    New Beyerdynamic Pro X line: DT 700 Pro X and DT 900 Pro X

    My HD25 has been struggling with the earphone connector thing for quite a while, so I after a little contemplation I picked up the 700 Pro X. Now I am not an audiophile or creator of any sort but overall sound quality-wise they feel like an upgrade over the HD25. I am pairing this with the...

    Apple earpods: am I losing my mind!?

    I easily pick them over my hd-25 or v-moda xs when im in bed. Any of my recent phones drives them very well. Or may be im just perpetually high.

    Soundmagic E10 Or E50?

    Hey, a pretty old thread I know, but I'm kinda in the same boat right now. Been looking to order the E10 and just curious about possible alternatives. What did you get in the end?

    V-MODA XS - V-MODA M-80s upgraded - Pictures and more! [Discussion, Questions] #FirstthreadtocoverXS

    Another question, how well is the inline mic and remote protected from sweat? Only god knows how many IEM headsets I ruined by working out in them.

    V-MODA XS - V-MODA M-80s upgraded - Pictures and more! [Discussion, Questions] #FirstthreadtocoverXS

    Thanks, at times they would feel so uncomfortable that I was starting to regret the purchase, but I think that I'm steadily getting used to them.

    V-MODA XS - V-MODA M-80s upgraded - Pictures and more! [Discussion, Questions] #FirstthreadtocoverXS

    I realize that this may have been asked a billion times, but the search doesn't really bring up anything explanatory.   1. Does the XS burn in? 2. I find them pretty uncomfortable after several minutes. Does this get better with time e.g. the pads get softer/memorize the relief of the ear.  ...

    Looking for a replacement for HD555

    Thank you all for replies. I'm not sure what happened but I just went out and grabbed the V-MODA XS today. I was looking for over-ear open, but bought on-ear closed, I must have OCD.   Still planning on buying an HD5x8 though, gonna wait till the black friday I suppose.

    Looking for a replacement for HD555

    Thanks kcazbarach. I'm considering cashing out extra 80$ to buy 598 instead of 558, just not sure if it's gonna be worth it. From what I've read, 598 are not necessarily an upgrade to 558, rather different.

    Looking for a replacement for HD555

    Unfortunately, there is absolutely no way I could get my hands on 595, plus I'm not too big on second hand stuff. I am not a basshead but I feel like my 555 could benefit from a bit more punch. I may or may not be a fan of Senn sound, I've never really heard decent HPs apart from my 555...

    Looking for a replacement for HD555

    bump.   At this point I'm also considering Grado SR80e or 125e. I've read that they're good for rock, but since most of the music I listen doesn't really classify as guitar music (stuff like Vampire Weekend, Wild Beasts, War on Drugs, Tame Impala) and some hip hop occasionally (Kanye West...

    Looking for a replacement for HD555

    After doing some research I'm leaning towards the 558 due to the price, since there is minimal difference between the two and 558 is 80$ cheaper. I'm also gonna drop Beyer DT-990-Pro-250 into the equation, it falls within the 200$ range.   Also, bit off topic here, but hey, this is my topic...

    Audiophiles in Dubai?

    Thanks, it's been a while since I used shop and ship. If I remember correctly when you use S&S you still have to pay NY sales tax (given that you're buying in America). If that's so, I'd rather buy from a UK store that ships directly to UAE without VAT.

    Audiophiles in Dubai?

    What's a good place to buy Sennheisers? Particularly interested in 558 or 598. And what is the usual price? I can't be assed to drag myself to a mall :D

    Looking for a replacement for HD555

    I've never tried the 558 or 598, and due to poor range of products at local stores I will be making the purchase blindly. I don't even think there's a store that has a display for anything other than Monster, Bose etc.

    Looking for a replacement for HD555

    So it seems like my 8 year old 555s are finally starting to give in. Since I'm very used to my 555s and haven't really used anything but them for the past 8 years I went right off into comparing 558s to 598s. I am not an audiophile, but my take on 555s has always been that they're a well balance...

    Beyerdynamic DTX-101 - what the heck is wrong?

    I don't like their sound either. Don't know if there is anything wrong but they just don't sound right to me.

    More color, superb sound: Three new in-ear headphones from beyerdynamic - DTX 71 iE, DTX 101 iE and MMX 101 iE

    not even 3 weeks passed since I had got my DTX 101. yesterday I went for my routine jog. then I noticed that left bud was sounding strange and quieter. I was really frustrated as it is my third pair of 100$ iems that didn't even make it to a couple of months. this morning they sounded perfectly...

    That's a shame, they really seemed ideal for me. :(   I know it's a bit off-topic, but you wouldn't happen to have any 'pillow-friendly' suggestions?

    The Etymotics HF5 Thread

    Hi all,   Been looking at these for a while. Would like to know if you can use them while lying in lateral position. Would it cause any discomfort or, perhaps, any damage? I need them to be very durable too, cause I'm gonna be using them while in bed.   Also, the price on Amazon for...
