I'm really leaning towards the new qJays, btw.

Hello, this is a recommendation thread! After listening to my trusty Earsonics SM2v2 for several years, the left bud went up and died. It was a sad evening. Anywho... * Preferred Type of Headphone - IEMs * Budget - Around $200 but I can go up to 300 if necessary * Source - My only source ATM...

Hello everyone,   I'm currently looking to buy a good DAC/Amp for my Oneplus 3. The phone native audio quality is far from amazing. I've been looking around for FiiO DACs since they're pretty well rated on this website but I don't know really... never used that kind of technology before :)...

Not actually highschool, but dev school, so it can be pretty annoying to log on a computer with no jack when you spend most of your day on it.

The reason is that people are ******** and keep breaking the jack input of the computers, and I think they are just getting tired of sending back iMacs because of broken jacks.

This actually looks really interesting, thanks again! I'll have to look for some reviews.

Hm, listening to music is what I mostly do while I work tho, so I would have liked something decent. Oh well, I'll look around the cheaper options!

Thanks for your input, yeah the U3 should be plug and play, requires software for the dolby and stuff but without those options it works out of the box, from what I read. The Topping looks nice but is too big I think. The form factor of the U3 is what really attracted me.   Thanks again.  ...

Hello, my school recently forbade using the jack input on the computers, so we either have to get USB headphones or some kind of a mini soundcard. I've been looking around and am interested by the Xonar U3, reviews say it's good, but I wonder if the pricetag really is justified, or if I'm...

That would be nice :) I'll give my impressions when I get them.

Welp, I just bought these. Hope they'll prove worthy. Anything to add to comfort me in my choice while they arrive :) ?

I can deal with the lack of noise cancelling, it's a plus but not an absolute :) Thanks anyway!

Hm. Those Brainwavz look very good. Will look into them but I'm afraid they're out of my budget. Will check if I can find them cheaper.

I really don't fancy the look of the UE6000 :( And the Takstars would be too expensive to import... Still considering the Phillips and the Audio Technica, not much to read on the Phillips though...

Cool thanks dude they sure look interesting. I'll look into them.

Hey thanks for the input. There are no reviews on head fi that I can find though... Can you talk about them a bit? Comfort? Sound signature?

So I am also considering these: Philips shp9500, but I have to read a bit more about them. They look good though :p Over the ear, detachable cable... They do seem a bit bulky though so I'm not sure about traveling with them.

I already have a pair of IEMs. Earsonics SM2 that I love, but I want headphones for when I'm at work. Something I can remove and put back on quickly. @TheHeadphoneGuy,eBay does ship to France, but it would take weeks and I can't really wait that long, I need something I can get to start to use...

Alright so little update. I have to unfortunately disregard the JVC ha-s500 because of lack of availability (can only import them from Japan). I am considering these: AKG k67 Audio Technica ATHWS55BK (leaning more towards these)   These are a bit more expensive than the price I put in the...

Hey, thanks for your input! I forgot to say I have large ears, how do you think the s500 would do?   Edit/ wow these are dirt cheap on Ebay. Hard to believe they are the same or as good as they say in that thread :p

Hello everyone.   I'm looking for some nice headphones. I'd prefer noise cancelling but this is not an absolute, comfort is! I mostly listen to rock music. They would travel a lot in my bag, I need them for when I'm on a computer... and if you have any other question that would help your...

Disabling the on board sound fixed the issue! Thanks a lot Honkytime.

Nope, playing through Direct Sound is fine. What's that on board sound you're talking about? Edit: In the bios! Will try, thanks.

Hello everyone, Using Asio with Foobar (Win7 x64), I noticed there was some annoying clicks and pops when Asio starts and stops or when I change manually change a song in Foobar (I think because Foobar restarts Asio). Uh. Dont really know what else to add, I'm not very knowledgeable on the...

So the monitors but not the computer if I understand correctly? Thanks for your help btw :) This forum is awesome.
