Hello, I realize this is quite unusual. I have been hearing impaired since I was little. I love music and unfortunately most HeadPhones I have tried are just so awkward and horrible to me, especially since nowadays everyone wants Bass and I get dizzy from bassy headphones. And then I have the...

I find circumaural headphones too sweaty, so I'm currently looking around for alternatives. My questions: 1. How hot do supraaural headphones get? I've tried clip-ons before and they seem ok, but I've never tried the ones with headbands. 2. Generally speaking (or at least around the $50 mark)...

This is my first post on head-fi, so please be kind :)   For normal, every day use, I've become acustomed to my Grado SR60's.  For gym and portable use, I have my Sennheiser PX100's.   Problem: My PX100's are breaking.  I can see bare wire peeking out where the cord enters one of the...

I have had my K271 MK II's for about 6 months and I have been overall pleased with them. however, I really wanted an open back over the ear headphone, and at the time of purchase, I could not find a K240 series for the same price. I was thinking the K601's would be a good upgrade. I enjoy the...

I'm on a trip overseas and went in today to purchase a replacement for my lost PX100. Full intended to pick up the PX100 from an authorized dealer. Anyways, the dealer suggested that I try the K24P which he thought was a lot better than the Senn. He had one of each for me to demo and had a...

I've had KSC75's before, but the clip on design sucked So I'm looking at the sporta pros, akg k24p's, px100s (found one for 10 bucks on amazon, used) and the HAFX33. How would you describe the sounds of each? I'm looking for something to make up for D2's sound (I think they call it "cold"...

The wiring in the plug stem of my Sennheiser PX100 'phones finally broke, so now I need a replacement set for working out. I'm not averse to buying another pair of PX 100s, but first I wanted to look around to see if there are any other contenders.    The main criteria for these headphones...

...but there isn't a general advice thread in the Portable section. I wouldn't call myself an experienced listener. My first halfway decent dip into the head-fi world was the Sennheiser PX100s. That prompted me to buy the Etymotic HF5s. I've had my HF5s for two years, and it's been a great two...

i was wonder what people thought of the sennheiser px200's and if they think that thye are better than the 100's i will mostly be using my headphones for the walk to school and in school and for road trips

I'm having a lot of trouble determining whether this headphone can in fact be driven properly with a portable source such as an iPod or portable cd player... I would be incredibly grateful if someone who owns this headphone in the 32 ohm version could tell me whether there is a drastic...

What up Head-fi?  Does anyone know about these headphones? Could someone maybe hit me with their opinions on it?    Here are the specs   Style: Fully enclosed dynamic stereo headphones Frequency range: 5Hz - 28,000Hz Impedance: 45Ω Max Input: 2000mW Output Sound Level: 105dB...

I've owned the above cans from new and love the clear, detailed sound; however, they're definitely quite trebly and lacking in bass (and this was true from the day I got them). I've had other Sennheiser cans over the years, including HD480 and even a set of PX100 for use with my iPhone. I like...

I'm still learning the lingo, but am getting closer to understanding what I like and don't like about the gear I already have.  In understanding  this, I hope to be able to purchase my next IEMs intelligently.   My musical tastes tend to be a little eclectic and my playlist is "random all". ...

A newbie here, always wanted to go the audiophile way......what started of as a search for a good pair of portable headphones (for that commute to grad school) has led me to a Senn PX 100...upgraded source of music from mp3s to FLACs using a Macbook and playing with Decibel/Fidelia...finally bit...

Hi there, fellow audiophiles!   Well, some years ago, i started listening, and also apreciating, music, and from the old rock days, i moved into house music, and then some alternative types, and what not. Finally, in the last couple of years i've been really into drum and bass, dubstep...

I'm new to headphones. I was recommended a pair of these Sennheiser's, which to my knowledge is a good brand. This guy knows a lot about headphones and it fit my price range of about $20-$40ish.   I want to know if they are good for the money or if there's a better pair out there for the...

Hi, I am looking for to improve my portable listening expirience. I initialy bought the senn's px100, and while I am very pleased with the sound, I find them absolutely useless outside - the isolation is non-existent.   That is the primary reason I got my brainwavz m1 in ears - to get...

I'm looking to get a pair of gym headphones (one of the ear pieces on my PX-200s broke, so they don't make a good seal). I've been considering the PX-100s and the Koss Porta Pros, but unless I'm mistaken, these are both open. Would these be good for the gym, or would too much noise leak in? Any...

i know music have something to do with your sound preference too,  but i think mainly my sound preference was set by my Koss Portapros,  they are no doubt bass heavy, bright and fun to listen to. after spending some time with the protapros i find it too muddy.   till now , i compare all the...

The cord at the end of the jack is bared and sound is only coming out of left phone.   I don't believe the cable/jack can be replaced. Any fix for this?  These are right at the end of 2-year warranty but I don't believe this would qualify for a warranty repair.

Hey, all. I've recently been entertaining the thought of buying some Thinksound earphones, but I'm not sure which one to get. I currently have Grado SR-80i's and the old Sennheiser PX-100's, and I actually enjoy the dark, smooth sound of the Sennheiser's a bit more than the liveliness and...

Hi I need headphones that have the same sound signature as the portapros, but better treble, and noise isolating. Under 100. Thanks mackat

I need to find a pair that are so comfortable and lightweight that you could wear them all day every day without any irritation or discomfort. So canalphones are out, and earbuds are out. They need to be low-profile; nothing big and bulky. And ideally, something under $30, which is quite...
