Well, if the bass is not lacking I think I would like the SRH840 better. Also better soundstage is great for gaming. I suppose that the Shures are better in a wider range of genres, not just few genres (rap, EDM for example) like the m50s. Thanks for the help!

Moderate acurate bass will be ideal, I can EQ it to fit my needs

Hey   I am looking for a new headphone for $75-$90 (pre owned), I cannot choose between these two. The m50s are fun and fast but they aren't very accurate. The 840s are really accurate, with great soundstage but I heard they where too slow. My musical taste is really varied, my main genres are...

For the music you like it will be good getting a headphone with great treble. Some recommendations are: Sony MDR-V6 V-Moda Crossfade LP Sennheiser HD-558 Audio Technica ATH-M50S Philips Citiscape Uptown AKG K167 Pioneer HDJ-1000K

Don't buy them. They sound really bad(I had one of those). There are many great headphones for under 100 Us dollars and they even sound a lot better than the beats. If you buy some entry level headphones on amazon you can spend a little bit more bringing them to Venezuela. I know that it is very...

The dt880s. Before I got here I had the Beats Tour lol. Actually I came here because of the beats because I wanted to know how a good headphone sounds after listening to them.

Quote: Would you recommend the Ipod Classic 7th Gen? Also, if I buy the Ipod or the X3 do I still need to buy a dac? Thanks

Quote: Well, I usually listen to music in my cell phone (xperia z) and my PCs (y410p and a desktop with Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD). I am not sure if i like warm or a colder sound, because for electronic music I prefer warmer, but I prefer colder for metal, so neutral sound...

I am more concerned about the sound quality than the portability, anything i can carry around the house easily is ok.

it is under 200 US dollars

Hey! I just bought the Beyerdynamic dt880, the 250ohm version. I have noticed that amping is helpful in this headphone, but I also need a Dac. I dont need it to be extremely portable, the JDS Labs Objective 2 size is ok. I have been looking at the Fiio e17, the Nuforce Icon, Hi-Fi Man EF2A...

As a second option which one will you get?

Quote: is the e17 enough to get the 250 ohm, because I heard it sounds better than the 32ohm version

Hey, I want to buy some new headphones for my personal use. I live in Costa Rica but I usually buy in Amazon.com. The genres I listen to are mostly metal music (It will be great that it will make the low-fi black metal sound better). I listen to every genre in metal but mostly extreme metal...

Ive been looking for some good pair of headphones that fit my needs. After some hours of hardcore googling I found some headphones, but im not sure about wich ones are the best for me. I will be using them for metal electronic music, some rap and gaming. I will use them for like 3 hours each...

Ultrasone HFI-780 vs Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO vs Shure SRH840 vs Sennheiser HD 558 vs VSonic GR07 MK2 vs Ultimate Ears TripleFi 10. For hearing metal( alternative, progressive, symphonic, death, hard rock, industrial, etc), electronic (house, trance, dubstep, progressive)??? (I am using Fiio E11...

Quote: 80 vs 250 ohms?

Quote: DT770 vs DT990 and  HFI 580 vs 780

HI!!!   I am looking for my first headphones but I dont know what to choose. They will be used mainly for hearing metal(alternative, industrial, symphonic, death, progressive, etc.) electronic (house, dubstep,progressive, hardcore, trance, etc.) and for gaming(without mic) My budget is...
