    Calling all Sony MDR-Z1000 in Japan.

    I was told that the Red "for studio" sticker on the headphones which I like a lot is only on those that are sold in Japan.  Did your come with the sticker?

    Is the Ultrasone PRO 900 worth it?

    I'm debating on whether or not I should even drop $350 on a pair. Are they worth that much? What is your opinion on these Ultrasone?

    Absolute Best Possible Headphones to Use With an iPod?

    Hey, this is my first post to the forums as I am in the market for a new pair of "higher-end" headphones.   I purchased the Bose QC3's last week however ended up returning them immediately and couldn't justify spending $350 for headphones that were just "okay". I like the pronounced bass...

    Portable / Full Size Headphones for iPods / iPhones, with BIG bass that DO NOT require an AMP - after some opinions

    Right...   I'm after a Portable / Full Size set of Headphones for my iPhones. Ideally they will be full sized /closed back, as they will be for use in the office and around town.   MUST have BIG bass as I listen to Drum and Bass, electronic etc. Bass must be controlled though, not sloppy...

    Small upgrade from HJE900 (portable HP or IEM)

    Hi,   I love my Panasonic RP-HJE900 for the quick sound fix I use them for. I used to always carry them in my pocket in case I should get bored somehow. But now I gave them away to a hot girl so I either have to get a new pair or upgrade (200 €)... or ask back for them!   What I love...

    Sony MDR-Z1000 - Redefining standards?

    So, I bought a pair of these today at full UK retail (£500) - but, I have to say that from the couple of hours I've had them on my head, they are truly worth it :D   They make my old favourite on the go cans (Senn HD25) sound so lifeless and plasticky - it is really shocking to think that...

    Sony MDR-Z1000 vs...

    Hey All,   After reading through all 59 pages of the MDR-Z1000 thread, I have placed an order for a pair - to collect on Thursday (albeit, as they are as rare as rocking horse poop in the EU, they are at full list price), anyways - I have a question which I'm hoping someone can answer...  ...

I found nothing on the headphones on this site through google search of site:head-fi.org etc. What are your responses on them?   Here's the site: http://www.beatsbydre.com/products/Products.aspx?pid=B6387&cat=1

    Itching 2 Upgrade ! [m50]

    When I got my First set of nice Cans a year ago [the m50's] they really sounded like magic. But I really want to experiment here and I'm really looking to upgrade the arsenal and the problem is i'm not sure which way I want to go.   I do most of my serious listening at home but sometimes , I...

    What set of cans has the best earpads?

    I have had loads of pairs of cans, the disparity in quality of pads is something that i find annoying. Now i always try to get a feel of the pads before a purchase.   The best i have had were (ahem) Bose AE1 pads, they are soft beyond belief but unfortunately  sound meh. Beats...

    Would like a new pair of headphones for use with PC/Xonar Essence ST Soundcard

    As the title suggests, only thing is, I have an Amazon UK giftcard so I'm limited to buying from Amazon only. Based on what they sell, what would you guys recommend for use with the sound card?   Currently using the HD555 and whilst it's good, I want something with more detail, clarity and...

    Sony Z1000 or Ultrasone Pro 900

    I am upgrading from my Audio-Technica M50. I have narrowed down my choices down to the Sony Z1000 and Ultrasone Pro 900. Can someone with both these headphones explain the differences between them? I listen to electronic, JPop, jazz, classical and funk music (in order of time spent listening)...

    Mid-fi closed headphones for the Etymotic lover?

    I need that same analytical sound in a full sized closed headphone. Preferably a DJ style one as they clamp and isolate well usually. Budget is: 'mid fi' so no suggestions too extravagant please.   I can't wear IEM's anymore as my doctor advised against it because of a recurring ear...

    Audio Technica ES10 and Sony Z1000, which one to get?

    Looking for some portable headphones, as much as I loved the Edition 8 I still can't justify the price for it using as a portable as I am only looking for one used outside. I have heard the ES10, easily one of the best portable I have heard, up there with the Edition for sure. Now, the thing...

    Sony MDR-ZX700 vs MDR-Z1000 - Early Impressions...

    ...It is a good job I got a fairly hefty bonus from work this month, paying full retail for both of these... but, in its own way, it has been totally worth it :)   Now, with anything I mention below, it has to be said that these are early impressions, with the Z1000 only having about 20hrs...

    Questions about the MDR-Z1000's...

    I just ordered them from my sony friend, $280 usd shipped, now they might take a while to arrive, but those of you who have them, what do I have to look forward to? I had the CD3000's and have the HD650's so if you could compare/contrast to those it would help. What does the packaging look like...

    I want sennheiser HD600 bass and Sony SA5000 treble, any can out there?

    I had both of those headphones but I sold them. I am now missing the bass I had on the hd600 and the treble on the sa5000. The mid range can be from any of those. Do you guys know of any headphones that sound like that?
