Hello there, I'm going to buy a portable AMP+DAC that I'm 99% sure will be a Fiio E17. Looking for something in the 100-120€ price range, and these feature:   - good isolation - no sound coloration, good for audio editing also - least fatiguing possible, confortable for long sessions...

I decided to make a post on this forum, because I saw a lot of good info on here! And decided to make my own thread for some specific answers.   I want to start recording my guitar, because I want to make covers of songs and be able to mix my own. I own a Peavey Vypyr Tube 120W guitar...

Hello, I have been on the prowl for a decent headset to buy that I can use for travel (don't need to be collapsible). I'd prefer if they were closed back. I currently own and AKG k240 mk II as my main headset at home. I'd like to find something of equal or greater quality I'm currently hunting...

Just looking for some higher quality headphones for $100 or less. My current headphones are the Incipio F38 headphones. I've been looking at Grado sr80i, some used ATH-M50's, Phillips City-Scape, and Shure SRH440. Give me some recommendations. I listen to mostly Punk, Thrash, Indie, Ska...

hi everyone first time poster here   recently started to study piano again, and I chose an acustic piano Yamaha B1 with Yamaha Silent System, meaning I can plug a headphone and the sound comes from a digitalization of piano music. So even if the piano itself is off tune, the sound I will...

First of all, and I'm sure you hear this all the time, I'm a newbie to audio.     Currently I have a pair of HD280 Pros that I enjoy.  Typically I listen to them through a receiver which is connected via stereo splitter to the 3.5mm jack on my desktop.  I realize that that isn't an ideal...

Hey ppl, just joined the forum today. I'm curious, I just bought some of those V-80 headphones and was lookin into a headphone amp. Don't want a fullsize home setup, but rather something I could take with me places, but still have the power and clarity of something bigger. Does anyone own a pair...

Dear Head Fi community,   Been lurking around for quite some time now but can't really find the solution for my problem. I know there are a 1000 diffrent threads like mine already out there, but everyone seems to suggest diffrent ones, and since I am not able to listen to each and every...

these headphone look phenomenal and I've heard they sound great but they are pretty pricy.

Some smaller ensemble pieces, like also jazz instrumentals and vocals, other types not as much.   Running them off a NAD integrated amplifier.   If they exist would like to keep cost closer to $100 to $125 pair.  Read good things about Senns 518/558/598s, AKG's, ATHs.  Have owned AT...

My pair of AKG Q701s just arrived, and I am so far delighted with them. I am using them primarily for mixing and mastering music. The one little thing that's been bothering me is the disgustingly ugly neon green cable that doesn't match the headphones in the least. So my question: can I use the...

Hey,   im currently using akg 240 MK II headphones and using macbook pro and logic. I was thinking of buying a portable gear with them but cant decide which one is good for me? i mostly produce hip-hop, rnb house and pop. i was thinking of buying apogee one, but dont know is it too much for...

HI everyone first I want to apologize for my English. I hope it will be readable. I have just purchased a Sennheiser HD 598. Before I bought it I was searching on head-fi and on Google for a direct comparison of Sennheiser HD 598 and AKG K 272 or 240 (which I own). I have found only a few of...

Does anyone have both of these to compare?   I'm going to assume by default that the 550 is an improvement in clarity and isolation, and I've heard it's less amp-hungry.   However what I'm most curious about is the bass. I love the overall sound signature of my 240s but the bass doesn't...

I was going to get some velour pads for my Superlux but which is better? The DT770 pads or the AKG 240   I can get the Beyer pads for about $46 on Ebay and the AKG for $50'sh. Which is better

I'm looking for my first semi-serious pair of headphones, to use primarily directly on the headphone-output of my computer. I'll be listening to games and music (alt / rock / pop, a little bit of classical music).   My desk is situated next to our living room with doors usually open. This...

Hey guys, im starting to think about getting a new pair of cans to replace my K240 MKII's. Not because their broken or anything, its just now i have a job and would like to get a pair of headphones that are a bit better then the MKII's for some nicer sound. Ive scoured these forums and had a...

Hello all, I hate to bring up another one of *these* threads, Ive seen plenty of them in my search for the correct answer. Im looking for the best (in your personal opinion) set of headphones for under $100 that fit my tastes. I'm a broke college student but I would spend more if I could, and I...

Im looking to buy some full size over ear headphones, around 150. i was looking at the ath m50, as they are only 111 on amazon. any other recommendations?

I just picked up an Apogee Duet 2.  It is a cool piece of kit, and it pairs very nicely with my DT130.  There are 2 issue that keep the pairing from being excellent:   1) output impedance of the duet 2 is about 35 ohm.  Using the 8x rule, somewhere around 250 to 300 ohm would be about right...

I am wondering what the most comfortable headphones under $300 are. I currently own studios and would like something more comfortable than them. Preferably leather or pleather ear cups and they must be around/over ear. Thanks!

Hi, I have emailed my professor about buying studio headphones for digital audio course since its required, and he told me the first that comes to mind is The Seinheiser 280, but he will try to find his full list and email me it soon, however its been a week or so and I still haven't received...
