Dear all, I want to present to you a great all-rounder - the Philips Fidelio L1: lively, clear and well-balanced with a warm tilt. Yes, you read correctly. A Philips - the Dutch company that buries you with LED lamp search results when you ask Google. A brand that never was mentioned...

Hi ,after i heard several times, i am hardly find differents between q701 & d2000 running on MBP and MBP usb with U2.   is this means that i need to have a much better DAC  combo such as lavry DA11 or a nice amp such as solo to get better sound experiences?    

Im looking for some new headphones and i want an opinion on headphones that are better than Beats pro but not as expensive. I listen to alot of hard rock and dubstep so i want strong bass. I have desktop amps as well as portable amps but i really dont want to spend more than $350.:)

I love my HD580s, but on some types of music (metal and rock mainly, trance already sounds good in the HD580), they lack some excitement.  I am looking for something to compliment them for these genres.  I do not want huge amounts of bass, but something a little more than the HD580 and a very...

Hello all. I'm new to this forum and hoping to be a part of the community!   So...My JVC HA RX700's broke a few days ago. Actually, the right ear broke, I can only hear sound coming from the left ear. I figured this would be a golden opportunity to get a new pair of headphones.   I was...

Long time reader, first time poster here. I'm in the market for a new set of cans, and over the past month or so I have narrowed it down to the Beyer DT 770 Pro's (I think).  This is because of the following criteria: closed can little to no sound leakage comfortable enough to listen to for...

I've been tired of going through multiple ear buds. I've gone through Panasonic, Sony, and various other brands that I can't even begin to list. Simply put, it just feels soo useless to go through that many ear buds once more. I've started reading about a few days ago and came across this forum...

I have a pair of Palladium Edition 8's with Moon-Audio Silver Dragon V3 cable.  I was thinking about selling them, Sound is good, fit isn't perfect.  I was talking with a friend about it.  He's a jeweler.  He said if they have palladium cups I should recycle them.  He said his jewelry store...

I was curious as to how different genres are affected by different qualities in headphones. I've read a lot in the past few days about bass, mids, highs. I don't know what this stuff means in terms of instrumentation.    The reason I ask is because I am considering buying a new set of...

Seems like the OEM manufacturer is getting a lot of use out of this housing. It is also used for the Incipio NX-100 F38. The question is how much different is the driver in this versus the other headphones. Their cheap enough that maybe someone wants to compare...

I've been using the XB500s for quite a while now as a lot of other electronic lovers on a budget have been doing, lately I've gotten a bit of a bonus and want to treat myself to a new pair. The XB1000s look right up my street, comfortable and good looking, however there isn't a whole lot of...

Hello, I just recently picked up a pair of AKG 240s and have so far been very pleased. I enjoy the comfort and sound of the headphones. They're much more comfortable than my old MDR-V700's and sound better as well. I listen to mostly classical and folk. Bass is fairly impressive on some songs...

I got a pair of beyerdynamic dt770 pro 250OHM headphones for christmas. If you didn't know already they have a coiled cable. They have recently become broken. They constantly make a static kind of noise and I found if I move the cable it goes away or one of the ears stops working. They didn't...

Gday Guys,   First of all, I've been a long time lurker here, and used these forums as a main source of information regarding headphones that I have purchased in the past. I have owned a fair few headphones, from the cheap $50 headsets you pick up from EB Games, to "gaming headsets" and to...

I was about to take the plunge this weekend on the M80, but read that V-Moda will be releasing an M100 (M80 sound, LP2 form factor) soon.  I like the sound of the M80, but prefer the over the ear feel of the LP2......    If V-Moda is going to release them soon (next couple of months), I will...
