ok so the problem is that all they do is distort. they are very clear but i cannot stand the distortion i think i got a dud. or it needs an amp but everyone tells me it doesn't need it. im ticked off because my $60 pioneer se m390 headphones sound better. and they were 1/3 the price. if the more...

I'm looking to buy some good headphones, and have so far found the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 and the Shure SRH840(I am open to other suggestions in this price range). I plan to use them for listening to all sorts of musical styles, as well as for playing bass guitar through. I play bass 5+ hours a...

Okay at the moment I have Beats Solo HD (dont hate me )  but after doing a little research it turns out I can get some better headphones for a better price. What im looking for...   - Punchy Bass  - Sound quality  - build quality (unlike beats Im on my 4th pair!)  - £50 - £150    I...

Is there a more expensive alternative to the M50 that shares some of its qualities:   Easy to power Accurate Relatively portable   The M50 looks great, but i'm just worried that It wont have a good enough sound. Are there any cans that are like the M50s, just more detailed (and more...

so i work over 40 hours a week and have my headphones on for probably 38 of those hours... i currently have the m50's and am looking for more out of the headphones... I dont really know where to go from here. I got these headphones maybe 6 months ago when i gave up on bose and decided that there...

Hi-ho from Germany, dear Head-Fiers!   I use to read here for about the last ten years.   Since then I've owned round about 50 headphones (from DT231 up to HD800), but they are/were mainly open ones.   My experience with closed headphones is very little.   Well, finally, I've...

These both headphones seem to be very similar, including the price.   I'll have to try them out for myself in the near future and I will review them then in this thread.   But until this moment I really would like to read your experiences.   Has someone already compared them through...

I have a pair of Denon DN-HP700 headphone that have an inner diameter of 2 inched and outer diameter of 3.5 inches and am looking for a more comfortable ear pad.   Koss seems to have several that would do the trick but unfortunately they don't give their sizes. The  PRO4AAAT look like they...

I'm pretty sure this has been asked before, but with a price limit of $300 (Give $50 for extremely good matches)....   Are there any around-ear (circumaural) headphones which are a noticeable step up from the Audio Technica ATH M50's in the following areas?   Bass Punch/Kick Bass...

I'm thinking about upgrading from my Klipsch Image S4 (which sound great IMO) ive narrowed my choices down between these 2 headphones  i listen to a wide variety of music, but mostly Trance, Hardstyle, and Metal. what are the differences in comfort, isolation, soundstage, instrument...

Hey Head-fi. I'm looking for a small-ish super-auarl headphone to get for portable use and I'm having a bit of trouble deciding. I really like the sound the M50 has, but sadly it's too big for me to wear when I'm out and about, so I'm looking to supplement them with something that sounds similar...

Hey guys, I'm new here but anyways ...   I looking for some headphones to use and this is my first time actually getting a headphone so help me out  I eliminated all my choices to these two : the Shure SRH840 or the Audio Technica ATH-M50  So I was wondering ...which one do you guys...

sorry i couldn't resist this is an incredible deal.     http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/product/shure-shure-headband-headphones-srh750dj-srh750dj/10141945.aspx?path=15cbe65325412ecd549ef7a8baa0a769en02

  Hey guys, I feel like this pair of cans gets a lot of attention when seasoned audiophiles are asked for an affordable, viable alternative to the infamous Monster Beatsbydre cans- and it's one of the the four cans I've seen the most as Monster alternatives (DT770's, M50, SRH750- for a lower...

I have never owned over-ear headphones and I am looking to buy a good entry level pair that will cover all my needs. I listen to mostly rap and hip hop so I like strong bass, but not the kind of shaky overpowering bass. I have been looking at the Audio Technica ATH-M50, Shure SRH750DJ, and Shure...

OK, this may be a futile exercise, but hopefully we can tidy this forum up and reduce the daily replication of threads that ask the same questions.   If you're new to Head-Fi and are seeking advice, hopefully this thread will assist you in making an informed decision.   Head-Fiers are...

Yeah, i know there has been multiple other threads on this but im hoping for some more results.. I listen to a lot of metal, alternative and dubstep music, so they need to be pretty versatile.   I have a couple in mind but im open to more ideas.   Ultrasone hfi 700...

they let me try them with my ipod and man they sounded terrible. i compared them to my shure srh750dj and they sounded muddy and the bass was very fake sounding. i dont understand how anyone could think the beats were the best headphones ever. for 1/2 the price my shures sound so much clearer...

Hi,   I am looking at getting some good closed headphones to listen to music around the office, my price range is <$150 or so. I found the M50's which seem to be everything I want (I like bass, listen to mostly hip hop and rock). My problem however is the cord. Every pair of headphones I...

I'm sorry if this has been asked before but i need to find out if its my headphones or if my sound card sucks. OK my headphones tend to distort or clip on high pitched vocals and instrumentals. does this have to do with the headphones or does it have to do with them not getting enough power to...

I recently received a pair of $150 Bose over the ear phones as a gift. I feel like they don't sound that great, and I have always felt Bose products are overrated.   My budget is 150-200. I listen to bass heavy music maybe 50% of the time (Hip-Hop, Dub Step, Rap). I also listen to Rock quite...
