"Buy It For Life" Basshead Cans - with replaceable headbands?
I shave my head and have somewhat oily skin, so I notice that eventually my headbands wear out after a few years. I am looking to ideally settle on one pair of (preferably) over ear headphones, with a solid / robust build quality, where the consumable / wear items like headband and cups can be...- DerangedGoose

Producing electronic music: Under 200 cans that dont color sound but will thump when asked to: HD 25 II or MDR 7506/V6?
I am looking for a pair of closed headphones for producing electronic music when I cant use monitors. I already have bassy cans for listening; I need a pair that wont color the sound too much, but will still come through with the bass when I am mixing and will allow me to hear/feel how much bass...- DerangedGoose

Good, bassy IEM's or wraparounds for bass-heavy music + working out under $50? My Senn. cx270 died
Ive been using sennheiser cx270 for a while and have been impressed with the sub bass. Unfortunately, the headphone jack has suffered damage to where one side will cut out in certain positions. It makes it hard to work out with them because cord vibrations will interrupt the sound. My research...- DerangedGoose

out of these three, which will give me the low-end boost im looking for? This review: http://www.headfonia.com/music-on-a-budget-sub-100-portable-amps-shootout/ says the PA2v2 is better suited to "fast aggressive music" like rock, whereas the jds cmoy was warmer and more midrange...- DerangedGoose

XB700 first impressions....I think I need the 1000?
Just got my refurbished XB700s in. I had to leave shortly after trying them out, but the bass didnt really blow me away. It has a lot (at least, for most people), but didnt really have THAT much more than my AKG K518, and I got the feeling that if the 518 had the same cushions to keep the sound...- DerangedGoose

Getting more bass out of the AKG K240
Apologies for the question-spree, but I want a straight answer before I start spending more money I picked up a pair of AKG K240s for producing music. I got them specifically because they were the most neutral in my price range (save for the fostex t50rp, apparently) and that I could run...- DerangedGoose

Those chinese tube amps on ebay?
I dont really have the space/desire to pick up an older receiver, could I put that money towards purchasing a relatively inexpensive amp to use with my computer? My K240s seem to need more power.- DerangedGoose

itunes/soundmax equalizer settings to get more bass out of K240s?
I mainly used my AKG k518 for listening, which is a basshead can. I got a pair of K240 for producing, and Im getting used to the difference in sound. Is there any EQ setting I can use to make the listening experience a little more involving?- DerangedGoose

Cheap headphones for snowboarding? sony zx300 or senn hd428?
I need a pair of headphones for snowboarding, preferably ones with good bass (since thats probably all that will cut through the wind/noise).

A cheap stereo receiver to drive Fostex T50RP, no added color (will be using for producing)?
So Ive narrowed down my choices for a set of neutral music production/studio headphones to the AKG 240 and the Fostex T50. If I decide to run unamped, I would go with the AKG 240. If I decide to get an amp, I would go for the T50, which can be had at a fraction of what they are really worth (or...- DerangedGoose

Best headphones for producing under 150 (used or new)? (I flat EQ and wide range, right?)
I'm working on producing with ableton, and being the basshead that I am, all my headphones are more or less oriented for big sound. This will most likely cause problems with mastering, so Im looking for a pair of flat-EQ headphones that wont color my mastering. Would like to keep it at 150...- DerangedGoose

m50 vs. hdj2000 vs. xone 53 vs. pro700mk2 vs. beyerdynamic 880? or wait for xb1000?
Im looking for big, feel-able bass (I assume this is where the xb1000 will shine). I listen to a lot of bass heavy genres; especially in the electronic dance music spectrum. However, more bass is only good if it doesnt sacrifice too much of the rest of the sound. That being said, Im looking for...- DerangedGoose

Upgrade from AKG 518? Should I get 181? HDJ 1000? Sony XB? Electronic music listening, some dj/producing
I love my AKG k518 LE's (minus the ridiculous clamping and the absurdly short afterthought of a cord). How can I extend the thing? Im looking for an upgrade. I will be doing some producing (I realize that ideally I need flat-eq cans for this) and DJing (which requires phones with a bass...- DerangedGoose
