Hi all,   which of these for best sound quality and comfort?   (listen to indie, alternative, rock)   any thoughts would be most appreciated   thanks,   jums

Hi,   I currently use AD700 for playing games but I have realised the games I play don't benefit from sound stage (World of Warcraft, Starcraft II, etc). For some reason the right can has stopped working so I am looking to upgrade.   My budget is around $150-200 and since sound stage is...

I'm about to buy a new pair of headphones and I'm completely lost with these things. I'm a newbie in the world of headphones so forgive me if I say something dumb.   So, what I need the headphones for? Mostly for playing guitar at home and for ordinary computer use, like gaming or listening...

  I'm looking for a pair of headphones under $200 that would work well with a wide variety of music--classical (mostly baroque and modern), IDM, post-rock and noise, some acoustic and vocal stuff. I have no preference whether they're open or closed. I get migraines, so I need something...

Okay, so I recently sold my SRH440, and because of that, I'm interested in getting new pair of headphones, so this is a suggestions thread. If it helps for suggestions, I also own the K601, and I'm really enjoying the AKG sound. I'm looking to get something in the $100-200 range...

Hey everyone, I'm really new to high quality head phones (I've never owned anything better than standard ipod earbuds) but I really want some great over-ear headphones.  I've been trying to research on my own, but it gets really complicated and frustrating...seems like lots of headphones "need"...

I've been reading around, for the price M50 seems like a good set, but I know that open can's are better, is this a huge issue?    I've been hearing that grado's are good for rock but not versatile to handle much else, are there any akg's or beyer dynamics that would be better than grado's...

Need's versatility for different genres.   I'm a little bit of a basshead at times, but I don't want bass on all songs.    Listen to a lot of electro, chillout, downtempo, dubstep, and soul/jazz.   Pretty Diverse right? But I don't need them for rock. < do not listen to that much...

Are these 600ohm? Thats what I thought they were but Im not sure (i might pick them up)   And on a side note, I understand that I'll need a amp but exactly wat would the volume be straight out of something like an ipod or something? Incase it's a while until I get an amp.

Alright, so my Bose in ear headphones just broke. I know you guys dont really like Bose, but hey, they were a gift. Ok, so I have a budget of around $100, but can go up to ~$150. Usually had in ear headphones, but willing to switch to on ear, or around ear. Uses are gaming and music. Music...

I made my first headphone purchase maybe half year ago, going with the ATH-M50s due to it's positive reviews around here and I was extremely pleased with them The quality is really is something else from what I had before. I really must thank everyone around here for that ^^   I'm now...

Hi,   I'm currently using some crappy low-quality headphones and I want to finally make the jump into some high-quality headphones. I was hoping you guys could help me narrow down the headphones I have in mind. They are going to be used mostly for gaming and some music (a large variety of...

Does anyone have these AKG K301 Xtras? Are they anything like the reviewer on Amazon says they are? http://www.amazon.com/AKG-Acoustics-...491149?ie=UTF8

My main usage is gaming and music. Music types is Mainly trance and heavy bass music. Hardcore Techno, Drum and bass as well as Hardstyle. What would you suggest for me? I was looking at the HD555 but hear they lack bass. As well as the HD280 but looking they have a durablity issue. What would...

Are used AKG K240 Sextett headphones for $135 priced right?

I'll just be using my AKG K240 Sextetts with an ipod classic. Will it still be worth it to get these headphones?

see and the pics shown. I have never seen such structure of such Monitor.

Hi, I'm new here and I'm confused as to what I'm looking for in a new pair of full-size headphones. I currently have the Audio Technica ATHM40fs for full-size headphones and the Soundmagic PL30s for portable earbuds. I'm looking to replace the ATs. The cord is hopelessly tangled in the middle...

I am interested on recabling my K240 M and I wanted to know who has done so and how they did it.  If there is a step by step listed anywhere I would appreciate the link.  

I got the AKG K240 (Studio) in the mail a few days ago and so far I've burned them in for two nights straight and have listened to them for 5 hours yesterday and even more today. Right now I'm really addicted to them. Last night I couldn't wait until I could listen to them when I woke up.  ...

First off I've spent a lot of time over the last couple days searching and found some good info but it's overwhelming.  I figured it's easier to just make a thread about my specific needs.   I'm looking for the best set of headphones for $50 - $100. I'd prefer to spend $50 but am willing to...

I'm a college student and classical music lover in need of some peace and quiet. I'm looking to spend between $100 and $200 for a decent set of headphones. I have a few preferences: Noise Isolation Would rather not buy an amp just yet Looking for dorm-room durability (which is why Grados...

I got a pair of Grado SR125s a couple of years back, but just moved and haven't received them yet, so in the meantime I'm going to buy a new pair of phones. My music choices are mainly rock. Stuff like: The Beatles, Jethro Tull, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Pixies, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Smashing...

Right now I have AKG 701, but I want to buy another headphones under 250 USD.   Beyerdynamic, AKG (again), Audio Technica? I don't know... How good are AKG K240 or Audio Technica AD700. What is the difference? What about Beyerdynamic DT800? Maybe, there are other options?   I need...

I was wondering this today, i was thinking about how much praise AKG discontinued headphones get, K501, K601,K1000, even K240 Sextetts. And I thought ,"wait why would they discontinue their best?   When I used K701's I didn't like them unless it was with Bach or some other classical or...
