Hey all,   For the past week or so I've been on Head-fi trying to get recommendations for various different headphones for under 300.    The users of Head-Fi were nice enough to give me several suggestions, and today I was able to get myself down to Bay and Bloor Radio in Toronto to test...

I am helping a friend find a good set of headphones for kinda-sorta regular use. She's willing to cash out some alright money for these, no cheapout, and her only limitation is that she doesn't want a big set of headphones. So far i've mostly looked at Sennheiser, because i have good...

So i am a Bass lover and between those 3 headphones, which one is the ** Bassest** (the one who has more bass).   Cause i am sure that the 3 have a good sound quality i have no doubt about it, So i was hesitating and i said to myself :  - If i know that they all have a good sound quality...

I'm looking to get some closed back headphones for my work, where I sit next to someone in a small office and the HD650s I have are no longer appropriate.  I have come to love the HD650s (when amped) and have tried IEMs (tried UEs, Shures and W4s), but just can't listen for hours to them because...

I'm a noob, so excuse me. If i'm gonna buy studio headphones, do i want them to be perfectly flat? I'm gonna be using them to make Electronic/Dubstep. If they aren't flat, i'll mix the songs incorrectly, right? On that note, any recommendations for said headphones? Looking to spend no more than...

Hi Guys and any gals who frequent these superb forums,a very quick question,do either the Audio Technica ATH M50 or the Sennheiser HD380/280 Pro series headphones require amplification with an Ipod Touch?I have had a vast disappointment with some Shure and KRK headphones where the sound is flat...

Hi Head-Fi,   I saw this nifty old CD player (NEC Multipsin 6x) which I've done some research on it and it seems like a really cheap introduction into a audiophile grade setup. And before you say I don't need this as a source, I realize this, but I don't want to be tethered to my 3x3x1.5 foot...

I am new to the whole headphone game. I came across this site last week and have been looking since. I have been to BB and heard the Studios. I like the base. So since I have heard different things about them I asked my friend if he knew anything as good or better for $300. He said look at...

ok so i have the hd 380s for about a week now and i just find them lacking its a hollow type of sound that has no life, they work good for music but for movies they just sound odd and when gaming some stuff sounds good but like movies people voices just sound off and lacking and i just cant get...

Best money I've ever spent on headphones and my ears are in heaven, but I hate this cable! Has anyone changed the cable on your HD 380 Pro? This thing is heavy! A non coily cable would rule. I worry if I am not super careful I could damage the jack on either my laptop or iPod ya know? Thanks in...

I need a new pair of closed, circum-aural headphones for car travel, and I've been searching these forums and found several interesting headphones - I'm just not sure which would meet my requirements:   Good passive noise-isolation Good comfort with glasses Preferably useable without an...

Hi all,   I'm looking for a pair of headphones to replace my (lost) Sennheiser HD449s - while I was a big fan of those I'd like to try something different, and maybe a step up in quality.   I'm looking for a sturdy around-ear, closed-back pair, with little noise leakage. I do a fair...

Greetings!   I recently picked up a V-Can Mk I for late night listening and am curious what folks here have found to be a good match for this amp.  Because sound leakage is an issue, I need a closed back can.  My preference is for a neutral and accurate response across the audio band, but...

Hi there, I tried looking through the forums, but I couldn't find anything that addressed all the issues I have. I wouldn't call myself an audiophile; I don't really know any of the proper terms to describe what I'm looking for but I'll do my best. I currently have a pair of Bose...

Hello fellow head fiers, I am thinking of purchasing the sennheiser hd380 pro headphones. I found a place with a nice price and I am looking forward to buying them. But as usual there is a catch, they have coiled cable....I dont hate coiled cable i just dont really like it. So since isaw these...

Dear all   I'm a music producer and have recently started using the wonderful NanoStudio on my iPhone 3GS. I'm looking for a pair of headphones with the following features:   Excellent sound quality Excellent ambient noise attenuation 3.5mm jack connector Low impedance  ...

Both of these get very good reviews, except on test freaks the 380 is rated much higher. im wondering which to buy, im upgrading from the rubbish sony mdr v700 dj's. im going to use them in my laptop and will be using an amp i think. the only thing i care about is comfort which i would like, and...

Oh boy guys, I am overwhelmed! I've been sifting through posts here for the last 5 days and becoming more and more indecisive. I'm new here and am really enjoying the threads. Thank you all. I'm a film editor with a somewhat unique situation. I work on an older Avid Media Composer with a...

                 

Hello Gents, I've been browsing a bunch of headphones and have frankly, been quite frustrated in my search. This site has been enormously helpful, but I figured starting a thread on my issue would help others who are looking for what I am looking for. I can't be the only one, :). I am...

I'm looking to get myself some nicer headphones, but really all the choices are just overwhelming. I was suspiciously enough to look past the Beats, and rightfully so, apparently. I've been looking at the Sennheisers as it seems like only good things are said about them, but I'm not really sure...

I am in the market to but a new set of headphones for on the go. They will be mainly used on a college campus, not that it matters but it might. I have been searching this forum franticly trying to learn as much information as I can about portable sets. I have almost pulled the trigger and...

It seems that the latest and wireless Astro MixAmp '5.8' doesn't support an RCA connection which is what I need for surround sound headphone gaming for the Wii since the Wii is compatible with Optical or HDMI. The older None-wireless Astro mix Amp does in fact support RCA but i can't seem to...

Now I consider myself a pretty big gamer, have been since the 80's with my Nes. You could say I'm a bit of a Nintendo nut job for the most part. lol And I absolutely love playing the Wii on my 5.1 Surround Sound system...Sure the Wii may only pump out Dolby Pro Logic II, but it's still sounds...

Hi.   What do you think about closed Sennheiser's. Which one are the best?   Senn or not Senn? I'm lost :P xD   Thanks.
