Basshead headphones for ~$70?
Looking for some headphones that are good all around, but with great bass, for about $70. I would be purchasing through Amazon. They need to be somewhat easy to drive. I listen to a lot of hip-hop and EDM, and I listen to some pop, rock, and alt. I would also like them to be circum-aural. ...- PCunicorn

REVIEW: Ostry KC06A - A New Winner
The cord on my KC06As is stretchy, and on my cord split V thing, there's a series of letters (BBCHPW), unlike the pictures (where it says KC06A). Are these quirks unusual? I scanned the QR code and it says they're genuine but I imagine the QR code could be copied from another pair. My last pair...- PCunicorn

Basshead IEMs, $65, no fakes
I'm looking for some IEMs that have a ton of high quality bass, along with good mids and and highs. Not too hard, right? Here's the weird part: they need to be sold by Amazon. Not fulfilled by Amazon, actually sold by Amazon. This basically means no Chinese IEMs, such as Xiaomi, Ostry, etc. The...- PCunicorn

IEMs for around $80 - All types of music but tight bass a must
Ostry KC06As have fantastic, very tight bass, and overall are great headphones for the price so you might want to look into those. Sony MDR-XB90EXs have an extreme bass quantity from what I've heard around the forums, and are overall pretty decent.- PCunicorn

Ostry Anti-Forgery code?
Hey all, I got a new pair of Ostry KC06As off Amazon (E-Cyber Deals is the seller). I bought them knowing they could be fake, but I knew I'd be able to tell for sure with the Anri-Forgery code that is supposed to be printed on the warranty papers. However, I can't seem to find it, and Ostry's...- PCunicorn

REVIEW: Ostry KC06
Hey all, I listen to a lot hip-hop/gangsta rap (I know there's a circlejerk against it hereon Head-Fi, but it's what I listen to so what can I say), as well as EDM, pop, and some alternative. So, I want good bass, but also great mids since I have a bit of trouble with understanding lyrics with...- PCunicorn

Budget IEMs for several types of music?
Hi all, I'm looking for some IEMs that are around $30 (slightly flexible). They need to be somewhat durable. I listen to several different genres of music which makes picking headphones somewhat difficult. My primary genre atm is hip-hop/gangsta rap so I want good mids (I think), but I also...- PCunicorn

Xiaomi Piston 3 (2015)
Can anybody link some good tips for these for around $5? I've heard good things about the fake Sony Hybrids, but I can't find them. To anybody who has them, can you tell me if they improve the sound quality, and could you give me a link?- PCunicorn

Well these are all on a really good sale, so I'm not really looking at anything different. I mostly listen to all kinds of Electronica, more Trap than anything really.- PCunicorn

Sony MDR-XB50: All of your basses...all of them.
Sadly not really good at EQing, though never really tried. But, I have heard that a small nozzle on the tips=less treble, more bass. And the XB50's stock tips have tiny nozzles. So I was thinking of getting some larger nozzeled eartips on it. Do you think it will help at all? Have you tried? ...- PCunicorn

Sony MDR-XB50: All of your basses...all of them.
They probably just use the same housing then, which does happen from time to time. I will definitely think about exchanging them but I guess I should give them a fair chance first. They certainly excel in bass, it's just it seems that whenever I listen to music the lyrics seem drowned out when...- PCunicorn

Sony MDR-XB50: All of your basses...all of them.
Hey, I just bought the XBA 50s, not sure how I feel about them. The mids and highs just seem to recessed for my liking. How do they compare to your new earbuds? I was thinking of exchanging these for vPulses which, if you're correct, are the same as your new earbuds.- PCunicorn
