Hi members Iam new here. I need help in buying headphone.
Actually iam confuded between ath m50x and senn hd 598. Which is best?
I never heared ath before and i like more detailed and natural, pleasing sound ..
Any suggestions?
Note i have fiio e12 to power my headphones

 

[gotak]

More requirements?
Open vs closed?
Portable?
Music?

 

[kirthik]

Open..
Truly for music audiophile grade..
For portable player only but no prob about impedance since I have e12...

 

[gotak]

Think you answers your own question. The ATH-M50x is closed and is really more of a lower mid to mid range headphone.

 

[kirthik]

So is ath m50x best under 320$?

At that price range, and being that you already own an amp, you could even look at:

AKG K702
AKG Q701
Beyerdynamic DT880
Beyerdynamic DT990

 

[AlrightMister]

+1 for Q701 and DT880. Find somewhere to try them if you can.

I would recommend the V-Moda M-100.

 

[OMGLadyGaga]

Sony MA900 definitely

I own vsonic vsd1 lm and HD 449 vsonic is very neutral and I love it but in hd449 mids are little backward and dark..so I prefer neutral sounding with mids little forward ..which headphone can satisfy me in that case friends?

I think this is a little backwards, the vsonics have slight bass boost and slight treble boost and the mids are back. The 449 sounded mid forward with bass rolled off and treble rolled off, so i think what you like about the vsonics is the exciting lower and mid treble emphasis which gives everything a more crispy and lively glossy nature. If that indeed is the case, i think the M50x would be a good choice

Thank you members finally choose to buy m50x
