Hello, I know this is an overly asked question, but i am having trouble figuring out which headphones to buy, so I came here for help. I listen to mainly rock music, some hip-hop, and some alternative. I really like the look of the Bowers&Wilkins P5 and would get them, but they are expensive. Is...

Hi,   I as wondering which in-earphones are the best to buy. Not concerned about price, but concerned about the sound quality and bass. I have both the Bowers & Wilkins Zepellin Air and the Bose SoundDock Portable, and can I say that I am very surprised by the sound quality on both systems...

Hello all, I'm looking for some in-ear headphones suitable for jogging/gym and can block out noise during an airplane ride for under U$200.  I currently own a pair of B&W p5s and I like its sound signature although the midtones are a bit overwhelming and I would like something with accurate...

Hi, I'm looking for a set of portable closed-back headphones, as I travel long distances on public transport relatively frequently and I want to be able to listen to my music without disturbing anyone or being disturbed.

With a long time enjoying 3 headphones of B&W P5, Beyerdynamic T50P and Sennheiser Momentum on-ear, I really want to have a summary and share it. Also, hoping the ones who have experienced them can share your opinions. To start with the topic, I’d like to clarify that I used them only with my...

Hello fellow head-fiers! I've been lurking on this site for some time now and finally decided to join. I'm not entirely new to headphone audio and definitely not new to home audio, however I've never crossed over into the dedicated headphone amp level. This where I need help...I'm wanting to buy...

Hi! As the thread suggests. I've searched for a review on these headphones here for a while. However I didn't come with one that I felt suited all I wanted to know. That's why I wanted to check if someone out there is interested in one. I haven't been much of a reviewer, more of a spectator. I...

Ok, while typing this to my android phone I am listening to them. Actually I'm at Starbucks now. Freshly unboxed. Lets get to the point here. IPod touch 4G album: dream theater: a dramatic turn of events. Ripped from limited edition album @ 320kbps mp3 I have the P5 for for over a year now...

  I have a serious question, and i joined because I'm hoping to become part of the community. I really love the bass of the beats by dr dre pros but there are so many bad reviews about them and its hard to tell if the ones you are buying are fake or not. Im looking for a headphone in the...

When will B&W release over-the-ear headphones and how much will they cost?

Hey hows it going? I'm new to head-fi. I started out with car audio and home audio and am starting to get into head phone audio. I am looking for some suggestions on some closed back cans. I say closed back because I listen to my music around people a lot and I dont want to bother them. That is...

Hello :)   I've been lurking on threads regarding both these models for a few weeks now and I now have the funds in order to purchase one of these two headphones.   A bit about me, I am 18 years of age and will be going to university in a month. Therefore I will be travelling a lot and...

Hi there,   I'm currently rocking the stock iPod headphones (haha) but tried the B&W P5s yesterday and thought they were pretty decent. Obviously, having read around this forum a bit I'm realising that the SQ doesn't quite match the build quality and have been looking for a suitable...

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...

Hi guys!  When I first saw B & W P5 in Apple Store, I fell in love with it for its design. However, I am not sure whether it is worth to buy. In general, I use ipod classic, and listen to music like Avril Lavigne, Celine Dion, Enrique Iglesias,Laura Pausini and other pop stars. Also I listen to...

Hello all.  I've got a great setup and I'd hate to ruin it with a shoddy pair of cans.  My Sennheisers died so I'm hoping you can help.   I consider myself an audiophile but I don't have hundreds of dollars for a real quality pair of headphones.  I'm looking for the best value for around...

B&W new earphones are available, I was wondering who thinks they are worth it or not for $180 USD.  Thoughts on comparable ones for the price?  

Hi guys!   Please give some reviews on the mentioned subject.   Thanks a lot!

  Hey, this is my first post to the forums as I am in the market for a new pair of "higher-end" headphones.   I purchased the Bose QC3's last week however ended up returning them immediately and couldn't justify spending $350 for headphones that were just "okay". I like the pronounced...
