Hey all,   Recently looking into buying a high (enough) quality pair of headphones for around 150$ CAD. I was going to buy Sennheiser 448's from Tiger Direct but they recently put them on back order and I realized this may be an opportunity to find a more educated purchase. I scanned...

Introduction   Hi guys! Paul B. here, bringing you my first legit headphone review. Today, I’m focusing on my Sennheiser PX 100-II.   Before anything else, let me tell you that, while I’m really into this hobby, it’s only recently that I somewhat got the grasp of describing sound, thanks to...

Ok so I recently decided to buy a pair of decently good headphones ($100 - $200). I had no idea about this whole world of audiophiles and the amount of difference between headphones.   Anyway, I've read tons and tons of reviews now, and I'm totally confused as to what pair to get. I listen...

Hey I came across this website as I was browsing for some headphones to buy. My birthday is coming up and I would really like to upgrade from the standard iPod earphones I currently have.    I live in Canada so things are usually more expensive so I'm on a budget of around $100 I went...

I'm looking for a new pair of headphones. Previously I've been using Sennheiser PX 100 I was pretty happy with them but they eventually broke down (sound only on one side) and I got them very cheap at the time (about $25)   I'm looking to buy either PX-II 100 or AKG K 420, they're rougly the...

Hi!   So, I was thinking about getting a new pair of headphones since my old pair is a little scratchy. I was hoping you guys could help me!   I really want the headphones to last, and that's probably the most important thing. I will be using these headphones for traveling a lot, so it's...

I'm trying to figure out why, when I walk into any local retailer, the only brands I see are really just garbage like Sony (lower-end), Panasonic, Skullcandy, Diddy Beats, etc.   And typically I'll see MAYBE one Sennheiser IEM and/or gaming headphones.   The PX-100ii is the best sub-$100...

I was looking at the PX-100 II but wondered how far it is from my beloved 650? Need some portable headphone that will run directly from my IPod and resembles the 650's house-sound. Any brand will do, as long it's open, airy, full and balanced. I looked through the portable shootout, but...

I need a new pair of earphones for running. My budget is unlimited and I'm only searching for a good bang for the buck earphone/portable headphone. I'll use a samsung mp3 player with 192kbps mp3. My actual full-size headphones are philips hp-910 (not as good as AD700, but similar) and I'm quite...

For repairs and cable replacements.

Both are in about the same price range at the big A, so these are the two I'm looking at. I'm just looking for a portable, comfortable, and good sounding pair of headphones(that I'll be using with either my Android, Sansa Clip, or Cowan D2) for work. I listen to mostly jazz and blues, but i do...

I recently acquired a pair of broken Sennheiser PX100s for free from a friend. They are out of warranty, so I won't have to worry about voiding it. Here's the problem: the right driver is blown out so that there is no bass at low volumes and a buzzing/rattling noise at higher volumes. I read...

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...

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...

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...

Hello head-fi! I've been a huge fan of this site for quite some time and after lurking for months, finally decided to register.    I'm happy to say that after nearly 2 years of being totally without portable music, I'm finally in the market for a new rig. Unfortunately, I'm not well versed...

Hi folks, I've enjoyed digging into the excellent reviews. I thought I'd throw this out and see if there are any recommendations. I have been on the hunt for some good all-purpose headphones that can span jogging to office listening to travel. What got me here is a shorted left can of the $179...

I have the Cowon S9 and don't want to buy an amp. I like the sound of the IE8s and the M50. I want something very portable that is durable, comfortable, looks good, and sounds great. Under $150 would be great, considered the Senn HD 25 but the high price, questionable comfort, and dorky looks...

I'm looking for another portable headphone, but I can't decide between these too.    Disregarding the size, which would you all recommend?   My music is pretty diverse, but it's mostly alternative rock, hip-hop, and metal.   I currently have the RE0s and M50s.  I like the way both of...

First, let me say that I've been cruising this forum for a few days now searching for info on a good set of headphones, and I've been really impressed with the quality of review and discussion here.    I'm new to the headphone world, and not really an audiophile per se, though I'm not new to...

I was about to buy a pair off the legendary Koss Portapro's. The only reason I wasn't was because of PX 100's. I then looked into it and was just about to buy the Portapro's as they they got more praise. As I was buying them I noticed the new PX 100-II's from sennheiser and was wondering if...

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  

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...
