Hi Head-Fi,   Looking to purchase a new IEM soon. Currently looking at either the Westone 3 or the Aurisonics ASG 1.2. Which pair of earphones do you prefer? I'm looking for a fun pair of earphones that will be a nice alternative to the HD 600's that I use at home. I will be driving them...

Okay guys and girls, I've been out of this stuff for a while (been busy with life). I am getting tired of my UE Triple.fis. They sound great, but I want something new that's fun, better bass and easier to put on and take off. I adore the clarity and soundstage of the triple fis, but don't like...

   I own AKG 702 Annies, HD 600's, Klipsch x-10's, Harmon Kardon BT's and Monster Coppers. I'm looking for  IEM's that probably most resemble the 702's as they sound the closest to right to me. I listen to mostly Hard Rock with some prog rock and New Age thrown in. Having said that, my speaker...

My Dad brought me up to audio store today. They had these handcrafted in germany open air headphones German Maestro GMP 240. I was trying to find review but hadnt any luck to find any. Here is some flat review + specs.  ...

I was looking to get some of your opinions on the topic stated, do you think dynamic headphones age. Does the driver suspension start to loose it's tension and not control the movement as well as it did when it was newer. At some point in time would it be wise to replace your headphones just for...

So I own D5000's which are my favorite, SE215's and 535's, V-Moda M80's, Beyer DT 770 80ohm, Momentums, but the only open pair I have are my Porta Pros lol.   Every time I look at open headphones I get confused as they don't have great reviews but then anytime you read close headphone reviews...

Hey guys, I need a bit of advice on the title of this thread. I just purchased the ATH-A900x from Audio Technica, and I have the Creative ZxR sound card installed on my PC. I use the headphone out for the headphones, but I would be very interested in (possibly) getting more sound quality if...

I want awesome headphones 95% for movies. I've spent the past month reading countless posts on head-fi, and have found that music reproduction dominates the conversation. When movie audio comes up, there are often responses pointing users to budget-fi or low mid-fi models in the midst of...

I've been looking at the two non stop for weeks and can't really decide which one I want to go for. I have no problem paying the price of the 700 but they both sound like they're sooo good. I unfortunately live in Madison where the only brands that are sold is Bose and Beats and whatever iDevice...

With the array of custom earpad options on the market and/or interchangability between earpads....Dennon headphones for example fit Beyerdyamic, HiFiMan, JMoney, Lawton Angled, FA-003 pads etc....why are Sennheisers left in the lurch so to speak?  Yes, ear cup shape is oblong on the popular...

Was in last week and they had some nice stuff to demo. If you're in the area, stop by and check them out...   Beyerdynamics- 990, T1 Grado- everything up to about $500 Sennheiser- HD600, 650, 700 (no 800), RS220   they just added the T1 which is what I was really interested in. Can't...

I have:   Creative Sound Blaster ZxR Sennheiser hd600   In the driver, it allows me to choose Normal Gain (32/300 ohm headphones) and High Gain (600 ohm headphones).    Which should I choose? (it says "Setting to high gain may damage your headphones if their impedance does not...

Hello,   I am hoping someone could help me out in finding a pair of headphones that would best suit my needs...   1) Price Range: $250-350 2) Over-Ear, Closed (maybe Noise Canceling?) that are good for all types of music... I listen to a lot of progressive house as well as a lot of...

Hello,   I'm on the quest for headphones on a budget of $300.   Sound: Looking for a lush, full sound that is especially strong with mids for reproducing female vocals while not being especially lacking in other areas. Punchy mid-bass and rumbling sub-bass are a plus. I also don't want...

Does anybody know where i can find fake HD800s, HD600s or just a fake high-end copy. Something around $10 . Doing some modding/projects. No beats fakes, try Grado or Senns fakes!

Pros: SQ, clarity, comfort, build, balance, accessories, isolation, value, carry case (new), pad options Cons: Clamp force, slightly lacking some bass relative to treble (easy EQ though), pads can get sweaty, not the best for spectacle wearers. For larger views of any of the photos (1200...

Sup, been lurking this forum for awhile. Anytime I need my headphone info I always add to the search "head-fi" lol. Anyways, I've been looking for replacements for my Sennheiser PC350s forever now. They have been great (bass mod as well). They are really a great unit. But after time, you just...

I have now got the diagnosis presbyacusis. That is hearing loss due to age. Now I understand why people nowadays talk so inarticulated. The hearing loss wasn't very small either. It was in higher midrange and treble. So take my earlier reviews of headphones with a grain of salt. Anyway. I...

Hello! For those who just want a quick rundown, refer below. Otherwise, here's my situation: I'm definitely not an audiophile or anything, but I do enjoy my music. I am in need of an upgrade from my Sennheiser hd 201's, which are okay, but the cups are uncomfortable and the high's(I think) are...

on amazon they have some used and refurbished headphones "like new" condition at decent prices.  Anyone ever purchased from here before?

Hi, I've been wanting to purchase more headphones to add to my collection and rather than ask details about the sound, I thought that this method may get me responses faster and I can use it as reference for some future purchases. I own all the headphones in my sig, except Stax, but one...

Hello everybody   I'm trying to decide which model is the perfect headphone for me (I want to buy my first audiophile cans, and I want to make it right ) Genre's classical music, a lot of chamber music, but sinfonic too. I don't mind whether they are open or closed as I'd use them mostly at...

I'm new :)   Currently looking for $300 - $400 (no stretching price) open back fun. I listen to EVERYTHING. I want as wide a range music and movie headphone as I can get.   ATM I Have: Sennheiser 598 Topping TP41 amp   http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?partnumber=310-324...

On both my HD518 and 558 the headband pad is starting to peel off and the sound cuts out on the 558's if I move the wire just a little. And this has happened just with normal use and I always handle them carefully. Anyone else have build problems with Sennheisers?
