Before anyone says "there are lots of post just like this" i want to say the reason i am asking is because no one comes up with a final answer people are pretty much just listing off headphones. And with my limited knowledge of such things its hard for me to make a decision because i dont know...

Hello, Head-Fi folks! So, the last post I made, I was considering stepping things up, but life happened, money was gone and everything sucked. Since then, though, I've toyed around with demo headphones in Best Buy and other stores to find that my love of heavy bass was fading. I found myself...

Hello everyone,   So, I am looking to purchase a new set of headphones, and I was hoping I could get some advice from the knowledgeable members of Head-fi.org.   Here are the details: I have had the ATH-M50s for ~ 2 years, and I love them. They are great. A need another pair of...

Ok all you head-fi'ers, I have a challenge for you. I want the BEST headphones for under $100, though I'm not really an "audiophile". Right now I have a pair of Sony XB-500s ($70), but they feel cheap, aren't good at keeping in sound, and are pretty bulky. Also I have found that the bass and...

Hi guys, I'm looking for a good pair of headphones for listening to music at home. I found a Pioneer HDJ500 headphone that looks good, but some people say the quality isn't that good. What I want is crystal clear mids and highs, and decent amount of bass and under 100$ if possible. It's hard...

After reading countless posts, I bit the bullet and I got the K550 this weekend.  For the most part I like them. Though, there are some issues that I have with them and now I don't know if I should return the K550 and get the D600 (or something completely different).     I got the K550...

I missed out on the deal by 3 days. Why does life have to be so cruel...?   I may have to postpone the search for a pair of headphones under $130. </3

Hi head-fi, I've been lurking here for some months already, but I now need your help to choose my next headphones. I'm looking for big, comfortable, full-sized headphones to plug into my laptop and desktop (onboard audio). I mostly listen to rock (radiohead, the doors, pink floyd) and electronic...

Hi, I have emailed my professor about buying studio headphones for digital audio course since its required, and he told me the first that comes to mind is The Seinheiser 280, but he will try to find his full list and email me it soon, however its been a week or so and I still haven't received...

Greetings Headfi-ers!   I'm a newbie here after sticking around looking at reviews and comments in the forum and also relatively new to the world of high end equipments (about three months). I've always been itching to ask questions here but due to the lack of experience in the audio field...

Hi Head-Fi Community,   Ive used in-ear buds my entire life and last year i bought a pair of klipsh s4i and now i am looking to buy a pair of full sized headphones.   1. I'm a college student who spends the majority of the week in my room studying, I need a set of headphones that do a...

Are there any that have a balanced sound under $200? I'm considering the KRK KNS8400 right now but the Beyerdynamic series intrigue me as well.

like the title said im looking for a good pair of headphones that sound great but look decent i wanna start a collection of headphones(excluding beats,soul and sms) but im a little short on cash not too much just some i already  have a pair of decent headphones and i  want another pair and good...

My teammate is seeking closed headphones strictly for gaming for less than $150 max.   Preferences: Good isolation (We play in big lan centers/events with lots of excessive noise) No modifications required (Plug and play preferred) Soundstage comparable to open (I know this is abit...

I've loved my HD598's so I suppose it's merely boredom and or the attractiveness of the AKG K550's that has me thinking I might like to buy the K550's. I have also in the last year or so found myself listening almost exclusively to Classical music. My tastes are pretty broad in Classical, I...

Would it be safe to assume that these are the best "balanced", closed headphones for people limited by small budgets? I ask this because I'm about to purchase these for $130.

Hello, I know there is a recommendation mega-thread, but I have a need to compare a list of specific headphones on how they meet specific needs.   I invite the onwers of the listed headphones to give comments. If you own one of these headphones, can you tell me how your headphones cope with...

Im planning on upgrading my ath-m50's soon, my budget would be around 300 dollars. I listen mostly to rock like green day, audioslave, guns and roses, etc. I personally don't feel the ath-m50 does well in rock because when I compared them to my sennheiser ie60's and it just sounded overall...

Hey guys this is my first post here, I actually just registered here just to ask this question since it seems this site has a good reputation on knowing what's what when it comes to headphones.   I want to get headphone for around 200 or under if it goes over 200 that would be fine too as...

Hey there Head-Fi,   Like the title says, I'm looking for a pair of headphones that have a balanced sound, sounds clear but not analytical with a good tight and controlled bass. Something that has good instrument separation and imaging, doesn't have to be amazing. I'm debating between the...

So, I have not seen a "Giant Killer" thread in a little bit. This is just a thread where you can post ANY headphones/ earbuds (preferably sub-50 dollar US range) But anything is acceptable! I want to hear everyone's voice here. For me, my giant killers are the Monoprice 8323. They have sound...

I'm looking to buy a new pair of Cans and i've picked out the 8 best in this price range (Under $200)   I'll be driving them with my Htc Incredible S and sometimes my Macbook. I'll be using a  Fiio E6  Fiio E11 Amp. I prefer lots of Bass but i also want balance.   - So Vote away...

Why hello there, I am new here as I am also new to the "audio world". In the past (though i did not realize it) I have been using really crappy headphones such as skullcandys, apple earphones, iFrogz Noise Pollution, etc. And even more recently the Bose OE2i and Beats by Dre Solos (very...

If this is in the wrong place, please feel free to move it. I'm brand new here, so I don't know how things work.   Hey guys! As you can probably see, this is my first post. This is also going to be my first major $50+ Headphone purchase. I was looking for some advice.   First, some...

Hey guys this is my first time do a review for my headphone. It would be great if you guys can give me some feedbacks about the review and how the grading system works (Does the point system really necessary..etc). Otherwise, ENJOY : )   Preface: KrK monitors have always been my...
