Everybody loves a 3-way First post a 3-way review. I may be crazy for doing this, but here goes. I’ll view this like an experiment. The three interventions are the KRK KNS 8400, Shure SRH440, and the HiFiMan RE0. I know the RE0 is an IEM, so the comparison isn’t completely fair, but I love...

Hi all, first post here, but I often visit just to read.   I bought these headphones on amazon last year (october time), and was pleased when I managed to snag them for under 70€. Well I'm sad to report that they no longer work properly. The right hand cable going from the headband to the...

So I came here a few days ago to determine what new headphones I should get and decided on some shures. However I walked into a local office supply store today and found the Beats Audio Solo headphones on sale for 129.99 USD. This seems like a really good deal. Now I'm at an impass here because...

Hi All   I would not call myself a hardcore audiophile (yet!) as my sole purchases in personal audio equipment consists of a pair of Shure SE210 earphones; and after reading more and wanting something better, I bought the SE420 about a year later, which I am very happy with for all types of...

Im looking to upgrade from my current headphones and was wondering to get the most comfortable headphones while getting great sound. I have read reviews on here saying that in terms of sound, both are similar but the ath m50 having an upper hand. However, in terms of comfortability, which pair...

As the title says, I narrowed down to the two headphones. I will use them for casual listening and I mostly listen to beatles, led zeppelin, ac/dc and a lot of music from the 60s and 70s. Which headphone would be a better choice? I've heard a lot of good reviews about each one. Are the...

Sony MDR-ZX700 Review   I would like to thank Sony Portugal for lending me this pair of headphones for review. I will write as honest a review as possible.   These received over 50hrs of burn-in, I noticed no real change in sound.       Gear used: IPod Classic 160gb...

Which one would be better for only overall sound quality?

Alright so I'm going to be buying new ~$100 headphones and I really love the Beyerdynamic DT770, But It's double the price. And I don't have an AMP nor do i want one for now. I'm new to audio.   Most Important to me is the Comfort > Sound Quality > Portability   I listen to Metal and the...

Hey, guys. Let me start off by saying I'm glad to have found and joined this community. It's great.   Now, I just wanted to ask a quick question. First, a bit of info: I'm looking for head/earphones that are $200 or less. I am no producer or anything like that, I simply listen to music on a...

Hi, i've recently been looking into getting an affordable set of full sized headphones after getting a pair of in-ear headphones that perfectly suit my needs (Brainwavz M4). From the title you can obviously tell I'm stuck between the Shure SRH440 with 840 ear pads and the Koss ProDJ100, that...

I'm looking to buy closed headphones for less than $ 80 USD. For background info, I listen to classic rock, Motown, Bob Marley, acoustic rock/folk, old school country, etc. My right ear is missing one of the bones in the middle so I can hear, but its quieter than left ear. I'm 50 years old so...

I got into Hi-Fi headphones this past christmas with an AKG K550 for myself and an ATH-M50 for my brother. When a good friend of mine came over I let him demo them for a while and he really liked them, and expressed he was kind of in need of a new pair of cans himself since the cheap ones he had...

I bought a pair of shure shr840. I bought them used so the first set of ear pads are pretty much done. Im on the second pair and i know i am going to need some eventually and was wondering if there was anything better? i say this because i've heard of the shure shr440' being better with other...

Hey guys! This is my first post. I am 20, male, in college, and have never owned a nice pair of over ear headphones so I assume I'm in for quite a treat.   Stats: I listen to math rock, country, electronic dance music, classic rock, basically everything but rap. I don't like roaring bass...

Alot of peeps- including me- put srh840 pads on their srh440 headphones for better comfort and sound. I recently tried putting the brainwaz hm5 pads on and the sound got even better. Slightly more bass and stage.  And the earpads look pretty good too :)  

Hello everyone, I am new here, but I've been reading a lot of forums trying to decide which headphones i would use. I did compile a relatively large list of headphones that i am considering and i would love some advice from you guys for purchasing my first set of pretty legit headphones. The...

I am looking for suggestions on a pair of headphones in the $100 - $200 range approximately.  I have a pair of Klipsch Image One headphones that sound great, but aren't that comfortable for long periods of time.  I generally listen to music or watch movies on my computer or iPad.  At times I...

Hey I'm new to the forums and I've been trying to find a good pair of headphones I could use for my iPod. I do have the Koss PortaPros but I am looking for an upgrade as I do not like how frail they are. I am looking for something like a portable version of the AKG 240s sound quality wise. Any...

I have a pair of Grado SR80i's that I listen to at work and I love them dearly for 90% of the music that I listen to, but as many people say, they don't quite cut it for classical symphonies. Personally I think that the issue has more to do with their lack of body and impact rather than their...

Cans I own: Audio Technica ATH M50WH - Good airplane headphones Superlux HD681 - Unbelievable for the price AKG K701 - Comfort, Sounstage, Sounds like everything is in the room with you. Bass is super lame.  Also, the best looking headphones ever made IMO. Shure SRH-440 - Horrible pieces...
