Cans I own: Audio Technica ATH M50WH - Good airplane headphones Superlux HD681 - Unbelievable for the price AKG K701 - Comfort, Sounstage, Sounds like everything is in the room with you. Bass is super lame.  Also, the best looking headphones ever made IMO. Shure SRH-440 - Horrible pieces...

So up until now, I've jumped from cheap headphones to cheap earbuds. I currently have the Sennheiser MX580 earbuds. I'm looking to get a $100-150 pair of headphones for home use. So I was wondering what everyone suggests for that price range. Initially I heard great things about the ATH-AD700...

looking for cheap entrylevel hifi headphones. was thinking about getting unltrasone or audio technica ad700 i mostly listen to edm.   I live in canada and can get ath  ad700 for 100$ or Ultrasone hfi580 for 150$. I heard the ad700 has low bass i also think im a bit of a basshead but...

Salutations! I would like to say that I've been looking into headphones for about two weeks now. I understand what the peripherals are and do (DAC, ADC, AMP, etc). I will understand what you say when you talk about treble, mid-high, highs, low-mid, sub-bass, soundstage, etc. (Having done...

I recently purchased sony zx700s with head-fi's great advice. I'm building a rig and i need help on picking which sound card to get.   I probably won't be using this with speakers, since there are other people in my house. But if you guys happen to know about any cheap 2.1/5.1 or even 7.1...

I'm brand new to the headphone world, and I want something with better quality than my two year old skullcandys. I'm looking for headphones that look fairly good (able to wear out in public) for around $100 - $150   I mainly listen to rock/rap/house   Any suggestions/advice is greatly...

I got a AD700 for open headphones and they fit pretty well. slightly big even for me which is really weird to find but I want to supplement it with a closed back headphones.  I will mainly be using it for movies and music.  Thanks!

Hi all,   I have a Creative X-Fi Soundblaster XtremeGamer sound card.  I used to have HD-555's that I used with them.  Awhile back, my HD-555s broke, so I bought a Logitech G35 headset.  Well, I want to get back to headphones, so I am looking for a recommendation for a pair that won't cost...

I currently own the DT770 pro headphones. I was wanting to order a pair of open-backed headphones like the Superlux 668b or Takstar Hi2050. Would those headphones provide a different enough sound to be worthwhile? Or should I just stick with the DT770?

Last year I bought a pair of DT700 pros (80ohms) and I do really enjoy them. I am looking at getting another pair but I can't decide between the HD 598s, AKG K601, or the ad700s. I will be using them for xbox gameplay and music on my computer/phone. I don't have an amp right now just a DAC for...

Pretty straight forward, I have the AD700 now and use them at home on my PC for a combination of listening to music and watching movies/TV shows.  I like that they're open, comfortable and pretty good for a lot of the stuff I listen to with clean instrumentals and female vocals.  Eventually I...

Alright, hello, I'm new here, and I've come across head-fi throughout my constant search for the perfect audio equipment and now I have nowhere else to turn so I was hoping you guys could help me.   I have big ears   Every over-ear headset I've ever owned (Turtle Beach, XB500, and now...

2016-02-27 edit:  These have been replaced for the most part by a new model called the V2, which appears similar externally, with some internal tweaks.  The driver size has gone down from 50 to 42mm, it is however made of a different material.  The pads are now velour and are deeper.   I did...

Do such headphones exist? I'm a pc gamer but also listen to techno, jazz, classical. Looking for something that has the nice soundstage for games but also has great bass. I just picked up the superlux 668b and so far really liking them. Haven't tested in gaming yet but music is a big step up...

The recent 50+ flagship review inspired me to finally check out the DT 880, in the past I owned a pair of HD 650's and liked them but ended up having to part with them, I for the time being needed something decent to tide me over so I ended up getting some ATH-AD700's, I absolutely hate the...

I'm new here so please go easy on me.  I know these headphones have some opposition when I was looking for user reviews of these headphones, but I need a good reliable set of headphones for about $100-$150.  I currently have a Xonar DS, but I'm selling it to a friend 'cause he needs the high...

I'm sorry 'cause I made another thread earlier wondering about the AD700, but I've made a decision that I feel warrants a new thread of entirely different price range.  To summarize, I spend a lot of my time gaming, but I also really like music and listening to commentaries.  I'm using a Xonar...

Hey, head-fi, I'm in need of a new pair of headphones. I've been lurking for quite a while now, and now I think it's time I get a new pair of headphones, but I'm not quite sure what pair I should purchase. I currently have the Sennheiser 419s, but I'm not very fond of them. I enjoy bigger-sized...

Hey peeps,   I've been using a Logitech G35 for almost a year now, and I couldn't be more dissatisfied with it. It produced extremely low quality sound (which I think was on purpose) when surround sound was set to off, and it was also the most uncomfortable thing I had ever used. The metal...

I currently have the Sony Wireless Stereo Headset and want to upgrade. I pretty much game only on Call of Duty, so i am looking for something that can deliver great 3D Soundstage. I want a new headset mostly to hear where an enemy is coming from; being able to locate gun fire and footsteps. I...

Hi guys!!!   Since i bought my config I "fall in love" to chase the best sound for gaming. I have an Asus DX and Audio Technica ATH AD700 and I wanna improve my audio statio for gaming and few music usage.   First I pretend to maintain my sound card and buy a new fiio e9. maybe i can...

Hello this is my first time posting here on Head-Fi. I have been reading threads on here for weeks now and I finally decided to just join since I'm here so often anyways. I need some advice from you guys out there. I am searching for my fist pair of audiophile level headphones. Previously I have...

Hy again guys, I was here for good comfortable headphones for gaming, and rock music, you recommended for me to take the ATH-AD700 / ATH-A700X. I live in Israel and the shipping for those (from amazon) is not possible.. so if I wanna buy it I need a company to buy it and then send it to me...

Hello, first off I would like to say that I am nowhere near an expert on headphones/audio, so please keep that in mind.    Anyways, I have a pair of Audio Technica AD700s that I loved dearly.  However, one day the left speaker simply stopped working for no apparent reason.  I finished using...
