Welcome, and first of all, thank you to Saoshyant and my brother for lending me cans!   Ordered ~by price:: Audeze LCD-2.2F, Hifiman HE-400, Heir Audio 3.ai S, Phillips X1, Sennheiser HD598, AKG Q701, Sennheiser PC 163D, NVX Audio XPT100     I lied. It's 7 for now, until my LCD-2.2F's come...

So this is my very basic setup currently: Creative ZxR (2x OPA627BP) -> HE-400   Always been very curious to try out a decent external DAC/AMP, just want to know how it all sounds! The only thing I'm worried about is positional audio in FPS games because I play competitively. For game settings...

I recently saw that the new HE-560 and HE-400i. The reviews I've seen all say that the new headband and pad are amazing.   Not too long ago I bought a pair of HE-400's and they sound amazing, but the comfort isn't in top, as it is very heavy.   I was wondering, if anyone knows, if it is...

My end connector game off.. anyone had this problem. Im thinking I will have to buy a new cable. I emailed hifiman and they didnd respond.. nice headphones but im not so sure about the customer service.

Looking to spend $300 on a pair of headphones. Looking for headphones that are great for female vocals and a good all rounder. I already have a schiit vali/modi   Ones I have been looking at Sennheiser HD600 Hifiman He-400 ATH AD900 Mad dogs

I have the he-400 hifiman...toying with the idea of buying the new he-400i......would you buy another hifiman or branch out into other manufacturers.

Wanted to throw this question out...   So which headphones and amps do you use to listen to movies?   Any setup that really blows your mind? Like you feel you are really there or find yourself looking over your shoulder to see if the sound is in your house or in the movie?   Movies and...

I'm looking for: -lots of detail and clarity such that the multiple melodic lines in a fugue are easily distinguishable and that every instrument in a piece can be picked out. -unrecessed midrange and textured, extended, substantial (but not at the cost of the midrange/overly bloated) bass...

hello all, i have been doing so much research and looking at prices/reviews past 2 days on my next possible pair of headphones i will aquire. i honestly don't know where to go from here and have selected a few headphones in my top 4. They all look good but i need advice really badly.   The v...

hi all. came here for headphone help a few years back and was very thankful for the advice and help narrowing my selection down. that selection wound up being the hifiman he400s. none of you could have been more correct about the sound. the problem wound up being durability. anyone who has...

Hey, bit of a lurker here but I need help (yes, I have scrubbed the forums about this already  )   I am interested in purchasing a new set of open eared full sized headphones but am having difficulty deciding what to buy It seems like it comes down to sonic qualities as none of these are...

I just purchased a pair of HE-400s and I'm trying to find a nice Amp + DAC Setup to pair with them. I'm looking to spend around $150-$200 on the final pieces and from what I've read, the Magni + Modi stack seem to be excellent performance for the price and the best plug and play setup anywhere...

Hello everyone,   I have recently purchased my Hifiman HE-400 and have also purchased the schist Magni amp as well. I also have a HiFiMeDIY which i purchased a while ago, and I'm wondering if it the DAC is capable enough?  I know the He-400 is easy to amp, but is the DAC up to par or should i...

My ******* (excuse my language, I'm angry at him) of my roommate dropped my headphones and the plug in for the right ear speaker broke. Does anyone know where I can find Replacement cords at a reasonable price!?

I have the EF2A with stock tubes and I really have no complaints with it. It fills in a lot of bass for the HE-400 and gives it a very warm, musical quality. It also makes a massive difference for my Denon Ahd-2000s. My brother is in the market for an amp though and I have some spare spending...

Hello Head-Fi!    I am looking for some help and suggestions. I am looking for the perfect headphones (for me) - currently own the Sennheiser HD598's. I love the sound that the 598's produce with the exception of the bass, or lack there of. I am powering them with a Aune T1 USB DAC/Amp with a...

Hello guys, I'm looking to upgrade my current headphones and these three are the candidates.   What I love when listening to music is being able to follow individual instruments (specially the bass guitar) and being able to hear details, like the sound of cymbals (which sometimes are hidden...

Thoughts, Opinions?

Hey everyone,   Just so you know, this is all being said in the sense of a feeling, nothing definitive, so here goes. I found many of the head-fiers were suggesting I get the HE-400 because I like rock music. It seems to be a near-unanimous thing (aside from Grados), and I decided to order a...

Just wondering if it's worth hanging on to them for a while.

I’m looking for a headphone to drive directly from FiiO X3 when I am at home – without using extra amp or additional equipment. My question is: Which headphone would be the best choice?   Initially I was thinking to go for HD 650 but I read that in order to get most out of it I’ll need a...

I read up on the basic IEM guides, possibly looking at the Brainwavz B2 at the moment.   My main home Headphones are HE-400, so anything that resembles that kind of sound will be perfect (Maybe a little less sibilance would be nice, but I doubt anything comes close to that at this price range)...

Hello, i want to buy new headphones this summer,   My budget: 200 euros (270 dollars)   I listen to: dubstep and rock   I want OVER-ear Good amount of bass Good for gaming WIRED   I dont need a mic since i have a Blue Snowball   And dont come at me with those ****ty Beats (I have...

Okay hey guys im about to make my first BIG headphone and amp purchase... right now ive got my eyes on a used pair of he 400s and im planning on buying a nuforce HDP dac/amp for it. Im worried however that the hdp might have too high of an impedance level for the (i think) 32 ohm he 400's.. This...
