Which one should I get??   I am looking for some under 100$ headphones with powerful bass.  I am upgrading from my sennheiser hd202's, so I am hoping one of these will outdo those in terms of overall sound quality, not just bass.   I'll be plugging these straight into my ipod classic and...

So I'm thinking of buying the m50's too, but I'm a little skeptical... I currently love the sound signature of my sony mdr-ex71's, so will these provide as much bass as those? I know it's bad to compare an iem to over ear headphones, but that's just the sound signature I'm looking for. As for...

I am currently looking for some new over-ear headphones in the <100$ range. I am a huge fan of the Sony mdr-ex71's sound signature.. I'm a huge fan of how pronounced the drums are, and I love how much bass they have. I'm no audiophile, but I have a specific sound I'm looking for. Just for...

would wilson be willing to exchange my x3i's for the xbi's if i am not satisfied with the sound quality? I ask this because i might want that extra bass the xbi offers. i hope the x3i's dont sound like the ath-ck7s, which (imo) lack the lower mids and upper bass, the "fullness" that i love in...

yeah so far i find these to be a bit too bright for my tastes...either that or im not used to them yet. jw, does anybody know how these compare to the mylarone x3i's? do the x3i's have more lower end than the ck7's? if thats the case i might want to try those out. the x3i's might have the...

yeah i realize its much too early to draw conclusions; these are just my initial impressions right out of the box. i suppose i am just used to the sound sig of my ex71's, which i do really like. i'll give em a week or so of critical listening. then i'll compare them to my ex71's. i just...

I play mine with a creative zen v plus with no amp. I have been looking for canal phones that sound great with no amp preferably.

alright so after hours upon hour of research, i finally bit the bullet and bought myself a pair of ck7's. they just arrived at my place this afternoon and i have been doing some critical (un amped) listening since then. upon putting them in my ears, they are definitely very comfortable and give...

wait, are u saying the ck7's arent that great without an amp? cuz i dont do any of that amplifier stuff, so are ck7's not my best choice if i dont amp?

i am in between these two at the moment...which should i get?! SQ for both is supposed to be awesome, i just cant come to a decision. i mainly listen to rock, and i'll be using my creative zen v-plus, so which would i prefer more? As for the X3i's, is the durability a still an issue, or...
