They sound great with a low end DAP. However, they are really responsive with a high end DAP and an amp. They also adapt very nicely to equalizing. Everyone that's complaining about the lack of bass should simply change their EQ haha

Poweramp makes my songs skip once every 5-10 minutes. Does anyone know the cause of this??

The NC sound way worst, especially with the NC setting on.  I got to try them at the store since it was their only pair.   

They aren't bass heavy at all.  I've had them for a little while now, they sound great! They have about 24 hours of total use so far and the sound is nothing impressive, it's very tamed and representative of the sound and I say this with the best intentions. However, I'm running them through...

I've been really enjoying this thread.  So far Swans, Captain Murphy, Beach House and Lorn are my top. I'll be contributing more to this thread once I'm done my exams :) Here's something for you guys!  'The Algorithm’s style - often called ‘Mind****’ - blends many subgenres of electronic...

I don't agree with the whole patterns and textures thing, but there are some holes in your wardrobe if you're looking to establish a better fanbase.  Wearing GAP and Uniqlo won't get much attention on a blog. I love Uniqlo and it's a great brand, but it's just too boring to be a viable option...

I really enjoyed the last few episodes.  Andrea has to be the character I dislike the most. I just can't get behind her decisions and reasoning.  Reminds me of how annoying Skyler is in breaking bad haha

From what I've seen, noise cancelling headphones distort the sound. I tried out and ordered the MDR-1R, but tried the RNC version. When the NC was on, the sound was higher pitched and grainier. The MDR-1 were really accurate and just a tiny bit bass heavy compared to the actual sound. I'm...

I'm in the same boat haha but I would add the Beyerdynamic DT660 to the list along with Denon AH D2000. I had it narrowed down to the above 2 and the Sony MDR-1R along with the AKG K550. This is all purely based on reviews and personal taste. I have not heard any of these yet and I'm really...

An amazing read! I'm starting to get familiar with all of the more technical aspects of headphones. I had two questions: Does the Sennheiser 600 leak sound like a typical open headphone? And have you had a chance to try the Sony MDR-1?
