Been using a Sansa Clip+ for a little while now, and finally got around to Rockboxing it today.   I absolutely love it.

While they are not bad, it is worthy to consider the DR150's, which are only about £46 on amazon right now. I do believe they sound much more than the £6-7 difference might imply.

Sorry if this is a little too depressing :|.  

This crossed my mind recently, mostly because of an accident that I was involved in. But how would guys cope if you suddenly was unable to enjoy the high quality gear you have brought? Especially headphones and amps.   For example, if you were to lose hearing or something like that.

As a DR150 user myself, the sound quality is great, far better than most in that price range, but I don't really see them as gaming headphones.   The sound is to in-your-face to get the upper hand I find.

Sorry guys, I might not be able to come after all.   I have just been in a traffic accident, and I have minor head injuries which will take a little while to heal.  

Buy something with a different sound signature. That sounds the simple problem here, you just don't like the sound. Everyone has different tastes.   An amp would help too mind you.

Towards the upper end, the M50 gets the most credit around here, but I am yet to have hear it.   You may get some people that say Grado SR60/80, but we get ripped off in the UK, so you might do better importing.   EDIT:   Few more things to point out:   If you live near London...

A tuesday isn't really ideal as I have university on the following morning. But I will still try to go. 

Thanks for the feedback.   I found some old gear and fixed the problem, it was a ground loop just as you said it could be. 

I am just wondering if any of you guys have noticed a strange (rather quiet) static noise whenever there is any hard drive activity. I am convinced it is a software noise and not as a result of hardware, as I can seemingly turn it off by unplugging my sound gear.   I have disabled all...

I have read a few people on here say that the mids and highs of the XB500's are a little more acceptable.   But I haven't heard them myself so I am probably not the best person for this.

I haven't really got any really decent cans that I can bring.   I could bring my DR150's, just out of interest. If anyone is interested in hearing them.

Quote: Wow, hang on a second. This isn't a girlfriend, lol.     The creative's were something I was looking at. The sextetts could probably be found underbudget too, but that is tight.   The superlux looks good, but also looks really hard to find over here.

Yeah, I edited my post.   Unfortunatly the ES7's come in over budget in the UK, 

Looking at her music tastes, she will probably want something slightly bass heavy. She has also said to me that although she wants full circumaural headphones, she wants ones that are not too bulky.   I ran through some options earlier, and she likes the style of the ATH-M50, but would like...

It is pretty much universally excepted on here that they are overpriced.

A pair of stock earbuds that came with my phone.   If we are talking headphones only. Then probably skullcandy aswell.

Just read about these a few minutes ago. They look nice, I will wait to see about the sound quality.   Any ideas on the price?

Quote: Yeah I did this too.   Damn.

Quote: This is good news. 

+43   And also some more word spreading from me.

Contact the BBB, get in contact with any legal organisation you can, and generally spred the word as much as possible. Then threaten ultrasone with everything you have got.   Or at least, that is what I would try.   I wouldn't mind betting that this thread has stopped at least a few...

Quote: Then he just doesn't like the sound signature, and is the exact reason why he will be the best judge of his own ears. We can say what does what, but only he will know what sound he enjoys,   What doesn't he like about the M50's? Too much bass? Too little bass? Sound detail...
