Grado PS-1

I’ve got some ATH L3000’s I haven’t opened in the closet so I can’t rate them.

HF-1: only negative is the highs, gives me a headache at times.

MS-1: 2nd by only a tiny bit

UM2: these has been in its case for a few months now, too lazy to use 'em at school because it's a hassle to put it on just for the 10 minutes walking to the next class.

cans that get the most listening time are:

Plantronics a.90: use this for gaming

Apple iPod stock earbuds: yes, stock Apple garbage. I use these over my UM2's because I can just take them off and on without much hassle. I think I'm going to get some KSC-35's to replace these.

HF-1

MS-1 & UM2 are in storage.

I really dislike the Bose TriPort. The one I have has a broken headband, and therefore loses to the iPod earbuds by a huge margin.

[skudmunky]

for music: Koss portaPro > Creative HN-505 > Yamaha earbuds.

for gaming, the HN-505 edges out over the portaPro slightly, because of the sound cancellation. Also, the portaPros bring out all the impurities in CS 1.6.

Rank of headsets I enjoy...
1. Senn HD650/Zu cable: (My reference)
2. UM2 IEM: (Most used during my long business travels)
3. Koss 35: (This little thing is just enjoyable at unreal value. I like them so much...I got 5 from eBay Creative store for about $10/piece. You can never have too many backups!)
4. Shure E4: (I may sell it. I only need one IEM, my UM2)
5. Beyer 250/80: (I don't use it much since I have Senn650...but it is enjoyable...and currently selling)
6. Apple Ear bulb: (In my opinion, better than AKG K26P in terms of overall tonal balance)
7. AKG K26P: (My worst headset, in my opinion. It has way too much bass for me to enjoy the music).

[granodemostasa]

1. Sennheiser PX100-most useful

2. Sennheiser HD650-best sounding

3. Sennheiser EH150-don't use it anymore

4. Apple earbuds-good for taking a beating

 

[Emon]

1. Grado SR-325
2. Sennheiser HD414
3. Koss KSC-35 tied with Etymotic ER-6

The HD414s and ER-6s require significant equalization in the bass region to be placed where they are, but once there, they rock pretty hard. The HD414s are quite bright, too. There are a few peaks that kind of make you twitch on a few notes here and there, but overall, they're still fantastic phones, especially being over 30 years old!

Out of all the headphones I've owned, I'd have to say something like this:

1. HD600 tied with SR-325
2. Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro
3. HD414
4. KSC-35 tied with ER-6
