Hey everyone, I'm just after a bit of advice on my next portable amp. I'm wanting to upgrade from my HPA Labs CMoy to a quality (established brand) amp. I'll be playing from my Sennheiser HD555's and Audio-Technica ES7's, both running on a 7G iPod Classic majority of the time. At this stage the...

Hey guys I wondering if anyone have tried or seen a thread about changing the es7 pads to the HD25 pads.  If so can you show me where? I look everywhere and can't find anything about them and I'm starting to think I'm imagining things, this might be because I read it or think I read it before I...

I am having trouble deciding which headphones to get. I had the M50's but i returned them due to their bulkiness and making my ears feel hot and uncomfortable after a short time. I wasnt amazed with their sound quality but I didn't have an amp. I am going to get an amp probably, but I was just...

Hey everyone, I am after a high-end pair of portable headphones and have narrowed it down to the Audio-Technica ATH-ES7 or the Phiaton MS400. I would really appreciate any feedback as to which headphone would be better (as a whole), and the pros and cons of each. I should also add I'll be...

I ordered a set of the Audio Technica ATH-M50's a few months ago and am completely in love with them. My gf has since started to really like full sized headphones too and I figured I'd get her a set for the coming Christmas.    She likes my M50's sound, isolation, and padding, but her...

Hi guys,    So my ES7s recently broke after some mishaps, and now one of the drivers is blown out. I've contacted Audio-Technica and they claim a repair will likely be in the range of $70 (although that's not a guarantee since I'd have to send them in first so they can actually confirm that...

Hello everyone, I'm currently having some dilemma choosing a portable headphones / in-ear.   I've tested the Sony XB500, XB700 and the ATH M50 so far. I prefer the XB500 to XB700, but there's still too much booming bass for me. The M50 produces a more neutral sound, but I do like to be able...

Looking for: Punchy bass, but not over powering (In-game & music – techno/electro/trance/etc) Nice overall quality everywhere else in music. Awesome spatial awareness for footsteps in-game Able to differentiate sounds Must have a comfortable fabric around the ears (wearing glasses) Must be...

Hey guys....I'm just getting into true audiophile territory lately and am thinking about just trying to sample all the different sorts of headphones out there at once!     I've got a little dot MKIII on order and being made right now (expect it in about two weeks; so I've got some time to...

So some of you recommended me the es7's. Well did some research and found these AKG's though I wanted to know how they compare with their Highs, mids, and lows. And if the Es-7's are the superior, then where can I get some legitimate ones in the $110 range? Only reason I'm holding back on the...

About a month ago I lost almost all my gear in a fire.  Everything I've ever recommended or said I owned was lost outside of the a few things.  The only survivors were my Hd485 and my Hippo Epic Sparkles and my sansa fuze.  Nothing else made it.  I also lost my couch and my Ps3 and netbook...

    So around a year ago, I came to these forums looking for a good set of portable headphones. the ATH-ES7's were recommended to me and I am very happy with their sound quality. One of the issues I have with the headphones is that they are uncomfortable to wear for even short periods of...

I'm looking to buy myself a set of 'phones I can use at home and on the go. What I'd like is good to great sound quality, good looks, and a decent price. Here are a few ideas I've come up with: Grado SR60i's Panasonic RP-HTX7's Audio-Technica SQ5's Creative Aurvana Live!'s...

Alright ladies! After a long journey I ended up with the K701 as my reference cans with the HD650 being passed on. Now I need recommendation for a pair of fun headphones with crazy bass and energy that make me want to shake my head until it falls off  for some electronic genres like pop...

Well, about 7 months ago I picked up a pair of these after reading reviews from this site. I love 'em! Only problem is that now one of the wires leading to the earpieces is broken. So, now I need to find a different pair of headphones because these are sold out at the place that I usually buy...

I was looking at some threads and not a lot of people seemed to have them at the time, so I figured I'd make an update thread of sorts :P   I'm looking to upgrade back to portable sized headphones from my SE530s... Looking for a bigger soundstage, with a smoother, overall better sound(...

I'm looking to upgrade from my JVC HARX700's. I listen to mostly Metalcore, Death metal and a little rap, but would like them to sound better with metal more so than rap. My budget is around $100 with a little bit of lea-way if the headphones are worth it. These would need to be a lot more...

Found the Able Planets at an amazing price of $59.99. They are active noise cancelling. Was wondering if anyone had any experience with them? If they arent good can you give me any alternatives? Comfort + Isolation along with decent sound is important.   Here is a link to the sale for the...

First of all, I've been browsing this forum for a while. Found a lot of useful information. I'm looking for an entry level headphone, and narrow my choice down to ES7 and SQ5 because of their look and their performance/price ratio based on what I read. I heard many great things about the ES7...

That's about $117.   http://www.iheadphones.co.uk/headphones/22786/Audio+Technica+ATH-ES7+BK+Portable+Headphones.htm   Trustworthy or not?

Hi, this is also my first post here. My current cans are ATH ES7s and I also own PK3s. I was looking to get a pair of IEMs for travel. I'm not interested in a very analytical IEM and bass is not a major concern. I live in Aus and I can get UE superfi.4 for $85 atm. I'm not sure how these...

Thanks

Hey guys, just a quick question. Today I came across a nice picture of ATH-ES7 with very nice cable (mod?) here is the picture I wonder if this a cable mod? Because I recall standard ES7 Cable isn't like this. If so, can anyone enlighthen me where to get such cable? I use my...

Newb here. Hello. I'm a New Yorker. I commute among three boroughs everyday and need a good set of headphones for my rides. I'm looking for a portable pair of closed circumaural headphones with good sound quality. Isolation is pretty important as the NYC subway is very, very, loud. I'd be...

I have a quick question. I'm currently using a pair of audio technica ES7's with an iPod Touch 4, and I love how they sound. Would using a Fiio E5 make a difference at all? I've read several reviews but found no definite answer, and was curious if someone had done this with a similar setup...
