Well, I spent the last few days burning in my HA-RX900s for the majority of each day plugged into a radio, turned up loud, and put under a pile of blankets. They're somewhere between 100 and 125 hours, I'd guess. Enough to take them out now and make some more definitive judgments, at least. I...

The HardOCP people said this was the place to go to ask for help choosing a good gaming headset. So, the criteria: $0-$150 max price range. If an amp is needed that headphone + amp needs to be no more than $160. Closed headset. I sit right next to the tv that my wife is usually watching...

hey,   im looking to buy a pair of headphones and i am very very new to all this.   I was wondering if you guys can recommend me a good pair of headphones.   I will be using them for gaming, movies and music ( rock, rap, hip hop, trance, metal ).   I was looking to buy the...

Hello, Ive got a question that I am hoping that somebody can answer for me or rather point me in the right direction. I'm looking to purchase a new set of headphones and I have no idea what i should be looking for. A little bit about what I would like: I listen to alot of music, mostly rap and...

  Hi, everyone! I am a new-comer here from china. I accidentally came upon this forum one day and I really feel this is the right place for information and knowledge update.   The phones I have ever purchased are sennheisser HD200, AKG K242HD, JVC HP-RX900, grado SR325. No need to explain...

So im in need of new headphones. I have some 15€ Philips headphones at the moment, which are kinda okay (for the price), but i need lower bass. Im mainly listening to techno, drum and bass, but also some rock and everything else that feels and sounds good. Im kinda not looking for hifi...

Hi everybody! It's been a while since I've been lurking on this forum, but still I cannot make up my mind on choosing a good pair of headphones under 100 euros (let's say 150$). It would be my first pair of "hi-fi"  (although maybe i'm using this word improperly) headphones, so I think it...

  I was wondering if anyone has opinions between these two headphone amps/DACs. I plan on picking up either one depending on what others think. I like the fact that the E7 is portable, so I can bring that with me and use an L1 out of my ipod to the E7. But I like how the D1 has much more...

Hey guys, could you hit me with some rec's for the price range of $100 - $150 CAD? There's a headphone bar in Vancouver but I don't know what they all stock. Give me your best rec's and I'll check them out in-store / online. Thanks in advance guys!

  The JVC HARX700 get great marks around here, but I almost always see them referenced at a $30 price point. Lately they've been going for twice that, and I'm wondering if anybody thinks they're still competitive at $60.

I've been using the search function on the forums for a week straight, and googling until I can't stand it any more. I started another thread, but tonight I realized that it wasn't really asking the right questions.   Previously I owned a set of JVC HARX900's. They were very nice sounding...

I'm looking for a set of headphones around £35, however, can, at a push, go up to £50 at the absolute most if it would make a lot of difference.   I'll be using them mainly for gaming and listening to music. I don't tend to listen to that much bassy stuff, however have got some in my music...

Hi,   My boss has offered to buy me a nice set of headphones to use for a long project we're doing at work, and I'm having a bit of trouble deciding.   My price range is $100 or so, and I would like very comfortable, over the ear, preferably sealed phones. Foldable is a plus. Right now...

Jvc HARX900  or   Sony MDRXB700?   Hi I would buy a pair of headphones, I'll use them for listening to classical music, and to compose music with the final. im actually interested in these two models, because I prefer to have a bit forced bass. could you give me advices? thank you

Hi there,   I'm a bit embarrassed to tell this but anyway, here is what happened. A few days ago, at the end of my holidays in Japan, I bought myself a JVC HP-RX900 headphones, seeing as most reviewers agree they are great value for the price (I'm not an audiophile, just needed some decent...

A couple of days ago I decided to get some decent headphones. Up until now I have never owned anything worth more than 30-40$, most of them in-ear phones. So I started reading reviews, and looking through what Amazon had to offer, and I got more confused than I was when I started :). So I...

Hi, I've been a member of Head-Fi for a while now. I own a SR-60, SR-80. But now, I'm looking to purchase another headphone ... I'm thinking of listening to pop music on my MP3 player (also my BlackBerry phone :P) ... occasionally I'd use it for watching movies at home, especially during night...

Hello. I recently upgraded my on-board sound-card to an Asus Xonar DG. So now I am looking for a pair of headphones mostly for gaming and movies. After some research I've come up to those:   JVC HA-RX900   Sennheiser HD 448   What do you think? Is there any other pair in that...

Hey guys, I feel like I have just discovered music. I'm looking for a set of cans that wont just kill a guy with a slightly large head size. I don't have "grande" dome or anything,and, I desire comfy gear. I'm thinking closed cans would be the route I'd need to pursue as-well. I'm hoping to get...

Im currently deciding between the M50 and RX900. The RX900 is cheaper and has a wider sound stage and I am wondering if I should go with these instead. So what are the advantages of the M50?   I was able to compare the difference between a wide and low sound stage (not with the cans...

So, to start. I previously owned a set of HARX900's which I modded. I didn't enjoy the post-mod sound, so I sold them. I would actually say that most people would prefer them modded, but I need attenuated highs because my ears are sensitive, so the weak highs these come with stock is absolutely...

Greetings all - long time reader, first time poster. Based on a number of reviews from this forum and others, I purchased a set of RX900's which arrived yesterday. I had an opportunity to listen to them for a little while yesterday afternoon and then left them plugged in to my amp at moderate...

I have ksc75's but they are not very comfortable and I'd want a better SQ. I'm mostly an xbox 360 gamer and I listen to some electronic music (deadmau5,Daft Punk), indie/rock (The hives, 3 doors down, Foo fighters, Fall out boy) and other groups like The Bloodhound Gang. The source is a pc...

Hi! First post here, I was reading the forum, as suggested, to look for options. But the more I read the more options I had :S. I'm looking for help, I'm looking for closed headphones, because most of the time I'm in places with lots of people, or even when I'm at a library I wouldn't like to...

So, I joined here after lurking for a while. Right now I'm using some piece of junk Skullcandy headset running 120kbp/s AAC.  Needless to say, I'm not entirely satisfied with the sound. ^_^ Budget: About $90, slightly flexible. Music: Classical, Alternative, Folk, a small bit of metal...
