My friend has two teens who are in need of headphones. Girl likes pop music, boy likes old-school rap.   My friend would like to teach them the importance of audio fidelity and not bend to the latest "cool" looking head-gear. He picked up one ATH AD700 and while the price was right and sound...

I thought I'd let people know where I bought some double flange sennheiser tips from, in case everyone else was also struggling to find them.   http://www.sennheiserspares.com   You'll have to give them a call and pay over the phone but mine arrived the next day.   Part number 525739...

I am now using a pair of Monster Turbine Professional Copper IEM's and a pair of Earsonics SM3, both are wonderfull IEM but here's the rub, they are just TO ISOLATING! So I am now looking for something affordable, portable, and open so I can hear workers and family aside from when I am...

I know this might clash with the general definition of an audiophile, (if there is one), but I'm starting to do some live beatboxing with other instruments and I'm really in need of some portable monitor's. And if possible, it would be great if they wouldn't be too specific so I could use them...

Hello, its been a while I've been involved in Head-Fi.   I have had my PX100 for a while now as my portable can and I was wondering if there was a perhaps better replacement?   My treasured PX100 snapped in half when my sister accidentally stepped on it.   I would like the opinion of...

Hi, I'm relatively new to Head-FI, so here goes... What in your opinion is the best value/SQ/ thrashable headphone out there? My source is usually an iPod or iPad, amped or unamped. I'm thinking of Senn HD25s, but would welcome your thoughts and advice. Thanks!

Hi! I am tired of my sony’s V6 and I am looking for a big jump without needing to buy and AMP and without spending more than $80… doe it exist? Thanks!! ;-)

So i was looking at headphones which don't need an amp and for use with my laptop and willing to spend about $60-70 tops. I went through jokers portable shooutout thread and found the CALs to be of my liking but I can't seem to find them at that price. They have to be fully circum-aural and not...

I'm looking to replace an old set of Sony MDR-65 on-the-ear phones that have a broken jack. These are very lightweight foam-covered cans with a flat plastic headband that sit flat on (not over) the ear. Perfect for casual listening to a TV show. Here's a picture...

I've heard everything from Sony R10 and Stax Omega 2 to the PX100 and SR60's being called the most overrated headphones in the audiophile world.   Since the other thread about overrated headphones became mostly about bose, skullcandy and beats...What is your vote for the most overrated...

ok well I have been on this site researching quite a while on headphones,but because there is so many brands and opinions out there that I dont know what to get...so please recommend some   I was going to get the Bose AE but I guess they are bad so no more bose..   I want....  ...

Hi guys,   Sister just got herself a piano. TECHNICS SX-PC25 Wondering what's an "ok" set of cans for it. Budget is 50-100 dollars.   Awaiting counsel, naroush  

So, I wanted to find better than my trusty PX-100 portable headphones and took a chance on those ATH-ES7... I am disappointed: 1) These are too small for my ears. These circumaural headphones are probably designed for people with small heads and ears. 2) They are not comfortable. 3) They...

Does anyone know any headphones that have "fun" bass? Meaning a nice impact I guess. I heard the D5000's have that but is there anything else that compares to that?

Hi Everyone,   I'm pondering about buying some Audio-Technica ATH-EC700 GM ear-bud/clip-on hybrid headphones for ultra portability/stability.   My other  portable open headphones are Q Jays & sennheiser px100's. Which I find provide a decent sound relative to any other "portable" open...

Hello,   I'm looking for a bit of advice. I'm a bit lost when it comes to audio equipment, so I like to ask before I even go to try it in a store. Sorry if this question comes up here often. :)   Anyway, I was using the PX-100s for 6 years now, they served me very well. I was using...

Hi, Recently my AKG K44 broke :( . weird stuff - the driver stopped working completely (i,e - no sound at all) although there is no problem with the wiring - i opend up and checked with a multimeter.   Anyway, Im not an audophile, but do care for sound better that say, 2$ Coby headphones...

Hi, I love the sound of my PX100's but I'm looking to find something better if possible. I'll be listening to Apple Lossless on an iPod (possibly via a line-out to a Graham Slee Voyager if necessary). Music taste is very varied. I recently tried the Senn HD650’s and after extended...

My wife is looking for a pair of gym phones. she wants on-ear or ear bud (hates in-ears), that are stylish, have decent sound, and are small to carry around. The problem is, i want to find something cheaper, because the cat has eaten the wires on 2 pairs of PX-100s, and my Kossheiser...

Hello,   I was a lucky owner of e Creative Zen Vision M and Sennheiser MX/500 earbuds.   The ZMV is worn down and i wanted something new. So after reading reviews and impressions on the forums I bought a Cowon J3. I don't want an Ipod because of Itunes and after a dissapointing...

Hi guys,   I used to work from home at least three days a week, but now I am back at the office five days a week....   Anyway, I bring my 80g Ipod at work and listen to my lossless music with my Sennheiser PX100 headphones...   I wonder...would I benefit having a headphone amp ? If...

Hi,  My faithful px200 give up the ghost and i wonder if the px200-II really sound better or it's just an upgrade of the look ? Thank you. 

Hello friends! I am absolutely new to this forum as well as to branded head phones. I want to buy a headphone that gives good output and doesn't put a hole in my pocket. As under normal condition, my budget is about Indian Rs.2000 ($40) but I can go a little further if I get some thing really...

Hello   I had before sennheiser px100 and then my koss porta pro. Koss are amazing for that price and they are much better than px100 (stage, and space I love it). I am looking for some upgrade. I use my iphone 3g and macbook pro as a source - i thing it must be something around 32ohms of...
