Hello everyone! I'm working on a STAX rig and im pretty set on the SR-L700 but I would like to have others thoughts on a few things. You see I like things that arent to dark or to bright. Say the HD800, Beyer, HE-6 are to bright for me in the treble. While the SR007, LCD, Monoprice planars...

Hello everyone! I am having a hard time choosing between the dt 770 32 ohm vs the m50x. I generally listen to edm, hip-hop, indie and pop music and am a fan of bass(not a bass-head though). Which one would you recommend and why. Thank-you

Been an avid music listener (and musician) for many years now, albeit not a very scrutinizing one. Lately I've felt more and more like cheap earbuds and $10 headphones don't quite do the music justice, hence my dip into the audiophile world. Before I make any purchases, I figured I'd ask some...

I'm looking at the $200 range again, and it seems a new competitor, the 1More Quads, has entered the ring I'm contemplating getting a pair off amazon to audition against the new set of A4's I just got, and will return one of them, but I wanted to hear what you all thought. I used to own the...

Hi everyone! I'm a new and budding audio enthusiast who wants to get into the realm of tubes. I had the chance to audition a cheap (non-audiophile) turntable on my HD558s, and ended up really liking the mellower and non-fatiguing and interesting distorted sound (although I somewhat wish there...

Hi, I am using HD598 and considering upgrading to under 500$ headphones with Audiogd amp+dac, I only listen to epic orchestral music like two steps from hell. Does it worth it to upgrade from hd598( no amp/dac) to under 500$ headphones with 300$ audiogd amp dac? Thanks

God lord, they were some good pairs. Bought them for like 15€ on amazon and they were miles better than my Samsung Earphones which were included in my Galaxy S7 I just bought recently. BUT: I need an upgrade. Why ? Because the sound signature of the VE Monks weren't good enough to keep them for...

My older brother has a pair of the Xiaomi piston 3 in ears that I've been borrowing quite a bit and I really enjoy the sound but when I looked into buying a pair it looks like they're discontinued and out of stock. I had heard that the 1more single driver was similar to the piston 3's but it...
