Heya! 'resurrecting an old thread to tell you that my own HD-280 Pro's are on my head! I've been listening to music for ~3 hours, but let me say that this pair of headphones really surprised me in the first seconds of listening, the deepness of.. well, everything, the acoustic depth of these...

Well, technical question now, is it possible to quantize the vinyl quality? Or you just can't even estimate, because it's analog?

Hehe thanks a lot for this advice neilvg

Thanks a lot homer! Hehe *In the subject* Well the K701's and the ER's are tempting! *Not in the subject* For now i'm gonna go for closed headphones, for recording, producing, maybe DJ'ing, like HD-280's or V6's. (Well, if you know about better closed monitoring headphones tell me hehe...

Well, i'm about to buy either the V6's or the HD-280's, so i'm choosing between the HD-280's, which seem to have not enough lows and highs, and the V6's, which seem to have not enough mids... And i know i'm not in the appropriate forum, but well, talkin' about speakers... Are Edirol MA-15D...

Hehe yeah nice

I've heard a lot about that, «CDs sound better, vinyls sound better» etc, and i've honestly still never heard a vinyl recording, but i'm really curious about knowing if there's a real quality difference between vinyls and CDs. Obviously yeah it's 2 different medias so there is definitely a...

Well, the title says it all Any recommendations? More exactly, i want precision, nothing else. This may be weird to say, but i want to hear the output of my sound card, not what the headphones want me to hear. I know, what i want just doesn't exists and there is no *perfect* headphones...

Quote: Originally Posted by beedee IMO, depending upon what kind of music you're listening to, HD280's may lack that bass "impact" or punch, but the low bass extension is very nice and very low. Yeah, 'saw on Headphone Reviews that the bass is indefinitely extended, almost...

Quote: Originally Posted by psyco1 The HD25-1 has a more flat sound than the V6(the V stands for it's freq curve LOL), the Senn HD280 has a much leaner, yet more neutral sound than either. Though, I suppose if you know your phones characteristics, you could adjust accordingly...
