The plastic that connects the cups to the headband are broken in one side. Is there any way, that I can purchase a new headband for those phones? Anyone knows a site, where I can buy spare parts to audio techica headphones? Help me here, someone. I was so happy with them.

Sup guys,       So I just got a cushy new job with a desk and an office, I'm in there 9-5 and the boss doesn't mind headphone use. My Triple.fi 10's won't cut it because I need to be able to hear people knocking, the walls are too thin for speakers or even open cans. I'm looking for something...

I spied these on the ALO site and saw these neat looking headphones. I looked on this site and found a few bits and clips of what i assume are reviews? "I can't believe this is SQ5" "I know stock SQ5, this is sharper and bass is not boomy" "Vocal is so sweet I like this better than ESW9"...

anyone know if they're better than the old solos? Are they still gonna break? Any reviews out there? If not then can someone do one? I know the red ones have been out for a while, but I'm planning to get me the whities. Wondering if Monster made any changes to em. 

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...

Hello fellow head-fi`ers,   I am a Dutch (sorry for my English language) audio enthusiast who travels a lot by public transport. Now a couple of months ago I bought myself an iPod classic 160gb and since then I have been looking for a pair of portable headphones which meets the following...

I was pretty much settled on getting the ESW9A's but found a decent deal on the HFI-2200's and now I'm kind of torn. I have HFI-780's and absolutely love them. The fact that I enjoy those a lot gives me hope that I'd really like the 2200. The 2200 would also have the benefit of being an open set...

Got my ESW9 in the mail since I figured it would be a good match to try for the types of music I like. I listen to a lot of Japanese music, female vocals and Radiohead. I'm also a huge fan of Pearl Jam.   Out of the box I was surprised at how small they were. Pictures just don't really show...

probably take a few days. do not choose plastic or rubber surfaces for leather padded phones, they may stick! these coach cd/dvd cases were ideal. paul

First off: that's "travel" not "travelling". Due to work I'm away from home for 1-2 month periods, but once I'm there, I usually stay put. I don't intend to use them on the plane.   I am shopping for a new pair of headphones to use off my laptop or my iPod. I'm currently using an ATH-ESW9...

Hi Headfiers,any know if exist any full-size cans with the same sound signature like ESW9A? Maybe the W1000? or W1000X. Thx in advance.

Same as most, I'm a long-time browser, first time poster on the forums. I could really use anyones advice. I'm looking to break open the piggy bank and get myself a set of headphones I can be proud of now and despair at later when they die. Help me, Head-fiers, please.   I'm looking for...

Hi guys,   I am in need of a new portable headphone for the summertime and my vacation.   I will be using it without an amp out of my iTouch and Macbook Pro. My ety ER4P will still be my main portable monitors. But I want a pair to sit outside with and enjoy the sun.   I can get the...

I am wondering how high end Denons or Audio Technicas sound.  I have owned, SRH840, SR801, DT880(600ohms) and k701 and sold them.  I don't like the high frequencies, especially the sibilance.   I have kept my HD650 because they sound very detailed without the sibilance.  I'm wondering if I enjoy...

  I believe my search is down to the Audio-Technica A900s and ESW9As.   Will mostly be using with ipod, unamped. Usually high bit rate mp3s(320kbps most of the time). Mostly rock music and live music but definitely some of everything. For portable use like airplane/car rides but not...

We here often throw around words like warm and cold, so i'm wondering if when shopping for an amp, do you pair a warm amp with a warm set of headphones, or do you do warm/cold?  common sense is telling me to get opposites because then it brings out the side of your phones that normally don't get...

I bought a ATH ESW9 last week from adorama, the shipping was amazing, it only takes 1 day.   I was so happy with it in the beginning, but something just felt wrong...   the quality of the headphone just not what i expect from a pretty expensive portable headphones.     The...

Sorry to make yet another $200 headphone thread. I searched around and none of the other thread creators were really looking for the same things as I am. I'm looking for:   - Comfy and portable (doesn't have to fold, but that would be nice)   - Lush, clear, not harsh. Easy on the ears...

So there are a couple of comparisons in the t50p thread to the esw10. From my research the general opinion is that the esw10 is significantly superior to the esw9. does this mean the t50p beats the esw9? does anybody who has experience with both care to comment? Thanks!

I will be using these mostly on the go, unamped out of my iphone 3gs (i am entertaining a portable amp as an upgrade). I will also use them at home out of a mixer or an onkyo stereo receiver from a computer. I don't mind the bulk of the dt880 and i find them really comfy so I would only consider...

      Hey guys, it's been a while since my last visit here and this place's changed ALOT. Ysee, I figured I found the perfect phones for me, and they happened to be the original ATH-ESW9s and I loved them to bits.       Unfortunately, that's what it sounds like right now: in pieces on the left...

I was planning on getting a pair of esw9's but i realized i dont need complete isolation and definitely dont mind wearing around full sized cans. Does anybody who has had both think the esw9 is of the same caliber SQ-wise as say, the beyer dt880 32ohm?? Thanks!

I've been searching for hours and hours for days and days trying to find the right portable headphone for me and I've had no success. Soo that's why I've come to you guys  Well basically, I'm looking for a pair of portable headphones that can fulfil most, if not all of my criteria as follows...

Between ESW9/ T50p ( may be ES10 is i can get more money)   which one is a better all round headphones? which one is more comfortable?   I don't have a portable amp right now, but i may get a Ibasso D12 in the future... which one should i get ?

Ladies and gentlemen, i am looking for a pair of headphones. The riddle is what headphone fits all of the criteria listed below!     Can be worn around town. They don't need to look good, they need to stay on without putting me in a vice grip   Over ear is the desired style, this is...
