Hello to all,   This is my first post on this forum and as my name says, I'm listening to flat portable music gear: an iPod classic 120 with standard white earphones from the box. I want to do something about it, but first I need some expert advice. Let me explain:   I'm an audiophile...

Hi, long time lurker, first time poster here. Just splodged an outrageous amount of cash on phones and thought my experience might help other newbies. This might ramble a bit, so I'll apologise in advance.   Before getting into the kit, this is the first time I've ever gone all-out on...

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

A rather odd question, but i've seen threads that ask the same for Tool and The Mars Volta   I wanted to get the Amperiors, but when asked how they sound on it someone said they sounded flat. I've noticed Godspeed's production ranges from ok to downright horrible so it's hard to find a phone...

Also I think the Momentums would be better  with relaxing music, however i hear that they're rather slow. So are they still ok for rock music and won't make it sound boring, ie make me wanna jam to bands like at the drive in. But my main question is of warmth and musicality since I don't listen...

Hi,   I am seeking an iPhone remote control extension cable that I can substitute for my HD25-I ii.  If I could obtain one, is the Amperior's iphone remote easily substitutable?   Any ideas where I can buy the right accessory?

I mostly listen through my PC using Itunes (aac)>dragonfly>o2 amp> to my q701's, I'm just looking for a second headphone to complement them I mostly listen to rock,metal,drums and bass and indie some house( I also enjoy experimental bands)... I really enjoy my q701's for the soundstage clarity...

i know ie80 and the other two choices are a bit different, but i'm having trouble making a choice between them (although prefer headphones than IEMs, i'm not counting this in for the choice i am about to make)   the music i mainly listen to are Progressive Metal (Dream Theater) 80s...

I´m looking for the most comfortable headphone. A headphone that you can practically use all day long!! A headphone that when you put it in your head you only feel PLEASURE .    Post the headphone you think would win the title of the MOST COMFORTABLE. 

I'm looking to upgrade from my Bose On-Ear Headphones to something better.    I mostly listen to Progressive House and Electronic music but also to pop, rock, R'n'b and hip hop, as well as some blues on the odd occasion.   My first thought was to go for the HD 25's but could I justify...

Liked the Ultrasone ed.8 and used them mostly for travelling, connected to a Mac or iPad. Great sound isolation - was able to use them at high volume inside a plane on a night flight without any complains from the other passengers.   Ended up leaving them on a plane :-(   What should I...

...and in my opinion, the Amperiors were the superior headphone. The Amperiors isolation, comfort, and overall versatility gave me that awesome lost-in-the-music feeling, and the 100 people standing among me in the Apple store seemed to fade away. Thing is, I wish the Amperiors weren't so good...

I've searched around for an answer to this question, and didn't quite find anything.   I'm looking for very durable headphones. I would consider headphones with non-neutral sounds, but I prefer neutrality. I'm willing to spend $300, or perhaps more if I can be persuaded by a particularly...

Hey I been looking into what headphones to get for the past week and have been very VERY indecisive about my situation.   My Specifications First, off i am still open for either an on or over ear headphone (heading towards the over ear) Second, and quality just for bass. A lot of house...

I'm not really sure if this needs an amp. Yet it is 70 ohlms if it does need an amp what would be good under $100 that could be used portably.

Basically I want something decent, for around £250 or less (think around 400$?) for rap, hip hop and DnB. With good bass, and just clear. I have no experience with headphones or sounds so don't knock me for my lack of knowledge haha! Listened to Beats and thought they were okay but not for the...

To compete in the premium-priced (>$100) segment of the headphone world--where Beats enjoys over half the market share--untold numbers of headphone makers have attempted to sell Beats-inspired headphones, some even more than just inspired, looking like outright clones. Others, however, have...

I have big dilemma between those 2 headphones, I hear music like metal,rock,country,classic (mainly Metal)  and i have seen this review: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aahpv0_DDFE   that say the hd25 1-ii is more for pop-rock,electro so i pass it and planned to buy the dt1350,  and now...

I'm off to uni in a week, and leaving my M50s for my sister.   Time for new cans.   Use: Music in dorm room, while studying - so isolation from the outside world is a must.   Music ranges from Radiohead to Deadmau5 and Miles Davis, all FLAC.   The HD650s caught my eye as bang for...

Hi,   I am taking a 10 day trip across the country. I definimtely will need headphones on the plane and also for use on a 2 hour bus ride between NYC and Philly. Other than that, I may use headphones in NYC but probably not that often since I will usually be with a friend (and don't want to...

Hi there my headfier friends... :)   Here i am once again with one of those difficult choices so lets just get straight to the point...   A year ago these three portable headphones costed 300 euros each.... Now i can buy them for 160 euros euros each....   So here are the contenders....  ...

Ok, this actually isn't for me, but for my girlfriend.  She currently has Sennheiser HD239s, which is happy with sound wise, but now she's started commuting by train, at least a couple of hours a day, and obviously they let a lot of noise in and out, and are far from ideal for that.  She also...

Does the Amperior fit on the HD 25 1-ii? I would like to use the HD 25 1-ii with the Amperior cabling because the original cable is too stiff and not very portable friendly for that reason. They look very similar and to be honest, the construction is practically the same pair of headphones with...

I've been diagnosed with Labyrinthitis, which means I'm off IEM's permanently. Short version: Nothing is going into my ears for the next couple of years.   What I need is a pair of portable headphones, that will make me forget how much I'm gonna miss my Westone 4's. I listen to electronic...

New the the community and am in need of some advice on what to do.   My daughter just had a birthday and received a pair of Dre's Beats.  My wife being generous purchased a pair for me as well.  She bought them at Best Buy based on the salesperson's advice.  See how my daughter is happy an...
