Hello everyone,     I am going to be as objective as possible so not to take a lot of your time.   BUDGET: $90~$130.   GENRE: Classical, Instrumental (like OSTs, Yann Tiersen, Joe Hisaishi, Ryuichi Sakamoto, etc.), Rock (lots of styles, except for metal, thrash, death and similar)...

Hi, I want to use Beyerdynamic DT990 Pros with a laptop now im wondering which will work better, these are 250 ohm headphones.   Option #1: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0044DEDCA/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER   Paired with the beyerdynamics.   Option #2...

Hey guys,   I have been a happy owner of the M50 for 5 months. I really love the sound signature of these, but I'm looking for cans that offer more comfort, and better (wider) soundstage.  I saw that DT770 have velour pads so I guess these can be way more comfortable than m50, but is the...

I need an IEM which resembles E10 sound signature, with more bass,detail,clarity and soundstage. Budget should be around $50 . Please suggest me.

Hi everyone,   longtime lurker, and love the extensive IEM reviews, so thanks for all who have contributed!   I had a set of JVC HA-FX80 IEMs, which I quite liked once the bass improved upon burn-in.   They crapped out, and JVC said they are discontinued (as is the FX300 series), so...

About a week and a half ago I got a pair of SoundMAGIC E10 IEMs and I love the immersive sound. But I keep having discomfort while wearing them.   My main audio player is a Droid RAZR MAXX phone running the PlayerPro app, with the volume almost always set to the lowest or second-to-lowest...

I am looking for a pair of.open cans for under 200. I have a pair of shure 840s and an e10 amp so something that would.work well with an e10 amp. Mainly for gaming so I prefer something with a large soundstage

Hey. I have a pair of m50s with an e10 amp recommended by a friend. I'm in the market for a new pair. Hopefully an upgrade from m50s and people suggested to check out head fi. I'm looking for an open pair of headphones great for movies and games. And also if possible I prefer if it has very...

Hi there. I stumbled upon this site last week when I was searching for high end headphones. My first and current impression is that these people really know their stuff, and care about sound. The last couple of months, I've given more and more interest in high end sound quality. I have always...

Hey guys, I ended up here on my search for a couple headphones that meet my requirements, and I would be grateful to any help you guys could give me.   The things I want are: -Comfort (a must, for gaming sessions from 2 hours to 6 hours at a time) -Long lasting (I don't want to have to...

I'm not sure if this is the most correct section to post this but my headphone slot has broken on my laptop and so I'm looking for a sound card so I can use headphones on it again as well as to connect to external speakers (which aren't currently connected to an amp, although I may purchase one...

Hello guys,   I've been doing researches about headphones the whole week! about 6 hours a week or more than that!! so im still not into the audophile world as my knowledge about headphone is still fairly low :P. so basically, I DO NOT WANT an amp with me while i use the headphones, as i find...

I have audio technica athm50s but I'm looking for something with a little more feel to it. Specifically, I want to hear every little detail in the music. I listen to almost every genre so something close to a flat eq would be preferred. Must fit around ears. $300 budget with a little flex. I was...

So out of these two headphones, around the same price, which one is worth more of the money? Is there any other headphone that can compare? To be more precise, which headphone is best from $300-$400 and is good for classic, 60's-70's music and hip hop, dubstep, electronic.....???? ( will be used...

I've been doing research, but seeing as how this will be my first step into higher-end headphones I thought I'd post. I've never heard open headphones before and to my knowledge there aren't any places local to Birmingham, AL for me to audition headphones in general. There's a local Guitar...

would the sennheiser 598s be a significant upgrade over the 840s i have the shure 840s now and an e10 amp. Would the 598s powered by the e10 be much of an improvement

Planning to buy the AKG K550 very soon, and I'm wondering if it is needed to drive the headphone. I am planning to use the headphone on my desktop computer. If so, what amp do you guys suggest on buying?   Thanks Guys, ~Newbie

I am going crazy for what headphones i should get i have a budget though $240 and €190. I was thinking about the Audio Technica ATH-M50 for a while heard some good things about them but also that they are overrated , i listen to a lot of genres in music , from Hip Hop to classic, dance ,Regae ...

I listen with my Sennheiser HD598 and a USB soundcard (Sounblaster XFi Pro). I am under the impression that the sound quality is decent at the very least. I have read though that the impedance is higher for lower frequencies and as a result of that the lower frequencies could be insufficiently...

Looking for some closed headphones that are over the ear, VERY comfy, good build quality and dont leak too much sound. Dont mind if they let sound in, but as long as I can listen to them at a decent volume and people dont get too irritated around me, its fine. I listen to mostly electro house...

Hi, I currently got the Beats Studios, and the sound is quite **** to be honest. The only thing they have going for them is design but I don't wear them outside the house anyway so I figured I might aswell ditch this piece of crap and move on to something with better sound quality. My budget...

Hi,   I do not have a decent source for my Atrio Mg7's, i am in the market for a DAC or a DAC/AMP(preferred) Under 150$, will be more than happy to pay 100$ i shall be getting the V MODA M80's soon too.   Another question will there be any noticeable difference? i have been looking in to...

Hi Guys , Newbie Here . Well recently i just bought myself a pair of cans . They are the Audio Technica ATH-M50s . Since there are alot of positive reviews about them , i decided to pick them up from the Amazon Which Cost me USD 138 . Not Cheap though but if they were to be a great pair of...

I'm going to apologize for being the million person to ask this question, but I've been pouring over these forums for a week and I am more confused now than when I started. Anyway on to my question: I have about $300 to invest in my first DAC ( really a DAC/Headamp combo ) and I'm baffled by...

I have a very small budget, having picked up the headphones for cheap used. The most I would be willing to spend is £100 (GBP) Will be using it at my desk only, so it being portable is not a requirement There are a lot of options around this price range (I have looked at the dac destroyer...
