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...

Hey guys, my setup is a Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250 ohm with a Fiio E9 amp and Creative X-fi Titanium sound card (not HD version).  I loved them for months and months after I originally bought them but now I no longer feel like it has that type of punchy bass that I want (I guess I'm a...

Hey guys, first post here after a long delay in registering on the site (for some reason the registration page was bugged at my home).   I have been looking at three headphones (M50, HFI-580, and the DJ1 Pros) for the last three days as they are my first step up in the audio world as I am...

As the title says, I'm looking for a pair of comfortable headphones for those long study sessions. I might also use them for listening to music on the way to class, but I have a pair of in ear (Shure SE215) that I usually use for that. I don't want to buy any old pair of headphones, and since I...

I'm looking for a comfortable pair of over-ear headphones for those long study sessions. After some research and your input, I've narrowed it down to these three- Ultrasone HIFI 580, Shure SRH 840, and Vmoda LP2. But that's where I get stuck. I do not know enough about headphones to make a...

Hey Head-Fi! I listen to rap/hiphop(taylor gang,wiz khalifa,snoop dogg,dr.dre and the other),house music(also progressive house,electro house) and almost everything they play in clubs. I want really good bass, but bass is not the only thing I want, I want also good highs,miss,lows(but bass most...

Ok all you head-fi'ers, I have a challenge for you. I want the BEST headphones for under $100, though I'm not really an "audiophile". Right now I have a pair of Sony XB-500s ($70), but they feel cheap, aren't good at keeping in sound, and are pretty bulky. Also I have found that the bass and...

Hi there ! I am looking for good headphones below/around $200. I have searched alot and I found the Audio Technica ATH-M50's. I heard alot of good things about this headphones but there's only one dealer I can find in my country (Belgium) that sells them and I don't know whether I can trust...

Hello guys! I’m new to the headphones world and i need your help! I’m a stating audiophile (sounds funny I know :D) and i have really hard times choosing myself a good pair of cans. The place where i live there is almost no good headphones, so i can’t try out anything myself and i don’t have...

Hello, all! I'm looking for great headphones for dubstep. I'm talking super bassy bass. I love the level of bass beats have, but they're way too expensive and over priced. On-ear prefered. Thank you for any help! I was looking at the sol republic tracks. Are they good for dubstep? My friend has...

        Hello,  As you could probably tell by me not knowing anything I'm doing, I'm new around here. But I have one question. I am interested in up-grading from Beats by Dre (Solos) And BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING, because I know how you all love Beats.. I am very aware that they are very...

Hey guys, this is my first post on Head-Fi. I'm looking for a good pair of headphones. I mainly listen to progressive house, electro house, and trance. Some ocassional Trap, Dubstep, and other EDM styles. I will be on a plane next month going to India that is 18 hours long (so a roundtrip of 36...

Hi guys! I'm relatively new with headphones, my current ones being some cheap $10 ovanns which I use for listening to music on my desktop. You may have heard 50 m50 threads but please, hear me out! For the past month or so I've been doing research on various headphones and these two come to mind...

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...

Hi guys   I'm hoping some of you can nudge me in the direction of my next set of headphones. I'm pretty amateur at this stuff, so please excuse the language and lack of knowledge.   I'm currently on Senn HD25s. I listen to Trance most of the time, so am looking for equivalent or...

I am currently using the 598 with ultrasone hfi580 mixed in depending on music but the ultrasones are uncomfortable and fatiguing and the 598 lack enough bass for my taste so I'm looking for a decent upgrade. I listen to classical,country, lots of Elvis and a little of most other genres mixed...

Hey guys   I've been a long time lurker and learned many things from your useful insights. I wanted to buy new headphones and trawled the internet for different ones. I came up with a top 5 list, narrowed it down to perhaps 3.    I read MalVeauX's terrific review of the M-Audio...

So i bought beats solo thinking it had good sound quality but it didnt so i was very sad but then i heard about the audio technica m50 being better than beats pro but for a cheaper price then i heard about the ultrasone hdfi? 580 and how its better for dubstep listeners(which i am) but i still...

Im looking to buy some full size over ear headphones, around 150. i was looking at the ath m50, as they are only 111 on amazon. any other recommendations?

Hi guys, I looked through the sidebar before posting here but I was curious if you guys could help me refine my search.   -Budget: 150-200ish max. -Prefer open but closed is good too. -No amp required. -Comfort is important, I'd like to be able to listen to these for long periods...

I am looking to upgrade my current headphones and have narrowed it down to four.   Audio Technica ath-m50 Ultrasone hfi-580 V-moda crossfade lp or lp2   I listen to rock, hip/hop, and rap.  I want something with good overall sound quality, but in particular great bass.  Portability...

My budget is 200. I'm looking for closed back, over ear headphones. I like bass, listening to Dubstep and other electronic genres. Please help, really need it. Would the LP2 be good? Or M80? Anything else perhaps?

I have some HD439's right now and they just dont have enough bass for my liking, I have heard some many mixed reviews on head-fi, amazon, and other sites. Some say they are really good for the money, and others will say that these are not worth 5$. So I thought I would start a thread. I listen...
