I'm new to the audiophile world. I've been looking into getting a good pair of headphones. I really like the v modas, but idk if they're right for me. I intend to wear my headphones for long periods of time. I don't like too much bass, it gives me a headache. I'd like then to be able to play the...

Has anyone heard this?  

Hi, I haven't ever had any even semi-nice headphones before and am looking to buy some. My cousin got a pair of beats mixr for Christmas and I thought they sounded really good. Then again the nicest headphones I've had probably cost $15. It sounds like those aren't really highly regarded around...

Hey guys I'm new to this site and have little experience in quality headphones but am wanting to change that. I listen to a broad range of music but I'd say the majority of what I listen to is alternative. My favorite band is Radiohead followed by Muse. I'm looking for headphones that I can wear...

I recently purchased a pair of Phiaton MS 300 headphones based on a Head-Fi recommendation (which, incidentally, sound great until the plastic breaks next to the cup, both on the original and the replacement pair!). Upon hearing them, my dad, who listens to music constantly, decided to replace...

Sorry for blabbering, in advance.    My journey into audio started 2 years ago when I was a Senior in high school. My iPod earbuds were dying after 2 years and that was when I decided to look for a replacement. I opted for some cheap Skullcandies as people in high school thought they were...

Hey, I have a few questions about the AiAiAi TMA-1's.   Im looking for headphones, and I really want the AiAiAi TMA-1, but want to know a little more before I decide whether to buy them. First off, how comfortable are they? I want to be wearing them for 2+ hours at a time. How do they...

I am deciding between these two. I really like the way the Image Ones sound at best buy through my S:Flo2, but I can't use them through this player. The iPod functionality makes music sound like a karaoke track unless the middle "call receive" button is held in.   The Phiaton's have a...

1st I know what you are thinking skullcandys? pssshhhh yeah right... well they actually sound very good the bass is pretty bad but the mids, vocals, and treble is shockingly amazing.   Here is what I want- Hard hitting thumpy bass in ~100 hz area and good clear forward mids and detailed but...

I am looking into buying quality pair of headphones for portable use. I travel and weight lift a lot, which would be the primary use of the headphones. After several hours of researching and reading reviews on Head-fi I think I have narrowed down my selections to the following group:  ...

Im pretty much a newbie this stuff and initially wanted to get a pair of Dr Dre HD Solos until I did some reasearch and found this forum.   I have done some searching on the forum and have not found what the difference is between the MS300 and MS400. I wanted to go for the MS300 since they...

I have a $300 gift card for Best Buy and I'm looking at getting a nice set of headphone.  I have it narrowed down to 4 options; Phiaton MS 300, Phiaton MS 400, Bose OE, and Sennheiser HD 25 originals.  My top two are the Bose OEs and the Phiaton MS 300 because of their size and portability. I...

Ive recently joined head-fi but ive been using the forum for about a year now. After tons and tons of research i still am unsure about which headphones to get, heres my criteria:   -under $150 -good for ipod use -on or around ear headphones -closed-back -i am a bass head, but i dont...

I'm really interested in purchasing a pair. I've read some reviews and they look to be pretty nice. I know the bass isn't fantastic, but is it at least decent? I don't listen to very bass-heavy music. The moss bass-intense thing I do is gaming, so I would like a decent bass sound for that, but...

Hello, this is my first time posting, but I've been lurking for a while now.  This forum is what convinced me to get my SR60i and RE0 so thanks for that (esp. |joker| as his IEM comparo was what convinced me to get the RE0).   So I decided to drop $135 tonight to get the Phiaton MS 300 for a...

Hey, I'm pretty new to the whole audiophile thing, so I apologize if I sound a little clueless sometimes... Anyway, my friend and I got a pair of Grado SR80is and Audio Technica M50s, respectively, and after having listened to both, I was wondering if there was a pair of closed headphones that...

Hello forum go-ers :D! I'm a newbie so go easy on me if I'm short on knowledge. I plan on purchasing a Phiaton Ms 300 sometime soon for my computer and on the go purposes. I'll mostly be using it on the computer, and was thinking about getting a sound card, only to realize that my computer is...

            Hi guys, this is my first post! (Just signed up)   I’ve read through these forums many times though. So I’m in the market for some headphones and after scouring through many posts on this excellent forum I still haven’t been able to decide on the right set of...

I have a pair of Sennheiser HD555 and a pair of Audio Technica ATH-A700, but I'm looking for something closed that's extremely portable. I don't want another pair of IEMs, I'm looking for on-ear/around-ear. The two i'm looking between are the Phiaton MS 300 and the AKG K450. I don't know which...

Well after an angry adventure with UPS and customs, look at what I've got sitting in front of me...     Gorgeous packaging: MS 300 & PS 500   side by side: MS 300, PS 500 (note the huge size difference)   side by side (front view): PS 500, MS 300   side by side: PS...

Discuss!! But seriously, I'm looking for a pair of phones that completely engulf my ear, have soft, comfortable pads and are very lightweight. All recommendations are highly appreciated, as I'm looking to make a quick purchase. I like the look/feel of the senn 228's, but i hear their sound...

Hey all,   I'm a green-horn when it comes to hi-end headphones, I thought that full-blown amplifiers and speakers were the only way to enjoy music in all it's splendor. So I came across Beats by Dr.Dre Solo (in an Apple store) and I was blown away by the quality of music that came out of...

Hey,   I've been pretty interested in joining the community for a while and there's no time like the present eh?   I've purchased a few decent headphones but I'm interested in making this a pretty big thing in the next few years Sooooooooo I just wanted to ask around If you guys...

Hi guys First post, go easy! Apologies if this is in the wrong section   I've been scouring this wonderful forum for idea's as to which closed back, on ear phones to buy   I have a strict budget of $200 and from what I can gather, the PS320 or MS300 seem to fit my needs exactly  ...
