wow thats a great deal from B&H!, im going with the 8400's, thanks!

Quote: thanks! just one question, do you prefer the sound signature of the 6400 over the 8400? if so, could you explain why? also, do these need a lot of burn in?

I have been looking at closed back headphones ~$150, and the 8400 looks like a good choice. I listen mainly to classic rock, acoustic, and a little bit of pop. I will be listening straight out of an ipod. I would like them to be really comfortable. I like having a lot of detail, and not too much...

no, they came out with a new version of the fa-003 a couple weeks ago

anyone?

If I pre order the Fischer Audio FA-003's from http://www.gd-audiobase.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=4&category_id=5&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=2 will it be the new version?   Thanks

KRK KNS 8400 or Fischer Audio FA-003 for classic rock music, no amp, straight out of an ipod.

does anyone have experience with the fa-003 compared to the KRK KNS 8400?

 ok, i think im going to go with the KRK KNS-8400. thanks for your help  

has anyone else tried these two headphones?

these would both be better than ath m50's or shure srh840's right? and check back tomorrow with more impressions electropop. :)

Quote: what are those few reasons? are they more comfortable? which shows more detail?

I have been looking at closed back headphones ~$150, and these look like two of my best choices. I listen mainly to classic rock, acoustic, and a little bit of pop. Which of these will sound better straight out of an ipod? Also, which is more comfortable for someone with an average sized head...

im going to go with the m50, it sounds like a great all around headphone to start out with

could someone please help with this one last comparison?!

Quote: it is now between the ath m50 and ultrasone hfi 780 for mainly listening to classic rock unamped. thanks for helping! i just need one last suggestion

I would like to spend $200 maybe $250 if its worth it on a pair of over ear closed headphones. I mainly listen to rock. I will be playing them out of an ipod with no external amp. They need to be comfortable (will be wearing them 4+ hours sometimes). I have been looking at the ath m50...

which of those will be better for listening to classic rock music, because that is a lot of what i listen to. please help!

Quote: still having a hard time choosing between these, any other opinions?

so which would you recommend

which of these would be better, audio technica ath m50, beyerdynamic dt 770 32 ohms or 80 ohms, shure srh840, or ultrasone hifi 780
