These are the phones I've been using for ever it seems and really like the sound quality and signature of these (neutral version). But they are quite big and are a bit too warm the wear for long in summer.   So, with that in mind what would be a decent headphone that would sound similar and...

I have been a long time reader of the Head-Fi forums and joined a few months ago to PM some people for advice.  I am in the market for two new sets of headphones, one open and one closed.  I currently own the Audio Technica AD900, Brainwavz HM5, and Ultrasone HFI-780.  Of those, the AD900 is my...

Hey everyone.   I own the M50s (Audio Technica, for those who don't know lol), and I think they are great headphones.   Now, back in 2010 when they were $100, they were for sure the best headphones in the price range, no questions asked.   Now that they are a little more expensive...

Ok, let me just start off saying that I am not a big fan of beats (I used to 'til I did more research.) A lot of people that I know either own beats or want beats. My brother already bought beats tour and is planning on buying studio beats. I keep telling him that there are way better...

Hello! I looking for new headphones for my PC and Phone. The things i want on them is  -Over Ear   -Good bass, dont need to be so "clear/clean". More like a massive bass. - Can be used without Amp:s when i use my phone. - Budget round 250-300$ for the Headphones and the AMP.  ...

I have some money now and I'd like to buy a new pair of headphones. I'll be using it for home use and for (mostly) alternative and rock.   I'm a fan of closed headphones but I'm open to any other suggestions. The budget is under 600$.   Thanks!

Hi Guys/Gals,   Looking for my first set of "audiophile" headphones. Hoping to stay within the $250 - $350 price point. I've been looking at the 558's and ADH2000's. The 558's seem like the more balanced headphone, so I'm leaning towards them. My source will either be iPod, iPad, Onkyo...

im look for high bass headphones, with large amounts of bass,and not worred about clarliy, willing to spend $500 for a good set, any recommendations?

On average, how long should you burn in the Denon HD2000? Also, what types of tracks should you use to burn them in?

Have been trying to decide for a while. I don't listen to a lot of bass heavy music or game as much as I used to. Other than some rocksmith its mainly for movies. I have a few contenders but with me waiting to get an amp my choices now seem limited. Low side Ultrasone hfi 2400 Denon 2000...

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...

I never purchased headphones $150 and up. So how would the Pro900s compare to an IEM like the IE80 on all the frequencies? Im really debating whether I should purchase the Pro900s or not. I just dont want to dish out $300 for a 'slight' upgrade but I also dont want to miss out on awesome sound...

Hey there , recently ive bought Denon D2000 headphones and its quite good, but the thing is that i always listen on a full volume and seems that it could do a little bit better. I like the quality, just the question is : if the amplifier would increase the sound volume and give a some extra power?

Hi I'm new here! Anyways, I currently have "meh" quality Sennhieser HD 201's and I want a MAJOR upgrade. $200 upgrade What is the best headphone (over ear) for me?  I listen to Dubstep/House so bass is a necessity. I also don't have an amp. Just my phone to my ear. 3.5mm jack. Any...

I will spend around $300 on headphone.    I use my Dell laptop to play the music.   Music genre I always listen to: Post-Hardcore, Metalcore, Deathcore, Dubstep, Rap, Alternative Rock   Therefore, I'm looking for a headphone which is bassy and good performance on guitar.   I...

I'm really happy with my D2000 cans that I use at home, but I'm also looking for something portable.  I consider myself a "bassy-head", not so much a "basshead".  Unlike most, I dont' really consider the D2000 to be "basshead" cans - while they do extend quite low and have some rumble - the bass...

Hello I'm wondering what headphones to buy. My budget is £300 ($470) They will be used on my PC with a Asus Xonar Essence STX  Soundcard I listen to Rap/Hiphop/Dubstep/Drum and bass I like bass but not muddy bass i like punchy bass not a headphone where its so much bass you can...

Hello everybody....it's been a long time since I've posted here (2 years ago was the last time I think). And once again, I'm looking for some advice.   I own (still own since I joined this website years ago) 2 pairs of headphones (over the ear headphones). The AKG K240 MKII and the Ultrasone...

I've been really into music for years but have never had a nice pair of headphones so I'm kind of ignorant to whats best. All the ones I've had previously had one ear go out after a couple of months of use, so I apparently put them through a lot of wear. I use them for at least six hours...

Hey all,   I currently have a Head Direct Hifiman EF2 feeding my HD600s and D2000s, and it actually does a remarkable job of driving both headphones well (despite the huge impedance difference).  The really intriguing thing is that the EF2 has different effects on both cans-with the D2000s...

I have a pair of Sennheiser 419 (among others) Today I noticed a substantial improvement in the sound. It's like a veil has been lifted from the headphones. Now even though I have had them for a while, I alternate between my headphones (& earbuds) a lot. Is this how "burn in" works? is the...

My first post gets deleted due to linking to a site that belongs to a banned member. I had no idea, not a good start getting your first post deleted !   I'll try again...   I have read that headphones shouldn't be less than eight times the output impedance of the amplifiers phone jack...
