I've been toying with the idea of getting a new pair of in-ear headphones, and recently the Thinksound ms01 has come to my attention. The thing is, I already do pretty much all of my listening with my HiFiMan RE-400's, which I understand are some of the best IEM's in their price range. I like...

Can anyone point me out to inexpensive around-the-ear headphones with a similar sound signature to HiFiMan's RE-400's?

My dad got the Beats Tour headphones for around $50 on Ebay for my brother, but he hasn't showed them to him yet. I'm thinking I'll have him sell the Tours for, like, $100 and then he can turn around and buy some good earphones. How would you compare Tour Beats to, say, the UE350's?

My dad has been wanting to get my brother a pair of new earphones for his birthday, and that's when I broke it to him that there's a lot of far better brands than Bose and Beats and stuff like that. I told him that I'd email him a list of options. So what are some good earphones that cost, let's...

Now, here's a stupid question-how would you compare the RE-400 to Bose's in-ear headphones or even their noise-cancelling circumaural 'phones? Like, in terms of sound signature, soundstage, and the overall quality of the music? I'm asking because I'm really used to Bose headphones-the in ear...

I live in the Kansas City, MO area.

What portable amps would you recommend for the RE-400's? Also, how's the soundstage and instrument separation?

Is there any place I can go to try out HiFiMan headphones? I'm looking to buy some-specifically the RE-400 earphones, and maybe with a portable amp or something. Naturally I'd like to see if I can try them first.

I prefer clear and balanced sound, with clean and at least somewhat punchy bass. I like good isolation and well-defined timbres and texture on drums and stuff too.

I've been looking at the HiFiMan RE-400 earphones as an option for entry-level audiophile earphones, and I was wondering what you all thought of them? They seem like amazing headphones, and for only $100 at that. Would they be good for listening to classic rock?

Would you say the UE600's are good entry-level audiophile earphones? How might you compare them to Bose's or Grado's earphones?

Alright, so the current pair of cans I own are Bose's QC15 cans, for those of you who don't already know, and basically I'm in pursuit of something bigger and better that also costs less. I'm considering Grado's SR60i or maybe Sennheiser's HD518 or 558. I'm going to try and test any pair of...

Alright, so I'm thinking about getting a pair of Grado SR60i cans and maybe a pair of Logitech's UE600 earphones. Naturally I'm going to test both headphones before I purchase them, but that's really kind of my hypothetical wish list. I guess. Anyway, would I have to purchase a separate portable...

So how are the UE 600's?
