Pleasantly surprised by Beyer DT770-80
Despite my impression of the dt770-80 as being too bright when I auditioned it at Guitar Center over a year ago, I recently decided to pick up a pair to try again. (When I initially auditioned the beyers at GC, they were not amped and the test disc I used was not bassy enough. I figured that it...- Murdoch

Cheeseless power metal recommendations needed!
I've been devouring Blind Guardian, Iced Earth and Demons & Wizards releases lately, and would love to explore some more power metal with clean vocals, but I'm pretty turned off by the cheese thats out there. I sampled some Rhapsody at the record store and was totally turned off. Can you all... -

Amped Portapro for home use?
I'm enjoying my ksc-75 more and more when I'm on the go. So much so that I'm thinking of picking up a portapro to use at home just for fun. Anyone use an amped porta-pro on their home rig? I'm curious to know what the result is like.- Murdoch

Just how bright is the dt990?
I've searched threads on these beyers and what I've read suggests every thing from bright to dark. Headroom describes them as having "strident" highs, though again relative to what? On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being dark as a hd650 and 10 being as bright as a sr325 with bowl pads, just how...- Murdoch

Minimum (reasonable) amplification requirements for hd650?
I am planning on getting an hd650 someday- hopefully soon- and am wondering how well my headsave classic will serve as its amp. I wouldn't expect any miracles, but its my hope that the classic will drive the hd650 acceptably, since there's no way I can upgrade my amp for a looonnngggg time. If...- Murdoch

ksc75 questions
I'm looking for not-too-bright sub-$30 phones. Am I right in thinking that the ksc75 meet this criterion? They're based on the porta-pro drivers I think, so that suggests to me that they are bassy. Also, I wear wire-framed glasses. Would there be a comfort problem wearing the phones and...- Murdoch

HD 555 impressions
Yesterday I received my new HD 555, which I got for the excellent price of $117 shipped from www.X10.com. I've been listening to them through the first 10 hours of burn in and so far my impression of these phones is VERY positive. I got these to replace my sr-125 which was just too aggressive...- Murdoch

Bass on my K240S is pretty tight!
There have been many posters who cite at least one major flaw with the AKG K240S, that the bass can be "loose" or "bloated". After reading the flurry of new threads on these phones here over the past day or so, I thought I'd give my 240s another critical listen, paying particular attention to...- Murdoch

I'm getting a puppy!
Actually he's about 6 months old according to the shelter staff, so more of an adolescent than a true puppy. He's a cute little guy, looks to be a beagle, shepherd, smooth fox terrier mix. He's got a short beagle coat, fox terrier stature and ears, and german shepherd-ish tail and head. He's...- Murdoch

Choosing a closed phone is difficult... DT250-80 or A900?
I've been conisdering several closed phones and am seriouly stuck. I need isolation and good bass, but I'm a little sensitive to highs and I don't want anything ear-drum piercing. I'm also hoping to get some refinement in the bargain too. I was considering the DT250-80 on account of the...- Murdoch
