Hey all, Im about to place an order on pricejapan for the ath w1000x. Was thinking of getting an amp that wouldnt kill my already hurting wallet. Would the Fiio e7 + e9 be good enough?   Also, does anyone feel that the w1000x bass is abit too little? I auditioned some un burned in ones today...

Note: I also posted this in the "Buying headphones?" thread but I got no replies so, I'm attempting a new thread. Sorry if this is not allowed.   Hi there. I'm looking to improve my personal hearing equipment. I have read a lot of the threads around this forum but, I would like direct...

Hi all, Ive recently sold my ESW9 because they didnt isolate well and were abit uncomfortable due to their size. The sound however was amazing and I really like everything about the sound signature.   Now looking for full sized cans that can deliver same or better sound. Was looking at ATH...

Hey all, Im replacing my ath-esw9 with Denon 5000s. Would these be good upgrades? If so, its selling for US$800 here in singapore. Is that overpriced? What kind of pricing should they be?   Thanks

Hello everyone!    I posted a couple of questions in the original "Seek guidance here" thread but wasn't getting many hits on my questions so I thought I'd create a thread.    I picked up a few weeks ago, the Sennheiser HD-25 II's and absolutely love them. My only complaint is that I...

So I just visited a local headphone store here in China, looking to try out the Grados they had there (SR60)...I honestly didn't like them very much though.  Just not my sort of sound signature. However, I tried out a pair of AH-D7000s they had there, and they were pretty amazing...

Hi there, has anyone ever bought, the denon D5000 pads from Jmoney Audio, recently? I have some problem to contact them, because they rarely  to reply to my mail. Are they a reliable seller?

My cat ate through my D7000 cable coming out of the left ear and now I need to get them repaired. Rather than splicing the cable back myself, I figured I'd do it right and either get them replaced with the stock cable or something else. If I send them back to Denon, it will be $55 just for...

So I've had my Ath-m50s for about 2 months now and I cant put them down. Everywhere I go they are always with me and at this point I don't care about what others think of me when using such large headphones in public. I wake up in the morning i listen to them, when i work i listen to them and...

Hi people   I've had these headphones for a while and I've just started to notice a strange sort of distortion comes through occasionally. It does vary and the sound source is ussually low when this happens. But in all fairness this problem has never happened in the past and seems to be a...

Hello, I got a pair of Denon AH-D5000s and I'm getting rattling (mechanical) noises on one side while playing deep bass notes.   Anyone familiar with this? Where can I get a replacement driver? How much does a replacement driver cost?   thanks for your help!

Hi guys I have read many of your forums but this is my first thread I am starting so Okay... I listen to songs I download from itunes and Right now I have a setup of my ipod touch and my zo personal subwoofer amp. I have a goal of getting the bassiest headphone ever made. I have the M50s right...

SO I have a little dilemma. I am trying to find a great pair of companion cans for my K701's. Now I always hear people saying that the 650's are good as a companion, but I really don't like the 600's since they seem to boomy for me. The 650's are supposedly darker still so I don't think they...

I love my K701, but it seems like it's missing its 'thump' or 'bass'... should I switch over to a DT990 or a HD650? i'd like the same clarity but with more bass. im leaning towards a dt990 or just get an amp. thanks.

I'm a huge metalhead, and I started my audiophile career with the Denon D2000s. I've always been looking for my perfect headphones (already done) and I've seen Grados recommended for metal specifically more times than I can count. Every time I see someone who listens to metal, I go to their...

IS there any closed can that have a very large soundstage?... or i have to get open ones?...   also, are there any headphones that have soundstage, and very detailed sund, but do not need very hard amplification?...

Hi there,   I am thinking it's finally time to get some amplification going for my headphones. Right now, I have the Denon D-5000's, and I have plans for getting a pair of custom IEM's at some point in the distant future. My reason for getting an amp is not simply to go louder, my iPod can...

Hi guys, Im searching for an amp for my DT 880 600omh, I would buy the Fiio E9 but I'm afraid there is better choices for AMP's, So Im here.   I have been thinking in a amp and DAC all together, I have U$130 to spend on it, I'll buy everything in the internet.   There is good choices of...

Hi All   I’ve had the pleasure of listening to the Denon AH-A100 100th anniversary limited edition/production headphones at the Manchester Hi-Fi show in the UK over the weekend. I had my iPod [Latest] with myself on that day so I could give you impressions running them straight-off the...

So, within the last few weeks I've purchased Shure840's as well as D5000's.  Running both off an E7/E9 from my desktop...or a Denon avr-1911 receiver.  Media I'm listening to is FLAC or 320 mp3.....all genres really....   Now here's the problem...besides for the comfort issue, I'm liking the...

Not every headphone comes with storage case. D5000 and DX1000 were my previous examples. This is what I found. The packaging it came in seemed suspect. And the only things showing it's from ATH is the packing tape and logo on the case. I don't even know the model name. But quality seems...

I'm looking to buy a pair of full-sized closed headphones to use at work and I was all set on the DT770s until I saw the Pro 900s mentioned in a thread here... The Pro 900s would be stretching the budget a bit already, but is there anything else that's great and in the $200-400 range that I'm...

Okay, hoping Head-fi can help me out a little with this.   I just recently got in to the world of "real music" and by that I mean, listening to music on a real set of headphones and hearing things in the songs that I have never heard before.  Up until recently, I've only owned 50$ headphones...

I have been on here a while now and I finally want to buy something good. I ordered a DJ1 Pro but it had a faulty cable so wouldn't work properly. So i don't know how good that could have been. Before i return i was wondering if I should exchange it for something else? I chose ultrasone as I...

After breaking in my new Denon AH-D1001 for about 200 hours, I was reasonably pleased with the sound of these sub-$100 cans, but the prodigious bass from these little suckers was definitely loose and not well controlled. So, I decided to try to tame it with a few of the mods that Head-Fi guy...
