Im planning on upgrading my ath-m50's soon, my budget would be around 300 dollars. I listen mostly to rock like green day, audioslave, guns and roses, etc. I personally don't feel the ath-m50 does well in rock because when I compared them to my sennheiser ie60's and it just sounded overall...

i dont think this comparison has been made before. They both open back and more or less in the same price range (HD 650 is $423 in amazon) so I wanted to see how both compare.

I generally listen to rock music like green day and I want a headphone which makes guitar, drums, and vocals more "alive" and present. I currently own an audio technica ath-m50 and a sennheiser IE60 (IEM) and so I decided to test both of them on the rock genre. I tested my IE60 first and played...

Whats up! So after seeing the "most over-rated headphone" thread, and the "whats the worst headphone you ever heard" thread, and similar threads in that vein, I had an idea: what about a thread that encourages people to list headphones they feel are under-rated/unknown/real dark horses that...

Looking at the graphs it has the same response as a lcd2. Obviously as a potrable its not going to be anywhere near as good or powerfull. Don't really want a dark headphone or to upgrade all my stuff just to use it. Something with deep presant bass that isn't overpowering. The 1350 seems just...

Hey everyone   I have some HD598s that I just got for use at work, and they sound great, much better than my HD555s, but they leak too much for my office mate. I didn't think they'd bother her, but they are apparently too loud.    I listen to mainly acoustic stuff, some rock, daft punk...

I've read so much positive reviews about this headphone getting editors choice awards among many regarded hi-fi magazine sites on the net. My question is if these would be a "significant" downgrade comparing to Shure SRH-940 which are my current headphones. My setup consists of ARCAM-rPAC...

Hello,   I need some help here making a decision. I accidentally destroyed my SRH440 and have to send back my SRH940 due to a growing hairline crack. Here's my current setup:     Ebtech Hum Exterminators -> Monster Power Station Pro 1000-> 2010 27 Apple iMac -> Audioquest Carbon...

Hello, I am new here. Currently, I am considering to spend 200-300$ for best headphones, that can play classical music, or Opera, without coloration, so the voices and singing should be heard on them the closest possible to the original voice of the actor. Same would be good for orchestra, so...

Hello all, total newbie here looking for advice on a good pair of headphones under $500. My music library is a real mix of files, but most of what I currently listen to are 256 kbps MP3s downloaded from iTunes. I'll probably be switching over to Google Music as they offer 320. I prefer...

I received them yesterday.   (I currently alternate between the Shure SRH840 and Sony SA-5000 while listening at work. Source is a Creative Zen Vision:M and Ray Samuels Mustang Amp)   Only had them on for a few hours, so way to early to post any final judgements.     But I do...

Hi,   I've slowly been upgrading my headphones. I love music and just want to experiment with different styles of headphones. I have some bose headphones, souls, and just purchased online a ath-m50s with fiio 6 amp. The reviews are more or less great on ath-m50's (for $300 or less headphones)...

I can get a srh1440 new for 180€, but only today. Should I spend the money or not? Is It worth It for a good headphone? How good is the srh1440 for Gaming? The Sennheisers like the HD600 and 650 are well known to be good. But I havn't Read much about the Shure... Your help would be greatly...

Im planning on upgrading my  ath-m50 for an open can sometime soon but I'm having trouble deciding which. A fellow head-fier said the he-400 was a must and I was pretty sure on getting it, but im still in some doubt. I listen mostly to rock (green day, audioslave, guns and roses) and pop rock...

There is a sale today in Holland on the Shure SRH1440. Currently I am using Beyerdynamic DT880Pro's as my daily headphones for music, movies and gaming.  I really like my DT880Pro but it's going to have its 3rd birthday soon, so as you can imagine because of heavy daily use (probably around 50...

Title pretty much says it all, but to be more specific, Shure 1440 owners, what amplifier do you use and what would you recommend? My budget is around $350 (USD), I normally listen to a lot of classical, as well as 70s/80s rock. Looking for an amp that can cure its slight sibilance and boost the...
