Hi everyone ,  Total newbie here of course.   Anyways-Recently after much research and thought, I had pretty much made up my mind that I was going to purchase a pair of Bose AE 2 headphones. My reasoning was that I know that they aren't considered the best headphone for the money but they...

Thanks for stopping by Head-Fiers!   New member here, I've been wanting a set of my first quality cans without spending too much for just daily use with music(iphone4S, laptop), movies(laptop, tv), & gaming(360).  This site has been very helpful and I'm glad that I found it.   At first I...

I'm trying to pick out my first decent set of cans. I don't wanna spend more than $80 or so.   I'm pretty much down to the Grado sr60i and the Sony v6.   I hear the Grado's sound really nice, but that they put in alot of their own "personality".  I also hear bad things about how it can...

Hey, I have been searching for the past week for my next pair of headphones, but it has been really hard to decide which one and I'm not able to test any in my area.   I listen literally to ALL genres, from trash metal to bossa nova, I need them to be closed and portable but I would rather...

Hi guys, I've been using Iem for couple of years, from soundmagic to nakamichi, however recently i i felt a need to change, maybe a portable headphone would be great. So far the best fitting headphone and comfortable headphone ive tried is a Philips SHB9100 using wire. Im looking for something...

hey guys,    new to headfi. im looking for comfortable headphones with great bass for under 70. currently own the shure srh 240 but the bass too weak for my taste and its highs are quite piercing at times..   anyway, the important thing is good bass (quality and quantity) and wont...

Hello. I'm Ralph, adn this is my first time in the forums. I'm also totally new to the high quality sound world. I had always listened to music with the headphones included by default with my players, as well as simple headphones I bought in the way, Some time ago, I finally decided to try...

My question is, would tracks such as the one I'm linking to sound amazing on the SR80i's (colorful,punchy,bassy as the track's impression was intended) ?   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDD3b2Cbaw0   Listen in 720p = )   If you're lazy :p, I just want to know how good it represents...

Hi All.  Up until recently, I was pretty happy with my headphones setup.  I have a pair of "modded" Senn HD555's (supposedly turning them into 595 replicas), which I've been pretty happy with.  Sound is good, comfort is pretty phenomenal, and they don't necessarily require external amping to...

Ok so I'm looking for my first pair of decent headphones and I've narrowed it down to these three. I was considering some of the Senn HD 400 series but everyone says the bass is lacking and I can't have that. These would be used pretty much only for ipod and I would use them walking to class and...

Hi there,   I wonder if you can help here.  I'd be very grateful for some suggestions for some closed-back on or over ear headphones (ideally between £30 and £120) for portable use with an iPod.   I've had three pairs of Sennheiser 202 HD now.  They are excellent budget headphones...

Hi all, Currently looking for an upgrade to my current set (Creative Aurvana Live) for under $200 preferably. My music taste is fairly wide, ranging from Asian pop to orchestral mainly from soundtracks. I also like a bit of bass for movies and gaming so I guess I'm looking for a good all...

Hey guys i am currently looking for a new pair of headphones. I posted in the recommendations thread to no avail. So im hoping you guys can help me out. I'm going to wear these mostly at the airport or around my apartment when i don't want to hear my roommates. I don't want too much leakage and...

Hey, I am now looking for a pair of new headphones since my headset just died on me and I realize I don't really need the mic. So for the moment I'm using a cheap $30 earbuds and sounds in general sound really lacking. So, I'm looking for some advice of what you people here would recommend me. ...

Hey guys, I listen to a lot of different types of music. I'm afraid if I get a pair of headphones that I am not going to be able to listen to them with all of my music. And I definitely don't have enough money to buy multiple pairs, so that's out of the question. I listen to Hip Hop, Rap...

Greetings Head-Fi,   I am in need of some help in choosing between 5 pairs of headphones i have selected within my pricerange which is just around $100.  They will be plugged into my computer unamped, and wil be used for listening to primarily bass heavy music(hiphop, drum and bass...

I'm really new to the world of music. I've browsed through the site and found it very informative. Although I'm still stumped and in need of assistance. I own a pair of Bose AE2 headphones and the chord has broke twice since I bought it a while back. I wouldn't know much but it seems too fragile...

Hi, I've been looking for a new pair of headphones as my current Sennheiser HD202 II is starting to fail. Got them for £17 ($27) a couple of years back around x-mas time. Which is just insane considering the sound they produce after a while of listening (4000+ hours atm). I've had a couple of...

I'm new here but have been doing a lot of searching on the forums and haven't been able to find anything quite like what I'm looking for. I'm a long time musician who is finally deciding to really make the jump into being more of an audiophile. I have a nice set of studio monitors that I love at...

I am looking to buy new headphones. The maximum budget I can supply for this is ~$100. I realize that is not very much compared to what you all like to pay, but it still seems like a lot to me. I care about nothing but sound quality on these headphones. Open/closed does not matter to me unless...

Hello,   I'm looking for a new closed over-ear heaphone. I searched a lot on the net and read some buying guides but I haven't found one yet. The problem is that a lot of the headphones aren't available in my region, I live in Belgium.   Here's an alphabetical list of Headphones that...

I currently have the Creative Aurvana Live headphones and I am looking to upgrade. My budget is 60 pound ($100).   I listen to trance, dance and a little rock. I also play games so bass is important.    Please no suggestions over my budget.
