I'm looking for a comfortable, lightweight, high-quality and very durable pair of portable headphones that don't require an amp, that I can wear in the car or on an airplane without disturbing those around me.  I've worn Sony MDR-V150 headphones for as long as I can remember, but they sound flat...

I am currently looking for a pair of portable, closed headphones to replace my Beyerdynamic DTX 501p's. Unfortunately my 501p's were stolen on a recent vacation. I would just buy the same headphones, but I feel there are better headphones to be had with a higher price range. I would like these...

Here's the criteria:   -$100-$200 -Soft/Lightweight and very comfortable (my mom has headaches, so "clamping" headphones are out) -Closed (little sound leakage as possible that can also block out external sound) -Mostly for TV/Movie watching -Small "back" (she sits in a rocking chair and...

Picked up the Mikros 90 on Amazon for $85 and was extremely excited to get them after all that I had read about them – seemed to be a great buy at the discounted price. VERY uncomfortable after about 30 minutes, and I'm not sure it's the clamping force that everyone says – the pain I had was...

Hey, im long time lurker but now im in debate, gonna get a pair headphones around 80-150$, but problem is going to order on amazon, dont have a chance to try them before buy, so im really picky at this point.  Mostly gonna listen drone, shoegaze, trance, electro punk on ipod, so here is my...

Just posted a review on the Beyerdynamic DTX 501 p, hope you like: http://www.head-fi.org/products/beyerdynamic-dtx-501-p/reviews/11130

They were both supraaural closed-back headphones. What I'm searching are IEMs with excellent clarity, big and airy soundstage and an overall balanced frequency response. I like neutral but detailed sound, wanna hear every instrument, and do not like bass that invade midrange, I like bass but not...

Hi, first of all, sorry if my english is not good, Im from Argentina. Please, help me to decide between some headphones I want to buy: They are:   JBL Tempo J03b. (Less power handling, but they are thin) Pioneer Se-mj522-k.(Much more power handling and frequency response) Beyerdinamic DTX...

I must choose mine next pair of portable headphones since I lost the previous ones so I'm asking you for advice. What I favor the most is 'detail', an 'open and large soundstage' (yes I know it's difficult to get on portable headphones, I just want to find the best for the category) and sound...

Greetings,   I own beyerdynamics dtx501p and i'm looking for a AMP/DAC to connect to my laptop once my 3,5mm entrance does not work anymore.   My question is:   Is the Fiio e10 going to be too much to go with my dtx501p? Is the Hifiman hm101 enough? Any other recommendations?   thanks

Which one to buy? I need a portable headphone for around 100 euros and these seem to be the best. Any thoughts on which to buy?   I liste to all kinds of music, from bassy hiphop and electronica to classical with lots of jazz and world music too. Everything goes as long as it has quality.  ...

Ok I am actually asking about 2 things here - cans and amps. Not sure if I should post it here or in the amps forum. While window shopping at a headphones store, I came across the beyer 501 and fell in love with the design and price tag. After reading good reviews here and elsewhere, I want to...

As You can guess from My handle i am an Airline Pilot i was in Hong Kong over last weekend i picked a set of Beyerdynamic DTX 510s for My son from Mingo-HMW via their Wanchai Hennessey Road branch.The service was exemplary and the Sales assistant,Ming was very honest and knew his stuff!I was...

Hi all, Looking to get a pair of new headphones for my gf for her birthday. Looking at these two portable closed-backs. They're both around the same price from my research.   She listens to all types of music (rock, hip-hop, acoustic), and imo would probably prefer a livlier headphone to a...

Hi all,   I'm in the market for new headphones, coming from KSC-75 and Sennheiser HD201. I've shorten the list to following:   Audio-Technica ES55 Beyerdynamic DTX-501p Soundmagic P30   Anyone has experience with all/most of them and can compare?   My pmp: iPod mini v2 +...

Hi there, I'm in the market for portable closed headphones, and have narrowed my shortlist to the above two. Does anyone know how these two compare?

hi,   anybody here heard both? would be interesting, as both get good comments, but no direct comparo yet. oh, yes, and a comparison to the s500 would be great also.

I have an admittedly small head, but was very surprised to find that the pair of Beyerdynamic DTX 501P that just arrived for me today are too big for my head, even at the smallest setting. Have others found this?  Very disappointing, since I was really excited to try these out.

I honestly can't decide, I have no way to try them before purchase, so I have to trust the few reviews, my guts and you. Which should I buy ? Beyerdynamic DTX 501 P http://europe.beyerdynamic.com/shop/hah/headphones-and-headsets/mobile-portable/dtx-501-p.html AKG K451...

Hi! First of all, hello everybody. This is my first post in these forums.   I used to have a sennheiser px200, which weren't half bad, but not really suited for long listening sessions (because they really pressed on my ears) and, didn't isolate too much outside noise.   I fly...

Hi all,   I'm new at this forum. I want to buy a pair of headphone to listen music with my ipod or my galaxy S3 without amplifying. I have a wide range of music taste. But mostly a listen old rock (beatles, queen, pink floyd, nirvana), radiohead, and classical music. I want to spend less...
