Hi Head-fi   this is my first thread on this forum, and i'm pretty new to this "hifi" world, so bare over with me! :)   - anyways, i'm looking for a pair of open headphones for my gaming sessions (mainly fps games) and for music listening (rap electronic, pop, rock), so the soundstage has to...

I would greatly appreciate some headphone advice.  I bought my son a pair of Sennheiser HD 449 headphones to use with computer music and gaming.  After 50 hours of burn in they are flat will little bass.  I am going to sell these and buy a different set.  I want to stay in the $100-120 range...

Hello, I'm looking to get a quality pair of over-ear headphones for gaming and general music listening. I've decided on a few headphones, but I just don't know which is the best. I'm not much of a fps gamer but id like to have that surround sound, I also want that Imax feel for full game...

I am considering getting the Audio Technica ATH-AD700X for gaming but I saw a review that said the build quality went down when they stopped making them in Japan and moved production to China.  Can someone confirm this?  On ebay there are ATH-AD700X's for sale from Japan but none of them say...

Hei, I am planning on buying a headphone in the next couple of days and is wondering whether to buy the Philips Fidelio X1 or not. It is gonna be used primarily for gaming and I'm worried it will not provide any good "surround quality" aka being able to her where footsteps/explosions originates...

Hello Head-Fi! Long time lurker, first time poster here.   I'm looking to do a full upgrade on my audio system for my computer, coming from on-board audio (I used to use an external sound card but, upon getting new IEMs, I began to notice a hiss much worse than the one from the on-board...

I am quite new to the audiophile world and am wondering what I need to purchase with the ATH-AD900xs. I was looking into getting a soundcard for quite a long time but I have just recently read that with using a soundcard, I would notice digital interference from the mobo and that using a DAC and...

I'm having trouble deciding between these 2.   I mostly want a competitive edge against my opponent.   Would the ad500x be "enough" if its just for competitive gaming?

.

hello Head-Fi i would like to know your opinion on the AD700x i am currently deciding on buying a pair for gaming but also just for general use on the go 1. When i wear em can people hear my music? 2. Are they worth the money for video games? 3. Do they overheat my ears? 4. What is the...

Sorry if all of you thought I had a product to share, but it's actually going to be a question instead of a hook to introduce an awesome product.    I play CS:GO, and the sound engine is meh.   I used Siberia V2s for a while and I barely could here any footsteps in the game. Everything was...

I am not finding much info on the AD700x. I am particularly wondering about any audio changes in comparison to the AD700.  I have heard the AD700s and I like them for many reasons.  However, like everyone else, I am hoping that the AD700x adds a little more bass.    Can anyone tell me how...

So over the past few months I have tried out a number of headphones, all failing on me.   The SR850's - Hated the pads, sock mod fixed this somewhat but the pads kept coming off, leather headband broke after a few months, I hated everything about these other then the sound quality.   The...

Hey guys,   First up, this are what I intend to get a pair of cans for. Mostly home usage, Music, Movies & Games from my desktop DAC.   Tried the M50, DT770 80ohms and AD700X.   Felt the M50 bass to be on the boomier and looser. The mids were more front forward, which is something I...

hi all,   i currently own the Sony MDR-SA3000 headphones, which give nice spatial sound, but wanted to upgrade to something better   ive narrowed down my choices to the AKG 702 and Audio Technica AD700X   i understand these are probably the best for fps gaming give their wide sound stage...

   Hello. Recently i got hooked to quality audio (music). Currently i use Sennheiser HD205II. I don't have much experience with headphones so i won't rate these ones but they sound good enough for first good headphones and if it wasn't for the unbearable clamping force i could recommend them for...

     i have been looking to get a new headphone or headset to use for FPS/MMORPG gaming and listening to music on occasion.  I know that if I went for a pair of headphones, which i have seen multiple times be the preferred option, that I would need a  modmic.  I am looking for headphones that...

I'm looking around for the most comfortable cans and the AD700 really stood out because literally every review said they were comfortable. I'd love to own them but they've also said that the bass is lacking for those who want it (which I really do). My question is: has anyone tried the AD700X...

My Shure SCL4s have finally kicked the bucket after a botched repair (We were so close...then a misapplied needle-nose ended that progress irreparably.)    While I'm considering the out-of-warranty replacement to SE425s for $155, I'm thinking about full-size options as well. I like the...

I should probably start by saying I'm a hardcore fan of the AD700, and I've used them for 12+ hours a day since 2009. They're my only source of sound.    First of all, I really know nothing about hair. I've only noticed this within this year, but my headphones sit exactly where my hair is...

Hey guys, It's that thread again... I hope someone can give me some advice on these headphones. I wanted to upgrade from some random broken Sony headphones I've been using for a while, and I read around to see what fit my needs the best and came upon these 3 models. Basically, I mainly use...
