Budget: $500 AUD but preferably much less if possible. I have posted a similar thread not too long ago but I was not nearly clear enough and have tried some headphones plus learned quite a bit since then. I am going to a headphone store very soon and would like to get a few suggestions since...

Thank you for for your replies. @DazedNconfused Yes, the 7520 hits the low notes very well. However, I don't get the sense of that low end rumble and feel which I want. Regarding the holy grail comment, I'm not looking for the perfect headphone because I don't have that kind of money to spend...

I've been listening to these headphones for a couple of weeks now, and as great as they are, I don't think I am happy with them. I have to admit something. I don't think I did enough research and/or asked enough questions before buying the 7520, and I feel silly because Malfunkt gave me plenty...

Schiit Magni 2 Yeah, I think it's largely because I'm not used to hearing such detailed treble. Also, today I came to the realisation my ears just are sensitive to certain frequencies, regardless of headphones. The impact of the kick drum I was talking about is loud to my ear on pretty much any...

I was using the Audio Technica ATH-MSR7 before I bought the 7520, but I was switching back and forth with my Shure SRH840 as well. I also own the Beyerdynamic DT990 and ATH-M40x. In regards to the treble, I've realised I'm still just adjusting to the sound, I've only had them for a few days...

I ended up choosing the Sony MDR-7520 and I received these headphones a few days ago. These are amazing headphones! I love how well they handle all of the different musical genres I throw at them. The 7520 is also the most detailed headphone I've listened to yet. I do want to get into more...

Hi, yes I would prefer closed but I may be willing to switch to open. There's no reason why I can't - but all the outside noises (wind, cars, neighbours) and even people in my house talking can bother me. I'm using the Schiit Magni 2 and Modi 2 headphone amplifier and DAC, respectively. My...

Hi, I made a thread back in october asking what headphone I should buy that has deep bass extension and mids that aren't recessed. So after reading a few replies, the two headphones I was directed towards were the Shure SRH1540 and Sony MDR-7520. I've read Malfunkt's excellent review and the...

The Shure SRH1540 looks so nice. It costs $700 here in Australia, though. I guess I'll just have to save up. I already really liked the sound of the SRH840, so if the 1540 had some low-end, I can see how amazing that would be. Of course they might be completely different though. Any other...

Budget: $500 AUD Hi, as the title suggests, I am looking for over ear closed headphones with good sub-bass and mids that aren't recessed. When I say "good" sub-bass, I've never owned a headphone where I've actually been able to hear or feel the lower end frequencies below 100hz. I am NOT a...
