Pretty straight forward, I have the AD700 now and use them at home on my PC for a combination of listening to music and watching movies/TV shows.  I like that they're open, comfortable and pretty good for a lot of the stuff I listen to with clean instrumentals and female vocals.  Eventually I...

Ok, this actually isn't for me, but for my girlfriend.  She currently has Sennheiser HD239s, which is happy with sound wise, but now she's started commuting by train, at least a couple of hours a day, and obviously they let a lot of noise in and out, and are far from ideal for that.  She also...

This might have been addressed on here before, but a quick search through the threads on oxidation didn't turn it up.  The question is, if you have an oxidized plug, and you're using that in your source device, and also using it with other headphones, will that oxidation transfer to the output...

  Well I picked up an E11 at B&H yesterday, an addition to FiiO's L9 LOD.  I had browsed the reviews on here before buying and it seemed like a good bang for the buck.  My ideal portable setup would include the Fostex HP-P1, but I can't justify spending that much on a portable amp right now...

Ok, so a couple of weeks ago I was in J&R and saw the ATH-AD700s on the rack. Since selling my SR325s I've been looking for a new fullsized headphone to use at home, I'd heard a lot of good things about them on here so I decided to take a look. The girl behind the counter takes them down and...

Well today, after considering them and other options for a few weeks I finally pulled the trigger on a pair of Denon AH-D2000s. I have to say the un-boxing wasn't the most encouraging experience in the world. The earpads were rotated 90 degrees sideways out of the box, and when I went to rotate...

Hi, I'm planning on buying a portable headphone amp, up until now the only kind I've used is the basic CMOY penguin amp, but I'm looking for something that will give me more options. I was considering the Headroom Total Airhead or Total Bithead because they seem like a really good deal...

Ok, so just as I'm getting ready to sell my Grado SR325is, I'm listening to The Razor's Edge from AC/DC Live: 2 CD Collector's Edition on my AH-D1001ks, and I'm hearing buzzing and crackling during the peaks in the solos. So I pulled out the Grados and the same solos sounded totally smooth...

Hi, I haven't posted on here much, but I've read the forums quite a bit. Currently my headphones include Grado SR325i (the gold anodized ones, not the newest ones), Sennheiser HD 238, Denon AH-D1001 and Etymotic ER-4P. I'd be hard pressed to pick a clear favorite among these, I like them all...
