Hey everyone!   I am new here to the forums, and tubes, and headphones in general. I am only 24 and recently into the hi-fi game. This is my first post, but I have crept the forums a lot lately trying to do some research, but as opinions go... I keep seeing both good and bad about different...

After trying to find an IEM that was perfect for me I have failed. I am wiping my hands clean from my search for iems. I would consider myself a beginner audiophile. I have a basic understanding of bass, mids, highs and soundstage. I am not a bass head per say but I do enjoy bass when...

I just got a pair of HE-300 and was wondering how do people tell which version the HPs are? I was under the impression the newest versions came with pleather pads, but mine came with velour. Is there any other ways to tell?

Howdy! As y'all know, the holidays are coming up and that mean more expensive gifts than usual! What are y'all asking Santa for? What are y'all getting for others? And on the 25th, what'd y'all get? Christmas general! Note, not to be confused with the 2013 Holiday Gift Exchange...

I've been searching for headphones for a few days and really like the look of the AKG's.   Now, the kind of music I listen to doesn't really go with the headphones, so I need your opinions.   I listen to trance/house/techno/dubstep and Hip-Hop/Rap. Are there any AKG's that would be decent...

Hi! I have my eyes on a used pair of HE-300 which where purchased in December 2011. I was wondering if there is a way to differentiate physically the version 2 from the version 1. Is comparing the cable sufficient (three different type of cable seemed to have accompanied these headphones...

I have been searching through threads and through review sites for several hours and find myself going in circles on what headphones I should be looking at buying. I have never spent more than $20 on a pair of headphones before and I am willing to put down $100-$300 for a nice pair. I have been...

Hi I'm looking at the HE300's and the HE4's and I would be using them with a Fiio E9 & E7 but I would like to know if the HE4's could be powered by the amp and dac? As I hear they are very high power cans...I think the HE500 are too pricey for me so it is between these 2 any help would be...

So i decided to get get a set of open headphones for christmas, the choice was really between hd650, he-300 and dt990. Since i cant find any place that sells hd650 to canada for under 1 million dollars (more like 440 but still expensive). The he-300 are 249 | the dt990 pro are 180(shipped...

Which will be more suited to acoustic, piano, vox, softrock/indie and a bit of jazz and blues. From my research the AKG will prob be more to my liking as far as sound sig goes. It does seem to be more accurate and natural of the two, with a more realistic stage. The Ad900 on the other hand big...

Hey head-fiers,   I really want to upgrade to better full-size headphones.
