Hi guys, I feel somewhat uneasy to actually post here since i'm quite far from being an audiophile, neither a DJ or Audio Professional. so I don't really know all those technological terms, and probably don't have an analytical ear either. However I am an avid music listener and do appreciate...

Hi guys, Head-Fi having been my bible when it comes to audio, I come to ask for advices. I've been using IEM for years now and finally decided to try full size cans to enjoy my music every days. Here is what I can tell you guys... First, my budget is $300 max. My main sources are my iPad 2...

Alright, haven't posted in quite a while.   I'm looking for some input; I'm searching for "the one" - one pair of cans to replace everything.   Basically what I want it to do:   - Be a K701 with more isolation* and bass (changing nothing else) and/or - Be a KH-K1000 with more...

Another total newbie here asking for advice.  As my name implies, I'm not an audioGuy, so I've spent the last several days reading through the forums and reviews here but just can't find anything that seems to match my specific wants.   I'm looking for a set of closed, over the ear cans that...

I recently got these headphones and I'm curious about the specs... Does anybody have this information??

Hi, I'm looking for a pair of over the ear headphones for about $150, $175 if they are REALLY nice.  I've been looking at the Bose AE2s but I'm not completely sold on them.  I want ones the are comfy, have great sound quality, and are durable.  Portability isn't a big issue, I'd like ones that...

First of all, I rarely come to head-fi, so I am relatively new around here. Head fi has also helped me donate $138 to Audio Technica with ATH CKS77.   Now, I want to buy a pair of good headphones for mids.   I have narrowed down to these choices. Which one is best for mids and treble...

Yeah I know. Bose sucks. No highs, no lows...that's Bose! (or however that stupid joke goes).    Anyway, I've owned Bose headphones in the past. Used to have the OE (they are terrible...ok sound but the bass is horrifyingly overwhelming). I also used to have the original AE's.    I've...

Hey guys. I'm looking to buy my first pair of high quality headphones. I will be using them with an ipod classic. I listen to classical music, so I don't need a ton of bass, and I also listen to long lectures and sometimes movies, so comfort is one of the most important things to me. I prefer...

Hello. I am new here, and would like your recommendations.   As I've been around since BBS's in the 1980's, I will try my best to provide information and parameters so that I don't sound (no pun intended) completely like a newbie.   I listen in a noisy environment. Also, active noise...

I have never owned expensive headphones, the highest I've gone till date is around $40 I spent on Klipsch Image S2 (great purchase!) and the last headphones I was using were Senn HD202, which gave up recently after serving me for around 3-4years.   HD202 sounded good but I am looking for a...

Hi everyone, before I start, I'd like to mention that I ramble. A lot. If you can't tell already. Also, I have a ton of questions... so this might be a lot of reading.   So, after a few days/weeks of researching for a good pair of headphones under $200, I found the ATH M50s. I've pretty much...

Hi,   After looking for a decent headphone I bought the Bose AE2. Yes, Bose, now ****. I'm happy about the headphone. I doubted between the B&W P5, the Bose and the Shure 840. The Shure was to big for walking around campus, the P5 didn't sounded wow for that price and the Bose sounded oké...

I love my bose tri-ports, but alas, they're not longer being sold and its replacement (AE2) isn't holding up to its legacy of great sound quality. One pair is broken and the other isn't aging well.   I'm in the market for headphones ~$150. I'm a software engineer and may go 12 hours straight...

Hi, its my first time here, really looking for some recommendations about Sennheiser PXC 360 and Bose AE2. Im my country these 2 headphones are in the same price range, and for me the comfort of wearing it (atleast when i tried the test units) is great, perfectly covering my whole ear, which i...

Right. I have narrowed my choices down to these, i think.   audio technica ath t300 bose AE2 denon ahd1100 creative aurana live sony mdr-v6 sony zx700 shure srh440 / 240   Of these, i have personally tried on the Bose AE2 and love its comfort. I'm trying to keep from buying the...

Im curious to see if anyone has had extensive time with both of these headphones. I want something super comfortable to wear for long periods of time and to listen from my laptop(no amp) and occasionally from my phone(Evo 3D, unamped).   I wouldnt even consider the Bose since they have such...

Does anyone know if the JVC HAS700 is about the same size and weight of the Bose AE2?  I also want to know if the earcup size is the same.  I am not interested in getting the Bose AE2 but I do find them very comfortable and just from looking at pictures alone the HAS700 looks almost like clone...

Hi all,   After a good 5-year run with my Bose QuietComfort2 headphones, an x-mas gift, they seem to have finally died for good. Nothing happens when I try to turn the power on on the side, and they were pretty beat up already (one side held together with electrical tape). I am thinking now...

Deciding whether to get these or Bose AE2's. Im aware that there is a lot of hatred for bose on head fi but the thing that really appeals for me is there comfort. Opinions on Klipsch Image One or Bose? Thanks in advance for the help :)

Hi, I have the Bose ae right now and am wanting to return them for the oe. I have had the ae for a while and love them but they are a bit fragile. I love the amount of bass in the headphones, which is why I love bose. Should I get the oe instead? Do they sound better?, are they less fragile? I...

Hi, I am looking for really comfortable headphones with similar(or even better hopefully) comfort than Bose AE2 but cheaper.  I am new to this and have no plans to get the Bose but am using them as an example because they at least seemed to me quite comfortable and I could see having them on...

Hi I'm new to the forum been reading here for a while.   Ok I bought a pair of Bose AE2 Two weeks ago at my local target and im not liking them at all, for me everything is about the bass but good Mids and Highs too. I was reading in other forums on how people say that there are cheaper...

Hello there   I've been listening to music on my Sony NWZ-X-1060 for about 4-5 years now (almost every day) and it's been the most pleasant auditory experience I've ever had. Unfortunately, the HOLD switch, which I've probably been switching for many thousand times, is broken. Anyways, the...

Quick! Fellow head-fi'ers, help me bring my sister over to the dark side! She called me just earlier today regarding a pair of Bose AE2's which she heard from a friend and now wants her own pair. She listens to mainly hard rock, so the first thing people will scream here are Grados! The search...
