I need some help regarding my current situation. I have a broken Bose over the ear headphone in my house. It was my sister's and she doesn't want it anymore now that it's broken.   The warranty is over but I can send it in for a replacement, Bose answered that the old over-the-ear models...

My thoughts exactly, portapro and px100 is known as the best portable headphones, is it possible to go farther?

Hello, its been a while I've been involved in Head-Fi.   I have had my PX100 for a while now as my portable can and I was wondering if there was a perhaps better replacement?   My treasured PX100 snapped in half when my sister accidentally stepped on it.   I would like the opinion of...

Any other suggestions? upgrade from px100 or portapro. or is that like the epitome of outdoor headphones? I want more suggestions before I invest.

Does HD25 have detachable cable? Some are saying it is and some say it isn't. Is there a different versions of each?

I would love to do that if I could, but I lack both parts and skill to do so. Also I do not know anyone or some sort of a shop that can do it for me.

Hello, its been a while since I last posted here.   Recently, I've seen my friends get "full-size" cans to wear it out doors, personally I think that its just a waste of time because they do not even have a good source or an amp that powers it.   Anyways,it motivated me to think of...

He decided to get a AKG K702. Is this a good choice for him? Does it have Booming bass his looking for? I'm not sure because high-end cans I tried were Sennheisers He doesn't have an amp. Would CMOY portable amps be able to drive K702? I'm doubting whether he would be able to wear it outside.

I really regret even trying to make him try the Sennheiser now. I think he'll get Beyerdynamic DT770 (without an amp). It would be really silly and near impossible to wear it outside all the time but... I wish I got few more inputs. I did introduce him to the HiFi world and I don't want...

I really wish there was a local audio shop in Vancouver. Would anyone know where we could try out audio gears near the area?

Its really hard for me because he is contradicting himself. he doesn't want an IEM but a headphone... so I really don't know. I let him try my Portapro and PX100, but he don't like them as much. Now his looking at HD600... I really don't know what to do about him, he's so determined to...

Thank you for all great answers. Would the headphones you guys mention portable? He is really set on wearing them outside.

Thanks, I was thinking of hd25, but I haven't tried them. How are they? I know they have great reviews but my friend wants really "booming" stuff and I'm not sure if its bassy. Its a shame they don't sell it at Amazon anymore.

actually, he is really firm about not getting any IEMs, funny thing you mention Monster Turbine. That was my first recommendation 6 months ago, he likes the sound but he said "its a hassle puting on" so he sold it yesterday.

Hello, I've been looking around head-fi quite often and I need help picking a convincing headphone that will change my friend's choice. His budget is about $300 CAD, today he went to apple store to buy the Dr.dre. I begged him to at least try out some headphone before he makes a final...

KONAKONA thanks alot for everything you've been kind and very helpful i think i will go with MDR-V6 i was wondering if you could help me with few more things, how are Koss PRO3AA and Sennheiser HD 202? they are out for grabs and i'm willing to invest if i get good response (it seems...

I'm really leaning towards Sony MDR-V6 now, can anyone give me a guide on whether it needs amping and if it does what kind of amp i need?

thank you for you wise comments Uncle Erik i love trying out new headphones and such but its pretty hard in my environment, i don't know any professional audio gear shop, the reason why i asked for koss or sony stuff was because i had wonderful experience with them koss protapro was a...

sorry for slow reply, English isn't my domain... so would it be wiser if i just stick to IEM than fullsize? P.s. would it be ok to move this post to portable section than? or is there some rules against posting similar posts in two section?

KONAKONA thanks again for the advise, i've deleted the fanboy thing, i'm not like those crazed cultists lol so amps/dacs are not really for portables? i'm confused because almost every ipod users seems to use portable amps. it would be wonderful if i could get more info on that

Drubbing thanks alot for your time! so do you think there are good full-size phones with low impedance within my price range? if you give me some models or brands i'll look it up

Thanks alot for great input KONAKONA, so do you think I wouldn't be able to setup a reasonable amp/fullcan combo with $200? I really wish I could hear more about MV1 I've only found one actual review by skylab

I wasn't insulting anyone, I'm really sorry if it felt as if i was offending someone, and yes of course I have read almost every single post related to buyers guide, yet I couldn't find many useful posts on Koss nor Sony headphones. How do you think I should change my post title to...

Bah it feels like everyone is more interested in suggesting headphones of expensive price range than helping some noob
