I just wanted to get some recommendations on some songs to download that sound really good on headphones.

A mod will move this thread...

but if you are reading this shinjen, go check out the music discussion board on head-fi. you'll find lots of recommendations there.

also, when you say 'download', i'm assuming you're using mp3. if you are using a nice pair of headphones, mp3 is usually a frowned-upon format, since it is somewhat lossy. but then again, the first time i ever used crappy headphones against a crappy pair of speakers, i heard so much i never heard on the speakers. try stuff with little nuances... i like things like squarepusher, aphex twin, matmos, mouse on mars, bjork, etc.

I have the ultrasone HFI 650's and i was wondering what mp3s have a very noticeable sound stage on headphones

You mean you want to know what legally purchased CDs and offerered-for-free-download mp3s have a good soundstage on headphones, don't you?
