Hello guys,

I have the Takstar Pro80s and the Hi2050s, what do you suggest I'd try? I'm liking the Pro80s better than the Hi2050s, the bass feels just right and not too much for my ears. I'd like to try a headphone that puts the vocals more in front and that doesn't "veil" them for so to speak.

I'm currently using the HiFiMeDIY Sabre DAC 2 with integrated amp. 

Get the hd600 and be set for life lol

few people are going crazy for Somic MH463 for it's sound and saying that they have better overall details and bass over Pro80. Somic are open headphones and not that comfortable compared to Pro80. I own pro80 and love their sound. I wonder how better Somic could get.

Has anyone tried these earphones?

At least one guy claimed the Somic's had a lot more bass compared to the Pro80's, made me uncomfortable so I cancelled my MH463 order

On the other hand the HI2050 arrived today, sounds pretty good for $30

If you're in the US or UK check out the Philips SHP9500.

I'm sorry I'm not the right person to ask how because still learning the terms use to explain these items.
 
This will help you

  No contest, E80 IMHO
 
The E80 needs more power, has a similar tuning with a little more bass, way more texture and timbre

Is there a thread for the E80?  If not, you should start one

Looks really good, don't tempt me man.
 
 
I tried looking at the tmall review of it http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a1z3o.7695460.14.2.j4OOBm&id=43817769999 and from my limited googlchina language understanding, it seems to be smooth unfatiguing warm phones that is neither bassy or spiky. That removable cable looks sweet too, hmmm...

I'd like to try modding one of these cheap headphones. By modding I don't just mean changing the pads or doing a removable cable mod. I'd like to try mass loading, dampening, etc. 
 
Has anyone successfully done this enhancing its sound in a positive way? Or is there any headphone that you would recommend for this?

I'd say that your best shot is the Fostex T50RP (or one of its siblings) if you're able to find a pair at a decent price.

There's also a tiny bit to read about modding them
