I need some thoughts on what headphones take advantage of the headstage arrow 4g's power. I already have some ue 6000 and they're awesome. My budget is right around 200 or leas

So you know the score.....you've got your rig at home, you've your source and collection sorted....and what with location/portability not being an issue, all is fine and dandy.  But what if...    you gave it all up, quit the rat race and went round the world for 8 months?  What would you...

Hi there. Looking for a set of headphones that is good for a wide range of rock music (acdc, Marilyn manson, slipknot etc.) pricerange 150-250 $

Hi, currently use an UE900 for my portable music needs & also have a Sony XB-300 for home listening. I'm considering getting a pair of Sennheiser HD 25-1 II for home/office use as I prefer to use headphones at home rather than iems. I don't use the XB300 much because while it does provide plenty...

Hi all, My brother is looking for one and has asked me for a a recommendation. I've been out of the loop for quite a while and never even looked at phones with this criteria. He has been using a senn cx-300 (I hope I spelled that right) and was also happy with the hd-25 (cable failure...

I have been doing a lot of research into MUSIC (yes! all kinds....all formats...best players...best earphones...best headphones). I came across these three pairs of headphones to go with my new Cowon C2 player: 1. Audio Technica ATH-M50 2. Sennheiser HD 25-1 II 3. Shure SRH840   I...

I've got a set of Sennheiser HD25-1 II incoming and I'm thinking about recabling them. Would like a copper cable instead of the steel stock cable they come with. The easy (and pretty cheap) solution would be to just buy a HD-600 cable and plug that in, but I like the single-side cabel entry of...

A half year ago I got a pair of Sentry head phones. And quickly discovered they have too much base for my cheap CD player, but they work OK for my Sansa fuse.   Then a month ago I discovered they have a switch inside the speaker pods; one side is very difficult to keep on. But with out the...

Does ALO make a cable for the Sennheiser HD25-1 II? I would love to get one...

Dear All   I purchased an XM5 a couple years ago and I chose AD8397 Double Cat plus cooper bushbars as my standard set up. It was in my drawer for quiet a while till now. I have more time now and would like to get back to listening to my fav music. I bought Sennheiser HD25-1 II recently and...

..hold your peace.    I'm looking to buy a portable pair of headphones since it's winter now where I am and using IEMs is similar to stuffing icy water into my ear canals. On top of being my portable choice during cold days, I would also need to use it sometimes at night so my speakers...

hi all, just want to ask...   I see the seller on ebay selling HD 25 for cheat $200, could that be fake?   http://cgi.ebay.com/Sennheiser-HD-25-1-ii-HD25-25-1-Studio-Headphones-/390323862990?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5ae11d7dce   if there is no fake sennheiser HD 25 1-II, i'll...

I'm planning to buy a sennheiser hd25-1 II soon, but I think they look a bit dull. So what I want to do, I want to buy this cable and matching red earpads, just as it looks in the photo. The text also says:   'Here it is! After the colored ear pad sets there finally we have also the new red...

Hey :) Nowadays, my listening is happening mostly at the gym. I listen to lots of fast and complex rock/metal so I need a certain fastness to my phones - also, I can't bring a portable amp as I would probably sooner or later break it... I loved my Shure E4 for this, but they broke. I got the...

I recently got a hd25-1. I know that it does not benefit much from an amp but I've had offers for PA2V2(less than $60) and AMB Mini3($70). I am wondering how my headphones will pair with both amps. I am currently using an  iPod 4th gen. Thanks!

  Here you go football loving audiophiles    For anyone following football you certainly know Arsenal FC football star Samir Nasri     During New York Red Bulls v Paris St Germain - Emirates Cup         I already like this guy   

I was wondering if anyone on headfi painted thier HD25-1 ii to have a more customized look. I'm thinking that I should give them a light sanding, some primer, a coat of paint, and a clear coat. Or should I just spray them and skip the prep work. Anyone with experience with this ? 

Hey fellow head-fiers, as the title states: what is the difference between the both of them? Besides the price and that the HD25's are older? Do they have a significant difference in SQ? Thank you.

Hi. Thought this might be useful to some people. A quick vid to show how to fully dismantle the HD25-1       I Know the HD 25s are designed so that every part is user serviceable but I also know a lot of people are still scared of pulling them apart. So here is a guide with lots of...

I use my HD25-1s for pretty much all music. On my home system, my headphones sound a lot better with my amp my father bought me, the bass is deeper and rich, the soundstage is a lot better etc. (I have no clue what brand it is.) My budget is 120 dollars, I was thinking the ZO, the pa2v2, or the...

Has anyone tried, or know where to buy replacement HD25 Adidas parts? I'd like to know if you can purchase the blue earpads, blue cable, and blue headband cushions and attach them to the normal HD25.

i'm looking for a portable pair of on-the-ear headphones for use with my ipod and laptop, tried out the P5 at the apple store but havent been able to try out the others (Audio Technica ATHESW9A, Beyerdynamic T50p, Sennheiser HD25-1 II) i do own the following: Audio Technica ATH-M50, Grado...

doesn't seem to be a lot of legit looking places to buy these particular cans, the amazon page seems kinda shady with very few reviews and they don't seem to be the mark ii version, other than the adidas page being 50 dollars more than the non adidas version, are there any commonly chosen place...

Hello,   I'm looking for a hard case for my new HD25 headphones. I was looking at the Sennheiser's own hard case. Anyobody have experience with that case? Or there's some better choices out there?   Thanks   Sennheiser's carrying case...
