Went out and got a pair of HD280 Pros, it didn't work out....   I have a large head, with the 280 in their largest setting, they were painful.  Throbbing and headaches... returned promptly.  Do all the sennheisers fit the same?   What about AKG Q701? Seems similar to an HD558

hmm.... the more I think about it, maybe I should hold onto the AD700s and pick something out with more music listening in mind.  The AD700s are just outstanding in skyrim and other games.  Why mess with them?   What bugs me about the AD700s is listening to hard rock.  When I put on some Foo...

I do have the option to buy amazon gift cards at best buy. Worth haveing both the ad700 and the hd558s?

I've had my ATH-AD700 for a couple years now.  I use the mostly for PC gaming with my Asus Xonar DG for dolby (when applicable) and eq'ing.  I do listen to some music on them, but most of my music is heard through IEMs/iPod at work or on travel. I Think the AD700 sound very nice with the bottom...

  just updated to linux 12.10.... not a unity fan.  Decided to switch to linux mint MATE to show gnome 2 some love

Windows media player which seems to be awful. Poweramp on my droid better.....

I just got a pair of AD700 for gaming/movies/music (1/3, 1/3, 1/3)....   They don't sound natural to me.  They sound hollow in gaming and music.  In music and movies female vocals/voice are harsh and stand out, its kind of distracting.  I think i prefer a warmer tone.   Can I fix this...

Quote: nailed it!  Sub bass is greatly improved.  These now sound all around better then the bass freq.  Lost a bit of detail, but its a great trade off!

reading through the IEM guide vsonic seems to make a few models that might fit the bill, GR02 Bass Edition and R02ProII model, thoughts??

My 5 year old V moda Bass Freq IEM are starting to show their age.  So, I looked around on here and it seemed like i wouldn't be able to go wrong with a set of meelectronics M6.   The M6s are ok i guess.  Sound fine on some music, nice deep bass extension similar to the bass freqs but more...
