Hello, I'm looking for a pair of headphones to use at work. At home I'm using a pair of Sennheiser HD595's that I'm a pretty big fan of. That being said, I'm looking for something that sounds a bit different this time around, and since these will be a secondary pair for me, I'd also like...

So I think I've found a decent headphone for portable use. I can't seem to get any suggestions for a better portable pare, and this one seems to meet all my criteria, which is around ear, straight cable, closed. Also it has a nice removable cable and folds. I was thinking about using it to take...

  Hi Guys,   Been browsing for a while and finally took the plunge on getting some better headphones from my old/cheap and now dog eaten AGK K321 iem's. I picked closed headphones over another iem for comfort and closed design for use at work (a must!). I researched what good closed...

Posted another thread but didn't get a reply so after some more research just would some of your knowledgeable opinions :) Decided I want to swap my new SRH440 (yay trail period) for something better. Highs and mids are great (acoustic, alternative rock) but I feel it is lacking with the lows...

Im looking for a pair of portable over ear headphones. I am currently looking at the Shure SRH440, Sony MDRXB600N, and the skullcandy crushers. I just want something with good sound quality and portablility(foldable). My budget is around 50 the 100 mark.

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...

I'm looking for passive noise isolating headphones that isolate against the noise from my neighbors. They have 4 noisy children that like to yell, run around and slam with the doors, and I am hypersensitive to sound and always at home due to chronic illness, which in combination makes me...

Hi. My sony mdr zx600 headphones are bothering my skull after long hours. Obviously at this price i can't find "perfect" headphones but i just need something that has good sound as well as being very comfortable. Full sized earcups that don't squish my head, closed back, solidly built and has...

Hi guys,   A few days ago, I was planning on buying Plantronics GameCom 780 to use while I play computer games. Well, I did a bit of searching and learned that if I really want to get the most bang for my buck, I should buy a clip on mic and get a real pair of 'phones. So here I am. I've...

Hi Audiophiles,   Which one of these cans can get higher volume, and handle more bass?   Sensivity of SRH440 is 105 dB/mW, impedance 44 Ohm, Max input power 500 mW   Sensivity of HD439 is 112 dB (1 kHz / 1Vrms)  impedance 32 Ohm, Max input power ? Couldnt find it.   The genres are Metal...

I'm looking to purchase a pair of IEM's to replace my Klipsch S4's which recently broke. I've outlined some of the important information to consider when choosing an IEM.   Budget - Up to $100. I'm willing to spend a little bit more if it's absolutely necessary to find the right headphone for...

Been a long time lurker but I thought to share this interesting find I'd discovered a couple of days ago. I've had the SRH440 for awhile now, it was fairly bass-shy but I really liked the clean and detailed sound of it. It occurred to me a couple of days ago as I was doodling with it, as I...

I've tried the shure 440 and really liked the sound signature, how detailed they are, and how they are easely push from my nexus 4. The thing is that they are not that comfortable for long session. Are there any comfortable full sized with the same type of sound than can be pushed without an...

Exhibiting tremendous restraint and not just leaping to a pair of 800's, I have slowly moved up the value / SQ chain with 20 pairs of cans. What would be the next good step up from the Pro80's? Closed or Open is fine. I listen to rock, jazz, current Asian pop, classical, prog, kraut, very...

Hi, im kinda new to the hobby and lately i just felt like i need a new set of headphones, im under tight budget tho as the title suggest.. im mainly going to use it on my android phone and on my pc. im looking at the Sennheiser 4xx series, particularly on the 439s or the shure SRH440. and also...

I have had the same pair of Shure SRH440 for the last 5-6 years and I absolutely LOVE them. They still sound amazing. However they have had a VERY hard life and are beginning to show the signs of age. I am still pretty new in the headphone game so I am not sure what I should move to. Do I just...

I really like the 280s bought today, though I just wish it had a few decibels less deep bass (the headroom chart shows it has a hump from 20-50Hz).   Any pairs, particularly Sennheiser, out there with a very similar but with slightly less deep bass? Also, anything around $100 or less.

Kinda need a new pair of headphones for on the go listening. I've narrowed my options down to these two due to the availability within my proximity. I tend to listen to classical, rock, metal, reggae and DnB. I am looking for a set of cans that do not drown out the detail in songs. The...

A few months ago, I picked up a pair of SRH440s, my first good headphone. I love the sound and the build quality, and the comfort is decent; but I'm a student so carrying them around in the halls and to classes isn't very easy. I don't like on-ear headphones, so I'd like to get some good IEMs...

DISCLAIMER: This by no means a professional review/evaluation of these headphones. No professional grade equipment where used in this shoot out. This is just to compare the different headphones that I have and use for recording and casual listening and to possibly contribute a bit to this forum...

Hi ,   I have a Shure SRH440 with the stock coiled cable , wanted to know if someone has tried any of the following cables on the headphones and if they worked ?  - AKG K451 or K452 cable - Pioneer HDJ 500T cable   what i m looking for is to have a shorter cable that has an inline...

Up until this point, I've always used cheaper headphones ($40 range), and I'm looking to invest in a pair of nicer cans. I'm currently in high school, so my budget is $150, on Amazon.com, since I happen to have some gift cards there.   I listen to EDM / Indie Rock mostly, and I'm looking for a...

Hey guys Looking for some punchy headphones, a fun sound, $60/£30 max, similar to the new skullcandy crushers, available on UK amazon, closed back, full size, looks not massively important but not ugly Thanks in advance

I mix mainly rap/hiphop, and need a quality pair of headphones that'll give me accurate representstion of sound. Ive been looking st the ATH-M50 and the SHR440, and while both have their pros snd cons, neither one has seemed to be what i'm looking for (one is too bassy, the other too bright) So...

Ath-M50 vs the srh-440 GO!!! Build quality Sound quality Practicality Portability Lets discuss this.
