I did notice a difference between the 60 and the 125, but that difference was slight. I always assumed that difference was due to the different pads. When I listen to the 60 with bowls, there's a striking improvement. I think the 60 with bowls or the quarter mod will save you the price...

Wait a bit. Next week, Shure's coming out with some new sets of headphones. One's priced at what you're asking for, around 49.99. Should be the best quality for that price.

I'm going to say, don't buy the SR60i. I did and I'm disappointed I did, and it's $70 down the drain. I can sell it off, but it's a matter of how much money I lose. There's no clarity anywhere. Acoustic instruments sound muted. Guitars sound metallic. The natural resonance guitars produce when...

How long do these have to be burned in before they sound really good? I just got one, and it's not what I expected. Objectively, they're very good for the price, but I thought there's supposed to be an up-front sound to them. Will this come later, or is this pretty much it. It's nearing the 24...

To answer the original question, it's not the error that'll shy me away from the company. It's how the company responds to it. I won't accept being mistreated. I won't tolerate a company that feels they're doing the customer a favor by selling them a product, because it's the other way...

I tried out some low end Grado's recently, and I really like how the sound appears to originate somewhere close to you, but I don't like how the lower notes are blurry. I demo'd them listening to a symphony, and I noticed there was a "bass cloud." The cellos and string bass produced a persistent...

Would someone describe the k702 sound?

So how do they SOUND? What're they most comparable to?

You know how you get the HF2 value up to $1200? ....You exaggerate like hell on your reviews. I'm deaf in both ears, but I can tell you they sound like heaven!!!
