Hey there. I'm relatively new to the headphone scene and currently looking for an upgrade to my $45 ebay XB500's. What I'm looking for is good, punchy bass that wont rattle at certain frequencies (like my sony's are doing). I listen to everything from classical to Dubstep/Trance and frequently...

If the headphone you reach for most frequently broke irreparably today, would you buy the same model again?

Seems like everyone has a different idea of which headphone sounds most neutral.  So I thought it would be interesting to see what the majority opinion is on what is the most neutral tonal balance.     By neutral tonal balance, I mean the headphone that adds the least coloration (No extra...

Intro I'd previously planned on not writing any more "reviews" on Head-Fi, but as I've learned, things rarely go as planned. I guess I'll just say this is my latest one of the Shure SRH1840, which I recently bought, mostly because of the raving on it by some very experienced Head-Fiers. The...

This coming Thursday, July 5th, will be Joe's 88th birthday. If anyone would like to post a birthday greeting on this thread I will be sure to have him see it.

Just a little thing I would like to say at first. I was doubting whatever to post this or not, but decided to do so, because if you are the part of the community, it's very important to share, so, take it like it is and come with your own conclusions / impressions, cos I am interested in them...

Are these pink drivers? Or is it just a pink cover over the drivers? I'm not too sure how old these SR325s are? They have black metal cups.   http://i602.photobucket.com/albums/tt104/TDL-STUDIO/007-8.jpg       Regards.

I have the Hd650 and Dt250 which i love as i am a bit treble sensitive but i am wanting to get into the grado sound. i have owned  both the sr60 and sr80 and loved the intimacy of the upfront nature of these phones but found the highs too much for my ears. i was wondering if the alessandro ms1...

Hello,   Do these have that nice ''fun'' boggie sound like the SR80? Or are they more ''grown up'' sounding?   What year did the SR100 discontinue in? And how much do they sell for?   Regards.

I've just unpacked my Grado HP 1000 headphones which have been stored for several years in my home.   The foam was crumbling and I let it fall off, and gently pulled the rest off.   There is a tiny bit of black residue--either the foam itself or an adhesive?--around the ring with the...

         I've been searching for a pair of headphones for a few days now and I'm stuck. I'm looking for headphones with great sound quality (nice bass); I will be mixing/mastering my own music on these (mostly dance/dubstep/electronic). Isolation is also important, I want something that can...

Hi everyone,   I am very new to the world of good sound so I'd like a little advice on what to get. I currently have an old Philips SBC-HP1000 which I use to listen to music via my laptop (I have a little amplifier called the Fiio E5 which I friend gave me). I don't have much knowledge about...

Hi all,   Hope this is the right forum and not "tweaks" etc.   Having just purchased these, I'm looking to find a way to store them safely, particularly since this pair has full original lettering, etc.  I'm looking at the pelican cases (a fellow head-fi'er recommended the 1080), and...

Hi, Just want to get some advice from HP-1000 owners: I have a pair of Grado HP-1 without the original box. Any suggestions about storage or carrying cases? I had some good advice from Wilson who sold me the phones. Any more ideas will be appreciated. Thanks! Paul

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...0837&rd=1&rd=1 I can't wait to get them!

I have always wanted to eventually pick up a pair of Joe Grado HP1000s. However lately I have seen a surprisingly high number for sale lately in almost perfect condition. In the past three months I have seen about eight to ten sets for sale on ebay (always a little suspicious of stuff on here)...

So what's the word on these cans? I've only read, like, two or three posts on these cans on this site. One comment about them were not good, but the other person compared these to the K501's and preferred the DT48's midrange over that of the AKG's. The only caveat is that this listener...

REVIEW: Grado Statement 1000 Headphones The excitement of a new top-shelf product is rarely without some form of controversy. The sceptics and critics will crawl out of the woodwork to dispute the claims of the “fanboys” and enthusiastic early adopters. When the product is a Grado, at least...

  ok, so after asking around and researching on head-fi, i've decided to (slowly) convert my library in 16/44.1 flac and have decided on the audio technica pro 700 (+ fiio e11). but then i realised that the pro700 is known to break after a few weeks of use. there is two other models of...

Guys, I want to know the most natural sounding pair of headphones you've heard. It kind of means, the most accurate reproduction but not exactly. I mean when the drummer hits the snare and you hear it and it fades out in the right amount of time and you think to yourself "man that's what a snare...

Ive narrowed it down to the dt770 vs the DN-HP1000 which has better bass, one thats bone shattering head throbbing good AT LOWER VOLUME not just blasting.
