Monster Turbine Pro Copper (MTPC) for $199. Personally, I've never seen a lower price for them. http://www.amazon.com/Monster-Turbine-High-Performance-In-Ear-Speakers/dp/B002EL4RIO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338438235&sr=8-1- cjkb90

Monster Miles Davis Tribute thread
It definitely doesn't sound fake, as the sound is on par with the MTPC I had (I can't really decide which one I like best). My only question is, could it be a big problem that the filter is missing? I don't want my earphones to break down because of that.- cjkb90

Portable Headphones to replace Sony MDR-XB1000
I can't recommend anything other than the E9+E7 since this is the setup I have and I haven't heard anything pricier or better. Except perhaps the E9+E17, since from what I understand this allows you to use the bass boost function of the E17 through the E9. If you like the sound signature...- cjkb90

Monster Miles Davis Tribute thread
Hey guys, quick question. Just got the Tributes yesterday off ebay from a seller named Blinq. Loving the sound on these, they are replacing my Coppers which broke after two years but were luckily under Squaretrade warranty. I have checked youtube videos comparing originals to fakes, and...- cjkb90

Portable Headphones to replace Sony MDR-XB1000
The E7 will act as your sound card, so as long as you have it plugged in through USB, it will bypass your computer's sound card. It won't matter what your computer has. I'm not familiar with the sound card you named, but unless you specifically purchased a superior one, I'd say chances are that...- cjkb90

Portable Headphones to replace Sony MDR-XB1000
Hope its not too late to chip in. I've owned the ath m50s and currently have the XB1000. In my opinion, the XBs are superior in every single category, specially with regards to bass there is no comparison. Don't get me wrong, the ath m50s are the headphones I recommend most to friends who...- cjkb90

Senn HD 650 vs Sony XB 1000 for EDM
So I just posted this in another thread when someone asked me what I thought about them, so I figured that I might include it here in case anybody was in a similar situation as I was regarding EDM headphones (I still haven't heard the HD 650s but I'm pretty sure I will get them in about a year...- cjkb90

Sony MDR xb1000? NEw? OMG
The bass is unlike anything I've ever heard in headphones, it really goes all the way down in the frequency. I would say its not bloated or overemphasized, its tight and it makes its presence felt. I say its not overemphasized because it doesn't make you tired of listening. They are very...- cjkb90

Senn HD 650 vs Sony XB 1000 for EDM
Has anybody listened to both cans for EDM? I'm leaning towards the XB1000 at this point because I'm wary that I might be bored by the HD 650, although I'm afraid that the XB 1000 might not have good enough sound quality aside from the bass. I used to love my ATH M50s, but I listened to them...- cjkb90

Senn HD 650 vs Sony XB 1000 for EDM
I'd like to feel like im on a dancefloor, I guess what I meant by tight when describing the type of bass I look for, I mean something that isn't messy, that completely overpowers the mids. You know how theres people who have 3 subs in their cars and you can't hear anything but rumbling when they...- cjkb90

Senn HD 650 vs Sony XB 1000 for EDM
I've heard that the Ultrasone 900s are a bit too sharp. That bothered me with the DT 990s, I don't want my new cans to have the same problems. Would you agree or do you think that the high end isn't overemphasized?- cjkb90

Hey all, first off I'd like to express the immense appreciation that I feel for the Head Fi community, you guys have really helped me out over the last couple of years I've been lurking and sometimes posting. My Beyer DT 990s 600 Ohms are no longer functional, since one of the...- cjkb90

Beyerdynamic DT990/600 & FiiO E9 respect
So after reading so many threads here, I decided to buy the DT900 600 and the e9 to go with my e7, and I must say that I have been significantly underwhelmed. My previous setups consisted of the M50s or MTPC with the e7, and I was disappointed to find that the Coppers sounded noticeably superior...- cjkb90

A nice, "cheap" portable amp
ATH M50s do sound quite better amped though. IMHO, its better to enjoy your headphones at their max potential before upgrading. But, keep in mind I'm in the same position you are. I have an E5, but to my ears it mostly makes things louder, with a litte bit of improevment in sound quality. I use...- cjkb90

So, when using the Comply tips with my Coppers, I've been having some problems. After wearing them for a few hours, when I try to remove the earphones from my ears (sorry, the in-ear speakers ) the earphones come out but the tips stay deep inside my ears. I have tried both small and medium...- cjkb90
