Has anyone heard both of these headphones, I've worked it down to these two. I mainly listen to classical, jazz, and Bands like Mumford & sons, I heard the MDR1Rs have more pronounced mids, but as long as they're detailed I'm fine with that. I also heard the 770LEs are improved from the normal...

I think it is worth mentioning that besides the recently announced MDR-10R series, Sony also announced an improved version of their MDR-1R line of headphones, hence the MDR-1RMK2.  I don't know too much Japanese, but here is are some quick points on the MK2's improvements over the original:  ...

Ok I apologize for anyone who told me not to get these but I actually have beef with them for different reasons than what some have said.  I love the Grados SR80i but my wife doesn't lol.  She thinks that they will wake up our little one being that I mainly use them in the room next to his.  To...

which is better? how they are (and/or in comparison with v-moda m-100, ath m50, or sennheiser 650) sq, comfort, soundstage, bass, lows, mids, highs, etc.   genre: everything gear: fiio e12 mont blanc, v-dac mkii, schiit bifrost, vallhala   Thank you.

Once again, I am trying to find some sensibly-priced closed cans for use at home, when the use of my open HE-500s or HD600s is not practical (i.e. when my wife is watching television, or in summer when the air conditioning is running at full blast).   The cans will generally be used on the...

Hows it going,   In the next week or so I plan on buying a pair of Sennheiser HD 650's w/ a Schiit Asgard amp and HRT Music Streamer II dac.  I listen to every type of music so just looking for a good all around sound with the 650's.  My computer will be my only source of music.  Also will...

Looking for some detailed closed circumaural cans. They also need good isolation. Sound leakage is not a huge concern although a ton of sound leakage would be a problem. I assume as long as they're not open back they should be fine.   I'm not a huge fan of bass and don't really care about...

Hello,   I am in the market for a new pair of headphones.  I don't really have good audio gear at the moment.  My computer has a pretty decent sound card (Asus Xonar Essence ST) but I want the headphones to be versatile.  I want to be able to listen to them with an ipod or laptop or...

Closed Portable Circumaural Shooting Gallery – Audio Technica ATH-M50, Sony MDR-Z1000, AiAiAi TMA-1 Studio, Sennheiser Momentum, Logitech UE6000, Sony MDR-1R   Over the years I’ve been on a bit of a quest to find a good closed circumaural headphone for portable use. I’ve realised that I own...

I was looking for a pair of over the ear headphones which sound great and look great I was looking at the v-moda m100 but I would like to get your opinions.

Yo, what up. I was looking for a fun sounding headphone around the 300 range and I eventually narrowed my choices down to these two. At this point I don't know which to get, so i figured, why not ask the experts here at head-fi? If I helps, I listen to hip hop/rap, rock, dubstep,electronic, and...

Hello Head-Fi   Im looking for a new pair of headphones for mostly classical music, but also rock, pop and more.   Right now i got "Ultrasone HFI-780" and i am very pleased with the sound, but i want some that is more comfortabel that doesnt leak sound and got better audio quality.  ...

Hello head-fi community I am searching for headphones to use with a Tera Player and have some special requirements. And I'm a total noob at headphones. Why am I searching? I loved music since I can remember and when another pair of headphones killed themselves I decided to get myself a good...

Hey Head-Fiers!    im looking for a pair of headphones with preferably a detachable cable. I don't own a amp/dac so that may have to be included within the budget.     The type of music i listen to is hardcore/post-hardcore, alternative, metal/alternative metal, rock, techno, i do...

I'm looking for suggestions. I recently had her up and she was listening to my HD600s and instantly fell in love with them. That being said, while I do find them fitting myself for the genres she listens to, I cant help but feel there might be better options out there for her. She's looking to...

Hey guys, I joined just so I could make this post. Right now, I have about a $300 budget to buy new headphones. My favorite and most expensive pair right now are the Sony MDR-7506, so I really don't have much experience with extremely HQ headphones. I tried on a pair of the MDR 1R, and I...

Hello   I am thinking of buying one of these two headphones but I did not have a chance to try them on. I mainly listen to Jazz, pop and Hip hop, which means I love to have a great bass boost.    I would like to know the comparison between them on comfort, isolation, and sound quality...

Hello   I am thinking of buying one of these two headphones but I did not have a chance to try them on.    I would like to know the comparison between them on comfort, isolation, and sound quality.   V55 costs only 100 dollars and 1R costs 200 dollars    If you have an experience...

Hi, I have the Inspirations right now, bought them half off on Craigslist for $150 and all I can say is that I love them! The best headphones I have bought! I know Monster is taboo here but I personally think they sound excellent and nowhere near the 'Beats' line of products yet still retaining...

So I'm looking for a nice pair of closed over ear cans for up to 400 and I can't figure out what my best options are.    I was thinking    M-100   Sony MDR-1R (mixed reviews about this one thought, some say they love it and others don't think its very good at all)   Audio...

Hi,    Will this Sony MDR-1R works fine with Galaxy S3 in all aspects with the cable provided with this headphone pair? Like the microphone and jack 3.5 mm   And would this work with laptop also via cable for taking conf calls etc?   I ask all these as the specs says the cable is...

I was just in J&R Music World in lower Manhattan on 7/31/13.  They had both of these closed-back "cans" there, and I was able to do a quick comparison. Both cans twist and lay flat for packing, but that's maybe where the similarity ends.  From what I heard, there was little difference at the...
