Thats some very good info, thanks for that post. Most of what I listen to is old rock and pop songs uploaded to YouTube, not exactly high quality audio. Some more forgiving headphones in that sense would be helpful to me. I'll look into the HD 650's. I already own the Momentum 2.0, so why not...

I've heard the exact opposite about the e10k, that it struggles to drive high impedance headphones. But if you think it can power some 250ohm cans then I'm open to recommendations My budget is like $200-$300, I dont want to get too crazy

Hello, I'm looking for some nice mid impedance open back over hear headphones. They cant be too difficult to drive because I have a fiio e10k dac/amp which struggles to power high impedance headphones. Can someone give me some recommendations? I listen to classic rock, pop and rap.

I'm replacing my on board audio so I need both.

Hello, I'm in the market for an entry level DAC/Amp combo mostly for my computer speakers. I don't own any high impedance headphones, all i really have is a pair of Momentum 2.0's, but these are not high impedance. I need advice on which $100 product to purchase. I really like the design of the...

But both those $30 headphones support AptX and have Bluetooth 4.1

I guess I'm underestimating the amount of technology companies can cram in an earbud. I mean, I understand there can be a very large difference between $30 over-ear cans and $300 over-ear cans. But I always assumed that was because there was a lot more room in those headphones to put in better...

I'm in the market to purchase some new earbuds, I was looking at bluetooth "wireless" ones because I'd like to use them on a treadmill, and I noticed that $30 earbuds seem to have all the main features that a $150 pair does. bluetooth, wireless, 8hr battery life,etc. I don't understand why...

oh, ok. Well could you recommend me some headphones that would be able to take advantage of this quad channel DAC? AFAIK the phone comes with B&O earbuds which I assume would take advantage of this. At least I hope so

Hi guys, I'm not sure about how this stuff works so I need to ask you. I plan on upgrading my phone to the LG v30 and it has a built in “32-bit Advanced Hi-Fi Quad DAC”. I need to know if this is compatible with my Momentum 2's.

What about the Sennheiser HD 598's (special amazon edition)? I'm looking at those. The price seems to be right at around $150

Thanks for the responses guys. Could you also recommend a pair of around-ear open back headphones for under $200?

I'd like to spend less than $200. I don't know if I want something that's overly bassy. I just want something that will be versatile and good for all types of music. I mostly listen to 90s rap and 60's classic rock. I need a pair of headphones that will be very forgiving of older and poorer...

I can't because I'm a noob. I don't even really know what terms like 'sound signature', 'bright', 'warm', etc even mean.

I don't know if I'm looking for something 'similar' but I am looking for something 'better', if that makes any sense.

Hi guys, I'm new to audiophilia and the ATH-M50's were my first headphones when I bought them 2 years ago. I ended up giving them away as a gift and now I'm wondering whether I should buy another pair of M50's or upgrade to the MSR7's. I don't use an amp, I typically listen through my computer...

Thanks for the replies guys. So it sounds like you're telling me there won't be much noticeable improvement in audio quality going from a Xonar DG to a more expensive sound card. Do you instead recommend any kind of equalizer app or program to download and use? I know that the VLC player has a...

Hi guys, like my title and username suggests I'm a noob who doesn't know what they're doing. Both in the audiophile sense and in general in all aspects of life. I own a pair of ATH-M50s and  a pair of eGrado's and listen to most of my music with my PC, mostly using youtube. I own a cheap $20...
