hi all. came here for headphone help a few years back and was very thankful for the advice and help narrowing my selection down. that selection wound up being the hifiman he400s. none of you could have been more correct about the sound. the problem wound up being durability. anyone who has...

hi all,   im looking for a pair of headphones for mixing. it seems the most popular are the athm-50, beyerdynamic 770 and 880, and akg 271, the shure 840 and 940, and a handful of sennheisers.   i own the hifiman hd400s. i understand they are not a mixing headphone, but the quality is...

id definitely be inclined to do that, is giving them better damping a no lose situation or cant go wrong?. cause i do like these pads. its fun to cover up the outside of the things. or even listen to whats coming out of outside. basically would better damping have any adverse effects of any kind...

also worth mentioning, toms on older recordings are far more present, powerful, and more dominant just like a good remaster. 

not sure if this is the appropriate forum, but i came here to try and find a consensus on a headphone choice. for my budget, the hifiman he400s were pretty much unanimously recommended. not sure i would have even come across them without coming here, even after pretty extensive searching.   ...

thanks at, will do! im glad it looks like sennheisers gonna be my choice, it hurt not to go with them, in favor of the hifimans. thanks again 

hi folks. i wasnt 100% certain this was the right forum for this question, so forgive me if it isnt.    im in the market for a set of wireless headphones. the headphones will have one purpose. ill be putting a cd in the stereo in the living room, i will wear the headphones in the garage, and...

oh. see, this is an example of how little i know what im doing. assumed the asgard was all i needed. ive just purchased the m-stage as the consensus seemed to lead slightly that way. am i gonna need more?

thank you, that definitely helps. id seen a post of yours that mentioned four or so including the e17, but ill go with your judgment on the asgard as preferable. thanks again

hi all. trying to narrow this down. seen good reviews for all of the above. theres the price difference with the fiio e17 being cheaper. willing to go with that if the others arent noticeably better. thanks in advance. 

no plans. i mean i suppose i would in around a decade if the things were suffering. but not in the forseeable future. it had just been recommended to me that they would still benefit from an amp. their primary use will probably be to play music from a laptop though, and i have no idea about the...

thanks. ive seen at least one other (i think more) say the matrix mstage worked great with them.    i am pretty certain ive just found these headphones for $139, new, with no catch. if that turns out to be the case, i may want to consider a more expensive amp. 

would anyone recommend the fiio e17? thats what im leaning toward. 

i promise ive read pretty much all that is here already on this forum :)   ive been sold on the he-400s. seems prudent if not somewhat necessary for an amp. ive exhausted myself in this search for headphones, and i do not want to do so with amps, something i have little knowledge of anyway...
