Since I only have 1 phone as a frame of refernece, is the aiaiai tma-1 "slow" or "fast?"

I tried out/ auditioned/ ABed quite a lot of portables, including HD25-1 II, Beyer DT1350, T50p, B&W P5...etc and for my personal taste i like the HD25-1 II the most (Just for my personal taste, since my friend prefers DT1350 much more) but the problem is that there is nowhere i can audition...

i have bought a good amount of headphones so far and have read reviews on this site for all these headphones for the most part and have used this site often in making choices for headphones now im stuck with a long list of phones and decided to finally make a post to get opinions on which would...

What't the difference in SQ between these and how do both compare to other closed portable like Momentums, DT1350s, B&O H6 etc?

So I've spent the last few hours of the night reading and scouring through all these threads on bass headphones and dubstep but i cant find anything that pertains to me. Budget: 250USD max, probably about 150-200 though. Music: Dubstep - Rusko, Flux Pavilion, Emalkay, Little Jinder, DeadMau5...

I'm looking to upgrade from my Bose On-Ear Headphones to something better.    I mostly listen to Progressive House and Electronic music but also to pop, rock, R'n'b and hip hop, as well as some blues on the odd occasion.   My first thought was to go for the HD 25's but could I justify...

I've searched around for an answer to this question, and didn't quite find anything.   I'm looking for very durable headphones. I would consider headphones with non-neutral sounds, but I prefer neutrality. I'm willing to spend $300, or perhaps more if I can be persuaded by a particularly...

Hi guys!   I haven't found what I was looking for after a search, so I'm starting a new thread (sorry! ;-)).   I began doing some fitness lately and of course listening to music and podcasts while doing so.   My Aiaiaia TMA-1 are too big for doing sports. You sweat like hell with...

Hey all-   I am looking to get a new set of cans for DJing. I DJ old school hip hop, funk and soul, and a tiny bit of electronica. For background: I previously had HD-25-II's. I had no complaints, but I wouldn't have minded slightly more bass on the low-end, I thought highs could be a...

So my buddy just bought himself some Dre Beats. I asked him what his price limit was and he said $300. I asked him if he wanted an amp and DAC and he said no. He also said he didn't want to walk around with an amp so... Not sure where to go with this. He wants to use his phone for music and...

I have been looking at headphones for a while and I cant decide what to get. I want some portable cans that are good for pop and rap. As from the title you know that it has to be about $200 with a comfortable fit for long peroids of time. They will be used for listining calmly and on the bus...

I've been wanting a new pair of phones to replace my crappy Skullcandy's for a while now. At first I really wanted Beats, but after looking at them and listening to them and the price tag, i decided to go down a different path. I looked at many brands and found two or three headphones I liked. I...

Hi I am new here, I first bought an AKG 430 with Fiio E5, now I use AIAIAI TMA-1 with Fiio E11, is there any better cans out there or should I just upgrade my amp ? please reccomend a better replacement.

New the the community and am in need of some advice on what to do.   My daughter just had a birthday and received a pair of Dre's Beats.  My wife being generous purchased a pair for me as well.  She bought them at Best Buy based on the salesperson's advice.  See how my daughter is happy an...

I´ve been reading quite alot to the point I´m confused about which headphones to buy.   My interest in music is very big and love to hear the best possible sound I can find.   I´m interested in neutral or a little bassy sound.   Music I listen to is dance, lounge, chill, classic rock...

Well I have been hearing lots of different choices of different bass headphones. I am a Newbie at this stuff so I need a little advice and help on which to choose from. I was looking for headphones that are great for electronic music as stated in the title that could be used for Portable devices...

*Note: Please pardon the poor quality photos and my amateur level review. I am quite new to headphones. *Edit: Didn't know that Head-Fi isn't using HTML for posting. Have cleaned it up.   TMA-1 left, TMA-1 Studio, Right Introduction This is a comparison of 2 headphones from the...

Hello gang!   I'm sure like a lot of people, I was intrigued by the Philips Fidelio M1 and L1 when they were shown off at CES.  Having scoured the net for some reviews I was disappointed not to find many reviews.  The L1 and M1 are available at John Lewis and I tried both at the booth and...

Which one is better for rock (green day, audioslave, guns and roses, etc.)? I want an exciting headphone which gives me that "aww yeah" feeling when listening to rock. I dislike laid back headphone with a calmer sound. Which one is better for rock and has a more exciting sound? Also, I will...

Rumor has it, AIAIAI is planning a lightweight, portable version of the TMA 1.   Specs says: - lighter than TMA 1 - shielded, double strenghend headband - impendance 32ohms, sensitivity of 102dB, 160grams of weight - listed at 119 Euro   - not available yet.   Earpads seem to be...

When I'm at home, I use speakers. The only time I use headphones is when I'm on the road or when I'm out somewhere using my laptop. I have a pair of cheap headphones which aren't letting me really enjoy my music. (I like really bouncy edm stuff like gabber/hardstyle, and some dnb/dubstep) So...

I am stuck debating whether to buy the infamous M-50, or the Pro700. Currently they are only $40 different in price on amazon, so price is not a variable. I have included links to their amazon pages below.   ATH-Pro700 MK2 ...

Hello Head-fi! I'm a long time lurker first time poster looking for a new set of portables. Right now I am in an "innocence is bliss" state of mind with my Meelectronics m9, portapros, and sennheiser HD 202. Last week I broke the HD202's, but it was time for an upgrade anyways.   I want to...

Soon it is my 30 year old birthday and and for presents i wish a pair of headphones but it is a jungle out there! i have been reading reviews and read forums but it didnt help on what to choose really.   I own the headset called Sennheiser SK160 edition. and i love it i can wear it for...

I love my Portapros, but am wondering if there is another portable headphone that outdoes them in the sound quality department, but maintains the comfort, small size and portability. My price range is flexible.
