You have a point But If you see a deal on something, you would buy it. What if you didn't see the deal on something and didn't have it on your mind until the deal was shown here? Sort of an out of sight out of mind situation. There have been plenty of times I have seen something at an...

X1 it is. I don't like the button layout of the X3. The X5 seems bulky and the only benefit I would have from it is the ability to add two Micro SD cards to it, and being realistic here, my library is not that big.   X1 is a great size. The Sansa is limited in the memory and runs from 20-50...

 :( That would be terrible.   Red Hot Chili Peppers sound amazing on them. The bass is there, just not as heavy as I read it to be from reviews, including your posts.   Hmmmm   Is there any way I could test them with data logging as opposed to just listening to them?

I'll start with the X1. Grab it, see if I like it and if I do, keep it and forget about the others. If not, sell it and move on to the X3. They are cheap enough. From my understanding, the X1 should be better than Apple products considering what each product was built to be.

I looked it up to confirm it after I posted :D   This is what I don't understand. Reading reviews of people saying that the bass is very heavy is what made me get them. That, and the price, plus I needed a paid of headphones for work (to bring the ones I have there now home for home days)...

Kinda wish they had more bass, to be honest. I rotate my music a lot and right now I've been listening to a lot of Dada Land / Tiesto

Sucks I can't try before I buy.   Perhaps I could download a third party music app to allow for a much broader variety of music formats.   Or maybe I'm getting my head into it more than I should :(   The only differences I see between the x1 and x5 are the reviews and the fact that I can...

I hate you right now lol. Good headphones though. My opinion is moot though since these are the first audiophile grade headphones I bought. I might have used the word moot in the wrong context. Oh well lol.

I got the denon d600 at best buy for 199. They put them on clearance and won't be getting them back. They are still 359 on best buys website so your miles may vary, could be a store to store thing, not sure. Just a heads up.

Hey all I'm coming from using hd428s for a while now and just bought the denon d600 the other day. I love the way they sound but I had to tweak the EQ settings a bit. I've been doing a lot of reading on being able to power headphones to their max potential and it brings me to this series of...

:P

Sorry about that post. I didn't realize you were talking about what I posted about. I should read a little more.

Does anyone recommend a desktop amp I can pair up with the HD8? Basshead here. Not looking to break the bank to the max but I am willing to spend some money. I would love the Sennheiser DVD800 but don't want to spend 2k on it haha

I don't own many headphones. A friend of mine introduced me to sennheiser and every pair I have bought were amazing quality for the price.   I think it's time I get a NICE pair and couple it with an amp to dive into some really nice sounds that an ampless headphone can't give me. I'm ready to...

Ok cool, I thought my depth perception went to crap for a moment there.   I kept thinking "it looks like your ears go into the cups"

Hold on, let me ask a question. Stupid question.   On ear vs Over ear   I always thought that on ear was literally on the ear and over the ear covered the ears.   Why are they advertised as on ear headphones?

Someone give me a good reason not to buy the HD8. I will be listening to electronic/dub/trance music.   I have the option to add to cart from B&H, no tax and free shipping.   About to pull the trigger but....

LOL I see now how this venture into audio world can get me in SERIOUS trouble.

I want these headphones...... NOW! I can't find a place near me though :( Someone help! lol Zip is 19090

Ok here is a high level overview of what I have learned so far. Someone buys a pair of headphones. Headphones with the ability to spit out certain frequencies, and they use an amp because the player they are using is not powerful enough to push those so called frequencies out in order to...

Oh man haha. Not venturing there (yet)

I'm afraid of going to that side due to the price brackets their headphones are at, and knowing me, and I know you guys can relate, I always want to have more and more lol

Well, I changed jobs and I originally had the Sennheiser HD428 at the other place I worked, mainly because they were cheap and sounded great and were closed back (the place got loud at times and I liked to concentrate the first half of every day). I took those home and I will use them at home...

Ok, I did more research, and I am sticking to the X3 (someone here is selling one for $150).   I switched gears on the headphones. Considering I will be listening to dubstep and trance/techno, electronic (whatever you want to call it lol) mostly, I thought that the overall reviews I've read...
