I just tried the Campfire Audio Comets today and wasn't really into them. They sounded nice but for my listening they just didn't do much for me. I listen to a lot of post rock, occasional EDM and a variety of other genres. I'm looking for something in the $200 range or cheaper, I think I'm...

So I've received some Meze Classics and the way they sit on my head the top of the pads put more pressure than the rest of the cup around my ears so just above and slightly behind my ears I get a pressure point and its causing me bad headaches, I'm wondering if anyone else has had this issue and...

I just got some Sennheiser HD598CS (closed backs) and I love them sound wise, and how much they isolate my room noise. They are however extremely uncomfortable because of the way the weight is only on the very top of your skull. After an hour or so it ends up just being painful on the one spot...

I have the LCD XC as my Grail headphones but I need something for sitting at my desk, I have some AKG 240s but I have too much noise from my pc to be able to enjoy them. I'm used to the clamp on the LCD line so I like the isolation they give. I've looked into some Audio Technica but a lot of...

I need some super comfortable headphones to use for gaming/music. I have some LCD-XC and they are phenomenal but sitting with those on your head through hours of gaming gets painful. If there's something close to the HD800 but closed that would be great. Not necessarily sound wise but for...

I have 99% of my music on my phone/ipod and use Spotify to stream a lot of it. I do have it on my computer but its a bit far from where my audio stuff is so unless i stretch a USB cable across the room I can't easily use my computer as my source. Since my dac uses a USB B connection I can't...

This is going to be my first ish set up. A year back I had some HD800s and a Mjolnir (both gone now) I'll be listening with LCD-XCs, possibly the LCD2 or 3 later on  I'm thinking the V100 or 200, or just going for the 280.  On the other hand I'm considering the Mjolnir or the Ragnarok The...

I've been reading a lot of the topics related to what amps people like with the LCDs and I'm stuck trying to decide for one whether the LCD XC or 3 is the better choice for me As far as amps go I'm considering the mjolnir 2, burson conductor v2 and the violectric V200 and oppo ha1 In reality...

Hey guys, I'm looking to puchase my first set of IEMs so I'll have them for a trip im going on next month. I'm loking at the V6S and the V3. The V3 have recieved great reviews and it sounds like a really good option. But the V6S also seem like a good idea because theyre really well rounded for...

So I'm wanting to get myself some CIEMs and I'm working on trading out my HD800s for LCD2s. I'm curious which amp is the best choice here. The Rx is the more price friendly and "new" one so it seems like a good candidate but I'm just concerned about its ability to drive LCD 2s. The international...

I've been trying to figure out all this talk about V-shaped sound signatures and what all these headphone graphs mean. Are there other shapes beside V/U? and are V shapes generally liked for general pleasure listening? I'm just trying to understand what it all means and how you interpret the...

Hey guys I'm looking into getting some ciems and my choice is between the noble 3c and the Ue base model. Not sure what's it's called but it starts at $399. Are there any recommendations between the two or will it be pretty close either way? I've never had IEMs before just some pretty basic...

I have the HD800s and while I really enjoy their quality and overall sound. My music listening categories don't fall into the 800s specialty. Some of my favorite songs are very airy and it really isn't how the songs are meant to play. I'm extremely interested in the LCD2 and LCD XC. However...

So I just got an actual audio setup. When I went to test out headphones the places had some HD audio files and one guy said he recommended using actual CDs instead of digital downloads off iTunes. So I'm looking to learn a bit about what kinds of audio files there are and whether there are...

I'm looking into getting a real audio set up. My current stuff is just some M-100s and a yamaha reciever. I'm wanting to get some LCD2s or HD800. I can't really decide between the two because I cant compare them easily, no where nearby has the 800s and the only place that has LCD doesn't even...

I'm trying to decide between a few choices and even if anyone can recommend any. The main choices are Audeze lcd2 Sennheiser hd700 Beyerdynamic tesla t1 I'm looking for a nice clean clear sound. I don't dislike bass but I'd rather be able to hear the rest of the music without bass drowning it...

I'm going to be picking up some LCDs soon and Im trying to figure out what amp I should get. I was recommended Schiit Vali/Modi combo, but I realized the Vali is a tube amp hybrid and apparently tube amps have a bit of microphonics? I've never experienced this so I don't know exactly what to...

Hey guys, I was wondering if there are any books or anything specifically for audio? I have some electrical books but they don't talk about audio anywhere so I was wondering if there's a place or a book etc that has some Intro stuff on cables and resistance and all that and going into other...

Hello all, I'm thinking about purchasing my first pair of audiophile quality headphones for Christmas. I have a receiver that I have my tv hooked to that plays through speakers and it has a usb for my iPod audio and I was wondering if I can hook my headphones to it if that functions as a...

I'm not an audiophile but I aspire to be. Right now I just have a passion for music and nice headphones. I'm also a game nerd etc. Im not looking for a VS flame war thing. I like pc and Mac. I only have a MacBook pro and in going to be getting a desktop soon but I'm trying to decide whether j...

Hello, first post here, and really on any forum. I recently discovered "audiophile" and I know there is some different views on the word but that's not why I am here.    I have some Vmoda M100s and they got me into the quality sound world. I know there are much better headphones so bear with...
