    Compared these to Grado SR80i, SR225i, AKG K702, and Sennheiser HD598, HD650 headphones.   Build quality is good, strong plastic with a durable headband. The cords are detachable if they were to become damaged. The comfort is moderate, with soft ear pads that mostly covered my ear. The...

    A Day with Sennheiser HD 650 / HD598 and Grado SR225i

    So, my friend and I spent all day messing around with these three pairs of headphones because he was trying to decide between these pairs as well as the AKG K702 I figured I'd post how we both felt about them for anyone who was interested.   Firstly, I'll state the source we were using...

    @NinjaVampire I did not come across the Tubedac-11. I'd like to hear one someday, I'll point it out to my friend who owns the sr325i.

    Review by '179551' on item 'Maverick Audio TubeMagic D1 Plus DAC'

    I got the D1+ with all the upgrades after reading all the awesome reviews about the original D1 on head-fi. It was pretty clear to me that the headphones I received for Christmas (Sennheiser HD 650) weren't going to work well with a 3.5mm jack out of my laptop. So after hours of researching the...

    So I picked up my 225i to listen to a rap album (good kid, m.A.A.d city) I just got. I selected the song "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe" to see how the difference in bass was between the HD 650 and 225i. The bass was the least of my worries. The sound stage was non-existent on the 225i, the...

    The bass of the HD 650 is very accurate and never too punchy. It never gives you that "thud" feeling that Beats or anything else with an exaggerated bass do. The overall clarity is greater than 225i as well as the 325i (my friend brought his pair over to test out my amp). The 225i do have a...

    D1+ Arrived today. After 2 hours of listening time I'm very pleased with the purchase and sound of the D1+ I've tested Foobar2000 + WASAPI through usb and it sounded fantastic. Very good detail in the lows, mids, and highs. My friend had mentioned a "darker" sound from the Sennheisers which I...

    Review by '179551' on item 'Grado SR225i Headphones'

    I previously owned a pair of Klipsch Image S4 earbuds after reading a review on C-Net about how good they sounded. After hearing music with the Klipsch I started to crave for a richer sound. I came across head-fi and searched for the best cans in my price range. There were two contenders it...

    Review by '179551' on item 'Sennheiser HD 650 Headphones'

    Just got a pair of these for Christmas and have to say that I was very impressed with the box they came in, very solid packaging, and neatly organized cord. There is a 3.5mm adapter included in the box, something I was not used to coming from a pair of Grado SR225i cans. The build quality is...

    New to Audio - Help with Grado SR225i

    I upload everything using EAC into FLAC then convert it to ALAC using foobar2000 and iTunes encoder.   I don't own a DAC, but I have audio go straight to the headphones or to my receiver via HDMI. It is just a standard receiver in my price range, the Denon AVR-391. Which powers my stereo...

    New to Audio - Help with Grado SR225i

    So I bought a pair of Grado SR225i's a few months back. I listen to music using my Alienware M15x and Foobar2000 on Windows 7.   In Foobar2000 I had two choices for audio devices (besides null or primary). 1) Speakers / Headphones (IDT High Definition Audio CODEC) 2) Independent...
