Amp recommendation for HE-400s?
I've decided to get a pair of HE-400s after hearing all the good things about them, I might still end up getting HE-500s or something even better in their lineup but I'll start off with the HE-400s for now. I know these need a pretty good powered amp to drive them, what amps are recommended to...- Mr. Morden

HD600 vs. AKG K712 Pro vs. Fidelio X2
So simply put, I've done a lot more research and I think I'm between these headphones. Upgrading from HD595s, I want more sub-bass and bass but also general improvements in soundstage and positioning. I like a neutral sound, but I would lean towards fun over being purely analytical. I'm going to...- Mr. Morden

Sennheisder HD600's, 650's, AKG K712 Pros, Philips X2, or Hifiman?
I thought I had settled for sure on trying the AKG K712 Pros, but now I'm unsure again. I have HD595's as my current "best" headphones (I also have AKG K340 Electrostats, but I don't listen to them a lot - maybe they're better in some ways?) and I like them a lot but would like to upgrade to...- Mr. Morden

Headphone Amp for AKG K712 + Senn HD650s
I currently plug my headphones (AT M50s, Sennheiser HD595, and AKG K340 electrostats) directly into my sound card on my PC (HT Claro Omega Plus+). This works fine, a bit less so for the AKGs though, but I am looking to upgrade to some new headphones and I think they'll need dedicated...- Mr. Morden

Good portable phones under $80
At my work I am often left sitting around with nothing to do while waiting for things to finish, so music is something that could help pass the time and is acceptable. I have headphones I like already, my Sennheiser HD595 have become my favorites, but I have Audio Technica ATH-M50's and Hifiman...- Mr. Morden

HT Omega Claro Plus+ - do I need a DAC?
On my eventual checklist of things is a dedicated headphone amp and possibly a DAC (I'm using the Claro Plus as a DAC with a Marantz 2215b receiver for now and have been quite pleased with this setup). I'm curious though, because I hear a lot of people recommending DACs and many of them are of...- Mr. Morden

Differences between the Little Dot amplifiers
EDIT: Alright, I can see we're in a TL;DR kind of mood - basically I'm mostly set on getting a Little Dot amplifier after seeing opinions on them (And seeing many negative opinions about many Chinese made amplifiers from other companies). I'm willing to ignore the price differences I stated -...- Mr. Morden

AKG K340 Electrostatic Headphones
Hey everyone, I recently picked up a pair of these in good shape in their original box for $10 (Quite a score for some vintage TOTL headphones - I knew nothing about these but figured they were worth their price given it said electrostatic on the box. I've heard there are three versions (Bass...- Mr. Morden

What do I need to know about buying Stax headphones?
So I know these electrostatic headphones are supposed to be really great sounding. I've been interested in hearing and getting some but they're uncommon and I'm not about to order some online. Locally though a guy has an older Stax 404 with a SRD-7/SB professional excitor. He's asking $300 for...- Mr. Morden

Looking for cans with good bass
Currently I have been using some RE Audio RE0 IEMs as my daily headphones. They sound great and have great accuracy, but I love hardstyle music which is a very heavily kick/bass oriented kind of music. The RE0's handle bass in most kinds of music well, but synthetic bass they lack (Plus they...- Mr. Morden

Need advice on an IEM
Hello forum, registered here as I attempted to find answers elsewhere and could not conclusively determine what to get. So I would like the advice of people here. Big erm - note I guess: I was reading a few posts on here that I found via Google and uh, notice you people like headphones. A lot. A...- Mr. Morden
