Jvc HARX900  or   Sony MDRXB700?
 
Hi
I would buy a pair of headphones, I'll use them for listening to classical music, and to compose music with the final. im actually interested in these two models, because I prefer to have a bit forced bass.
could you give me advices?
thank you

XB is no good for classical...It have LOADS of bass. 

 

[sugarkang]

What do you mean "forced bass?"

 

[Kamyar]

i mean "Reinforced", or a bit deeper than what would be real bass

 

[sugarkang]

I don't know the JVC, but the XB-700 does really low bass. 
I haven't heard a headphone do 20Hz better than this.
 
But as much as I like these headphones,
I can't imagine why you'd want them for classical music.

Thamk you
regardless of these two models, what do can recommend me?, I would like to spend 50 to 80$

 

[sugarkang]

I can't recommend really because I don't know anything about the JVC.
I can tell you that I own the XB-700 and I love it. 
But some people like the XB-500, so I cannot make a good recommendation for you without knowing more.

But really, don't recommend them for classical...Unfortunately I'm not experienced with headphones to recommend a better one.

You should consider getting Creative Aurvana Live, i think it really fit your bill, and budget.

If you listen to classical, the RX900's could be a nice choice...you can make mods to improve soundstage. 
They're good for the price. 

 

[Kamyar]

Thank you, I was just thinking about this, too.
do you know what is the major difference between RX900 and RX700?

 

[jacobap100]

i own the xb700 and I love them but i am selling them

 

[Kamyar]

what a pity! I'd buy yours, but I already ordered from an Italian site, (I live in Italy).
thank you anyway.but why you are going to sell them?

Try the RX700. Great sound for a super cheap price, mod friendly (felt mod - everyone should be able to do it), pair it with a cheap amp (FiiO E7) and it will sound even better. I listen to classical sometimes and RX700 sounds great for it.
