And there you have it. Perfect response that even if the people go and get their pants rustled up. While I despise apple, I don't mind it if they did one thing right in an area. That also doesn't mean I'll go preach the "its not worth it" message as actual audio enthusiast reviewers already did...

Don't forget to consider that you guys are in a forum where people want reccomendations. This website is chock full of hype. Of course if one person goes overboard on how great something is, or how horrible you need to specify. It is not really your fault for saying it without any context...

I suggest you and the others who are really unsatisfied with the stupid comparisons over high end rigs to either ignore or leave the thread. I've been reading this thread for a while and understand that regardless how good or bad a headphone performs they don't care, regardless of price. For...

Yeah best bang for buck would definitely be the hd560s. Its price bracket can beat above most 300-400 to even 500 headphones (word of mouth). Don't know if that includes against the r70xs though. Reason, while you say bass detail and texture is great, there are others who say its not so good...

Info sent.

Pretty sufficient bass in quality and quantity with deep reach?

I think I'll go buy one before the ckr90 then. I honestly didn't like the fit of the cks1100 or the bass quantity on those, despite the quality of it. Hopefully this one will not disappoint and will sound more impressive than even my Msr7. Thanks Jant! @doctorjazz Do the DM3s go neck to neck...

Please tell us, how do the sound? Apparently they're balanced, have good crispy treble and the bass extends well? I needed that on the msr7s, the subbass that is.

Not a discovery unfortunately, but a review of the msr7s since it used to be pretty popular. Just trying to contribute my experiences with it. https://www.head-fi.org/threads/review-the-ath-msr7-a-headphone-with-a-stylish-personality.857693/

IMAGES I took the liberty to take additional photos of the ath-msr7's beauty. You also get to see where the 3.5mm headphone jack is connected, the plushy appearance of the ear cushions and the materials used for its housing.

The older computers actually required sound cards to sound their best. Now that the latest intel motherboards have the latest realtek drivers and sound chips, there's no NEED for a sound card. Now, if you want to improve the sound quality, you could get a sound card, but I think it's a better...

Let me ask you an imperative question. Do you find yourself longing for a specific frequency? Do you expect more clarity? Because your ad900x are pretty dang clear, as are the ad700x and ad500x. This series is usually about details and clarity over bass. The Hifiman HE400 sounds like it's about...

Some headfiers mentioned before that Sony went to try newer technology due to newer = better. That goes for all other companies too. Aurisonics, Fidue, etc. I mean even sony's old models beat their latest models, and that's saying something. I'm planning on getting the mdr 7550 because of that.

Is the bass tighter than the sony xba-h3? Does it reach lower than the h3 with more punch and subbass?

So subbass is also comparable with the 7550 tape mod to the xb90ex?

Hi, I have a question regarding the sony in ears. I am thinking of buying the mdr 7550, but apparently there's also the xb90ex that is being loved by many. I have a cayin c5 amp and a cayin n5 player (which I will review soon) and am wondering if the taped sony mdr 7550 will be able to output...

https://www.head-fi.org/threads/review-the-ath-msr7-a-headphone-with-a-stylish-personality.857693/ Wrote my ath-msr7 review. I believe this headphone is worth a purchase for $200. Id be a bit less inclined to recommend for $250 due to certain issues it may have on the user. Imo, 200 is a safe...

ATH-MSR7 Review Introduction/Personal Matters Hello fellow headfiers! This is vlenbo, a headfier who had reviewed quite a lot of FOTM headphone/earphones that gained traction to become well known products loved by audiophiles and music lovers everywhere. I reviewed the ath-ckr9 along the...

I'm sorry for not responding soon enough!     I'm finally feeling pumped enough to at least write a semi-deep impressionist post of the shanling m2 player.   First, I did not expect to even be invited to the tour, so I wish to thank you profusely. Second, before even committing myself to...

It's the same weird sound I heard the first time using them. It'll disappear, at least I hope it does for your, since for me the mids are a lot more improved than they were on open box. Even Jant71 and dsnuts said the same thing.

+1   The ieb6 harmonics sound frigging amazing for the price. The soundstage depth helps with the earphone's height, despite the lack of width that 's present. While the depth doesn't beat the cks1100s, it's pretty close, along with the height (though again, loses by at least a finger's...

Nice, get the cks1100 when you can, it's literally the best thing in AT's arsenal.

Though the comparisons are a bit early for judgment, how would the cks1100s fare against the x1 finders?   Just in terms of vocals, guitars, and bass. I feel that the cks1100's treble is exactly what I needed for my treble sensitive ears.   Btw, how do the cks1100s compare to the ckr10s and 9s?

They most certainly open up. The sound signature originally sounded veiled and lacked the subbass levels that jant claimed were even to the midbass.      After burning the cks1100s in (and a proper fit), the in-ears sound magnificent and definitely delineate the treble's best qualities...
