Hi. I've ordered a replacement foam headband for my Sennheiser 580 as it's almost completely flat and uncomfortable now, and the shop is awaiting stock in about a week. He has however a foam headband in stock right now for the 650, same price, which he says will fit my 580. While I don't mind...

ive had the ath m50's for a while now, and im just not feeling them like i thought i would.... i listen to almost anything from electronica to country. but when im listening to my headphones its mostly electronica. so it needs to sound good for that.... i dont have an amp, and would prefer not...

Hello all, I've been a lurker on this forum a while now and I thought I'd finally create an account.   The question I pose for you all today is one I've been wondering for a long, long time. I'm looking for a pair of headphones more engaging and less laid back than the Sennheiser HD650s. I...

Well i have literally been doing anything possible to find the correct headphone because im really nervous about spending my money and then not liking the headphone so i was wondering i have these options (i listen to dubstep, rock, pop, hip hop, alternative, reggae, R&B, classical almost all...

Hey everyone!   My ATH-A500s have a short in their cable and I've had them for about 5 years, so I'm starting to look at some replacements.  I have a better paying job now so I'm thinking about upgrading to DT 770 Pros or something... But I know a few headphones out there have detachable...

Hi all. This is my first review posted on the site, and it came about when a fellow poster, elvergun, asked for my opinions on several cans in my collection.   Please don't be too harsh, as I'm only posting this review from the perspective of a basshead. I crave a lot of bass in my...

I'd like to replace the headband pad on my Sennheiser HD580s? How do you do this? I can see some ways to do this, but...   Thanks!

Hello. I'm looking for a new set of headphones which can fit in max. 200$. I listen mostly to metal and like clear sound, but I won't say no to bassy. My previous headphones were CAL! and they were ok. It's time for something better, I'm considering choices such as Brainwavz HM5, HD598...

I'm looking for an upgrade to these headphones. I want:  1) Even better sound stage. I already think the 598s have an incredible sound stage but I'm looking for something EVEN better. For reference, I thought the Q701s had a somewhat unrealistic soundstage.  2) Neutral sound; I want to hear...

I recently got a pair of HD580s cheaply, and I want to make sure I'm getting the most out of them. The only amp I currently have is a Fiio E6. While it is loud enough to listen to through this, i don't know if i'm getting all I can get out of the 580s quality wise.   1) Would the Fiio E11 be...

Hey head fi I havegoten myy choices of cans down to these two headphones. I come to you to help me decide I listen to pretty much everything I like some extra bass but not so much to where it takes away from the overall sound quality. I if you could give me some pros and cons of both headphones...

Hello audiofiles,  I am a newcomer to your community and find myself in need of some guidance and wisdom from the masses at Head-Fi. I have just recently thrown down the shackles of apple earbuds and purchased my first quality pair of headphones and earbuds. I bought a pair of Phillips uptowns...

Hey Guys!, so I've actually been around Head-Fi, reading around and reading reviews for years, entertaining/looking/researching and what not. And pulled the trigger on the ATH-M50S about a year and a half ago. I've loved these cans for awhile now, but i feel like i could probably find something...

looking for some good headphones that are 250. preferably closed headphones. was looking at senns earlier, but couldnt find any that i liked besides the hd 598s, but those were open. now looking at the bose oe2i. Any advice?? i listen to bassy music , and i really like bass, but i like mids and...

Hello, Currently I'm trying to find a nice pair of headphones for gaming and some sound monitoring.   I enjoy doing YouTube commentaries and live streaming of video games, but I also want to soon begin a podcast. So, I thought it would be nice to finally upgrade from my Turtle Beach X11s...

(I know this review is pretty late seeing as how the new line of Denon headphones is almost out. I still hope this review is of some use to people, seeing as how there will still be a lot of old Denons going around. First review on Head-Fi...here goes)     Let me start off by saying that I...

I have almost decided to purchase the HD 25-1 II.  My only hesitation is the comfort level.  I previously returned the ATH-M50s because they clamped too tight to my ears (and I also did not like the feeling of the over the ear seal that made my ears sweat).  I am looking for a decent pair of...

In looking to replace my D Zero. I just received my Weston's 4R. I'm looking for an amp upgrade for the Westone and my HD580's. Sources are my Note2, Rock Box Clip Zip, Nano and iPod touch. I was looking at the Leckerton but not sure. I get overwhelmed reading reviews and would appreciate some...

For me, it was my Beyer dt 990/600. They were just fun to listen to and the comfort level was off the charts. Even when I didn't really feel like listening, I could still listen to them. 

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...

I've been looking at the Headphone Buying Guide for headphones around $300-350, but there are multiple options for my price range and I frankly don't have enough experience to know what would be the best to get in my situation. I'd prefer closed-backs unless there are fairly quiet open-backs (it...

I have Sennheiser HD580 and HD650 headphones and I am currently looking for a custom cable. I need custom cable for portable MP3 player to listen to MP3 songs. For this purpose I do not need the highest quality expensive copper or silver cables as they won't make sense anyways. Yet I want a...

I have a nice set of Sennheiser HD580 for music/etc. Also I have an Astro A40 headset for comparison......   I have an Astro 7.1 Wired Mixamp (2011 Version) and a Turtle Beach DSS. I so far prefer the mixamp.......   I want something for pure FPS listening/directional/footsteps etc. I ,of...
