Just bought transporter se for $730 after tax. But suddenly found that it don't have earphone output...Could anyone suggest some combinations of headphone and amp(with two earphone output better)? I like rock and new age music. For the headphones, I'm thinking of HD600/650, HE-500, mdr-z1000 or...

Is it the Z1000?

I was reading another thread and someone recommend the Q701s so I read a review about them.  They sound like nice headphones so I wondered what sort of characteristics do open vs. closed headphones have?  I was a bit concerned by how delicate these cans seem to be by design since I'd have to put...

I've been kind of out of the loop with new headphones lately, and am wondering what closed headphones out there are very mid-centric. I've owned the AKG K271s (which are great) and the Sony MDR-CD900STs (which are beyond marvelous), and I've heard, very briefly, Beyerdynamic DT48's, but I'm...

So guys, mind telling me why there isn't a Sony fan club? I'm pretty sure there are some sony fans out there, just wondering why I haven't seen one.  There seem to be ultrasone, grado, and fan clubs for specific phones though.    If you could tell me, thanks!

I recently got the HM-602 and I have sold out almost all my portable gear. I just find the sound of this dap to be simply great! The analogue-like sound of the non oversampling td1543 dac chip is just what I have been looking for. I enjoy it very much with Yuin G1A. This is my favourite. The 150...

Hello,   I am hoping someone could help me out in finding a pair of headphones that would best suit my needs...   1) Price Range: $250-350 2) Over-Ear, Closed (maybe Noise Canceling?) that are good for all types of music... I listen to a lot of progressive house as well as a lot of...

I'm looking to buy a closed can, very noise isolating, with good bass.   I'm looking to spend around 200 and i have came up with a few choices but am not sure which is best in terms of overall sound quality.   So far I have been interested in the:   Sony z1000 Pioneer hdj 2000...

Getting right to the point.   Used for:   -producing music, especially electronic. -listening to music for pleasure (obviously) -gaming (counter strike, horror games, etc.) -closed-back -analog, not USB -as flat as it can get -soundstage not too important, but sure why not...

I definitely do not consider myself an audiophile yet, but I am starting to develop my ear for it. I am on a serious search for some new cans. I've owned the Audio Technica M50s which I loved, but the wiring frayed in the input jack. So I am planning on getting those completely re-cabled because...

It has turned out to be a particularly hot summer this year, and I am finding my MDR-7520 too hot to wear for hours at a time now. I don't think there is anything that can be done about the headband, but the earpads are replaceable. 1. Does anyone know whether the MDR-7520/Z1000 can use the...

I've been using a Dell M6700 mobile workstation for work and play. Recently I purchased a Sony MDR Z1000 for both of my laptop and my cellphone which is Galaxy  note 3. Now I'm thinking of geting a DAC to maximum the performance of Z1000. So I'm seeking advice here.   I guess my laptop has...

Hi guys,   Sony tried to charge me £240!!! for the cable only!! And this is from 2 different companies. The 7520 costs around £400 here and it does not make sense that the cable is half of the cost, I will not accept that, it is CRAZY! They said that it is because the cable uses 'speclialist...

As it turns out Sony is very kind with Asian's :P. I got the zx700 for Rs5200 in India around 100$. I wanted to get the z1000 but was sure that a $500 headphone in US would be around 600-650$ in India but I was wrong the z1000 was only made for Asia and all the US versions were imports and...

Hello everyone. I'd like your opinion on what you personally think would be the most suitable over ear (not on ear) headphone for use at a library. I've been spending more and more time at the local library, and listening to earphones is not as enjoyable for me. I want a set of headphones that...

Please stay tuned for our in-depth HeadRoom reviews and head-to-head shoot-outs on these new Sony monitoring cans within the next few days!   http://www.headphone.com/brands/sony.php   http://www.headphone.com/rightbetweenyourears/       Cheers,   jorge HeadRoom...

I currently own hd598 and I like them, but sometimes I fill that something is missing, I don't know what. Then I found the z1000 that look like a good headphone for me: very good SQ (in the same level as hd650/dt880) that are also portable and quite easy to drive. Do the z1000 worth it? Will I...

So my ATH-A900 are nearing the limits of wear and tear. Been looking for an upgrade, and have narrowed my decision to the W1000X or the Sony Z1000. I need headphones that are relatively easy to drive and do not need a massive/expensive amp to bring the best out of them. I think I would prefer...

When it comes to pure sound quality (accuracy, details, sound neutrality, frequency range) and suitabilty for jazz, classic and some folk, independent rock with a tendency to acoustic instruments, what would be the better device for my ears?

If my definitions of these bass terms are correct:   Punchy = quick, sharp, tight (as in no reverb) bass notes Impact = high level of force or great weight in delivery (like the thumping of a subwoofer)   I have to ask, can you have impact without punch or punch without impact?  How...

Has any one heard both the Sony Z1000's and the Denon D5000's to be able to to do a direct comparison or especially with the Z10000s just elaborate on what few reviews there seem to be currently on here for the Sony's.   I am without full cans in my inventory due to selling my K702s to fund...

Hi all! I am currently using Bose QuietComfort 3, and Triple-fi 10 pro daily, and I am looking for an upgrade for my Bose QuietComfort 3, I find Bose's bass kinda muddy and blurry >< not nice! I want a pair of headphones that has detachable cables and it's closed back, because I will be mainly...

hi, I have a question for those who have tried these two models. I'd use them primarily to listen to rock music. which one has a better soundstage? which of the two has a greater extension of the low frequencies? In your opinion, what should be the choice? thanks anyway.   P.S. i'm...

What is the difference in features and sound quality? Is the flac on the f series gapless (with native sony player)?

Thought I show you guys how the two compares. Hope you like the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K87LjaLNORo
