Okay, I listen to my ipod nano with typical "junk files".  I simply don't have the time and energy to upgrade my 1000+ song collection to 320 or lossless at this time.  Maybe a couple years from now when my newborns are older and I have some free time.   Looking into "upgrade" or just...

Hello all,   Based on all the great reviews about the clarity of the Shure 940's I overlooked the comments about build quality and purchased them. I figured that the "cheap plastic" wouldn't be a concern for me since I'm generally easy on my stuff and it had the nice hard case included. Well...

I currently have the Sony MDR-7506 and the Grado SR80i.  I love both of these headphones but I am now starting to see the limitations of them both.  I love the fact that they both have a flat response and provide an accurate reproduction of what the artist intended the music to sound like.  ...

Hey guys im completely new to this( so please excuse my terminology) Im 15 looking for a good setup for listening on the bus I have abseloutly no clue of what to get I was very drawn in to the whole beats world but relized that beats by dre are a no-go I want something midly stylish I mostly...

Title kinda says it all can any body give me a comparison it will be greatly appreciated.

I'm currently deciding between these three headphones for mainly rock and metal. A lot of people have said the T5p and the T70p sound awful for rock and metal due to the lack of bass, but I plan on EQing the bass with either an iphone or a fiio E17 amp. It seems like both beyers have an...

I've been having my DT990 Premium (250ohms) for a while and loved it a lot. Now that I have a bit extra cash ($200-300), I'm about to invest in my next headphones. I'm not not looking for an upgrade but a pair of cans that complement my DT990 and brings some new listening experience. Here's a...

I'm not an audiophile at all and currently own a pair of Beats that are going back to Best Buy tonight. I just purchased a pair of Denon AH-600's because I think they look very nice and since I will be working in an office soon I feel Beats are too childish for me.    I see many mixed...

I listen to a lot of music on Spotify, and I know that some of their music isn't the highest quality. Which of the headphones below would be forgiving of low quality files? 1. Beyerdynamic DT880 600ohm 2. MrSpeakers Mad Dogs  3. Sennheiser HD600 4. Hifiman He-400

Hey guys,   It's this time of the year again when I would love to trade my In-Ears for some nice warm full-sized headphones. I never had any so I really don't know what to look for. First I really like the sound signature of my JH-16 Pros especially the low end. The full-sized cans are...

Budget up to 1k. Need closed over the ear cans in the 32 ohm range. Yes, I like good full bodied bass. I listen to Metal, Rock, Down tempo electronic ( Tosca, Ten Maddison). Been reading reviews for weeks and have considered these in no particular order...   Beyerdynamics Custom One Pro...

Hello, I open this thread to appreciate the Mad Dog.   We also have the thread:   http://www.head-fi.org/t/613576/mad-dog-by-mrspeakers-modified-fostex-t50rp-review   But I think it is time to have an appreciation thread.   With the Mad Dog I love guitars accuracy and naturalness...

So the title says what I'm looking for.  I listen mainly to classical.  I am currently using the Beyerdynamic DT 880s (250 ohm).  I use an audio gd dac/amp which can drive most headphones I think.  This is my desktop set up at home and the music is on my laptop.   So I know that the AKG...

Hey everyone. I'm new here and in need of advice! Here are my needs for a pair of cans... £250 or under Listen to most music genres. Mainly rock/ classic rock but also acoustic etc. Closed cans Good noise isolation Use with an iPod touch on the go Recommendations would be great. Luke

I just came across Head-Fi today and have spent my entire night reading the sight.  I have a couple on long flights coming up soon (one on Friday) and wanted to get a set of headphones to replace my Bose QC2 - I only used them on airplanes and got them for the noise cancelling feature.  ...

I like them, but I find them so uncomfortable. My next preference is the T1, but sometimes I wish maybe it showed up the noise of old recordings less, which the LCD2 is very good at. The comfort of the T1 is exceptional and the bass is still good. But is there anything even more like the LCD2...

Hi everyone I was just wondering if I should trade my Mad Dogs with the comfort strap and Dog Pads for the HE-400s.   Other suggestions are welcome although I already have a few;   D2k/D5k HD650 Pro 900   Thanks!

I've been looking for some new headphones, (I believe the type I want are called "cans") I've done some studying and closed back would better serve my needs. I'd like to keep the price at about $400 or less. i listen to mostly rock, rap, and pop, and i do enjoy a nice bass sound. right now i...

I know i know, but I need a cable sooner rather than later, and i'd like it to be 90deg and fit the MrSpeakers MadDog. Will this be fine? I realize cables are a topic like religion, but are these going to seriously degrade performance vs. the stock Mad Dogs cable?  ...

Does anyone have a Mad Dog T50RP I could borrow for a few days? I'm curious but would love to try one out first. If you're in Japan and are willing to lend it to me, I'm happy to pay shipping costs both ways :)

I am looking for very good build quality and high quality bass and mid tones.  This will be my new pair for electronic music, classical, hip-hop etc...   I also need them to be closed.

So i've been looking to get a new pair of office cans. I'm extremely curious about the planar driver, and would really like to try these out. I will be using these in an office environment, where I have people sitting about 4-5 feet away. I know these are open-back headphones so their isolation...

My budget is 500 dollars. I'm looking for a closed headphone with good isolation for both music and gaming. I listen to rock and metal bands suh as metallica, nirvana, guns and roses, green day, etc. There are things which are crucial to me:   1. I want it to have good mids and a very full...

Hello, I am looking for a new set of headphones in the $100-$200 range.  I am pretty new to higher end headphones and all the audio stuff.  I have been looking around and reading reviews and have found that the most recommended one are the ATH-M50.  I listen to all types of music but I most...

I'm looking to purchase a new headphone and I'm tempted by the Ultrasone edition 8. It is also expensive but I have no issues with that if it's going to have great quality. Question I have is how much better is the sound quality to something that's lower in price? Is the jump in sound quality...
