    So what IEM's will sound something like ATH-AD900's ?

    I have only recently started using headphones, purchased some ATH-AD900's and love the new detail I am discovering in music.   They are connected to my computer through a USB Musiland MD10 DAC I had lying around, mainly FLAC and APE,   Now looking to get some IEM's for use with iPod...

    IEM closest to ATH-AD900 sound?

    I'm in love with my ath-ad900s (especially when I boost the bass up about 5-6db). They are so clear. The midrange is slightly forward (perfect) and not too forward or recessed. The treble is perfect as well.   I know that NO IEM can match them as far as soundstage. With that said, what are...

    AD900 or Q701?

    I've been searching around for a pair of suitable full-sized open circumaural headphones to accompany my GR07s for awhile now, and I think I've narrowed my search down to two: The AD900 and the Q701. Is there anyone who has heard both and can give me a good comparison/suggestion? I'll copy/paste...

    The best bang for buck headphones? HD598 + E11 vs Ad900 + E6

    Hey guys,  I just joined this forums after reading many of your views on HD598 and Ad700/AD900's   Now my budget is around 250 for everything I need. If worst comes to worst I will just buy the AD700 if I need to spend less money. Now the HD598's are cheaper, so I can be a E11 or the...

    AD900 or AKG 242HD or HE300

    Which will be more suited to acoustic, piano, vox, softrock/indie and a bit of jazz and blues. From my research the AKG will prob be more to my liking as far as sound sig goes. It does seem to be more accurate and natural of the two, with a more realistic stage. The Ad900 on the other hand big...

    Audio Technica ATH-AD900 compared to AKG Q701/K701

    I am looking for desktop headphones that have a different sound than my Sennheiser 650s and narrowed my search to the above. My reading leads me to conclude that they are similar, but I have not listened with either. Their street price is very similar and I am a fan of open phones for home use...

    Return the AD900... Get the Q701?

    So i finally pulled the trigger on the Audio Technica AD900 and got them early this week.  So far they have about 100 hours of burn in.  They have significantly improved, noticeably less brittle sounding, while the bass has more punch compared to out of the box.  I also played around with the...

    AD900 or AD700 to go with Creative X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro USB soundcard

    Hi, new to Head-Fi here. I'm getting my first "serious" cans pretty soon. Right now it's a toss-up between the AD700 and the AD900. I know that the Creative X-Fi external USB would be enough to drive the AD700, since it doesn't require a lot of power. But what about the AD900?  I will have to...

    AD900 cable "hiss"

    I recently noticed when I'm listening to my AD900 and I coil the cable up it makes a noticeable hissing noise. When I stretch the cable back out or move it around the hiss goes away. It doesn't seem to be the connection to the headphones and it isnt the amp since it makes the same noise out of...

    Upgrading from AD700: AD900, HD598, or AKG 702?

    I currently have the AD700 - which I have really enjoyed.  However, I've been looking to upgrade a bit.  I originally got the AD700 because of it's highly extolled virtue in gaming (positional sound) coupled with it's relatively high quality compared to most "gaming" headsets.  To those ends, it...

    I've heard good stuff about the Fiio E10 and I'm wondering how well does this amp pair up with either the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 or the Audio-Technica ATH-AD900?   The DAC will be used with both my desktop and my laptop (MacBook Air 13.3"). I still haven't really decided on which headphones...

    Best open air headphones for Acoustic Music

    Hi all,   I have approx $300 to spend.  Besides the Sennheiser 650 what is the best headphone for Acoustic music.  Really looking for airy and wide soundstage.  Comfort is an issue as well as I will wear them for hours on end at work. Used is ok too.   Thanks!
