Hi guys, to quickly introduce myself, I am quite new to the whole audiophile world. I don't consider myself as one, just a person who likes products that fulfill my needs and give the best quality for the money (Since nowadays, you wanna save a penny if you can).   Now, before I start, I'd...

I am in the market to but a new set of headphones for on the go. They will be mainly used on a college campus, not that it matters but it might. I have been searching this forum franticly trying to learn as much information as I can about portable sets. I have almost pulled the trigger and...

Hi all, i need some advise, I've recently purchased 2 pairs of ADDIEM from ebay from reputable sellers with good feedback (including 7Dime), but it seems both have the same problem. though apple says that the remote feature skip/reverse function by doubletapping the remote buttons, each pair...

I have a mini home studio recording. I mainly record karaoke covers using karaoke backing tracks and some acoustic guitar covers. I use a Behringer 1202FX mixer, AKG Perception 420 multi-pattern studio condenser mic, Boss Pro CL-50 compressor/limiter/gate connected to a desktop using a Creative...

First, I want to thank Phiaton for the review sample. As a headphone brand, Phiaton is relatively new to the scene. But as a company, it has a rather long history. Phiaton was setup by Cresyn Korea in 2008 as an initiative to launch its own high end headphone line. Up to that point, Cresyn...

So for me comfort, noise isolation, and durability is important. I look for really good bass. i listen to house, rap, hip hop, and trance. My budget is around $100. Also I know that the dre's are bad but please offer me headphones that will be able to beat the dre's hahahha because like 10 of my...

First, I'll like to thank SoundMAGIC for the samples.   It has been quite some time since SoundMAGIC last major IEM release (of PL50 and PL21), but they have continue to make minor improvement over their older lineup, became OEM supplier to major Western headphone brand, and even released a...

Thinking about getting the Nixon Whips, wicked sick looking headphones.  My main question is are they better than the Ipod stock headphones??  Those are really the only headphones ive ever used.  Also, are there any headphones similiar to the Whips (around $50) that are better??

I am very interested in the PX100's but they leak a bit at high volume from what I have seen. I do not want in ear headphones because they are uncomfortable after a while, and I'd like to stay away from over ear headphones unless they are very portable and comfy. Anything close to the PX100's in...

My ES7 cable got ripped out of the y-split today and I'm not sure that it's something I can fix myself. I'm looking for an affordable re-cabling. I considered the Enyo cable from Null Audio but I'm not sure if it's worth the money. Any recommendations are appreciated. 

Deciding whether to get these or Bose AE2's. Im aware that there is a lot of hatred for bose on head fi but the thing that really appeals for me is there comfort. Opinions on Klipsch Image One or Bose? Thanks in advance for the help :)

80% use with my PC (Creative Titanium X-Fi Sound card) - Games and Music 20% use with my Harmon Kardan AVR225 Receiver - Games and Movies. 0% use with portable audio products (MP3 players, iPad, laptop etc)   Considering: Beyer Dynamic DT 800 32OHM Sennheiser HD 650 (very much...

I was originally going to buy the coiled version since I /really/ don't want to hold 11 feet of wire in my hand while running several miles but I heard that the coil REALLY weighs you down significantly. Which one should I buy?

Those who use use the iPod/iPhone for portable music are probably aware of the Incase name who is popular for designing nice cases. I wonder if they will put as much effort/quality into the sound as much as they do aesthetically. Any thoughts?   http://goincase.com/audio/ (more images)  ...

Might anyone be so kind as to give me a recommendation of a sealed headphone with flat frequency response under $100 for recording studio use?

Ive been posting scattered comments about my KSC75 mods across several threads. I thought some of you might appreciate a more consolidated summary. Another forum member stated the idea is to "buy low... mod high". Thats basically all that this is. Hope some of you find this useful. Carefully...

Looking for a good choice for a sealed headphone. I have been listening to a pair of Grado SR60 headphones. I would like some sealed 'phones as I find myself in public/traveling frequently and the leakage is an issue. I primarily listen to classical music - vocal. I listen through an iPod...

...and they actually weren't bad at all.  In fact, I was surprised at how (relatively) nice and punchy the bass was.  Definitely not as bass light as I remember them to be.  Of course they were still a bit muddy and harsh, perhaps somewhat boomy relative to nicer IEMs (never tried high-end...

Hi, I'm sure you get countless threads like this here but it seems like the best place for advice   I'm looking for my first pair of on/over ear headphones, but have only about £60-80 to spend on them (I'd put that into $ but exchange rates and rates of competition between stores seem to...

I am in the market to replace my IEMs UE Triple.fi with something that is over the ear but has comparable sound.   They will primarily be used in the gym, travel and in the library (so sound isolation and minimal leakage is key criteria)   I am looking to spend no more than $250 on the...

Hi everyone! I just need some quick advice as I've been searching the internet for reviews of on/around the ear headphones (preferrably noise cancelling), which cost NO greater than $300, that look stylish and I'm stumped. EVERY set I come across has its' negative reviews and they are almost ALL...

Hi, I'm new here and after some new headphones for my iPod, but i need to fit them in my work bag so they need to fold as flat and small as possible, but I would like them to be closed and isolate as much as possible.   I was about to go out and buy some Bose OE, but when I noticed that...

Are these an open backed or closed-backed headphone? I'm in the hong kong area at the moment - anyone know where they might be available here?  

.I'm looking for the 3.5mm to 1/4" stereo adapter that screws on, the headphone jack on the cords of my headphones is 3.5mm with the threads for screwing on the 1/4' adapter.
