    Guitar Center DT770Pro-80

    I got my 770 from GC for 150, I just told the salesman that I could get then for 150 online and he never required an ad.

    headphones in dorms

    I was using my sr-60's for a while with my roomies in the room. They didn't care because they had their own music going. One of the reasons I upgraded to closed cans wasn't because of pleasing them, but I wanted to block out the noise they made. dt770's do a much better job at isolating me then...

    Song w/ WORST SQ to debut my Darths with

    I never noticed the clipping cuz all ive ever had are encoded versions of the cd. I guess thats one benefit of using ripped music.

    Song w/ WORST SQ to debut my Darths with

    how come californication has such a bad rap? I was listening to one copy of the cd encoded at 128 kbs, then I listened to my flac encoding. The flac has clipping on every song. Is this normal?

    Binaural Darth?....

    thats a pretty interesting thing to listen too. you should take these things into a forest or something and record nature. That would be a fun listen.

    Got My Vibes Today, Need IEM Advice

    are you sure your making a good seal? If your not used to IEM's they may feel very intruding. But you pretty much have to shove them into your ear canal and twist unless they seal right. If you dont have a seal then most of the sounds gets out and not in.

    so... have people called u crazy?

    My girlfriend calls me everyday when I talk about headphones. I was roller blading on lake shore drive today and I thought i says those $500 custom IEM UE5 I think. I pointed them out and she just rolled her eyes.

    closed headphones for ~$150

    u could go to guitar center and try to get them to knock down the price on the dt770's. Thats how i got mine for 150+ tax

    Did I mess up my ears???

    pinching your nose and blowing out pushes your drum out. Perhaps you need to push them in

    Props to Etymotic for their customer service

    did you read the comments, seems like other people had less then friendly things to say about their customer service.

    Pretty sweet set up you got there. I agree, you need a bigger desk

    Recommendations for relatively cheap canal earbuds?

    I also have modded marshmallows. I kind of did my own mod, I completely removed the paper filter, but instead of putting foam back in, I let it empty. I then took ear plugs, the ones used for sleeping, cut holes in them and put them on as tips. They are much softer and easier to use, hi's are...

    IEM for sleeping needed

    I always sleep with my marshmallows in, it takes a few tries, but i can usually position my head so i dont feel them at all.

    dt 990pro vs dt770pro

    If you can get them for 100, then that is a great deal. You should buy me a pair, then i can sell them on here.

    dt 990pro vs dt770pro

    I picked up mine from Guitar center today. I got them to knock the price down to $150 plus tax. I just told them that I could get it online for that price, they didn't even ask for an ad or anything of the sort.

    dt 990pro vs dt770pro

    bass is excellent, I can only compare them to my sr60's, but it is much more present. It is not super punchy, I think it is kind of boomy, but they have not been burnt in yet. The sound stage is a lot more of a noticeable change for me. I even let my mom listen to the two and she could tell a...

    Why don't the other headphone manufacturers get a clue on the cables like Sennheiser?

    I dont know about that, these new dt770's I got put new meaning to a long cable for me. I thought the sr60 was long, and the 770's put them to shame.

    Why don't the other headphone manufacturers get a clue on the cables like Sennheiser?

    I agree with Micheal, the people here are in the minority of all the people who listen to headphones. Even the people who buy $300 headphones arent always people who know that a cable can change the sound. So for the companies, its just an unnecessary expense.

    Best closed cans under 150 US Dollars

    I think I got a good deal from them though, because I was just price quoting the dt770's from the for sale section. I don't think I have ever seen a new pair for that cheap.
