Undoubtedly I have interest in the hd25, they are just overkill for what I need right now. :P

Head-fi delivers! I'll be getting these soon. Thanks guys.

/\ Damn you head-fi! lol I think I might hold out and get the ES7 when I can justify spending more dough (would rather buy new). They seem about perfect for what I need.

ljokerl, sound leakage is big for me. I don't want it at all. From what Ive read the G2A's leak sound, but in your review you say they dont let sound out. Can you elaborate on this? How would they compare to the px200 in that aspect?

Haha sorry man, I did skim through about two or three pages of posts, note the term "skim". :P Your thread's review of the 'Yuin G2A' intrigues me. I like the design, the price, and the fact that they are closed. Others that intrigue me are the px200 and the AKG K81 DJ. I'll do some...

Hey guys, I'm in need of a new portable headphone. I'm decently versed in circumaural cans, but completely lost when it comes to portability. I basically just need something for school, but don't want anything in ear. My question: What is the consensus best Closed Supraaural headphone for...

I specifically remember my HD555s excelling at acoustic guitar and vocals in general. Should be a good choice if thats what you want. Can't compare to the 485's. If I were you I'd demo them in store if possible.

Yah totally agree. I'll have to listen to these 600s more, but I'm really starting to like them. They're giving me the compulsion to rip all my CDs in FLAC.

I just got a pair of these. Sorry for the bump After almost two years almost exclusively listening to my DT770s - I gotta say its a breath of fresh air to listen to these cans. Everything is just so clean and crisp. Definitely remind me of my old HD555's. :]

I'm curious, is there a way to order replacement parts for these headphones? Specifically a headband and headband buckles (these things) Ive been here Spare Parts, Maintenance & Repair but no pricing to be found. I have Beyerdynamic DT770 80

Any idea about these pleather/leather pads on beyers website? How different are they when compared to the original velor? Im still open to answers for my original question btw

Hey does anyone know of a place to get replacement beyerdynamic pads? I have a pair of dt770 and would like to replace my current ear pads. The only problem is, they seem VERY hard to find. I know of beyerdynamic DT770 Cushions @ HeadRoom - Right Between Your Ears and beyerdynamic...

i would like to add alittle bit to that, if unrelated. I had both optical and coaxle hooked to my computer at once through the zero. Switched between the two, absolutely no difference. Hell, not even a static sound when I pressed the button.

I always imagine the day when Id see wireless earbuds... I didnt think they'd look as ugly as those, and cost that much. Are these a first?

HD555. Ive owned mine for well over a year (havnt seen much use since the dt770s). They are great right out of my computer, so they should be fine out of a high quality sound card. Definitely do not need an amp. They do leak at high volumes though. I don't know how bad it is compared to the...

I would also like to thank Penchum aswell. Thanks for the review, without it, iI would've missed out on this great amp/dac!

When 'Phone' is turned off, I can also hear faintly through my headphones. Once the volume knob is below 25% I cant hear anything.

uuhg. Not only can I not connect it to my TV without the delay problem, but I can connect it to my xbox without repetitive crackling sounds. The only thing that it works flawlessly with is my computer. Which is where I'll use it the most, but this sure cuts back the versatility of it for...
