I've ordered the Audio Technica ATH-M30 but I'm going to return it. It's doesn't meet my expectation and I have the feeling it doesn't even really sounds better than my old Sennheiser HD433. Currently I'm looking at something like the Sennheiser HD 215, HD 515 or a similar headphone, I need a...

The Sony V6 around $40 are they the best budget headphones. Looking for something in the $40 range or less. Thanks everyone and sorry if im asking in the wrong place

I am considering spending some money on some amplification on my AKG K518 headphones. I currently have a Denon Mini Hi Fi - UD - M30.  This is connected to my Dell Vostro Laptop 1500 via the 3.5mm headphone jack, so I don't think the quality is that good and there is alot of static listening...

Build Quality is key here. I did a recable for this same friend and he managed to hook his knee (???) into the y-split and completely rip the wires out of the cups and snap the headband all in one go. There are a lot of great budget-fi options out there for under $50 but I need to know which...

Hi from Argentina. ^^   My options:   1- Senn HD 202  2- Senn HD 218 3- Senn PX 200 II 4- ATH M-30 5- AKG K-512     I need cans for the PC, these are the cans I can get with my budget. There´s no place where i can try the cans, so the only option is read reviews, opinions...

In a desperate search for some cheap sealed cans that wouldn't make me scratch at my ears in pain, I came across a pair of of ATH-M30s at Guitar Center, on sale for $49. What the hell, I thought ... I plopped down the half-benjamin, and went merrily on my way. Out of box impressions: These...

Sorry for making a 2nd thread about a recommendation, but I really need help. I've just purchased a Grado SR-60i (haven't received it as yet). I bought this due to the recommendations for metal, easy to drive, etc. However, I originally wanted a closed-style pair of headphones (I live with...

Hey everyone. I've been looking for a new pair of headphones since my old ones broke. I'd appreciate any recommendations in the 40-60 dollar range. My budget is pretty tight so I probably won't go over it unless it's a really good deal.   Anyway, I'll be using it from mostly my laptop...

Hi, I am looking for headphones for drumming (acoustic set with a band). Also needs to look good. I was thinking first ATH-M30, but they are quite big , so not so good looking maybe. Still thinking though...   But I found their new product  ATH-T300. That is small and looks ok. Has anybody...

alright everyone i finally got the chance to hear these with an external sound card with a 1/4 inch adapter. the sound card was an m audio m box for pro tools for mac.   Pros: build quality, detachable cable, good bass and mid range, Cons: terrible highs, sibilant, design, cords jutting...

Hey guys I currently have a pair of HD 201 headphones and I love them, but I hav been noticing some crackling noises from my left can, so I'm due for a replacement, these things are about 5 years old. Anyway I have a budget of $40 maaaybe $50. It's still tough to drop $40-$50 on a pair of...

Hi all,   I currently own a Klipsch Custom 3 and I've just taken up DJing. I've read on some DJ blogs that its better for your hearing to use IEMs for monitoring, but trouble is, I still can;t get used to them. I still prefer headphones to IEM for DJing.   So I'm looking for some...

and I couldn't properly use their SRH840 headphones because the music volume was too loud at their display stand. -.-   However, I did get to try out the Shure SRH750DJ headphones with my own source (iPod Touch) since they didn't have it on display, and they sounded pretty darn amazing...

Hello,   I'm looking at buying some full-sized headphones. I have had several pairs that I have fit issues with (Koss UR-55 and M30) and don't want to have to keep going through the return process. I would like to demo some full-sized headphones before I buy them and was wondering if there...

So I'm going to be making my first purchase. I can spend ~$80 and I will be listening through my MacBook Pro and my iPod. I need them to be closed because since I'm in college, I'm at the library a lot. I know the Sennheisers are pretty good for beginners. Does anyone have any advice on where to...

So I've been using a cheap, almost throw-away pair of earbuds for a while now, but now it's close to my birthday and my dad is willing to get me new headphones.   I'm used to the Senn PMX-60. I loved them until they broke many times ending with a yanked out cable. The other issue was noise...

Hi Anyone had a chance to compare the audio technica ATH-M30 vs ATH-M50?   Are the M50's REALLY worth 2.5X the price??   I can get the M30's for$80, but the M50's will set me back $190+tax...  

On amazon i see that... m50's- $150 pro 700sv-$105 m40fs- $65 m30's- $40   These all seem like very good deals and they all have very good reviews. I'm looking for bass heavy headphones that will sound good with hip hop. Everyone says m50's are the way to go but the other headphones...

Could someone recommend a pair of Portable, foldable, closed on ear headphones for under $50? For me, the most important features are  sound quality, comfort, and noise isolation in that order.   I've been looking at these heapdhones. Audio Technica ATH-SJ11  MEElectronics HT-21  ...

Hi everyone, I'm finding the highs very harsh on all of my headphones and I'm looking for some closed cans with recessed upper mids and highs (from 6/7khz to 14khz; I can't hear above it). Some kind of non-audiophile cans maybe. Budjet: 150$ max. Something relaxing and forgiving on...

  Hello!   First post here! Theres really no pleasure in buying expensive headphones but listening to a great [expensive] pair of cans is priceless pleasure… That I tell people who question me. Hehehe… I recently bought a Grado SR80i to replace my Audio Tech ATHM30, the grado made the...

I've read rumors that the ATH-M30, Pearstone Velour, and Sony V6 pads will fit the Koss DJ 100. Do they? If so, how comfy are they compared to the stock/default pads? I'm using the DJ 100 right now as I'm typing this and my ears are hurting more and more by the minute. It becomes unbearable...

Hi everyone!   First I'd like to say that I'm a huge fan, I've been reading posts on this site for months now when researching the past headphones that I have bought. So thanks for all you guys do!   Basically, I am a blossoming audiophile! Last September I bought Audio-Technica ATH-A700...

Which ones would you choose?  They both seem very good to me and the only difference is the price by A LOT!!   What would you choose and why?  

I just got a pair of ATH-M30s and i love them so far. I was browsing the forums and saw people recommending the FiiO E5 as a decent, inexpensive amp.   Ive been searching Amazon and reading reviews and now I want to get one. I suppose I don't have a real "need" for an amp, but I kinda want...
