Thanks so much for this in depth response.  It's much appreciated.  I am definitely leaning toward the X1's.  I like the fact that I'll be able to plug them into my phone to listen to music when I'm walking around the house.  I guess all I'll need is to think about a DAC now for when I'm at...

Which one of these is better for the following: Most Important Music (Electronic, Classical, Rap, Rock) Gaming(A lot of BF4 so hearing footsteps from different locations is important) Less Important Videos(Youtube videos, Twitch Streams, short movies) Music while traveling(this would be very...

I play a lot of FPS, mainly BF4.  I will always play the battlefield series so I'd really like something that will do well for that game.     I really don't want something that's more than $200-$225.  I'll also have to buy a mic and I'd really like to use V-Moda's Boom mic that attaches...

Cool. Thanks for the info.

I just hate the color. I wish they came in black. Right now I'm considering the Philips Fidelio X1. I play BF3 and BF4 pretty seriously and I've read they are pretty accurate in terms of sound. The other I REALLY like is that it has a detachable cord. That allows me to run a vmoda boom pro...

I'm looking for good headphones to double as music/media AND gaming headphones.  I will be using them A LOT for gaming but also music.  In the past I've had anything from Sennheiser to Klipsch earphones, but never headphones.  I'm really like to max out at $225 since I will have to buy a mic and...

price doesn't really bother me too much, i don't wanna spend more than 300 though and how big are the grados? i'm already looked at with odd looks cause of the way i dress so adding bigger headphones won't really change much plus it's cold, so they can pass as ear muffs , ....as for bitrates i...

the main source would be ipod, it would be a must to get an amp? do they have real small ones? what are their average price?

I am new to the quality headphone area, last night I jacked my fathers pair of kenwood headphones which are a lot better than the standard head phones i have used with my ipod or stereo. listening to the music through them was amazing so now im on the hunt to find a good pair for me. I listen to...
