Hey everyone, I'm new to the forums. However, I have been using these forums for the last week or so as an incredible resource in researching headphones. You guys are great and really know your stuff it's as simple as that. I don't consider myself to be an audiophile since I don't really know...

I've owned the HD414 for a long time, and really that's all I've been using for quite a long time. I find that the sound compared to the AD700 is actually quite comparable, perhaps even better for most types of music. I do find that the AD700 has a airier tone, and sharper vocals. But the HD414...

So right now I have some money to spend on some headphones and I have narrowed it down to either the AD700 or the M50s. I will be playing a lot of games with it as well as listen to some music. The kind of music I listen to is rock, metal, alternative, electronic, etc. I need something that can...

Hi. I have a pair of ath-ad700 with broken drivers. Would the drivers from ath-ad900 fit? They are the same size, but the ad700 drivers are angled and the ad900 drivers are flat.   The A900 have angled drivers tho.   Or is there any other drivers i should try to get? AD2000?  ...

I recently obtained some AKG q701's, and while the sound quality in and of itself is far better then my AD 700's, i really miss the AD700's natural sounding center image. The imaging always sounded a lot closer to speakers than any other headphones i've tried due to the way the drivers were...

I bought some AD700 from reading all the amazing reviews! mostly from here!!, they sounded nice but they just didnt fit right! I think you need a large head with these, bass was lacking as well.   So I am now looking to replace them for something else for 100% gaming that has some nice bass...

I just got my pair of AD700s coming from my Sennheiser PC 350s (which after a few years got this weird static aspect to them) I was just wondering how to properly set for optimal sound gaming since I'm a total sound noob but I've always been a headset user and would really like to get my sound...

When I think of gaming headphones, I think of Sennheiser open back headphones. I have never heard this type of headphone in person, but here is what I am looking for.   (Note, I do not want a headset, just headphones.)   I only play first person shooting games, such a Battlefield 3...

Hi, I just got these headphones today and they are pretty nice. I read that these headphones can be modded for audio improvement and the first thing I did was remove the pad inside the grill. However I couldn't tell the difference. Could someone tell me the logic behind removing the grill pad?

I'm adding a detachable cable and detachable mic to my ad700s. I still haven't added the mic or mic jack.(ran out of money) But I'll do it in a couple weeks.

Hello, i'm new here. After reading some guides, i've found out about these 3 headphones, but i can't decide which one to buy. Help appreciated.   Samson RH600, 50 euro Grado SR-80i, 66 euro Audio Technica ATH-AD700, 100 euro   I listen to rock/metal. Flac audio. I play Quake Live a...

Hi guys! I'm relatively new with headphones, my current ones being some cheap $10 ovanns which I use for listening to music on my desktop. You may have heard 50 m50 threads but please, hear me out!   For the past month or so I've been doing research on various headphones and these two come...

before i begin, let me just say that ATHD AD700 is a gateway drug. as i actually never intended to get into the headphone audiophile arena. i stumbled on this whole thing in the process of building a high end PC gaming rig that'll give me the best surround sound while using headphone. btw, the...

Hey Y'all, I'm a major newbie and have been looking for some high-ish end headphones for gaming, some music and movies... And everything in the "gaming headset" category is garbage. So I've been doing some reading here and it appears the consensus is that a tape-modded 558 performs nicely for...

Hi, I'm new, though I've been looking around the forums for a couple years now >.> and yeah, my wallet. Yup.   I'm certainly new to the audophilic world, and my first decent pair of headphones has been ruined. I absolutely love my ATH-AD700s; I've only had them for a couple months now, and...

I can understand many say these have a lack in bass response. Some are saying that they sound tinny like cans. I am worried because I am afraid that they are going to have this sharp sound, like a knife jabbing into your eardrums. Like setting the 4k herts on an EQ to high and you get that sharp...

What do you think? Which one is better? I'm mostly listening metal genres (trash death black etc.) and I want to use it with my phone but someday I'll buy sth from cowon. You can give me other suggestions but unfortunately i don't have big budget. And what do you thing about Audio Technica ATHM50?

So long story short is my dog bit through the cable because my kid knocked the headphones on the ground.  Anyways I cut the cable up to where the bite mark is gone but I cant splice them back together well enough.  I've tried getting these things back together with no luck at all.  I've tried...

Hey guys. Need some help.  I am kinda of big headed and I just got a nice pair of Audio Technica AD700 and I love them ....except...for the fact that my ears touch the driver so it's not that super comfy.  Maybe I am bad at searching but i heard there is a mod to make it more comfy and prevent...

Hey guys ,i needed a recomendation for an ad700 upgrade   ive been using ad700 for around 2 months ,but not satisfied with the overall voice reproduction and the the distinction in sound   I listen to a lot of genres like  hip hop,reggae,classical,instrumental,instrumental, with the...

It could be alot better i know that but im more for function over form but hey check it out i like the way it turned out!   Just Attached a Antlion Mod Mic and Painted and sleeved the cable first time doing any of them.            

   I have been on my adventure to find my ideal Gaming setup using headphones.  I have always loved good sound and have a couple 5.1 setups in my home.  Becoming a father has put a very large damper on being able to use my sound systems for gaming and movies at night and I decided I need to get...

Long time lurker here,   I found this forum a few years ago and it got me to purchase my ath-ad700. However, they are starting to become beat up and I thought I would go ahead and get an upgrade. I want to get something that has a similar soundstage but with more base. I generally listen to...

I'm currently using Yuin G2A with my laptop and even though I like the sound, I hate the fact that they are clip-ons, discomfortable and to be honest, I feel that they don't exactly fulfill my expectations. So, I've decided to get something else. It's been weeks now since I started to read...

I got some AD 700's which are very good! I use them on the pc and I use onboard audio card from my motherboard. I was wondering if purchasing a  Creative 70SB073A00000 7.1 Channels 24-bit 96KHz PCI Interface Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGame here's a...
