OK, so I just tried the Bowers and Wilkins P7.    Is it me, or do all over the ear headphones sound a bit hollow? It's very hard to describe, but my beats sound like they're right next to my ears, and every set of over ear headphones that I try sound as if I'm listening to them through a metal...

So, I tried the V-Moda's, and while they were definitely heavy on bass, they sounded a bit hollow to me. It's very hard to explain, but they just didn't do it for me. Very close, though.    OK, so those went back. Now, I'm going to try the 900i and the undisputed king of bass - the JVC...

How do you feel about the 900i? They are more expensive than the 900's for sure, though. 

  I'm really just looking for a set of cans that can match the bass of the beats in the over-ear variety (sound quality does matter, yes). I tried the over ear version of the beats, and it just didn't do it for me. I think I may have received a bad pair, as the bass in the left was...

Hey guys,    I'm currently using the Beats Solo Wireless headphones, and I am really loving the bass and sound, but not the comfort. I've been using these headphones for over a year now, but they're starting to hurt my ears over long sessions (my ears are starting to get sores).    So, I'm...

Hey guys,   For a few years now, I've been using the Bose on-ear headphones (http://www.amazon.com/Bose-On-Ear-Headphones-Discontinued-Manufacturer/dp/B002LK2QJK?)   These have been discontinued, but that's OK because mine still work perfectly.   I'm always working downstairs in my shop...

So I just started doing some recording with this microphone and was wondering if anyone could tell me what level you have your microphone set to under windows?   If I choose a level around 50, it seems to give me  some good results, but seems somewhat quiet. If I go lower I'll need to eat...

My experience with Ebay has been quite nice actually.   My very first sell was a $2000 item. Keep in mind I had absolutely NO feedback. The first buyer was the winning bidder but after the sale, backed out. So I re-listed the item and offered the other bidder a second chance offer. He agreed...

I have a VERY unusual request.   As a child I used to watch sci-fi movies all the time. I even used to watch movies from the 50's and 60's like Forbidden Planet and When Worlds Collide.   My question is regarding a movie called "The last StarFighter". It's an 80's sci-fi movie. There are...

Very good explanation. Appreciate the info. Yes, I do enjoy my Bose and will continue to do so. If I happen to come across another set of cans that I really enjoy much better, I will purchase them without a hiccup no matter what brand they might be.   I do enjoy clarity. The K702's were VERY...

As I said in my original post, I could definitely tell the difference between the Bose and the 702's.   The 702's were far more clear and precise. The bass was probably spot on and where it's actually supposed to be. However, I found it just lacking in that department. I have been listening...

I know that some people here do not like Bose headphones, mainly because they are overpriced.   However, I just have to say that it ultimately comes down to what I prefer, doesn't it?   I have no doubt that with proper amplification the K702's will sound as they are intended. However, my...

Before I begin I just wanted to say that, no, I have not burned them in for 100 hours or more.   However, I don't believe they are going to give me so much better sound after 100 hours that I'll change my mind.   I purchased the E7/E9 combo to power them, and to be honest they sounded...

Thanks for all the answers guys. That pretty much answers every question I had about the combo.   I was going to buy the E9 by itself and save some money, but I'm glad I got the combo instead.

Perhaps I should make myself a bit clearer without sounding like a total idiot. Then perhaps you'll answer again without making me feel like one.   The only reason I ask is because, in theory, you wouldn't even need the E7 connected at all to listen, which is why I asked. Some people buy the...

A tad confused by what you wrote. Are you saying that if I use a PC, I dock the E7 and then go from the PC to the E7? Or the E9?   What I am more confused about is why use the E7 at all? Is it because of the DAC? Sorry if I am not grasping the concept here. I'm a bit slow.   Quote:  

I was wondering how you guys listen to this combo together?   Do you use the headphone jack on the E9 or the E7 when they are connected?   I had heard that there was an odd way of listening to them. Well, not odd per-say, but different than usual when they are connected to each other. Is...

Thanks for the reassurance :)   I have been told by others that the E7/E9 combo is a great starter amp.   Could someone possibly tell me how to run the combo? I have see that you are supposed to run it in some odd way. Are you supposed to use the output on the E9? Or the E7?   I...

I have decided to go with the E7/E9 combo.   I am even going over my budget with this combo and I am a bit skeptical.   However, I have been hearing some good things about this combo being the best bang for the buck in terms of starter amplifiers.   I hope that this combo lives up to...

Ok I just got them this morning...   First off let me just say that I can really see the potential for these babies in a 100 or so hours of burn-in.   However, as you can probably imagine, they have a fair bit of distortion at higher levels through my receiver, and i know for a fact that...

I have a couple of questions regarding these cans...   I have posted my system specs in a couple of other threads, but those threads were not about the headphones.   I use a Logitech Z5500 surround sound system that gets it's sound from a SupremeFX-XFi sound card.   I was wondering...

I know that Bose is a bad word around here. So I'll keep this as brief as possible.    I own a set of Bose on-ear headphones. They are not noise canceling. Here are the exact headphones I'm speaking of...   http://tinyurl.com/7md8ol5   These headphones kinda surprised me a bit. They...

Actually, I have had my ears cleaned before by my doctor.   They used some sort of warm water solution and inserted a very small tube inside the ear that was attached to a spray bottle. Then the lady pulled the trigger and it just felt like water was being rushed into my ear. Which is what...

Well, I agree that saying that the receiver won't power the K702's properly without testing it first, is indeed a bit premature. It's something that I definitely plan on doing before any other purchase.   However, I've been searching around the net and watched various youtube channels on the...
