My mother, being the wonderful person she is, gave me a pair of Dre Beat Studo's for my 23rd this year.  While I do appreciate her thought, they just.... fail. I've had them waaay past the return date, (trying to give them a chance) so I can't return them.... So I got the idea to sell them...

I am a little new to audiophile gear and this will be my first purchase beyond my sennheiser 201's. As the title says I am looking for a headphone \ dac combo to use with my laptop (and maybe sansa clip to).   My sources : Laptop Sansa Clip Zip   What  I own : Sennheiser 201...

Hi, Looking for some advice as am looking for a decent pair of headphones for guitar practice. When I have asked online retailers am getting different brands and models. Akg seem to be mentioned a lot but I haven't got a clue and looking for guidance.

Need some new sealed headphones and am looking for good isolation and a flat response. Budget is not a major concern but I'm not planning on spending more than $1000, and the less I spend, the more I have to spend on other gear - I need to get a new amp as well.   From looking at...

currently looking at the KNS 8400, and the ultrasone 580, are there any better options? at first i was leaning towards the M50's, but read about how much hate the new "white boxed" models are getting. I listen to electronic,jazz,classical, etc. just about anything but country,dubstep(is dubstep...

So, I recently stumbled upon this site after having Google'd around for headphone reviews, and you guys seemed like a knowledgeable and friendly bunch, so here I am. That said, I'm looking for headphones (isn't everyone these days? xD) I'm just stepping out of the shoes of Skullcandy (a...

I was considering getting a pair of M-100s, but it looks like they aren't quite as audiophile friendly as I'd hoped. I'm looking for a fairly transparent set of headphones that will work with a wide variety of genres and are suitable for mixing, and from what I've been reading the M-100s don't...

Hey all, I've been mostly into IEMs for the 2 years I've been on Head-Fi, and I've got pretty much everything I want in that department, but I'm beginning to dabble with a friend in producing electronic music, so I want to take it to the next level and get a real full-size can.   I have 3...

I'm looking for closed headphone around $100-200 USD that look good, sound good for metal and rock such as the big 4, testament, iron maiden, judas priest, led zeppelin, black sabbath, ac dc, overkill, journey, beatles, rolling stones, etc, etc. These will mostly be used with my ipod touch 4th...

Title says it all.  My brother wants to get these for travel, movies, music...   Needs them full size so they go all the way around the ear, must be closed due to airplane use, and he won't be buying an amp so nothing with high impedance.   He wants to spend $100-150.    I always...

Hey guys, a close friend of mine has his birthday coming up, and I'd like to get him a balanced pair of headphones for under $200. I'm looking into the Audio Technical ATH M50. Any other suggestions?

Hey there, I'm trying to find the perfect headphones for me, and so far I have narrowed my options to these two cans: the AKG K 271 MK II and the Shure SHR940. I've already seen the unboxings and the features of both headphones on youtube, so I only need you to explain me the differences...

I have KRK 8400s and they are nice and all but I'm looking for an upgrade. Max will be $400 for everything. If it wouldn't be a noticeable difference in quality then I will not bother with an upgrade. Or I can just buy an amp as I do not already have one. I listen to everything including a lot...

flat response roundup, speaks for itself really, just a note, they have to be good quality and reasonable build quality, doesn't have to be v-moda style build, also must be able to use them on portable (home as well) decent isolation though (sorry denon fans)

they'll be used with fiio e11, gotye, temper trap and gorillaz they need good isolation, good sound and flatest graph possible thanks in advance

Christmas is coming around the corner and I need some advice for a "starter" headphone. I currently have the sennheiser HD 202 but they don't cut it and I want an upgrade. Two headphones I've looked at are Grado sr80i and the Sony MDR7506. I mainly listen to Hard Rock, Jazz, Pop, rap, and...

I'm looking for a pair of headphones that will give me crystal clear sound quality and the best bang for my buck. Price range up to 300$

I've been looking at the Shure SRH940 and the KRK KNS 8400 - but I've read soundonsound reviews of both of them which said that they've both got great mid-range response and ok (not bad by any means, but not stand-out) treble. I've heard similar things said of the AKG K272 HD and 271.  ...

I decided to make a post on this forum, because I saw a lot of good info on here! And decided to make my own thread for some specific answers.   I want to start recording my guitar, because I want to make covers of songs and be able to mix my own. I own a Peavey Vypyr Tube 120W guitar...

I am looking for: best mids for under $300, Open, over-the-ear full size headphone - to use at basement home office. Looking for soundstage and separation.   I have not yet experienced bass detail, nor airiness - curious about these characteristics.   I thought I had wanted treble...

Hello, I have been on the prowl for a decent headset to buy that I can use for travel (don't need to be collapsible). I'd prefer if they were closed back. I currently own and AKG k240 mk II as my main headset at home. I'd like to find something of equal or greater quality I'm currently hunting...

My friend who plays acoustic guitar wants a pair of sond MDR-X10's with the reason that beats vocals sound underwater-like (Finally someone gets it). I warned him saying that MDR-X10s are bassy too, and are also underwater-like. He doesn't like swampy bass, but he also can stand anemic bass...

Hello,    I've been browsing the forum and I thought someone might be able to give me some advice.   I'm looking for a set of headphones for around £80 ($100) for use on my daily commute to work.  I'm probably looking for over-ear rather than in ear due to personal comfort preference...
