the price. It will be interesting to see how they sound with a Mont Blanc and I am going to try to find new earpads if theyre worth it...- theriseoftroy

Best set of cans under $150?

Best set of cans under $150?
Thank you all for the great responses. I think I will go with the XPT100s. I hear that they have a really great soundstage for a closed can. It will be interesting to compare them to my K550s... I purchased them from Sonix and they were $99 which I am fine with paying. I was looking at the...- theriseoftroy

Need help!
I do listen to quite a bit of electronic, but not much EDM. I think I will cross them off because of the over-emphasized bass... How are the v6s different from the prodj100s?- theriseoftroy

Maybe even the Brainwavs HM5 or the NVX Audio XPT100. Both of which I have read decent reviews on.- theriseoftroy

Thinking of modding a set of Koss PortaPro instead of buying more expensive cans... Recommendations?
Im thinking of modding a set of Koss PortaPros instead of purchasing something a bit more expensive such as the Beyer DT770s or K701/K702/Q701.
