I have been throughly enjoying the excellent JVC HA S500 and needed to get the wife one (that's what we all use as an excuse right ?) so I ordered the JVC HA S400 (couldn't decided which color, ordered the Red and the Silver)   Links to DSnut's thread on the excellent HA S500...

I am looking to purchase some cans for my fiancee as we are about to have multiple flights, each several hours long. She really likes the look of white headphones. Her genres consist of pop, country, rock, and some hip-hop. Closed headphones would be the best, with a decent amount of bass. Over...

Which one is the better one and why? I'm listening to rap/hiphop, so I want a tight punchy bass with good impact. But mids and highs also should sound very clear. I also want really clear vocals.

Could someone recommend a pair of Portable, foldable, closed on ear headphones for under $50? For me, the most important features are  sound quality, comfort, and noise isolation in that order.   I've been looking at these heapdhones. Audio Technica ATH-SJ11  MEElectronics HT-21  ...

My nephew is turning 8 in a couple of weeks and I'm getting him a Clip+ with Rockbox for his birthday.    Just wondering what would be an appropriate and comfortable pair of headphones for a young child.    IEMs are definitely out of the question.  I would like to get him something full...

Hi everybody.   I'm after a pair of portable, lightweight headphones that I'm planning to use for listening (mainly) to rock/hard rock/metal music. I want them portables but probably I'm going to use them indoors equally much as outdoors as I only own a pair of Porta Pros and I would love...

Hi. I have heard allot of good things about these cans, and really want to get them in white.   I've seen several pics of the white version, but can't find it for sale anywhere. If anyone has seen the white version online anywhere, please send a link my way! (although I live in...

Hi All,   I'm looking for my first on-ear headphone. After a few days searching I found some pretty nice. Firstly let me tell you what headphones I'd like. Mostly I will use it on streets with an iphone 4 so mobility is important. It should be closed system and one important thing is the...

Hello Everyone, I will shortly introduce myself, I am a young (23 years old) hifi lover and formally I only listened to floorstanding/monitor speakers with good results. Price tag was very different, from 100 bucks to around 6000 bucks which was the most expensive kit I had. I live in The...

I think a thread like this might be kind of fun.  I would define "Price Point" as street price (not retail).  Doesn't have to be lower priced phones either.  If you have experience with a $1000 headphone that you feel performs like a $1500 (or whatever) phone, by all means, please list it.  I'll...
