Hey.   So, I recently broke my headphones at work, and while they did the trick for my old tasks, I now find myself needing more clarity and accuracy.   I do sound mixing / engineering for a AAA game studio, and that is really only recently my task (previously QA).   However, most of...

I am going to be receiving a gift card for my broken ATH-M50s that I bought Pro Coverage on (Yeah....I was sort of dumb 2 years ago when I first joined, but it actually is paying off) and will be receiving a $120 gift card.   I'm getting into recording my friends and such so I have a mixer and...

I'm shopping for a new pair of headphones, primarily for dance music, and I think I've narrowed my choices down to these three. I'm curious to see which people would recommend I go with, they all seem similarly-priced and competitive with one another.    The DT-770 seem to win out on bass...

Hi Everyone,   A little background:      I'm reasonably new to higher-end audio equipment and looking for some suggestions. My cheap, $20 pair of ear buds died a week ago and I've decided I'm overdue for a nice pair of headphones. I did purchase a reasonably good quality pair of Sony over-ear...

Hey guys! I made this thread about 7 years ago and you guys really helped me find a decent pair of 'phones (Equation Audio RP-21s) for the price.  I broke them a year ago and have not gotten around to buying a new pair and cannot seem to find anyone that stocks them anymore.   Any ideas for...

I'm interested in getting some new ear pads for my COPs but I don't know what other pads are compatible or how different materials (pleather, velour, etc) affect the sound. What types of pads do you guys like?

Help!   I've been looking for high quality headphones for a while and have narrowed my selections down to these three. I'll mostly be using these for music (I listen to electronic, like dubstep) These all appeal to me but I'd only like to have one pair. Please, no suggestions either. So, if...

Sorry If this is the wrong forum section. Anyway, I purchased some Beyerdynamic Custom One Pros, and I am really loving them. However part of the design, the wire is exposed outside of the earcup. Should I be concerned about damage? Are the drivers wires replaceable? Or what can i do to...

   

Hi!    I've just decided to buy the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pros, and am looking at headphone amps under $100.  So far I've liked what I've heard about the Pocket Amp 2, and Fiio e10.    IDEALLY, I would like a dac/ HP amp all in one. But I'm sure this results in some sort of quality...

I am looking for a headphone amplifier to use instead of my TEAC UD-H01 DAC's built in one. I feel like the DAC's degrading the sound on my Beyerdynamic COPs since it is fixed gain and these really need a lower gain setting. But I also have a DT 990 600 Ohm so I need a high gain setting as well...

I would like help on picking some nice headphones for movies, games, music, etc... Usually i would just get a pair of 'gaming' headphones that would break after about a year or so of use. So after reading several different times that the sound and quality of 'gaming' headphones are mediocre, i...

Right now, my budget on headphones would be $200 or less and I have these 4 headphones in mind, the Audio Technica ATH-M50 , Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro, Shure SRH840  and the Senheiser HD558. I listen to mostly all kinda of music except for dubstep/techno, but I still want to hear the low-mid...

Been looking for a pair of closed headphones for portable use. I have been looking at these. Custom One Pros, Shure SRH440/840 and Sony Prestige MDR-1R. I mostly listen to Metal, acoustic and dubstep. So what ones would you say would suit my needs more? Also i would be open to suggestions.

I am looking to spend less than 1k total. My current collection of headphones: ATH-M50s, Image S4 IEM, VMODA M-100, Beyerdynamic Custom One Pros, Sony XB700. (Sound Isolation/Bass Head!!!) I listen to electronica, rap and metal and also do a good bit of PC gaming. I currently use a Fiio E5...

Hey, I finally decided to get a pair of COP's. I couldn't decide between them, or the HD558's, so I bought them both xD. Anyways, I was wondering what pads worked on them. I know you can buy velour pads for the DT770's on Amazon, and I was wondering if they'd work with the COP's. Also, has...

Hello all,   I am thinking about buying a pair of new headphones. Since I don't really feel, I have any real good one to listen to music with. I had first considered buying a pair of Street by 50, But I don't think is it the best solution. Is probably more the brand, than the quality you pay...

Hi guys, I already own the Audio-Technica AD900x and The beyer Dynamics Custom One Pro.   I use the first one for clear and vivid highs and for a large and precise soundstage (mainly for electronica, idm, classical etc.). I truly love it. To me, the second one is good for urban or pop music...

Like almost a year ago when it first came out, love the headphones but I didn't use them that much because they were too big....V-Moda M100 didn't come out at the time, so I didn't get that...and it's 100 dollars more... But now I regret a little for buying COPs...my friend has M100s, they are...

Hi Please can I have some recommendations for good closed headphones, over ear type that can run well without a dedicated headphone amp. My mate just wants to plug them into the headphone socket on his new Naim SuperNait2 which apparently has a class A headphone amp built -in. He likes lively...

Hey guys, I've eyed this forum for a while now, and I've finally joined :P   So yeah. I'm 14, and I really want new headphones for Christmas. I first bought the Samson SR850's 3 years ago now, and I loved them. At first they were pretty iffy, but after a month or so they sounded great. At the...

Hi everyone! I'm a newcomer to this community, and am looking for a high entry level headphone and amp combo. Recently, I have been researching the likes of the AKG K550, Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro, Audio Technica Ath M50, and the Sennheiser HD 598. For amps, I've been looking at the C&C BH2...

I currently have the beautiful and awesome Sennheiser HD 598s.  I've had them for about 2 weeks, and really love them, but my main complaint is they are a little bass light and they leak a ton.  The leaking is not really an issue for me, but I am a little disappointed the the bass not being...

Hey everyone. Been a member for a while, sold a couple of things on here. Been kind of looking at headphones on and off for a few years but now's when I'm really looking to find something I like.   I recently bought myself a pair of AKG K240s and found that I can definitely enjoy them. I...

Ok, first I'll explain what I'm looking for. I listen to music all the time on my computer, mostly with my headphones. I play a lot of shooters (competitively), so I need as good and precise sound as possible. I'm lazy and not into pirating music, so I listen to music mostly from Spotify. I...
