Questions about suggestions of good fiio or other Amps for Sennheniser HD428 Do you guys have any suggestions of Amps for this headphone? My budget is $40-$50 for the amplifiers. I only heard fiio amps are quite good. I am not familiar with other brands. I currently use my headphone to listen...

Hi.   My old Sennheiser HD 428 gave out this week. I am not a big audiophile, and there would be too much background noise to fully appreciate the audio quality anyhow. I have a budget of $50 and I'm looking for the headphones with the best isolation of outside noise. As long as the...

I've read several reviews of the Citiscape Downtown, but haven't been able to find any comparing it to the HD428. The Downtown is on a 24 hour sale for $40 here: http://bensoutlet.com/products/citiscape-downtown, bringing it into a similar price point as the refurbished HD428s. They'll be used...

Hey all,   I'm quite new to the headphone world and just decided to start looking for a good quality headphone after listening with my friend's Grado SR60i back in July of this year. I know for sure that I will get an open can sooner or later, but as of now, I've been looking for a good...

Hello, I currently own the Hd 428 and Hd 419. I mostly listen to Rock.  (For example: Metallica, Blink-182 and The Killers.) I would like them to have punchy bass. under 200 please.    How big is the jump from Hd 428?   I was looking at the M50's  Are the sutiable for my taste/needs...

I would like some opinions about these headphones. I want to buy one of them for watching movies on my macbook pro. I tried the sony mdr-xb500 and i really liked them...nice sound very good bass.

Okay so I have sennheiser 428s and not so much bass i did the dubstep mod and it made it sound bloated on non bassy songs. anyways.. what headphone preferably under 100 would play these songs good (I'll put times to watch and what i want :) btw if you hate dubstep these are origins of it uk...

Hi! Newcomer here, hunting for some good an advice on a decent entry-level amp I can purchase for my Sennheiser HD 428s. I'm looking for the best value, sub $100 if possible. Really, the question is whether I'll see an improvement by using one. The impedance is 32 ohms, so I tend to think...

Hey guys this is my first post here, I actually just registered here just to ask this question since it seems this site has a good reputation on knowing what's what when it comes to headphones.   I want to get headphone for around 200 or under if it goes over 200 that would be fine too as...

So I went to best buy and I tried on the sennheiser hd428 and absolutely love them. However the cord stopped me from buying them. I would like something a bit more sturdy and removable would be nice. I am looking in the $40-$60 range and would prefer something from amazon (Christmas gift cards)...

Looking for a inexpensive set for my 15 year old sons Bday. Bass would be the priority over accuracy.  I have been looking at the Sony MDR-XB300. Are there any others in this price range that I should look at? Thanks.

Hei im newbie here, i had my first cans was sennheiser HD 428, its not bad at all, but just like all music lover, my standard begin to rise.. I felt my 428 became dissapointing. If i want to buy beetwen 558 or 598, which one do you think is the best? I like accoustic, etc. most mainstream music...

I should start off by saying I currently have a pair of Bose noise canceling headphones (I know what you're going to say). They were a gift from last christmas, and at the time I thought they'd be nice for studying and the sound wasn't bad. But now I've gotten more into audio equipment, and...

Just wanted to point out a not very well known site that i think is great for buying headphones. They have very good prices, especially on the refurbished phones. Refurbs are essentially new, but much cheaper. I got my HD428's for $24 and love them.   No, I'm not affiliated with them, I just...

In terms of comfort, sound quality and bass?

Hello head-fi   I Started regretting buying the Skullcandy Agents(the things were small, it sounded like 1 speaker was louder than other, didnt go in ear fully, and they broke yesterday...I'm not even sad about it. also I knew that they would break). so I've been looking for better...

 I was looking for a cheap portable headphone I could pick up from an electronics store nearby. I decided on a pair of Senn's HD 428 mainly because I really liked the HD 448's sound, and according to Headroom's frequency response measurements the 428 and 448 are exactly the same, with the HD 438...

hey guys,    new to headfi. im looking for comfortable headphones with great bass for under 70. currently own the shure srh 240 but the bass too weak for my taste and its highs are quite piercing at times..   anyway, the important thing is good bass (quality and quantity) and wont...

I started out with sennheiser HD428's and really liked the signature of the headphones and the only complaint I had was that the bass wasn't as strong as I would like it to be. I decided that I would rather try in ear headphones so I got some RP-HJE 900's and loved them. I loved their balance it...

So I'm getting a new pair of sennheiser HD 598s soon but I cannot afford an amp. Will they still sound good? I currently own a pair of Philips SBC HP400. Will I notice a difference?  

I want a headphone that will be good for classical, and like Beatles type music also movies primarly through my Dell XPS. Seeing that the 598s don't require an amp but would prefer one, I can use then before I get an amp. If there is any other headphones you would think are better, let me know...

So, turns out I never managed to order a pair of Usone 580's for xmas. While I am somewhat disappointed and have had to put $600 into a pc so that it could work for school, I am looking for a headphone that is comfortable, natural sounding, a large soundstage, and preferably... Flat. I guess it...

I am entering into the world of nice headphones, and I am thinking I am going to buy a pair of ATH M50s.I just have a few very important questions: They have good but not overpowering bass with nice highs and lows, right? Will they be uncomfortable with glasses? (I know that the HD 428 is...
