    Thanks Guys- AKG K81

    I've been listening without foam and I believe I prefer it. Yeah, some nice punch goin on even with Immortal's Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism. Listened to Renaud Garcia-Fons' newest album and it was great to hear some of the nuances of his bow on the bass- great clarity and detail. Can't...

    Thanks Guys- AKG K81

    I'm also finding that the deep bass response is doing wonders for a lot of the shoddily recorded Black Metal that I listen to. On typical speakers I could not hear the bass drum any at all and drums in general sounded very distant. The bass response on these things are bringing the bass drum...

    Music Similar to "Arch Enemy"?

    I'd say check out Nevermore for sure. Also check out Symphony X's "The Odyssey"- not the same genre but I really think you'd like it- more progressive with some great arrangements yet retaining heaviness. Great stuff- check it out.

    Thanks Guys- AKG K81

    So I recieved my K81 DJ Phones today. I really like the look of them- perfect size for my head and ears. The do clamp well and isolate well- I can't even hear myself typing on the laptop. They are a but uncomfortable on my left ear but they will stretch out. I was weary of all the "flubbed...

    Bad Albums by Good Artists, and the Head-Fi'ers who love them.

    Sorry to resurrect an old thread but: Opeth- Deliverance. Often this is considered boring by Opeth fans. They often rave highly of Black Water Park. While BWP is enjoyable I like this one better, I don't know why. Dr. Dre- 2001. Many say that the original Chronic was better but I prefer...

    Thank you Metal-fi'ers! \mm/

    I find Still Life to be better than BWP by Opeth. Check out Novembre man.

    What do you guys think? I will not be doing an iMod. Sorry- don't have the cash for that sort of thing. I've been a diehard discman guy for a long time as my friends have converted to dap's so I figure it's my turn (and I dont have to haul my large cd booklet around with me everywhere)...

    One More Comparison Request- Sennheiser HD 25-SP vs AKG K81

    So I read all this hype about the k81. I read about the boominess and flub in the bass as well. I have been searching around and I found the Sennheiser HD 25-SP. It looks to be a bit more balanced (although still boomy perhaps), still works with an IPOD, and looks durable/travel-ready. Are...

    Sorry guys- finally found a thread like this. I suppose you guys can delete this unless you guys want to contribute more in depth ideas.

    Phillips HP460 vs AKG K81 Dj- Any Opinions?

    I've been considering the AKG's for a first time "real" headphone purchase. However I heard some rumours that the HP460's are quite similar but I haven't read any ear to ear reviews. The Hp460's are a bit less expensive so I am considering those now as well if they are just as good as the AKG's...
