Hello, this is my first post (and to be honest, I'm not sure if this is the right section, I wasn't sure if the banner for recommendations and whatnot was the right place to ask this, so bear with me please) and I'd like to ask a question about these headphones, or maybe other in this price...

 first of all i am not an audiophile , but i found myself not enjoying any headphone much and that i want something more , i think a better soundstage would impress me .   so i decided to buy the creative Zx as my new sound card since a lot people said that there's no big difference between it...

Hi there   Ii had such a laugh. These guys say your onboard has better audio than a dedicated sound card  

Ive been at the amazon checkout page, looking at getting the DT-990 + e7 or the HD 598 + (maybe a e6). I love the looks and the comfort of the headband of the 598s, I have put them on but not listened to them (I know, weird right?)    I feel that the HD 598 are the perfect buy for me...

Hello, I know there are a million threads on the Sennheiser HD 600 and HD 598 and comparisons on Head-fi and beyond but It still isn't clear for me (I have did research on these two in comparison for 4 months and can't seem to find what i'm looking for)  I currently Listen to Metal/Rock based...

My current system consists of:   Music Streamer II Straight Wire Encore II interconnect Headroom Little base amp Grado SR225   I purchased the Music Streamer II a few months ago. I'm very happy with the improvements it brought to my system. It really took a lot of metallic edge off...

I really would like some help making a good value for the money i'm willing to spend for new headphones. I want to upgrade from my old sennheiser pmx 100. To sum up i want the best sub 500€ over the ear headphones that money can buy. I'll mostly use with a portable player at home. I'm wiling to...

So right now i got Xonar DS sound card and i want to know if its worth to upgrade to fiio e10. Xonar DS has Chipset Wolfson WM8776  Specs:http://www.wolfsonmicro.com/documents/uploads/data_sheets/en/WM8776.pdf Fiio E10...

hi all,  I've recently purchased the HD598 and i want to get a DAC/amp combo or two separate units to replace the fiio e7. I have to turn the e7 kindda high to be able to listen at good volume on the HD598 compare to the Triple fi 10. I'm thinking of getting the audioengine D1 because it has...

Hey guys.   Im on the market for a new pair of headphones and while sound quality is a must, comfort is my main concern...   Im going to be wearing this for long hours while working on the computer and the local weather is always and the hot side.   So, they need to be light, not...

After trying to find an IEM that was perfect for me I have failed. I am wiping my hands clean from my search for iems. I would consider myself a beginner audiophile. I have a basic understanding of bass, mids, highs and soundstage. I am not a bass head per say but I do enjoy bass when...

Hye   It s my first post on this forum, and I need some advice   I have an iphone5+fioo E11+ SH598   I would like to know, to have a better sound quality, is it necessary to purchase fiio L9 with lignthning adaptator? or standard connector 3,5mm is enough?   Thank you very much

Hello HF community. I have been researching a lot and the headphones mentioned in the title are what I have narrowed down my list to, however I have been going crazy trying to make the best, informed decision as I have no way to audition them.   I am a professional musician, I play (and...

Razordog Deals (http://www.razordogdeals.com/) presently seems to offer the lowest prices on several Sennheiser headphones, taking into account their $50 discount. For example, a NEW HD598 can be obtained for $200, which is $50 less than Amazon.   Is there anybody here who has done business...

I haven't seen a dedicated  effort on the forum to quantify earpad size for our favorite 'over ear' headphones.  Because headphone comfort aka ergonomics are perhaps almost as important as sound signature for those of us who like to listen for long sessions in particular, maybe overdue to...

I've had ATH m50's for a while now along with a Fiio e10. Was wondering if I should get 598's or sr225's. I listen to mostly rock and country but have a very wide range of music in my library. I would say it's like 40% rock/country 20% old school r&b 15% electronic 5% classical 10% jazz and 10%...

FiiO is planning to release a new line of cables made of PCOCC-A. Two of such cables are made specifically for certain headphone models, and the other one is just a 3.5 mm extension cable.   As stated by FiiO:       Q: What exactly is PCOCC-A? A: PCOCC stands for Pure Copper Ohno...

Is it just me or...

Hi guys. ..   So, I am happy with my HD598, BUT ... I was thinking, is it a bad idea to add a bit of lows in my EQ from WinAmp player. Just a tad to the first 3 columns (not a technical way to describe EQ)   Any input will help. Thanks.

Basically what do you guys think is th better choice aside from the fact that Astros are $100 more than trittons. People with experience please help Sent from my LGMS500 using Tapatalk

I want a pair of headphones for gaming and some ipod listening.  I listen to all types of music as well, pop, rap, rock, indie, etc.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

I have read MLE's gaming headphone thread over a few times and I have come to the conclusion that the Fidelio X1's would be the best for me as I am looking for a more fun set, and I am looking for a more comfortable set. I have already founds someone to buy my 598's for $120, so My question is...

I just bought a pair of 598's and am immediately in love with them. The only issue is I travel a lot. I tried on some Momentums at the store and am not nearly skilled enough to determine my preference in 5 minutes of listening. I also only had my iPod, so I didn't get to try them with any games...

Hi There,    My work desktop is a old HP computer, and I'm curious if an AMP/DAC combo will help improvement my audio experience.   I'm generally using my P5s at work, and listening to spotify on 320kbps. Will a Fiio e17 benefit my setup/headphones?    Thanks!     My portal media player...

Hi everyone! I'm a newcomer to this community, and am looking for a high entry level headphone and amp combo. Recently, I have been researching the likes of the AKG K550, Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro, Audio Technica Ath M50, and the Sennheiser HD 598. For amps, I've been looking at the C&C BH2...
