I have a 10 yr old pr of Grado SR80, which I like, and RE-0 from HiFiMan, plus a couple Yuin...  All sub-$100.  I'm waffling between Senn HD-25-1 ll and V Moda crossfade m80 right now.  I'll probably use them primarily at home, mostly direct from a tube CDP (Eastern Electric minimax, which...

Hello. I would like to buy Colorway C3. For this moment i have 2 headphones: Koss Porta Pro Sennheiser HD555 I need headphones for hardcore, melodic death metal etc. I don't know that the Porta and HD555 are ok with sound of C3. If they didn't what kind of headphones would you recommend? I...

(First post so be nice)   Soo i just ordered the Vmoda M-80s for 130 dollars and i was wondering if i should cancel or not how do they compare in terms of bass when going up against the beats studio   Also i have the HD428s and was wondering what to expect in comparison to these? Are...

I know NOTHING about headphones and hope that someone on this site may be able to help me. I have a 16 year old daughter that asked for "Beats" for Christmas, I am a single mother and $300 is $$$$ to put out for headphones....especially after reading the reviews She listens to music on her...

The title says most. I am wondering, what you would get, if you were me. The budget is around 350 dollars, and alternatively I can get my money back on my new dt-880, which would get me approximately 350 dollars extra.   I would really like a CIEM, but i am only 17, so i guess it would be...

Hi head-fiers, a friend of mine is looking for headphones and went to me (her local headphone geek) and is looking for cans that look good, good for pop and most other genres, under 100 pounds sound amazing (she didn't ask for that but I'd cringe if they weren't) and won't deafen her (she's...

I was going to get the M-80, but amazon just released their deals and those two have pretty great deals. I don't have a single "hi-fi" earphone or headphone, so I was wondering if the improvements of the m-80 are worth paying the extra $70+  for. Also since the x10s are incredibly "relatively"...

Just bought my first pair of high quality headphones and earphones to use with my laptop (onboard realtek stuff so probably not much to expect out of it) and my iphone 5.   I got some x10s and m80s, do they need to be ampd? I have no clue in this department and really have no idea how to...

So I've been having a pretty complicated issue with my headphone jacks. Most importantly, today I just received a Fiio E10. My M80's work fine using the line out port, but when plugged into the headphone port, the sound is super warped, like there is no trebble. The sound however does sound fine...

Question 2 of my intro to head-fi! Hello folks.   My V-Moda M80s came in a couple of days ago. Right out of the box, I noticed the red shields I ordered seemed off (My design came through perfectly though! Kudos to you, V-Moda for getting those tiny pixels in that image for my desired fading...

So my cousin hit me up asking about what a good pair of headphones for christmas would be. Last summer I educated her about dre-beats and whatnot, that you really not getting what you pay for.   She wants a pair of on-ears, so like dre-beat size (I dunno I don't own any on ears haha), and no...

  Hi, I'm new here on Head-fi and am interested in buying some good headphones for while I'm working. I work in a factory generally dont have to walk far from my station for 2-3 hours at a time. I want something that doesn't require an amp but I may be interested in using one in the future. I...

Im looking for a pair of closed portable full size headphones and by portable i mean walking around with them in the city. I like strong base as i listen to lots of dance music but i still like the highs of classical and rock aswell,I would like them to reasonably neutral and clear,I will not be...

Trying to prove a point to my friend. I think the M80's will be better but she seems to like the P3 better. I'll show this to my friend, any help? Also, recommend any headphone if you think she would like it better. She doesn't need a bassy signature so shoot away.

I seem to post quite a few threads asking for advice on headphones, even though I read a trillion reviews around here. Anyway, I'm thinking about getting the Audio Technica ATH-ES10 for Christmas as I don't have a pair of high end (not ultra high end like the Sennheiser HE90) over-ears. I've...

I still hear some people say that M-80 is the better option.

Hello once again, Head-Fi! My question today is: what headphones do females like? Particularly college age. My girlfriend has been needing some OVER EARS for some time now, and it's going to be Christmas soon... So, what better time than now. Alright, for starters, she is particularly fond of...

rules as follows 1 got to be indistructable (well at least as close as possible) 2 got to have different drivers 3 got to be full sized closed cans lets find these hard headphones who think they're strong enough n.b. no tests will actually be done on them

i know the akg have a few models out. 3 i think. and so does v-moda. ive heard good things about the m80's. but not much about the tiesto akg's? i listen to edm, rock, hip hop etc any info would be great

After a pain-staking search for some new HPs, these two seem to perfectly fit my specifications. On-ear (Large enough to suit my quality and sound preference, but small enough to use whilst on the move), stylish and within a £150 budget. After reading a lot about both, I'm unsure as to whether...

buying very soon. i hear good things about all 3 of these headphones. i was also considering the beats mixr's but i already know what everyone will say about them!

Hello Head-fi community!   This is my first post, so I'm pretty excited.   I need your help on deciding which headphones to get. Here are some of the qualities I value from most to least:   1. Sound Quality 2. Price (Under ~$300) 3. Design (I like simple, clean designs) 4...

So my 11 year old brother and his friend come up to me the other day and his friend asks me "Is it true, do you really have 3 ~1500$ headphones?" And I say yes, why? He wanted to know if it's true that beats aren't good for the price, and I told him.   But my brother (knowing that beats are...

ok so i am looking for a new pair of around the ear headphones (would be open to over the ear) i go to school and commute so i am thinking closed back would be my best choice so minimal leakage would be good but i also do a great deal of listening at home price range: would like to be in...

i need comfortable headphones for listening at home and on the road to pop and rock. i like good strong bass but not to take over the mids-highs
