these headphone look phenomenal and I've heard they sound great but they are pretty pricy.

Hi,   So I see a bunch of these posts but nothing exactly specific to what I'm looking for.  I will be using these for work 5+ hours a day for sure.  Comfort is key!!  I know this is the portable headphones forum but that's not totally key, just need to be able to throw them in my bag when I...

Hey all-   I am looking to get a new set of cans for DJing. I DJ old school hip hop, funk and soul, and a tiny bit of electronica. For background: I previously had HD-25-II's. I had no complaints, but I wouldn't have minded slightly more bass on the low-end, I thought highs could be a...

I got a pair of DJ1s a little over a month ago from amazon.com and they were great for about 2 weeks. My friends and I all loved them they were very bassy and had excellent sound, but recently there has been a rather serious problem with them. They have lost like in my estimation maybe 60 to 70...

I'm looking for a nice head with booming bass and a good soundstage, without sacrificing comfort. I was thinking about either the dj1 or dt770 pro. What do you guys think?

Hello I am pretty new around here and I was wondering what good headphones I could get for around $300 and where I could get them at. Currently I have Beats Solos that are about a year old and until earlier today I've been finding out Beats are bad headphones apparently, so any help is...

I bought myself a pair of DJ1's a few months back to compliment my 225i's for use with hip hop and electronic music. I'm quite happy with the sound quality, though I do think people were exaggerating the bass quantity a wee bit it's certainly a bassy headphone. What I am disappointed in is the...

Hi head-fi, I've been lurking here for some months already, but I now need your help to choose my next headphones. I'm looking for big, comfortable, full-sized headphones to plug into my laptop and desktop (onboard audio). I mostly listen to rock (radiohead, the doors, pink floyd) and electronic...

Hey guys, I've owned a pair of Creative Aurvana Live's for about 2 and a half years now, they were the first pair of decent cans I owned (bought on recommendation from this forum) and I have been incredibly happy with them. However this morning I tripped on them whilst they were plugged in to my...

aaarrrggghhhh   In a bit of a muddle at the moment. I decided late yesterday that I want to invest in a decent pair of cans, but I'm struggling to pick one.   I listen to all kinds of music but especially bass heavy stuff like drum & bass, hip hop, dubstep, electronica etc I also listen...

Hey guys I'm looking for headphones around 200-250. I've used the m50'a and low te way they sound, but I HATE how they feel. They end up hurting my ears after 45 minutes and it's unbearable. Now I've tried Bose and te beats line, and as bad as they are I really like the comfort on them. Can you...

Sorry to have to make another one of these threads but I've reached the point where I no longer feel I'll find my perfect headphones alone. I've done a lot of lurking but it just seems like there are so many options for each of which I manage to find someone who's been dissatisfied with them...

     After reading around through many threads here on head-fi, I've come to realize that much of what characterizes some headphones as being 'better' than others is purely a matter of opinion. As such, I would like to ask for some opinions.        I'm looking for a pair of full sized...

im looking into getting my first good pair of headphones.  i was thinking beats but i have a hunch they really arent as great as people say.  anyway, i mainly listen to house/ electro music.  i love some good bass, but only if its high quality.  i dont want to pay over like $200 really, and i...

I have a $120 budget so I'm looking on Amazon. I found the Audio Technica M50s's but they have a V shaped signature which I don't like. I also saw the Sony MDR-XB700's but someone said it's lacking on the mids and highs.   Things I'm looking for: - Design/build   - I would prefer a black...

Helping my friend buy some headphones, I think she was inspired after hearing me rave about my DJ1s that I recently got lol. Don't want her wasting her money so I'm starting this thread. I figure I will also try and get her into the audiophile world with me seeing how I am I beginner too, and...

Ordered the DJ1s with the Fiio e11 and they got here yesterday. These are my first headphones, and the only others I have ever heard are some display models of Beats and my friends Souls (not very impressive for $300) When I first listened to these things.... Oh my god.... I was blown away. I...

Hey, newcomer to the Headphones world here!   I always used the old Ipod earbud, but now they are broken, so I though about buying a headphone.I like rock music, most grunge, and mpb(brazillian music), also, I am not a competitive player, but I would like to play Team Fortress 2 with the...

I want to get some over ear, closed  headphones for my iPod and computer. Looking for headphones that work well with rap and hip hop that have a good amount of bass that isn't overpowering. But they also have to have some style cuz I'm 15. Headphones I've looked at: audio technica ath m-50...

So I have never really listened to many headphones, I have always used earbuds (skullcandy, sony) and currently using the klipsch is4. My friend has some souls and he kept raving that they "are WAY better than beats!" so I tried them and they seemed alright, but for $300 bucks? Hell no... so I...

Hi Guys,   Sorry for my english I am french (first mistake)   I plan to buy a pair of cans that would be better than the ones I own right now. It won't be hard as these are crap :       I feel like I have to apologize... I bought this online (second mistake) and kept them...

Budget: $150 Max Genre: Metal/Heavy Metal Sound: I like Accurate Balanced But I really enjoy all the instruments Amp: No Amp   A lot of my songs are old songs that are Raw so sometimes accurate headphones may make it sound bad I've heard   I really need the comfort and portability...

So I have a Ultrasone DJ1 with a T420 Lenovo Laptop and I'm wanting more out of my headphones in terms of sound quality. I was looking for details on my sound card but I couldn't find any info on it. (It's a Conexant 20672 SmartAudio HD) I'm on a budget, hoping to get one around the 150 USD...

Hey people.  I've just been introduced to REALLY hearing music for the first time.  Sadly, it was Dre beats, but at least it got me in the door.  So I've done a lot of researching to see what can handle the high highs for trance, yet still give the vibrating bass for dubstep.  I'm mostly only...
