Been a bit interested in the X3, was hoping to get answer on a couple of questions.   1. This is essentially an e17 as far as dac/amp goes, with a dap on top? Thats what I keep hearing but just wanted to confirm.   2. When plugged into a laptop for usage of usb dac, does it use the battery...

Thanks for the input, both of you. I'll be watching through those reviews in a little bit. Are there any other obvious candidates I should be looking at? Looked around a bit more at pricing today and come accross the ws99 for $150 new, but after shipping, taxes and customs I'm guessing they'll...

Accidently posted this in the wrong forum, so just going to copy and paste my post since it doesnt appear to be moved, if anyone could shed some light that'd be greatly appreciated. mdr-1r vs momentum vs ath-es10 vs ath-ws99 I realize there are a good chunk of threads comparing the Sony to...

Apologies, think I accidently posted this in the wrong forum. If need to be moved, I'd very much appreciate if someone would do so. Thanks!

I realize there are a good chunk of threads comparing the Sony to the Sennheiser (and kind of leaning momentum between those two at the moment), but not with the two AT's which kind of intruiged me. Others that may edge these out, for my purposes, are of course also welcome to be mentioned. I...

Thanks you guys! Have had a quick look at the ones suggested besides the ones I were considering in my OP. The ones that really caught my eye was the Soundmagic HP100. Only places I've seen them within Europe are iheadphones.co.uk (£160 out of stock), and hifiheadphones.co.uk (£170 in stock)...

giving this a last bump

Thanks for the input guys!   The best price I could find (located in EU) for the A900X was nearly double of the M50, are they really that much better (especially considering my pretty poor audio sources)?

Looking for a decent pair, not of the bottom segment, but relatively low end of the good ones. Dont really have a set budget. Have done some research, and the 2 front runners at the moment are:   audio technica ath-m50 shure srh840   Its quite important to me that they're relatively...

Great, thanks. Prices seems to be about the same as they are here locally. Only the K44 I was unable to find in stock in any store around here so if I decide to go for that then amazon surely will come in handy.   So far I'm leaning towards HD201 or HD202 (or maybe maybe those really cheap...

Awesome, thanks a lot for taking the time to help with advice! I do actually own a pair of HD202, they're decent in all aspects, especially considering the price.   Are you aware of any good EU stores (or international for that matter if shipping prices are ok) that will ship all over EU?

Thanks for that, they're definitely an interesting option then.   More suggestions are always welcome. :)

  Quote: They seem to be quite hard to find around here, and maybe a bit expensive.   Quote:   It seems like those cans are on the ear model so comfort may suffer? They were out of stock where I checked, but I'm sure I can find them elsewhere, I'll definitely keep them in...

Any other suggestions, please?

Thanks guys!!   Mostly plugged into computer I guess. Would like to spend less than $100 on this I think, but again not really looking for audiophile stuff its what I get most for the $ whether its a $30 pair or a $100 pair. Any EU store would do as shipping is usually not that big of a...

I'm looking for a pair of headphones where the two main priorities are comfort, and isolation, and audio quality as the third. Durability is worth taking into consideration as well I guess. I'm not sure I got the english "head/hi fi terms" all figured out but I'm sure you'll get me anyway. :)...
