    Comfortable over-the-ear closed back.. for SENSITIVE ears? -no leather/artificial leather-

    I am trying to help my friend find headphones or a headset. The problem they are running into is that most headphones seem to hurt their ears because of the material, in this case the artificial leather that flakes. They think a a canvas style mesh, or pretty much any cloth would based ear pad...

    Just listened to some Fostex T50RPs today... WOW!

    I'm about to order a pair of these from B&H, got some questions on what I'll need to order to go with these though. For the cord do I need to order a male to male 1/8 stereo jack for use with my computer/phone? What velour cushions can be used on these? Is the headband really that uncomfortable...

    Fostex T50RP vs Brainwavz H5 (and variants)?

    So nobody has tried out both pairs? Edit: Just realized I've been misspelling it was Brainwavz H5 not Bainwavz HM5. THEY HAVE BEEN COMPARED BEFORE. SORRY!

    Fostex T50RP vs Brainwavz H5 (and variants)?

    Hi, I made a thread a few days back and thought I had decided on a pair of headphones to order but ended up putting it off a few days. Now I've stumbled upon the T50RPs and see all of these wonderful things about them. I know the T50RPs will need (at the very least) a amp and new cushions but...

    Need A Recommendation ~$160 Sennheiser Not A Option

    Gah! I didn't know you could order directly from the site. I will buy these then, they seem perfect and at $70 compared to $135 it seems like the ideal choice. I read the reviews and it doesn't really seem to be what I am looking for. Thanks for the help everyone!

    Need A Recommendation ~$160 Sennheiser Not A Option

    Still at a dead end regarding this. I need to get something ordered within the next day or two and the DT 770s on Ebay sold out. I keep hearing bad things about the M50s, reviews say the Bose AE2s break fast, bad reviews on the Koss phones and MDR-V6/MDR-7506 are apparently crap now that they...

    Need A Recommendation ~$160 Sennheiser Not A Option

    If I were to order a pair of DT 770s 80mhs would they sound leagues above my MDR-V150s even without a amp? If so I will order a pair and get a amp later. The main things I want right now are something that doesn't hurt my head because of my glasses, blocks out outside sounds and sounds decent...

    Need A Recommendation ~$160 Sennheiser Not A Option

    DT770s are under $160? Also forgot to mention I do not have nor will be getting a amp. Edit: If I were to get the ATH-M50s are there any other recommended sites other than Amazon? If not, which one do I purchase on amazon? (there are three, $125 $135 and ATH-M50S)

    Need A Recommendation ~$160 Sennheiser Not A Option

    I currently have a pair of cheap Sony MDR-V150s which feel and sound great for only $20 but I have moved in with my friend. Our desktops are right next to each other and they have a tendency to yell in to their microphones which in turn hurt my ears. Said friend is offering to buy me a new pair...
