In looking for a budget headphone, and knowing Sennheiser recently updated its 200 and 400 lines, I thought I'd take advantage of Best Buy's current sale on the new HD 419's, the lowest model, for $40.     I am no expert and don't usually write reviews, but because there is nothing written...

My apology if this is in the wrong section or what have you. (After all, this is my first thread!)   Awhile back, I actually traded my Sennheiser HD 439's for a pair old Monster Beats by Dre Pro's. You may be thinking, Sennheiser is obviously much better then a rusty old pair of Beats. Which I...

      Yup, i said it, A headphone revolution, and i mean it.   The Accudio app is an excellent music player app with one AMAZINGLY UNIQUE feature.    Choose your headphones from over 300 and counting on their list, download a preset EQ, and enjoy Perfectly Neutral sound!!!   ...

Hi guys,    So after many positive reviews on the internet I went and bought some HD 439s this afternoon (my first set of headphones after many IEMs), however, since I have large ears, they sit on my ears a bit and hurt after a little while.    I tried a friends HD 518s and they were great...

Hi,    I have just started to get myself into the audio world. I'd like to know which headphone would be the best for my needs.  I usually listen to music through Spotify. I have several Albums in FLAC format.  I appreciate acoustic guitar music, classical, romantic and rock (John Mayer...

Hello and thanks for showing interest for my problems.   General information:   1. The price for the headphones should be around $ 100. 2. My phone is Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray, so it uses the OMTP standard, not CTIA like iPhone, Samsung, etc. 3. It was hard for me to find compatible...

I decided to buy the new Black iPod touch 5th Generation. But right now, I have some below-the-knee quality $18 In-Ear headphones that I'm ready to throw away. I want to make a change now (I've pretty much sticked with In-Ear headphones for quite some time) and go with Over-Ear headphones. I'm...

AKG K240 vs Senn HD439 vs ATH-M35 Sound quality and comfort (mostly with glasses). Any suggestions / comments?

Hi Everyone,   I am currently using a pair of Creative HN 605s   They are in pretty bad condition. The noise cancelling does not work at all, and the adjustment only works on one side. This is because one of the ear cups broke off of the headband, and I had to strap it back on with some...

Before I begin providing the necessary information for this thread, I must say that I apologize for making a separate thread for this. I already read that there was another thread for the specific intention of people asking for what headphones to get. However I thought making another separate...

Alright, so I am back again, with the same budget but different needs. I would like to get a pair of closed ear headphones and they will be used for mainly gaming, and music (metalcore). They do not need a mic, I can get one on my own. What I want is sound accuracy and good surround, as in I...

First post. Thanks all for this wonderful forum -- I learned a lot in the past few weeks just by browsing around.   Had been using crappy earphone/buds for years until 2 years ago I got a pair of Shure SRH750DJ at half price, then I learned how I have been mistreating my ears for ages...

I am going to buy a new set of headphones and hope that you can help me decide which ones to go for.   They will be used mainly for listening to music at home, and for gaming. The music is mainly rock and metal from the last 40 years. The gaming will be RPGs but also a little FPS. At home...

Hey guys, Its really been an agonizing time for me deciding which of these cans to purchase ???   Can any please relieve me ???

I'm looking for a pair of over the ear headphones that have pretty good quality sound for my price range of $40-$100.

I'm looking for a step up from my ~3 year old Sennheiser HD 203s - ideally the price range would be around $100-150 USD. They would replace my HD 203s at work and be primarily used to drown out office discussions (good sound isolation with little sound leak would be ideal). I'm relatively happy...
