The AKG K550 Impressions and Discussion Thread!
Just got a k550 and its quite gorgeous. I have to play with it a bit each time to get a good seal but once that is accomplished it is very competent. I'm going to compare it directly to the q701 that I love. So far after about 30 min of comparing I have come to these quick conclusions. Keep...- jaja

AKG Q701 Headband Upgrade
Just for you I took off the headband on my dt880 and used it with my q701. It can kinda sorta wrap around the akg's headband and stay put using the outer buttons. Its not gonna wrap around however. It might not look the best on top because of this. Also it might not work with a big head...- jaja

AKG Q701 Austria made vs China with picture.
The longer I listen the general sound characteristic is the same. Something about the imaging might be a tad different not for the better but still satisfying. The soundstage might actually be wider very slight. The midrange to me feels a SMIDGE more recessed and slightly less revealing...- jaja

AKG Q701 Austria made vs China with picture.
Apparently they are both held to the same standards but who knows. Of course they would say that. But I think it is safe to say that their cut backs in production costs have not really changed performance in a obvious or negative way. The headband is indeed better in comfort. They don't dig...- jaja

Vmoda Crossfade LP, Why all the bad reviews?
Tried out my friends LP for a few minutes and I immediately contorted my face. Not for me. It didn't sound bad or offensive just very muddy and recessed. The bass itself was WAY too much. To much slam for me and lots of bleed into the lower mids. Speaking of mids they seem more recessed to...- jaja

AKG Q701 Austria made vs China with picture.
So a little over a month ago my Austria made q701's broke. One side stopped working all together and instead of going through the hassle of fixing it or possibly braking it I sent it in for warranty since it was within the 2 year period. Well once that was taken care of I waited for about 2...- jaja

VSONIC GR07 Impressions Thread
Just received my GR-07 MK2. Pretty impressed. I wasn't blown away though. It could use a little more extension on the upper end. Sibilance is not really there when using the foam tips. I also find these a bit bass tipped but the presentation of the bass is enveloping and quite satisfying. ...- jaja

Sennheiser HD518 HD558 HD598 HD559 HD589 HD579 HD599 Support Thread
I just got my HD558's and removed the foam right off the bat. Even out of the box I'm enjoying these. Quite wonderful mid range is what was first apparent to me. This is me comparing to akg q701's. The mids actually sound fuller than the akg's. Female vocals as you guys pointed out sound...- jaja

My Little Pony Discussion thread
I have the DJ PON 3 ones that I got just for fun. They sound like utter ass. I don't even want to listen to them casually. From what I can remember they were extremely muddy in the low mids with very hyped upper mid bass. Low bass is flabby and loose. Detail on the upper in is literally non...- jaja

My Little Pony Discussion thread
Thanks a lot man it looks damn sweet. Rockin it on my skype as well. After looking at the white ones I kinda wish I had gotten them haha. And yea, I can see an improvement in the headband. The curvature of it looks to be better. If you could give me a higher res that would be sweet. It...- jaja

Comfort from AKG K240 Studio is absolutely terrible
Quote: Im pretty tired at the moment so I won't write too much. You can certainly use an eq for the bass I have before. The soundstage for the 770 id say is 4/5ths that of the 880. The 990 I heard is even better. Id say the 770 has a few more db of sub bass. Its noticeable...- jaja

Comfort from AKG K240 Studio is absolutely terrible
Quote: All three of those beyers are gonna win by a good margin over the k240s. k240's aren't really balanced at all, bloated midbass, weird upper mid peak to me and rolled off highs. It's a somewhat colored sound for sure. K240S is still decent. After owning the k240S I returned...- jaja

Comfort from AKG K240 Studio is absolutely terrible
TBH the k240s is already pretty thick and emphasized on the midbass although not so much sub bass. I'd suggest the dt770 pro or dt990 for bass. The 990 has a wide soundstage as does the 770 for being closed. I own the 880 pro myself but its bass probably would not satisfy you as they are...- jaja

Beyerdynamic DT 880 Pro VS DT440
Quote: Thanks man. I use a lower end scarlett 2i2 interface. I produce a little bit on the side for fun. Thinking about getting a standalone amp though that isn't too pricey. But yea I was surprised by the 440. I also remember hearing the 880 for the first time and I was a...- jaja

Beyerdynamic DT 880 Pro VS DT440
So I own both of these headphones. First I owned the DT440 which I adored. The ball joints broke on both though after about 2 years. I picked up some DT880 pro's not long after. Today I resoldered the wires on the DT440 as they had separated earlier. The headband still is broken but I was...- jaja

Same ATH-M50 on Amazon with different price?
Quote: Haha, it is partially true. The m50 is a bit overratted. The soundstage and the excess bass was a bit of a turn off when I heard them. Still in that price range its a decent choice. So no hate. I just get annoyed when people say the m50 is boss and someone says something like...- jaja

Thoughts on Sennheiser HD439?
Quote: Totally agree about the mids and the rolled off highs. Im used to a much brighter sound signature too coming off of dt880 and akg q701. Im not really to bothered by the rolled of highs though. It makes it a more casual headphone that I can turn up more comfortably. However when I...- jaja

Thoughts on Sennheiser HD439?

Thoughts on Sennheiser HD439?
Saw the HD 439 at best buy for 35 bucks NEW on clearance. I was like whaaaaa so i got them and am pretty impressed(doesn't touch my dt880 or akgq701 though). I also own the HD 428. Upon first listen of the 439 I noticed the slightly more open sound stage and more extended upper...- jaja

Got Q701's and comparison to DT 880 pro
Yea the k240s was just meh. Apparently the older versions are better or so I hear. At the moment I am still getting some sibilance but it is tolerable and not unwelcome but once again I need more time with these. It seems to me that the soundstage is better than the 880's as I can pick stuff...- jaja

Got Q701's and comparison to DT 880 pro
I pretty much agree with everything you said and the more a listen to them the more aware I am of it. Which is why I said I think I have a new favorite headphone =). The 2i2 unfortunately is the only interface I have but it was a step up from a low end m audio I had and it really does lack...- jaja
