Wouldn't it be more cost effcient to start with the th600 or thx00? They basically use the same drivers, right?

Nah.

THx00/Emu Teak have the same driver, TH600 and TH900 drivers are similar but the magnet chamber is deeper than thx00/EMU driver. That increases bass response. I talked to fostex, after some tests, distortion ratings are better on the th900 driver than th600 driver despite similar costs and performance.

I get my parts from Fostex so I didnt buy an entire th900. Just drivers. Anyways, next mod, increase bass response by another 5dB. Bass is love, bass is life.

And make a paper shaker video.

Woah I did not know they will sell you just the 900's drivers if you want. That's what I need...

was thinking of buying a JVC HA-SZ2000
 
wondering if you listen to psy-trance, if the details will shine or at least, that the treble will make a satisfactory sounds, when going on with the drum percussion in 130 bpm
 
and the details and melody?
 
 
 
how bad or good is really the midrange and treble on the JVC HA-SZ2000?

no psytrance here but lots of 90s house & techno  - close enough. the details definitely shine through, don't worry. but - if you don't think they have enough detail, and are willing to sacrifice some of the physical impact, the brainwavz pads are a good option.

i have a pair of zmf lamb earpads, will they work on these or are they too big?

would tell you if i had any idea, i never buy lamb/leather/etc pads

 

[nlse]

are the SZ 2000 the best, if pads are changed, or are there any advantages with the 1000 model, even with pads changed?

They will fit, and turn them into bass city.

I would say the th-X00

Thanks will look into them.

Anyone else have an opinion for the best happy medium for tight bass impact+midrange?

Duuuuude, if i can make my own set with fostex drivers, that are fully closed, and portable, it would be my end all search for a protable set.
 
I need some pic of the monsters you've create, Dr. Fostex-stein

I see that you have he lcd 2.2.  You tried to eq them yet, I could get mine going pretty good. Just picked up a set of oppo pm-3 and I could get those to ws1100 levels.
 
moral of story,  EQ is your friend
 
IF your just in the market for another set or just want more impact, then go for it.
 
Also, check out the Technics, they are very good set for the money.  They do need a butt load of power and the stock pads are ass.

Heya,yeah I run all my headphones thru vintage receivers,which have low/mid/high EQ plus that magic "loudness" button.

I find that my HE-500s have better impact than my LCD 2s,but the Audezes extend further.

Im looking for a fun set of thumping cans,TIGHT thump tho,where the "V-shape" isnt that pronounced for my rock music.

Reading thru some old threads I saw Ultrasone mentioned,but Ive never heard them before and I know many folks here dont like them.

Which Technics are we talking about?

technic dp-rh1250
 
for being a dj set these things are really balanced, good mids and non-peaky treble.   I was really surprised when I first listened to them.  I thought I was going to get the usual DJ sound sig, not in the technics case.  Like I said the pads are bad, it really shallow and i couldn't keep them on for a long period of time.

I did a search on the thread and can't believe I didn't find some matches on the Ultrasone Pro900 with the Lawton Angle Denon pads.
That's an incredible, jaw dropping, bass combo.
 
Having gone through several well tiered headphones, including the Ultrasone Signature Pro (which is a frequent comparison), nothing comes close to Pro 900 + Lawton pads for me, in terms of bass hit and aggressiviness.
 
If someone has the chance to try it, do it and you won't regret!!!
