I currently have the razer carcharias and while it's one of the most comfortable headset i've ever had, i'd like to upgrade to some "real" music headphones and not a new gaming one. My budget is up to 100 but i'll go a bit above if it is truly worth it. I also want the headphones to be...

Hello all, new user here and new to quality headphones too. Been looking through the forum and found it interesting. Especially since I'm looking for a set right now.    Looking for some headphones, no more than $120, for music, movies, and gaming (all platforms). The usual. More than...

I got ha-rx900 headphones on thursday (im in australia, ordered them from america) and im still waiting for my fiio e1. I listened to the headphones through my ipod and was initially a bit dissapointed that they were only a bit better then my soundmagic pl30s. I was under the impression that...

Yes, the title explains pretty much everything. I tried the Sennheiser HD515's, and though the highs and mids are great the bass is lacking (when I listen to stuff like Bassnectar, Skrillex, deadmau5, or other stuff like that, bass is very important to me). I use the Microsoft LifeChat LX-3000's...

I saw these mentioned on the forums here, and decided they were worth a try. Worth it they are. At just under $60 shipped from Buy.com these phones impressed me right off. 1st thing, I chose slow free shipping from Buy on the 7th, and here they are on the 10th. Take a look: JVC HA-RX900...

Hi guys. So Newegg blows and they made a mistake with inventory and they hadn't sent out my JVC HARX900 that I ordered. While they were polite, the fact that I've had to deal with their customer support umpteen times makes it not worth it to order from them again. (Let's not go into a...

Hello,   First of all, I have never seen a forum so dedicated and well organized as this one. Truly deserve the reputation. So, like every first time curious buyer, I searched a lot of headphones which fit my budget and narrowed the results to few. These are the finalists   1. Sennheiser...

Which one is better for the price they offer? I'll need these for music and movies. Any recommendations?

Hi All, Greetings. This is my first expensive headphone purchase! Till now I was using $20 Sony earbuds. My Primary requirement is Movies(40%), Gaming(40%), Music(20%). I am not an audiophile. I have narrowed down the choices to two headphones: 1. Steelseries Siberia v2 ( again USB vs non-...

Hey, Head-Fi peeps I am recently looking for a pair of headphones that cost less than $100 that has great some quality and is really durable. I really don't care about looks. Thanks! Samuel

My first pair of what I hoped to be good headphones came in the mail today. I unpacked it and eagerly played my favorite song from iTunes.. and I was very disappointed, to say the least. I understand that there is a burn in time needed for these headphones, but I didn't expect the initial sound...

I'm having a hard time to decide on which headphone to buy. The headphones are the JVC HA-RX700, JVC HA-RX900, and the Sennheiser HD558. These headphones will be powered by my Pioneer VSX-1120 receiver. I have no plans to do any mods on the headphones or no plans to use a headphone amp.   ...

Since getting my JVC HA-RX900s, I have become painfully aware of one of their biggest flaws: They make you look like some kind of escaped mind control experiment subject.   I get the feeling a lot of nice headphones do this.   So, what kind of headphones do you guys think would be ideal...

Ok i NEED to order a new pair of headphones this morning my budget is £60 but i can go a bit higher if needed and so far all i have seen are senn hd515, senn hd448 But i cannot decide on which ones! Any suggestions would be nice please! The headphones will mainly be used for lissening to...

Hey everyone. I've been looking for a new pair of headphones since my old ones broke. I'd appreciate any recommendations in the 40-60 dollar range. My budget is pretty tight so I probably won't go over it unless it's a really good deal.   Anyway, I'll be using it from mostly my laptop...

i am an audio newbie. just starting off with that. i am studying music (classical) in school and listen to a wide range of music. Mostly alternative, but also classical and rock. I feel like i have been reading so much the last few weeks and everytime i almost decide on a set of headphones...

Hey guys i got a pair of JVC HARX700's after reading nothing but positive reviews on the forums, and i have found them a great buy. However, i have a big problem with these headphones feeling too hot after about 40 minutes of use or so, does anyone know a trick to solve this problem? Much...

I have read a few reviews of the 668b but nothing about their HP amps. Thanks to this forum that now I am a proud owner of the JVC HAR 700/900, Fostex 20 RP Mk II.   Analytical, somewhat bright, not fun are some SQ I like. If the Superlux 668b can be as good as my Senn HD 280 or better, I...

Hey guys and gals. Alright, this might sound weird but I like the Sennheiser HD238 (general sound signature and comfort). Mine is modded with aluminum instead of the foam in the cup, so that might be why. I know a lot of people have issues with this headphone sounding muddy but it's really a lot...

I will mainly use it for listening to music and studio music recording (Not as important) So far I've looked at: Philips SHP8500 Sony MDR-XD200 Sennheiser HD 202 Philips SHP2500     But after reading a few reviews, all of them have at least one flaw; whether its...

Whats up guys? I'm trying to do a detachable cable & mic mod on my rx900s. Well this is my first time ever trying to mod headphones, so I have never soldered before or anything. I have used the search function and I googled cable/mic mods for the rx900s. Unfortunately,I couldn't find anything...

Hi,   Looking for my first nice headphones - I thought about HD555, but since they're open and at home and work I listen to music near other people, and I don't want them to hear what I'm listening to, I thought that I must get closed headphones... Is that true?     Assuming that is...

I recently bought the JVC HA-RX500. I ended up returning them because the mids were too high for my taste. I kind of liked the effect for some music, but overall they sounded rather unnatural compared to all the headphones I ever heard and to my speakers. They had kind of a "cupped hands...

I see a lot of people here talking about the sound quality of the headphones, but I don't see a small list of CDs to be used as reference for better judging. Since the beginning of the 70s until now there have been  thousands of recordings that go from absolute perfection to absolute crap. There...
