Just had to pop in to comment. Just upgraded from standalone M50s and on board sound to DT990 Pro/250ohms and an Audioengine D1. These sound ******* incredible. People kept saying they were too harsh, but they're really not. The high on these are so nice, the bass is tight, and the separation is...

More amps/DACs, and the new Orpheus ;o Username: thejesusguy

Haven't been on Head-fi in near a year, so.. Bump.

Reading his story makes me rather uncomfortable.. Why on earth would you give someone an amp and earphones with 81 languages of "something" on them.?

I hate hearing people's TV speakers. They don't even realize they sound so BAD.

Do you mean the amount the data takes up or the size of the drive?

Well I'm not buying any new 'phones 'til my M50 and M80s die so maybe i'll try the DT770 then. But yea what I want is better mids/vocals, tighter bass, and better instrument seperation

I really like the sparkly treble on these.

Am I the only one that thinks the blue M50x looks absolutely hideous?

YKYAAW you read "Actions speak" as "Active speakers".

It'll be great if it's something silly like 10 tonnes.

172.2lb 84.8lb 102.1lb   They are gorgeous little things

Does anyone know where I can get ATH-M50 earpads online (In the UK)? My original M50 earpads are kind of knackered as I 've had them for 17 months now. I'd like new earpads but apparently the M50x are softer. 

YKYAAW you see this and automatically think of Head-Fi        

YKYAAW you have a flu and notice that any highs seem veiled.

You know you're an audiophile when you watch something with an "expert wine taster" in it and start thinking about how similar it is to judging Hi-Fi gear.

This, I will never understand why but this is so true.   I remember this story. Damn it really did sound horrendous. I hope you're over it now.

I saw a guy with an acoustic guitar, shades on, and wearing HD650s on the train a few days ago.

There's 2 people in my College with decent headphones, I'm one of them.. The other only has LP2s and has no inclination toward anything else.

Yea I understand the whole trademark Head-Fi colours issue but I personally wouldn't be bothered much. The more attention it gets, the better. Whether anything would happen or not is another issue.

That is a good point actually.

I have dark skins for all of Google, Facebook, Youtube, and Wikipedia with the Stylish Google add on but nobody's made one for this.. Though I am now using this, a dark skin would still be preferred.

Petition for a Head-FI dark skin site option. I for one would spend a lot more time on here if the site wasn't so bright, as I'm on here at night sometimes and it can be really straining. Similiar to what Youtube had with their "Turn off the lights" thing for   example - 

YKYAAW it annoys you when you ask someone if their speakers, of which you've never heard, are good and they reply with "Yea they're really loud."

It's really weird to see someone replying to the same profile picture.
