Hi everyone,   I ordered a pair of velour ear pads to replace the vinyl pads that come with the Shure SRH 840.  They cost me about $30 shipped to my door.  They are actually made for the 940s but they fit the 840s perfectly.  Anyway...they sent me two pairs.  So I have an extra pair. ...

I, a noob, ask the headfi community: from those of you experienced with headphones, what is your favourite closed headphone for $300 or less? Currently, I am leaning towards the Beyerdynamic dt1350, but I am open to suggestions. As I am a noob, I do not as of yet own a headphone amp, so I ask...

hi, I've read ton of thread, this was driving mad about what should I  get for my next headphone. So let's talk about first, what I  like/ don't like from my hd595.     * What I  like on my hd595: - Great soundstage. Definitely, not much "sound on your face" feeling. You can relax while...

Hey whats up guys.. Been lurking this forum for some time now and finally decided to join. Im a hobbiest producer mainly interested in dubstep but i also get down with any electronic dance music, hip hop, raggae, and others. I have a pair of sennheiser HD280 Pros and i do like them but they...

I was going to buy a pair of Beat Pros, but a bunch of guys told me on GameFAQS to come hear, and just looking, it seems I shouldn't go anywhere near them.  I'm willing to pay like 300 bucks, and I listen to a lot of ska, pop-punk, punk, and acoustic, with some screamo, emo, country, and rap...

Can anyone post their opinions of these 2 phones in direct comparison?   I've heard the Denon's and like their sound, but hate the cable on the D2000. How does the shure srh940 compare?

Hi,   I am into Music production using CUbase, Reason and Fruity Loops software. I do not currently use any external keyboards and relying mainly on the software synthesiers and samplers.   I am looking for a good quality Studio Level professional headphone for recording purposes. ATH...

Hi guys, Looking to upgrade my AD700s. Love them but now want something better. I listen mainly to metal (melodic, techno, etc), but also rock and alternate. I'm happy with the bass levels and detail the AD700 put out, so I don't really want some bass heavy cans. The next logical step would...

These sound great!!! These head phones are only 55 bucks and sound amazing for the price. They even sound good before they are broken in which is pretty unusual for head phones that are this cheap. They have perfect mid-range and hit the right key everytime Once these headphones break in the...

Hey guys, first post on these boards.   Was looking to get some suggestions on the best possible amp for this combo. Headphones in question: Shure SE530, and Shure SRH940. I prefer to use my J3 as my main pmp of choice. However, if you guys have had better experiences with the Iphone (its a...

As title says - what are the main differences between these two? Which has more bass weight and a more forward mid-range? Which sounds colder/brighter/warmer/darker overall?   If any of you have heard a Shure 940 I'd welcome a comparison between that and the K271 as well, assuming the 940...

Hi Guys, I love the way they sound, and the comfort level is great with velour pads. Unfortunately, the right headphone appears to not be matching the volume coming through the left. I'm looking to see if this can be fixed, but am also wondering about any alternative phones I could buy to use in...

30 hours of listening on my new Shure SRH 840s now.  I am in love with these headphones.  My system: apple lossless -> apple TV -> Benchmark Dac1 -> Shure SRH 840.   After logging hundreds of hours with the AKG K702s and the Sennheiser HD650, I have found the perfect compromise to those great...

Anybody know where I can reliable buy (online) the replacement earpads for the shure SRH940 headphones, model number HPAEC940?   I emailed shure support and they told me they are available for purchase now, but I cannot find any online dealers selling them.  Any help appreciated.  : )

Hey Guys just joined the community, I glad I found a forum that know what a good quality headphone is since im not interested in brands like Bose or other commercial brands that are WAYYY overpriced and do more marketing than research...   So... You can say im a newbie looking into buying a...

Hello all,   I'm a lifelong audiophile with a deep love of music.  Until last year I listened exclusively to a full blown 2 channel hifi rig.  But last year I lost my lucrative job and had to move across the country to find work.  No place for my hifi in the new digs so I turned to...

Loving my new ATH-M50s, but finding the ear cup too small - it presses on the edges of my ears, and after an hour or so it becomes downright painful. Plus, they're not deep enough - I can feel my ears against the inner foam. I don't think stretching the headband will relieve this much. So I'm...
