    Bigsby’s top cans for 2013: ep1 Soundmagic HP100- The Beyer Slayer, The Mid Monster, The Detail Demon.

    IMO you cant go wrong with these, cheap enough, and sound downright amazing. Its hard to believe how good these are without trying them. I havent bought other cans since, and im a frequent buyer!

    SoundMAGIC HP100/HP150 Review and Impressions Thread

    i dont own both, just the HP100- although i have tried the k550 quite a bit. Its one of those sets of cans ive ummed and ahhed over quite a bit, but in the end never bought.   So i guess Greeni is more qualified to answer for you, but personally i owned the HP100 before trying the K550 and...

    SoundMAGIC HP100/HP150 Review and Impressions Thread

    pul the trigger. I havent bought headphones since, and prior i was buying 1-3 pairs a month for a period. I sold off almost everything but kept 4-5 pairs. The HP100 and FA011 are the two pairs that get any use.

    WOO-HOOOO... WA7 "fireflies"!!!

    check out the original post on this thread. I reviewed all the tubes i could find and afford at the time for this amp (3 sets). To my ears the EH tubes were best via a range if fischer audio headphones, DT770, t50rp, and HP100.

    WOO-HOOOO... WA7 "fireflies"!!!

    Much more noticable results from a good power cable than from a USB. Im 32 so my hearing wont be as good as a 16-21 Y-O, but its still pretty good as i dont crank my cans too much. That being said i cant notice any remarkable difference between my "fancy" usb cable i bought (starlight), and the...

    Bigsby’s top cans for 2013: ep1 Soundmagic HP100- The Beyer Slayer, The Mid Monster, The Detail Demon.

    I think they do fine on the go, thats where i use mine mostly. THey are fine without an amp- but IMHO i think a small amp will do best. a nice little e17 is cheap-ish (even a second hand one from the for sale threads here) and sounds great. Even unamped they will sound tons better than many...

    SoundMAGIC HP100/HP150 Review and Impressions Thread

    I agree with this fully! Noisymotel will ship worldwide. He does his best to keep well stocked.    Anyone else heard any great new cans lately? Things seem a bit quiet with new products lately and im itching to spend :D

    Travelling, need headphones for electronic music production/mixing....narrowing it down!

    most amps range from the size of a cigarette, to at MOST an iphone. Most commonly a credit card size only as wide as an iphone, or smaller.   Try the HP100, i cant recommend them enough, I could describe them all day but it wont help till you hear them. THey are kinda "neutral" but a little...

    Review of the Fischer FA-011 New Edition.

    Who knows until we hear them. I dont think their quality is bad or maybe i just got lucky. Also I dont think they are getting ahead of themselves, they make amazing headphones- i have a pair of karelian birch fa002W HE with non HE drivers fitted that are worth more than that, and i think they...

    Review of the Fischer FA-011 New Edition.

    Great Review GikiGill, and great photos Jensy. Any word on the new Special Edition FA-011 yet? I know its coming in 3-4 different woods and that they are only making 10 of each wood world wide, and that theres a driver technology update, but thats it. Have they come out yet? I havent been...

    Travelling, need headphones for electronic music production/mixing....narrowing it down!

    Read reveiws here- theres a bunch of them over 2-4 threads. Soundmagic actually make the headphone for many of the big brands, including some you have your eye on. Their IEMs are quite famous and award winning. This is their first foray into their own branded headphone.   I have 6 or more...

    Travelling, need headphones for electronic music production/mixing....narrowing it down!

    I really cant stress enough how much the Soundmagic Hp100 fits precisely what your asking for It even folds and comes with a slimline hardcase and rock climbing caribeena!  THey are made for EDM, you would be doing yourself a serious disservice not trying them. Also IMHO all headphones need...

    Quote: Yep! First page of this thread- the WA7 review itself, where i not only reviewed the unit over a week or so of entries, but also reviewed its performance with 3 different sets of tubes. Im still rocking the EHX upgrades myself. Gave up on the other russians (Reflektor), they are a...

    SoundMAGIC HP100/HP150 Review and Impressions Thread

    You really cant get a grasp of these (or many Headphones out there) without an amp. Although they are relatively low ohm, unamped VS amped is night and day.   Its unfair to compare them to reviews from amped listeners. If budget is an issue check out some of the great cheap options from...

    JDS Labs C5/C5D (pg96) portable amp/amp+DAC

    I have both. The HP100 is one of my favorite cans right now, and sounds great with the c5, however it doesn't handle the bass boost so well. These cans have enough bass as it is so they can become overly exaggerated and bloaty with the c5 bass boost and electronica. The FA011 handles the c5's...
