Hello all, please direct me if this is in the incorrect spot. I will soon be traveling long hours on planes so I am thinking of picking up a closed back headphone. Comfort is a big factor here. I am currently looking at Mr Speakers Mad Dog and will drive it with an e11. Any suggestions...

I'm looking for some good portable headphones and I came down to:   Phiaton MS 400 - AIAIAI TMA-1 - Audio Technica ESW9/A   So which one do you think is better and would be a better fit for the type of music I listens to?

Hey, I'm getting the HD25's soon and was wondering is their really a BIG difference between the cable's? I read that they three are interchangeable on all of them I'm not looking into cardos or anything spendy but like a stock 650 cable is it's copper quality better than the stock HD25's?  

Down to 3 choices for running headphones (will use them on trips etc also)   1) Sennheiser HD25-1 II 2) Sennheiser PX200-II 3) Grado SR60i   I am really wondering if the HD25-1 II are suitable at all to run in and if I should get the PX200-II instead.   IEM are not an option, and I...

I bought myself the hd25 a few weeks ago and I haven't been able to find any mods for it (other than recable). Tastefull Eye: HD25-mod The only thing I saw was this page in japanese, but google translation wasn't too clear about what to do. Can anyone help?

My main question is what are the most effective noise-cancelling headphones that are as loud or louder than the Senheiser PXC-250? I'm currently a grad student and I live in a relatively loud environment. I ususally study to music, but can't do it when there are other sounds around me...

So, as many of you undoubtedly know, Senns, although wonderful in every other way, are extremely sibilant. I know, everyone is going to say "get the HD 650 cable"   Is that the best way to get a general improvement in the sibilance? Oh, and while I'm at it, what else might I do to improve the...

Hello,   I'm new to this site.  My ATH-M50s were recently taken and I'm seeking a new set of all-purpose cans that can take some abuse as I travel a fair bit.  They'll be used primarily for some keyboard work (Yamaha P200 ) and music play-back.  Open cans are not an option.  I had been...

As in places that repaint and do cosmetic changes to well-known headphones.  I don't mean the headphile kind, who specialize in woodies and $300+ headphones.  I mean something to wear on the streets.   http://www.customcans.co.uk/ is a good example, but they are not taking orders for a...

Is there such an animal? Ideally I'd like to use my Android (Captivate) while traveling. I am in the air at least 20 hours a week, and like most freq- fliers, I would obviously prefer a closed 'phone, but will consider open as well. I do as much listening in the airport clubs as I do on the...

So i have recently been into the HD audio scene. I currently have a set of the Bose QC2 and QC3 headphones (gifts from grandma). But i know i can do better. So i have had a growing interest in other HD sets mainly Grado and Sennheiser. But i have a few questions regarding things i have seen/read...

So I just got my ES10s today, a complement to my ESW9s, but more for rock.   Wow, that was no joke about the deep and punchy bass.  It just kicks my ears coming out of my tube amp.     Mids are definitely more recessed compared to my woodies, but it's still very liquid smooth.     Highs are...

I've been looking at some of the closed headphones that are popular throughout this forum, and was wondering if there is any headphone model that is preferred for professional practical work, such as a sound technician in a music studio or on location at a filmproduction?   I assume this...

Well here's go's with my plight, I'm after everything source, amp, all cables, to feed these can's what they deserve. I listen to soft rock, electronic & pop.  I know these cans are awesome as they are, my wish is to gain a little more separation from them and tighten that fat bass a little...

Hey guys,   Just a quick question. I'm looking for a portable headphone to compliment my Ultrasone Pro 750s. I've searched a bit and it seems that the TMA-1 and HD 25-1 ii seem a good bet. I'm just wondering, for those who have heard the Pro 750s, which of the TMA and 25-1 are more like the...

Hi all, i want to buy the HD 25 ADIDAS, but before that i want to ask u guys if the quality of headphones is exactly the same that the traditionals HD 25. Let me know what u think please...

Like I mention in this thread (http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/540138/headphones-with-detachable-wire#post_7284248)   I'm looking for a set of headphones that meet my criteria and I was wondering where the best places to try these products in Montreal? The best buys and future shops here...

I like to ask suggestions to replace my old headphones. I want to use for an ipod without amps and looking for around ear and closed type. I prefer bright overall and clean (light) bass. I believe around $400 is far enough for headphones for without amps. Thank you!!!

Hey,     New to the forum, and really new to the world of headphones.  I currently am using a set of Grado sr80i's on a laptop. I really don't use them with anything else..although i may soon. So having said that, i would like to find something that will work with a computer, and then...

If you guys can mix certain qualities of different headphones and put them together to form what you think is the perfect headphone, What qualities from which headphones would you put together?   For me it would be The looks and size of the phiaton ms400:   The isolation of the...

I'm going to Beijing for vacation tomorrow, and I was planning to bring my ER4P and XB700 with me. I thought that the XBs could keep my ears warm while I listen to music :P   Would they die in Beijing? The temperature would be below 0C   Oh and, thanks(:

I found a few thread with this topic on here. And most people as you would except say that you should not use your headphones in bad (=wet) weather. I agree that water and electronics are not the best combination. That said, obviously you shouldnt go swimming or snowboarding with your high...

Curse you, Head-fi... there it is, the wish for something better.   I own a pair of HD25s which so far have been really rewarding, but i find them somewhat lacking in mid- to high-range. They sound...somewhat muffled, veiled, I lack the vocabulary to describe it. I like the K701, but do not...

    Im looking to get into dj' ing and want to get a good set of headphones under $150.  Im also on planning on wearing these in the street and on the subway so I want headphones that I can wear out there and get good sound.
