I'm in the market for an open full size headphone for home theater and gaming use. I'd love it if it sounded great when listening to music as well but that is a secondary and less important concern (I listen to rock, pop, and electronic stuff mostly). Above all the most important thing I'm...

So awhile back I was considering adding my second pair of cans to my Head-Fi collection. I've had my Proline 750s for four years and I love them. They're the cans that got me into the whole Head-Fi thing and arguably the first piece of high quality audio equipment I'd ever owned. So I decided it...

First of all I'd like to say I rue the day I found Head-Fi. The more I read the more I want. This will be the third set of headphones on my "To buy" list on top of my current Ultrasone Pro 750s. However, good lord does my music sound good    Anyway I've given some thought to it and I think...

So after a long hard fought internal struggle the HiFiMan RE262 beat out the Fischer Audio DBA-02 for my future IEMs. My original plan was to use these with my phone and a Fiio E5 with services like Amazon Cloud Storage and MOG (and pretty soon Spotify *girlish scream*). The phone/streaming...

Seems my plans keep changing. Originally I was going to look for a nice pair of open back cans I'd be content enough replacing my Ultrasone PROline 750 with. Then I couldn't part with the 750 because I love em so damn much. Currently I've decided I want to go drop more money than I should on a...

Pretty much what the title says. I've no interest in carrying a pair of headphones around with me when I'm on the go but I'd still like something that sounds good and isolates well. My primary source of mobile music these days is Pandora and MOG (MOG is apt to be replaced by Spotify when it...

Here's my, soon to be, new setup: Sandy Bridge PC outputting audio, via HDMI, to my AVR (Denon 1712) output to my speakers and headphones (Ultrasone PRO 750 and probably a Sennheiser HD 598), and video out of my SLi graphics cards, via DisplayPort, to my monitor. As far as I'm concerned this...

I asked something similar in the source components forum but never got an answer so I'll try here. I'm looking to buy a pair of Sennheiser HD600s or HD650s soon. I do not have a DAC or a headphone amp. However I am planning on buying a Denon AVR-1612 soon as a first step towards putting together...

I'm learning more and more everyday that I know less and less than I think I do. But hey, I'm a video guy trying to get a grasp on this audio thing so it's a fun experience    Anyway I've recently I've come to notice (at least this is the way things seem) a lot of people will run a preamp...

So after four years I'm ditching my Ultrasone Proline 750s. These days I find I'm spending longer periods of time with my headphones on, instead of using my speakers, and the 750s tend to get uncomfortable after 2 or 3 hours.   My budget is around $150. I've only two requirements. First of...

Here's the deal: My cans haven't seen any use for about 6 months because I've been living alone and have had free will to crank the speakers. Tonight cause came up to bust them out of storage (sidenote: My god I forgot how awesome my Ultrasone's sound) and with them my JDS Labs cMoyBB 2.0...

So I've had my 750's for about a year now. I absolutely love them, they sound fantastic. But I have a minor problem: The felt ear pieces. Don't get me wrong, they're incredibly comfortable but they have a tendency to get a little bit itchy and it's incredibly annoying to be watching a movie or...

Recently replaced my 5.1 set-up and with it the receiver. Unfortunately the new receiver doesn't have a headphone output. So what I've been doing when using my headphones is running the audio through the TV via HDMI in and composite out then attaching my headphones to the 3.5 mm jack on the...

I've used the search on Head-Fi, I've Googled it, and I've clicked countless links claiming to link to it in the "There's Something About Ultrasone" thread and I cannot find The Missing Manual: A User's Guide To Ultrasone. Can someone please link me to it? My Proline 750s are nice and burnt in...

Ok, still working on that analytical report for technical writing and I need 5-7 sources to research Ultrasone Proline 750, Bose Quietcomfort 3, and Shure SE530. So far I have CNET and Head-Fi, any other recommendations? I checked headphonereviews.com already and they no reviews for any of those...

My fifth generation iPod bricked last week and I've run out of ideas, I'm out of warranty, I'm not gonna pay Apple $130+shipping to fix it, and I can't find any 3rd party firmware that will install on it. I was just listening to music doing my laundry and it froze, I tried to reset it and it...

Alright guys I know I already bought the Ultrasone Proline 750 but I need some help on a technical writing project. I'm writing an analytical report comparing the Bose QueitComfort 3, Ultrasone Proline 750, and Shure SE530. I figured this would be an excellent source of information and anyone's...

Hey everybody, I was sent here by the AVS Forum folks who claim this is the place I need to be for headphone inquiries. Here's the deal, I'm a freshman studying Audio Engineering and need a solid pair of headphones for my lab work (my cheapy $15 earbuds just ain't cuttin it) and I'd like to...
