I'm not sure where to put this as I'm not sure exactly what I need, but I think I need some kind of amp.   I recently bought an Audio-Technica LP60 Turntable to play some vinyls I purchased as I've been wanting to get into vinyl for a while now. Everything is great and I really dig the sound...

I have some Audio-Technica AD900s on back order from musician's friend. The phones were listed as in stock when I bought them, but then they sent me the back order notice. So I'm not particularly happy with them in the first place, but ok, fine. Then they said they would be in stock on 1-8-09...

Ok, so, I recently sold my ATH-AD900s after seeking an upgrade. I really did love these headphones, though I wanted to find a headphone similar, but with more, punchy bass. I purchased the Ultrasone Pro 900, which I think are not a bad headphones, but I find them sibilant with some female vocals...

Well, I got the DT880/600 and thought it would be an acceptable medium, but I think I enjoyed the TB PC21's better, because they got louder and the bass was criper. With the mixamp maxed out it certainly gets loud enough, but the bass gets muddy and distorted and not as enjoyable as I was...

hey guys, i've been coming here for ages reading threads so i thought i might join and get another opinion, especially since it often comes to personal preference.   currently im using a essence ST with the HD555, one thing id like to note is that i've read reviews saying these are weak on...

Well I finally am free to talk about my AD900's that came in the mail last week !   ** NOTE: The way I describe Sound is still under "development". I use terminology that I understand and think best describes what I'm hearing **     Well, i'll just talk about the sound they emit rather...

Hello Head-Fi i have been looking into getting my first good pair of headphones and have been lurking here for a while trying to soak up all the knowledge. I have narrowed it down to the AD900 and A900 headphones. I currently have Sony MDR-V250's and have owned a version of this pair for the...

Hey all,   I just got my Grado SR80i's and I'm already plotting my next set of cans.  I saw that Amazon has the AD700s for $90.  Bad investment?  How do they compare to the Grados?

Yo guys I'm new here and was just looking to get my first nice pair of headphones. I currently have the Bose triports which I still intend to use at school/out and what not. But I would like to get me a premium pair of headphones just to use at home for top quality listening. I was however...

I'm listening to an hd595 right now and I want to upgrade my cans to either one of these 3. I will be mainly listening to Jpop, female vocal with a little of classical and rock. My source would be either my laptop or my HM601.   (I will be getting an amp+dac later on. I'm currently...

Christmas is coming. I hope Santa Claus will be kind to me because I want to have an AKG K701 this December 2009. How about you guys?

Can I get a list of headphones (up to $300 ish) that have better instrument seperation, soundstage and detail than the Beyer DT 990 Pro - I'm just curious. Also any with similar bass would be great but not essential to this.   Thanks.

    I've bought a lot of headphones lately, trying to find the perfect pair. I'm looking for overall sound quality, bass and comfort. I've went through Shure 750DJ (Not enough bass, not very comfortable), Ultrasone Hfi-580 (This was my favorite pair until the Denon D2000), Beyerdynamic DT770...

So I have been going crazy reading review after review about headphones because I desperately need a new setup for my xbox and PC gaming. I will be doing mostly MMOs on the PC, but definitely some Black Opts on the XBOX. So I definitely want something immersive enough for an MMO/Movie/Light...

I was thinking of getting a pair of AD700, they seem to be well-liked and I have to spend lass than $100. The only major complaint I see about them is the bass. From the Headroom graph, they look -5db around 50 hz and the -10 is below 35hz. That's not great, but it sounds comparable to a pair of...

Hey, I would like recommendations from people who have owned any of the above headphones and used them unamped. FWIRs are also welcome.   I'm looking for a set of open, comfortable, headphones to use exclusively from the headphone out of my Cowon S9 mp3 player. In order, my priorities...

A true Diamond in the rough - Onn Enhanced Bass Professional Dynamic Open Air HiFi   I thought I was finished with full size headphones. Honest I really thought I was just going to just use IEM’s, but a head-fi meet changed all that. One afternoon of listening to Denon AH D7000, Beyerdynamic...

I recently purchased the TU-882AS which is the TU882 version with the pre-assembled PCB. Putting the amp together was simple and a lot of fun. The process took about an hour and I experienced zero issues. The TU882 worked perfectly the first time I plugged it in. I’ll be comparing the TU882...

I had Matrix M-Stage and AKG K701 phones. I wasn't satisfied with Matrix, because stock model didn't have sound stage at all, and was dull and sterile. After few mods (changing opamp and capacitors) there was improvement in deepness, but low frequency didn't have precision and had too much...

Hi all, first post here at Head-Fi! I've been reading and swooping around the forums a lot and haven't really posted before. But I've heard a lot of great things about Head-Fi.         I basically need a recommendation for headphones that suit my criteria. My criteria, expectations or...

Hi guys, I'm in search for some new headphones. It would be used mainly for audio production (hobby), mostly in the electronica genre. I had my mind set on the Sennheiser HD595's, but after reading a few reviews, I'm having difficulty proceeding. Perhaps you guys can help me out and let...

I have some entry level full-size cans. HARX700, ATH-AD900 and I was wanting some good basshead headphones. I been reading and people have been recommending either the D2000 Denon's or BeyerDynamic DT-770. Question is there any other basshead headphones. Also, there are a lot of different...

Anybody know of another place then headphone.com for frequency response curves, etc   Looking to compare some Sennheiser HD555, Audio-Technica ATH-AD900, HiFiMan RE0 and probably others.
