Hi, I was thinking about upgrading from by ath ad700s to the akg 701s, as the 701s are on sale on amazon right now for about $190 USD. Is this a worthwhile upgrade?   I currently have a asus xonar stx, would I be able to drive these headphones well?   Thanks for any advice.

Hello,   first off all, I did a lot of research but because of a lack of knowledge I'm not sure what headphone/headset would give me the best gaming experience for my budget. My budget is 400 euro for the headphone/microphone/soundcard. If an amplifier is needed or gives me fair performance...

I am considering purchasing either a pair of ATH-M50, or ATH- AD700. I understand that M-50 have a closed back,and the AD-700 are open. I have not had the chance to listen to either one. I have just read the reviews. I also plan on purchasing the Audioquest Dragonfly dac. I listen to rock...

I'm gonna make this short and simple: Don't care for noise cancellation and such. I'll be using these almost 100% in my quiet house <$100 is best. I'm not an audiophile so I don't want to get sucked into the money-melting audiophile world quite yet. Music I listen to: Orchestral, Jpop(J...

I picked up a Ultralink Pro MX882 8-Channel splitter a few weeks ago to hook up my KRK monitors to my desktop, I then recently got a pair of ATH-AD700 and a Pyle PHA40 Headphone amp. I am just wondering if plugging the headphone amp into the splitter could send to much power into the headphones...

hi all,    Alright i am upgrading my headphones from g35's to AD700, the cans arrive Wednesday. Now i have used on board sound all my life.  Do i need to have a proper sound card or amp here immediately when they arrive to properly test the headphones? If they are gonna be better than the...

So i have had my siberia's for about two years and feeling a need an upgrade. I'm looking for a pair of headphones for music (i listen to basically all types of music) and gaming. I have a turtle beach dss as a part of my audio setup also. I'm open to all suggestions. I've been looking into...

Hi,   I wan't to buy a new pair of headphones my budget is about 300$. I listen to rock, electronic, rap, pop, r&b  and also jazz some times. The headphones also will be used for a lot of gaming and also for movies. I owned AD700, srh750dj and M-80. The AD700 are too bass shy for me. The...

Audio Technica ATH AD700 headphone user here.  hi :)   Love these headphones for the comfort level.  I get headaches quite easily, and a lot of different headphones give me one by being too tight on the ears and even sometimes too enclosed (ie airtight that it feels like my ears will pop)...

Here my story. I really own a couple not so expensive headphones which includes  sony xb500 apple earbud  Astros a40 ( yes I used them for music even though i bought them for my gaming rig)   So here is where I need your help I'm going to buy 2 pairs of headphones one for gaming and...

Hey guys. I have no idea how well known plantronics headphones are in the world. I'v tryed many lower end sennhesiers, and they just don't compare. Plantronic audio .90 and .350 just blow my mind for the price. Plus there a headset with a microphone. Sometimes they just blow me away, with there...

Hello,   My senns got some damage on the grills on both sides. Do you know if its affecting SQ?

I've bought a pair of these, and after listening to them for a few days (over 10h/day), I've modded them a little bit. I've noticed the burn-in difference after ~30h, by the way. Anyway, the mods I've done so far (pics numbered below the descriptions, so scroll down for reference):   1. Added...

Im really desperate Ive lost both and now its really uncomfortable. Ran in to trouble with my other headphones and now I need to buy some cushions to use my AD700s.    In case Im no explaining it well this is what I mean if anyone knows where I could get them it would make me super happy!    

So, whats a good upgrade for this headphones? i want a similar sound, with a possible bass bump, and the amazing soundstage. Maybe something easy to drive i guess

  Pros: Multiple designs to choose from, in-line microphone, removable cable, overall fun sound, good imaging and level of detail. Cons: Likely will not fit large heads, clamp might be loose for some, build quality doesn’t inspire confidence, isolation is poor, recessed mids and slightly...

Friend order a pair of ad2000 drivers and got these. Not entirely sure what they are. They aren't ad2000 or ad700.    

My main desktop headphones are discontinued ATH-AD700's.   I'm looking for a closed solution with decent sound stage. I'm too used to the 700's.   I'm currently gravitating between the Beyer DT-700 32 ohm, or the Audio-Technica ATH-A900X, leaning slightly towards the A900X. I'm probably...

alright, first of all, I don't have "golden ears."  so now that's out of the way, I need some helping figuring out what you do with my HD598's. here's a little sound profile: for headphones, i own a set of ATH-AD700's, HD-280's.  i also have a set of Shure e3c's and  UE Triplefi 10's. ...

Hi,   So i hope i am putting this in the right section. Basically just trying to see if anyone has any ideas of what i can try do to solve my AD700 problems.   I have done a mic mod to the headphones but the problem started just before that.   I pulled the left earpad off to see what i...

I have Audio Technica AD700s. Regarded as possibly the best set of cans for FPS games, and I have to say they have won me some matches. They're the best on CSGO. I been looking at getting something else, and always wanted to try Sennheiser's, so I been looking at HD598's. I'm also looking at a...

Which of these is better for my needs? I will be using this mainly for playing battlefield 4 competitively. However I will also be using them for monitoring my commentarys that I record for youtube and for just everyday use (watching youtube videos and playing other games.) That is what I need...

Hello Head-Fi!    I am looking for some help and suggestions. I am looking for the perfect headphones (for me) - currently own the Sennheiser HD598's. I love the sound that the 598's produce with the exception of the bass, or lack there of. I am powering them with a Aune T1 USB DAC/Amp with a...

Hello, I'm new here, this is my first post, and I know barely anything about soundcards and computer audio. I've had pretty cruddy headphones for a while, never really bothered getting any good audio equipment. So I've had pretty average audio equipment for the entire time I've been using my...
