    Cans for ultra-intelligibility of the spoken word

    As below, I've got HD650's and am pretty happy with them but don't get, and won't get, the chance to compare with others, no decent stockist anywhere within reach at all. I probably want to end up with two pairs, one for music one for film and TV. Unless something like the HD800 could be one...

    100 mW into 32 Ohm - What constitutes a decent output?

    Next logical step after HD650's

    Hello, I'm considering taking a step up from my HD650's as I am using headphones a lot while we have a young son. The HD650's are driven by the Dolby Headphone output from a Linn Kisto. This drives the headphones easily volume wise, I could go louder than I could bear without any...
