Hey guys,     I love my 448's. They are my usual go-to for when I'm on the move because of their decent output and their cheapness. (If they get crushed in my backback by accident I wont cry myself to sleep) As I have seen noted, and noted myself, the seal leaves quite a bit to be desired...

Hi, My first post! Been lurking for a few weeks now and already used the search function. However, I am still undecided and a bit overwhelmed with all the options, so I decided to finally post a question. I mostly listen to rock, indie, metal, and (less frequently) jazz and classical music...

thanks for reading my thread. i personally own an hd448 that i use at home and an hd238 that i use at work. no bias-favoritism towards sennheiser, it just worked out that way in the end. i went with an hd448 because i wanted clarity overall versus anything else. thus far i'm very pleased with...

Until a few days ago, I was a proud owner of the Sennheiser HD 448. Now my wife decided to use them at work I liked the sound signature of the HD 448 (balanced and relatively neutral) a lot and could simply buy a new pair. But I wasn't too impressed with their build quality (they were very...

Hey everybody! So with Christmas time approaching I've been compiling a list of possible gifts and one of my major choices is a good pair of headphones. I have always associated sennheiser with some of the best audio out there so I decided that my first pair of good (decent/under 100$)...

So I need a pair of closed cans and I've read a gazillion reviews and it's all come down to the Sennheiser HD 448 and the KRK Systems KNS 8400. I'm honestly not too concerned about any differences in sound quality between the two at this point, but the 8400 is probably superior in that...

Hi, Im looking at buy the 518's or the 448's. I mostly listen to them at home on my computer with an amp, but i might want to take them in the car ocasionally. Are the 518's sound quality much better than the 448? The soundstage should be better cause the 518's are open, but are they worth $50...

Hey guys I'm new here I was searching the forums and found some info comparing the CAL's to the HD's but I couldn't find one comparing them to the MDRS.....I'm definitely not an audiophile but I'm looking to get some decent cans below the 100 mark. Right now I'm really into electronic music (i.e...

I've had a pair of Sennheiser HD 212 Pro headphones for about 2 years now, and I rather like them...but I just found out that I bought them from an Amazon third party seller that's specifically on Sennheiser's list of UNauthorized retailers.  So chances are they're fake.   That in mind, I...

Head-Fi Heads-Up: Amazon dropped the price on these....have been watching these and this is the first time below $50:   Amazon.com: Electronics: Sennheiser HD448 Closed Circumaural Hi-Fi Headphone   HTH :)

Hi guys.   I am selling my current Sennheiser HD448 headphones and looking to upgrade to something a little more high end. I use my headphones daily to listen to music, as my house is quite small and my parents don't like me listening to music very loud through my denon mini hi-fi. My set up...

Good and bad things about them?Would you recommend them?

 does anyone have sennheisers HD438 and HD 448 that can give me overview? Also anyone ever bought from adgtron.com Im thinking of buying  but not sure if i should.

Hi,   I'm looking to get a new pair of headphones however I'm not sure which one would be best in terms of value/quality between the Sennheiser HD449 or the Sony MDR-ZX700?   The price difference between the two is about $70 making the Senheisser substantially cheaper. Do you think the...

Hi! I want buy something with very good bass...If you can tell mey what i must choose between Skullcrusher or Sennheiser HD 448 and 449 and i want sound quality,durabillity.Thanks!

I've listened to the HD 448s and I totally love the mids and highs.  It has that sennheiser sound which I like, if only there were more bass!  Does something out there exist anywhere?

Ok, so a year ago, I purchased the Sennheiser HD 448 online from sebago traders for around $70, which was cheaper than the $99 that amazon was selling it for. I've used that pair since last August to just this month without issue. However, I always felt that they had cheap build quality and the...

and would they sound good without an amp?    

I currently have the 448 and decided to upgrade to better quality headphones. I just recently sold my beat studios and I got the ATH-M50. But I really wasnt blown away by them, people on other forums had told me that they were lightyears better than the beats. Though I agree that the vocals were...

I've loved these headphones for a couple of years now. One of these days the cord got twisted up and now It can't make contact close to the jack. I have to twist it to a perfect position to hear something but any sudden move and it goes dead. I've been told It's impossible to change or repair...

Hi guys,   My HD 448 just died yesterday (after a couple of repairs, they broke again), so I'm considering to get some new Sennheiser headphones. I'm in a bit of a conundrum here. I really loved the more or less neutral (also heard it called "dark") sound of them. But I also love the design of...

Been looking at some Sennheisers and Audiotechnias but honestly have no idea. Almost stupidly bought some Beats but thankfully realized they were a waste of money. As you can see, I'm pretty new to headphones.    I want them for listening to music on my iphone 5, macbook pro and maybe...

hi everyone, i know these types of questions may get annoying, but here it goes: im looking to get a pair of over the ear headphones in the $150 range. i do most of my listening on an ipod and laptop and listen to mostly rock and rap, but i do listen to a good amount of everything else. im...

Hello everyone. This is my first post, so bare with me. I'm going to be putting in a Sound Blaster X-fi titanium, and I need help deciding on a pair of good headphones out of a list I constructed. I'm going to be using these for gaming mainly (because I hear it's better to get headphones, rather...

HI guyz, Need a quick suggestion on which one to buy.. Am no audiophile, though i prefer nice compact bass but not too much, and soundstage for gaming.. Also I have XONAR DG 5.1 sound card(with a small inbuilt amp), but basically run from an umamped source.. I want to know 518's are...
