Hey hey hey,   I am a producer and just purchased the Sennheiser HD600 for mixing and mastering as it was available for a decent price on amazon. When doing studio work with my DT770s, I find myself constantly running over the chord with the chair at the mixing console. After further research...

So I just received my XPT100s today, and I am pretty impressed, although they sound pretty tight. I will have to let them break in a bit before I develop an opinion... From what I can tell so far, vocals and woodwinds sound fantastic, but the bass is rolled off. When I connected my Fiio E12 they...

I just picked up a set of these for $9 at a Goodwill store. I couldnt resist the price. It will be interesting to see how they sound with a Mont Blanc and I am going to try to find new earpads if theyre worth it...

Maybe I mis-read something... I think I will still be happy with the purchase. Soundstage is not my selling point, the quality of the sound is what matters to me. So with that considered, I think its a good can for me to add to my collection, especially for the price.

Thank you all for the great responses. I think I will go with the XPT100s. I hear that they have a really great soundstage for a closed can. It will be interesting to compare them to my K550s... I purchased them from Sonix and they were $99 which I am fine with paying.   I was looking at the...

I do listen to quite a bit of electronic, but not much EDM. I think I will cross them off because of the over-emphasized bass... How are the v6s different from the prodj100s?

I need help in deciding which set of cans to get. My current options are the MDR-V6/7506, T50rp, NVX Audio XPT100, Crossfade LP, and SE215. I listen to jazz, ambient, house, IDM, classical, hip-hop, and folk.   Let me know what you think.

Would it be worth getting the m50s with the velour beyerdynamic pads?

Maybe even the Brainwavs HM5 or the NVX Audio XPT100. Both of which I have read decent reviews on.

Hello, all!   I am looking for a set of headphones around $100-$150. I already have the AKG K550s, and the Beyerdynamic T90s. I listen to a lot of jazz, ambient, classical, acoustic, hip-hop, trip-hop, IDM, house. I will be powering these with a Fiio e12 Mont Blanc. I will mostly be using...

Thank you for those links, those were a great help. I decided to go with the E12 Mont Blanc, because it will have ample power for my 250 ohm Beyerdynamics.   Troy

Do you know how the E07k matches up to the E12 mont blanc?

Hi guys,   I'm looking for an amp under the $150 price point. The products I have been looking at are the Fiio E07k, JDS Labs Objective 2, and the Fiio E12. Ill be using it to power a Beyerdynamic DT770 250 ohm, and an AKG K550. Any recommendations welcome. As usual, the cheaper the better. ...

Im thinking of modding a set of Koss PortaPros instead of purchasing something a bit more expensive such as the Beyer DT770s or K701/K702/Q701. Any suggestions on headphones that may be a better option on mod recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I listen to jazz, IDM, ambient...

I am attached to the K550. If you would like to read my review, here it is (http://www.head-fi.org/products/akg-k-550/reviews/10231). I have modded the ear pads and the cable and can post more info about how to do so if you would like me to.   Troy

I think I've come to the conclusion that the hp50/focal spirit are too small. Im not sure where to look at this point, I'm indecisively stuck in a gloomy IEM or Full-sized realm...   Troy

Has anyone heard anything about the Westone IEMs, or the Heir Audio IEMs?   Troy

I have been back and forth between IEMs and another pair of closed-back over-the-ear headphones for a few weeks now. After realizing that IEMs would be more practical for me, I had no clue as to what to look for. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I listen to lots of jazz, IDM...

I have been looking at these. They look great and seem like they are built like rocks. To be honest though, at this point I am more leaning toward IEMs unless persuaded otherwise. I will look more into the MDR 7520s though.   Troy

Thanks for the info, Roy. I have a portable Fiio E18 Kunlun amp that I use to power my K550s, maybe that would power the Mad-Dogs as well? I do adore my K550s but I need another set of closed cans to give me a point of contrast.   Troy

Its good to hear that they are comfortable. I am unsure if they will fit my large ears though! Hearing from multiple sources that large ears don't fit in the ear-cups shies me away from looking into purchasing them. Maybe I should go give some a test at a retailer.   Troy

  Chris,   I remember hearing good things about the ATH ESW9 in another thread. Maybe I'll give those a look.   As for HiFi-man, I have heard the He-400s and I'm not too big of a fan. Their colossal size is really what drives me away. I had also purchased the RE-600 IEMs from HiFi-man and...

Her music on the K550 sounds fantastic. Especially the album Medulla because it is completely vocal. I love sharing music with fellow audio enthusiasts, glad you enjoyed!   Troy
