Hi guys,    after saving up some money after my birthday, christmas and other stuff, I am now again looking for new headphones. Therefore, i am looking for something like the DT1350 or an IEM.   Most time, i am listening to rock (Slayer, Metallica, but also Depeche Mode or ZZ Top), but...

The following table is based on measurements, not manufacturer specs.   Target SPL is 110 dB SPL. The source is assumed to output 2 V. The amp is assumed to be a voltage source (0 ohm output impedance). Voltage, current, power are RMS figures.   What do the columns mean? S@1V is the...

Hi   My set   HE-500 Dac Gungnir Amp Lyr Music  New adg Cillout  some times Trance The Budget 700$ max What headphone should I get ?   Thx

What's you guys opinions about the Best Closed Back Over Ear Headphone?  Please exclude headphones like $5000 Ultrasone, that's just too expensive for average consumers. 

I just moved this post to the intro + help area  ------------------------------------------ I'd like to fix my T70's.  The driver on the right side isn't working. Anyone know how I could sort this out, or have a broken pair for sale? Thanks so much!

Hello all,   Been a couple of years getting into head-fi, coming from 2 channel audio. I moved into a smaller place and the neighbors aren't too fond of the Dyn's so I am looking to put my investment into some better headphone equipment. My cans currently are DT990/600, and K702 in the past...

The freq response chart is showing the T70 have a relatively even bass response compared to the LCD-2 and HD650. Does the Beyer T70 really have light bass below 200 hz as many have commented on?  I'm debating between this and the Mad dog to replace my uncomfortable DT1350.      

Hi there,   i dumbwise sold my customized srh940s and need something that can fill the hole it has left. so if i do buy a new headphone it should have at least the qualitys of the shure but should be better soundwise also.   what i am looking for:   - even more details than the...

I tired the Mad Dogs, but they where TOO warm   I'm thinking of ATH w5000 or w1000x woodies as my next attempt for clean warm cans [I use a tube for extra warmth a a little more bass]   I love my byer dt 880 pro 250s and I want a closed version of them :O [and not the dt 770] Sound stage...

I purchased a used pair of t90's off of craigslist today. So far I love how they sound, but not how they smell. They smell like cats and cigarettes....even after taking them off I can still smell them!   I've looked through the beyerdynamic "spare parts" on their website, but I couldn't find...

Hi everyone I am fairly new to this website sorry if i posted in the wrong section :P Ok so i am just about the average listener, not really an audiophile compared to many of you guys out there. I am actually very into sound however the thing is i never had the time to sit down on a computer...

Hey Everybody,   I'm hoping you can help me in deciding which pair of headphones would be most suitable for my musical library and needs. Below are the details:     Will be used about 80% of the time to listen to metal: Agalloch, Dark Empire, Primal Fear, Buckethead (not sure if he...

I have a basic setup from Fiio (E17+E09K) with my Beyerdynamic T-70. It sounds great, but I was thinking of making the jump to a Schitt setup (maybe tubes?). Can anyone tell me if there will be a noticeable difference?   My source is a Macbook Pro with lossless. 

Hi all,   I have the Beyerdynamic T70 in loan use now. I completely unlike the sound it produces on my set! (DIY TPA BIII, IVYIII with Ventus EZ headphone amps)   It is quite detailed but for the rest the sound is penetrating my head on a manner that it hurts my tooth and the sound is...

I've been looking at the Shure SRH940 and the KRK KNS 8400 - but I've read soundonsound reviews of both of them which said that they've both got great mid-range response and ok (not bad by any means, but not stand-out) treble. I've heard similar things said of the AKG K272 HD and 271.  ...

So, quite a weird list I have here with three completely different headphones.   The thing is...I'm looking for a upper mid - high end can, so not quite HD800 / T1 / LCD2 level, but above DT880 / HD600-650 / K701.     What I don't care about AT ALL is sound neutrality. I don't care if...

Hello all,   Based on all the great reviews about the clarity of the Shure 940's I overlooked the comments about build quality and purchased them. I figured that the "cheap plastic" wouldn't be a concern for me since I'm generally easy on my stuff and it had the nice hard case included. Well...

Intro This mini-review covers my thoughts on the Beyerdynamic T70, which I acquired via Headphone Solutions' recent contest in this thread: http://www.head-fi.org/t/577265/enter-to-win-a-free-t70-beyerdynamic-669-retail-value Unlike most of my previous reviews, this isn't entirely a...

    Hello all, I'm making a decision between the 225i and the 325is and I'm turning to Head-Fi for some valuable input~   I have a fondness for the higher frequencies. I don't shy away from them, especially when I'm in the mood for brassy jazz and especially electronica, where (timely)...

I've been reading reviews for idk how long and I just can't seem to find a solid choice for a closed can I want something relatively neutral that isolates well And has good quality highs but not too sharp I was great pronounced mids especially vocals as well as good instrument separation that...

Hi! I'm seeking some guidance from you experts here.  I'm not really too knowledgeable or familiar concerning on/around ear phones - from the sound I should expect from a particular model, to model nomenclature by brand. I guess this is where you guys come in.   I take public transit/am on...

I am looking for very good build quality and high quality bass and mid tones.  This will be my new pair for electronic music, classical, hip-hop etc...   I also need them to be closed.

I'm looking to purchase a new headphone and I'm tempted by the Ultrasone edition 8. It is also expensive but I have no issues with that if it's going to have great quality. Question I have is how much better is the sound quality to something that's lower in price? Is the jump in sound quality...

As the title says, what are the closed headphones (I need some for tracking vocals) that sound closest to my beloved K 702s?

Hello, thank you for taking the time to read my thread!   I am currently looking for a nice headset for gaming and music purposes (would also consider headphones with clip on mic). I would mostly be playing MMOs and some FPS games like BF3 on the PC and the music I listen to is mostly from...
