as the title states are the JVC-HARX900'S Still the goto cans for at the sub 70.00 price point or can I do better I am not afraid of modding to get what I want
mostly gonna be used for music and gaming nothing anyware near hardcore

 

[Onemoar]

anyone ? the 900's are 60.00 shipped on newegg ..

What about Takstar 2050s or Takstar TS-617?
 
I hear these are excellent and comparable to cans more than double the price.

I was looking at the takstar 2050's as well never really had a pair of open can's before I wonder how they would stand up to a fully modded HARX900
TS-617's are a bit out of my budget and the driver specs are mediocre compared to the HARX900's

The 2050s aren't really open just have a vent. The 671 are almost exactly $70 shipped.

 

[Onemoar]

the cheapest I could find the 671's where 115.00 shipped ( I don't shop on amazon)
the 2050's look better on paper the drivers go lower and have a lower impedance rating my AMP isn't that great Fiio e6

The 2050s aren't really open just have a vent. The 671 are open and are $70 on Amazon.

anyone else have a opinion before i Pull the trigger on the 900's ?
I will be modding them the Takstars really don't look that good on paper with lower sound pressure and less range/sound stage ..
they are gonna be used for gaming so I would rather have the deeper sound stage and weight isn't really a issue

 

[Onemoar]

ordered the 900's for 40.00 shipped we are done here

I'm a bit late to the party but i think the RX700/900 are still hard to beat. Feel good for your decision. 

 

[Onemoar]

yea I owned a pair of HARX-700's and frankly the takstar's have lower specs then the jvcs they are also physically smaller
