I am looking for a closed back headphone to go with my HD800s which I love, but can't use sometimes when it's too loud in the office. I have Z7M2 and while they are very comfortable and alright-sounding, I need more soundstage. Also Z7M2 suffer from a weird bug - they hiss (I am using Topping...

Hello, friends! I'm looking for the best amplifier for my mdr z1r headphones, now I listen to music with oppo ha2 se, but I feel that I would like a little better sound. I am looking for a desktop amplifier, not portable. While leaning towards the Sony brand amplifier ta-zh1es, I liked it...

I guess I need to post my first thread here. So here it is. Don't know what to choose, Z1R or TH900 MK2. so i'm looking for suggestions. Thanks.

I just compared the HD800S with the MDR-Z1R and thought I'd put my impressions here. Soundstage: Nearly a tie. The HD800S has slightly more separation and width. The Z1R has slightly more height. The Z1R's soundstage is exceptional for being a closed-backed headphone. Transparency: The HD800S...

Hello everyone! I'm fairly new to head-fi and am looking for some advice on my next pair of closed-back purchase. I already have an HD 650 and LCD 2 for open back, and now I am trying to decide between the Sony MDR-Z1R or the Fostex TH-900 MK2. I'm open to any and all recommendations. My source...
