I didn't get a response in the recommendations thread, so I will try in a thread.   I currently have the original Bose AE, and they are finally completely falling apart (pads and wire coming loose). I have been reading on here for the last few hours and have seen a ton of recommendations...

Hi everybody! :) I just got the V-Moda LP2 and I have to say that the bass is simply amazing, ground shaking, cinema like, exactly what I was searching for. On the other hand I have the MTPC where I just love the highs and the mids and the small details that they provide, they are simply amazing...

Looking for a decent pair, not of the bottom segment, but relatively low end of the good ones. Dont really have a set budget. Have done some research, and the 2 front runners at the moment are:   audio technica ath-m50 shure srh840   Its quite important to me that they're relatively...

Hey :)     I am looking for a new pair of headphones. They need to be under 525 dollars (353 GBP)   I am going to use the headphones for pretty much everything. Gaming, music at home, music from iPhone, skyping, movies... everything.   They need to have/be the following:  ...

Hi guys, i need your help to recommend some of the budget headphone that suit for classical and vocal music. I prefer those could give a relaxing sound and comfort to wear since i feel that my sony V7506 is quite sharp and hard to have a long and relax time for listening to music. my budget is...

Hi, im looking into getting a set of headphones for listening to my ipod and traveling with. I know the full size cans might be a little big to travel with but I will just keep them in a backpack for easy access.I dont really want the open cans even though I think I would really enjoy listening...

Been on here for a few days trying to pick my next set, and have now settled down on one of these 2 (although the DT770's are still in my mind). I have tried to find a comparison between the 2 and just can't seem to. I can get the 700's on Amazon for $130 or the 900's for $200, so I really want...

Hello,   I am looking to buy a closed headphone for use at work. Already owned the 770 250 ohm version and i am looking to get something overall better. What should i look for? I know that matching the low level of sound leakage is hard, but i am looking for headphones that would come close to...

I have been reading and lurking doing research on head fi for a little while before deciding to purchase some headphones and earphones. I am just visiting Hong Kong and decided to purchase these new headphones that just hit the market here. I tested these against the Beyerdynamic DT770's,DT880...

So I'm looking to get a new pair of full sized headphones, and I'm fairly interested in these two. I know they just came out a few months ago, but I can't seem to find any comparisons at all-- even between the older models. Initially I was looking at the A900 at $250, but then when the update...

I had a pair of 770 pro 80 ohms a few years back and I was trying to find new sets of them but they seem so scarce. Up for trying something new, but I would want it to be similar. Not planning on amping them. Just running my onboard sound on my Asus Maximus IV Hero.     Thanks for any input!

Never mind

I had a chance to audition the ATH-A900X extensively last night (i.e., bought them from Best Buy then returned them this morning), and I thought they sounded fantastic.  I haven't owned $200+ headphones in a while, and I've been thinking about the next route to take.  Soundstage was excellent...

Gear: Player: Colorfly C3 \ PC Amps: Fiio E07K (DAC) - - - If needed, I could also buy FiiO E09K (Desktop AMP) Current phones: Audio Technica M50 I listen to rock and rap mostly What phones at the range of 150$ would you reccomand? *the cheaper - the better.

I have just gotten the V-Moda XS and I feel like the bass is a little too much and like the sound is a bit too congested for me.   I would like to know if you guys would recommend the Sennheiser Momentum (Over Ear) over the V-Moda XS and why. If not, please tell why you would recommend...

I own the AK120 and am wondering if people use a quality headphone amp without modifying the 120?I understand the concept of the modification but am interested in peoples opinion regarding the use of an amp with headphones or IEM's that are not very efficient and require amplification!Is the...

So today I just got my new Audio Technica ATH-A900x for around $295USD and am satisfied with these cans. They just suit my preferences so well. I'm new to this and I'm just purely stating my own honest opinion. So please go easy on me and pardon my not so professional/detailed explanations ><...

I've thought about getting a decent pair of in-ears recently, and I'm wondering if there are any out there which have a similar sound signature to the A900Xs, because I really like them.  I realize I probably won't get the soundstage and sense of space that the Audio Technicas offer, but you...

I'm going to be getting some money soon. So I'm thinking I oughta buy expensive headphones, then be horrified at how much money I spent. I listen to mostly rock (although a good bit of the prog I listen to almost sounds classical), with some ABBA and Rick Astley thrown in there. My favorite...

After having tried out the above Senns, I'm left with mixed impressions. On one hand, I love the detail and clarity of sound. On the other hand, they are quite uncomfortable to wear for prolonged sessions. With the latter winning, I'm thinking of getting Beyers, instead. But would they be a...

Hi headfi commity, I am new to this but I was thinking about getting a new headphone. My final two decisions are the m50s and a900x. Did anyone have or have listened to both of these? Please tell me what are the differences in sound quality(bass, mids, highs). I would love to hear what you guys...

I'll be using these mainly at school, so portability is nice, although i wouldn't mind lugging around the a900x's assuming they don't become too fatiguing. I don't have the option of trying out either pair before I buy, although i can return them if I must. Sound leakage should be minimal which...

Hi, Currently i am using the Xonar STX as my main amp for my Audio Technica ATH - M50.   Im interested to upgrade it for a nice tube amp for around 300-400 $.   Thanks ; )
