I've had my sr325is for a few months now (my first real pair of headphones) and I was very impressed from the moment I put them on, and even now while I'm typing. The quality and clarity is a large step-up from all of the other $30 in-ears and a pair or sr60i's I'd had previously, but the...

K here is what I got   Shure SRH-840 - little grainy and forward (shouty?) in the mids but other wise great (how I like) in the mids and treble, but no lowend.   DT-770 Pro 80ohm - Use to like them but there really muffled and laid back kind of, not like Sennheiser, they have good speed...

Hello all, I was wondering if you guys would help me out with this dilemma. I want to upgrade from my DT 770 Pro's, They are great. but I was looking for something with some more clarity. I was looking at the Q 701, and possibly an HD 580, but I don't have any experience with either. I will be...

Hi there.   Okay i used to be quite in the loop with headphones but a bad experience with some AKG K518's put me off buying new headphones and just sticking with my PX100's for awhile.   I must of had my PX100's for over 5 years now and they've been a great set of phones for me, but i...

So I suppose I've got a case of upgrade-itis. After starting out with a couple of pairs of low end Senns I moved up to a pair of ATH-M50's. Overall I was pretty pleased with them. I liked that they were closed back for traveling. Then I realized I didn't want to carry these things around so I...

Hey everybody,    Recently I bought myself a pair of DT 770 PRO 80's. After unboxing them, I plugged them into my Harmon/Kardon 630 receiver that's connected to my computer, put the volume up about 45%, adjusted the bass....and that's were my problem started. They sounded not so great...

I currently own Panasonic HTF600's with Beyerdynamic valor pads and I feel it's time for an upgrade. I currently have them plugged into a Mbox 2 music interface and I don't think they are bad for the price but I get an annoying rattle buzzing sound with certain sounds especially bass. When I'm...

My ears are stretched to 7/8", so wearing some OE headphones can be pretty uncomfortable. I just got my Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro's in the mail yesterday and even those were uncomfortable!! So....     There is still very good isolation, it hasnt changed at all from what I can tell. My plug...

My only background into the audiophile world are my Klipsch S4s and my dad's discontinued AKG's and Sennheiser 595s. First off, I truly recommend from the bottom of my heart investing in a pair of Klipsch S4's; they have lasted me years and come with an incredible warranty. If anything is wrong...

So, I just got my DT770's in the mail today. My first impression is that they're built very well and very light. I have stretched ear lobes and these are still very comfortable on my ears, they do sit on my ear rings though. The sound is much better in every way when comparing to my Kicker...

New wife just gave me a pair of Beats Mixrs for wedding present. Nice thought and I love her but I want something more comfortable and that sounds better. High end kills me on some recordings and they can get painful after a little while.   I travel a lot so looking for something...

So I had some Denon 5000's a couple years ago. Hard times forced me to sell them and my Fiio E11. Downgraded to some Grado 80i's, which I thought would be fine. Hated them. didn't seem like anything to me. But now come christmas, I want to get a good set-up going again. This is where I need...

I currently own the DT770 pro headphones. I was wanting to order a pair of open-backed headphones like the Superlux 668b or Takstar Hi2050. Would those headphones provide a different enough sound to be worthwhile? Or should I just stick with the DT770?

I am a little new to audiophile gear and this will be my first purchase beyond my sennheiser 201's. As the title says I am looking for a headphone \ dac combo to use with my laptop (and maybe sansa clip to).   My sources : Laptop Sansa Clip Zip   What  I own : Sennheiser 201...

I just wanted to share my opinion about these 5 headphones - all around 75-150 bucks except for the beats. I personally own or tried out all of them and I have to say by far the best bass headphones out of all of them are the Vmoda crossfade lps. The bass is crisp and undistorted unlike what I...

Hello, I am new to head-fi and I currently own a pair of Audio Technica ATH-PRO5V and I would like to upgrade to something else. A common issue on this headphones was the actual build quality of the headphones. The cups are ripped and the headphones are uncomfortable. The sound quality is...

Hi Head-Fi, I'm rather new to the audiophile side of the web and after much browsing and consolidating, i decided to buy the Beyerdynamic DT770 80 ohm. So my question is "what is the best headphone amp for the DT770" If required i listen to mainly RnB, Hip Hop, Pop, Country, Soft Rock, Pop...

Hello, I've been needing to get an amp for my headphones. I will be primarily using them with my asus transformer tf700 and ipod gen7 nano. With the occasional use with my laptop and ps3 when i get back to the states. I was wondering which one would work best. I understand he e11 is better for...

Hey Everybody,   I'm hoping you can help me in deciding which pair of headphones would be most suitable for my musical library and needs. Below are the details:     Will be used about 80% of the time to listen to metal: Agalloch, Dark Empire, Primal Fear, Buckethead (not sure if he...

I'm sure most of you have seen a thread like this multiple times, and I have looked at them too. However, they don't answer the question for me. Currently I have Sony MDR-XB400 and a FiiO E6 amp that I went with until I could upgrade to a better pair of headphones, and it is time to do that. The...

Hello everyone, my first post here. Have been a reader of the forum for some time but now I feelt the need too make a post  What I'm using is a AudioEngine D1 with a pair of Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 80 Ohms.   I've had some problems with my Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 80 Ohms. I got them like 2...

Last year I bought a pair of DT700 pros (80ohms) and I do really enjoy them. I am looking at getting another pair but I can't decide between the HD 598s, AKG K601, or the ad700s. I will be using them for xbox gameplay and music on my computer/phone. I don't have an amp right now just a DAC for...

  Hi, I'm new here on Head-fi and am interested in buying some good headphones for while I'm working. I work in a factory generally dont have to walk far from my station for 2-3 hours at a time. I want something that doesn't require an amp but I may be interested in using one in the future. I...

I'm looking for excellent "audiophile" grade headphones for under $200 (USD). These headphones need to be able to play a variety of music and have that all around effect. I really like to "feel" the music if you know what i mean. (Especially when it comes to some bass)   Music i listen to...

Hi everyone, first post for me on this very nice forum (I hope I don't break any rules by posting here).   The title says it: I'm searching a headphone (maybe headset but  I don't care too much about the mic) for essentially playing games (no competition) and watching movies, and the main...
