Hey guys, (and girls) I've been looking and researching for some gaming headphones. I looked at the AD700 but I wanted more immersion (willing to sacrifice some sound stage for bass) so I looked at the SR850. I saw Malveaux (who actually was the one who made me think twice about buy...

i listen to dubstep, rap/hip-hop and some rock. mainly rap/hop-hip though. would there be an improvement of bass in the 598 compared to the 558? ive heard the 558's before. i like it. i already have a pair of M50 but i want something thats open eared. what really attracted me to sennheiser is...

Hello, I am looking for a pair of headphones to use exclusively with my digital piano and on my computer when I record my piano music. I don't care what they look like, and they don't need to be portable. I'm easy on equipment, so I don't need anything overly durable. What I care about it...

Looking into getting a pair of HD558 for around $50 (after some playing around in Target with an online return). Own a pair of XB500 at the moment. I've heard that the bass is very weak in the HD558 but was hoping there was at least some presence. Mostly indie rock listening. Work your wonders...

I am new to the whole headphone game. I came across this site last week and have been looking since. I have been to BB and heard the Studios. I like the base. So since I have heard different things about them I asked my friend if he knew anything as good or better for $300. He said look at...

I have owned a pair of Superlux HD668B's for a while, reasonably burned in. I just picked up a pair of Senn HD558's on sale at Best Buy for $139. I was expecting the Senns to be much better sounding than the Superlux but to my surprise, they sounded very similar. I am not the type to take...

So after extensive research i finally bought these cans.  My most recent pair of headphones used are Shure SRH840's.  I listened to these amped on a FiiO E7.   To test these headphones out i listened to almost every genre under the sun.  Some of the songs include.   Mozart - Requiem K...

Hey everyone, been lurking for awhile as I'm slowly getting into quality headphones. I just picked up the HD 558 yesterday for $145 after tax but saw Fry's has the HD 598 for $150 before tax, I did the foam mod and was curious if it was worth the extra $20?

Happened to be in Best Buy today, and of course they have Souls front and center, flanking the Bose display with the Beats on the other side.  Talk about a trainwreck.  Anyway, I figured I'd give them a chance, how bad can they be? (that was a dumb question).  I barely made it 30 seconds into...

Hello,   I'm looking for recommendations for over-the-ear headphones for under $150 on Amazon (can't change title of this thread). It seems that I keep picking up headphones at Wal-Mart for around $20 that really hurt my ears. I will be using them with my PC, perhaps TV, and various mobile...

Will this work, and will it give me better SQ then just downloading directly from my computer via USB? My first post and just trying to figure it all out using an IPhone, HF 3, and Sennheiser 558.........Max

So I'm getting a new pair of sennheiser HD 598s soon but I cannot afford an amp. Will they still sound good? I currently own a pair of Philips SBC HP400. Will I notice a difference?  

So it seems the living room is mostly occupied and I can no longer enjoy my PS3 as much as I'd like to.  So I think moving the PS3 into my room where my pc is would be a good idea.  But how can I get it hooked up so that I can power it to my PS3?  And also how can I set it up so that I can use...

Hey,   I posted here about a year back in the recommendation megathread, but I ended up just replacing my broken Razer Carcharias with a breaking Plantronics Gamecom 777. I have finally decided it is time to pull the trigger.     Headphones, not headset. Max budget is $150. I don't even...

Money is a tight at the current moment, and I'd really like to have a new pair of headphones for music and a new headset for gaming, but I can't really afford both, so I was wondering what would be the best headphone for gaming and listening to music (Mainly rock/alternative). I only have ~$300...
