Headphones

Hi Im looking for headphones for under 100 bucks im interested in anything thats good and is portable as well as i tend to commute alot daily Im looking at 2 headphones in particular is Sennheiser HD 380 Pro Collapsible High end Headphones - Black http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sennheiser-HD-380-Pro-Collapsible/dp/B001UE6I0G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1368134475&sr=8-1&keywords=sennheiser+380 or Sony V55 Headphones http://addnow.co.uk/sony-v55-headphones Any recommendations?

After using low-end earphones so far, I finally decided to upgrade by buying Harman Kardon's NC. Being new to high-end headphones (or whatever they are) I have a quick question for you audiophiles.... It seems that sound quality in left and right (irrespective of the song & who is listening i.e. me or my wife) is slightly different. Overall sound quality when listening from both sides is just fine. But, I am wondering, if this imbalance is normal (what do I know about headphones?) OR is it a technical defect? Hoping for some genuine help!

Hi, I'm looking to buy some new earphones and came across crappy earbuds, I don't actually know a lot about the brand so hoping you guys would. Just wondering if anyone knows about the quality of them. My price range is within the same as these, just thought they looked good with the crystals and have money knocked off Sorry forgot the link: no spam

I am thinking of getting another pair of AKG K271 again. I used to own them and mostly liked them. I think I remember that they were not quite as smooth as I would have liked in the treble and many a tiny bit lacking in bass but overall them were pretty neutral and very comfortable. Is there another pair of closed (full sized, comfortable) headphones that I should look at? I have the a pair of Thunderpants but don't love them and would like something more neutral. I have a couple of supra-aural cans (Sennheiser Momentum and Audio Technica ESW9) and I am not interested in those. I guess I also have a pair of Audio Technica ATH-900ltd that I let Tim use. I also …

QUAD's new "FLOAT QA" headphones coming to the New York Show I am exited to see this. Since I am going to the show I will make a point to listed to these and see how I like them. My Float collection might get a new member if I like these. Anyone else is exited to see this coming to NYC show?

Monster is whacking Fanny on alleged "trade dress infringement." Wha..? Looks like the Solo. I wonder how they sound?

A friend alerted me to this and I didn't see it posted anywhere else: http://gizmodo.com/5990520/scientists-have-made-graphene-earphones-and-theyre-amazing I'm not really surprised that a membrane that thin yet strong can produce good sound. But I am excited to see who adopts this tech first and what sort of amp is required to drive them.

Hello. I'm new here on the forums, as well as to this audiophile hobby, and want to buy my very first pair of hi-fi headphones. I live in Brazil, and the options here are very scarce. I recently had the opportunity to get the HE-400 new(latest revision, with velour pads) for a fair price, and wanted to know your opinion on them. Has anyone here ever heard them? Do they offer a good sound/price ratio? Can you tell me more about its sound signature and qualities? Thanks, and sorry if i've made any grammar mistake. English's not my native language and it's been a while since i used it, so it's a little rusty. José Carlos.

So right now im looking at the KRK KNS 6400's they seem ok but i was wondering if anyone had any opinions or other recommendations?

Hi everyone, That surely has been awhile (again)! I wanted to say hi and ask a question since I'm browsing the boards a little again (probably not for long). I hope you're all doing fine! I still see quite a bit of familiar names around here, the only person I've missed so far is Vicky. As some of you have seen over at the other side I'm currently in the process of selling my ED9s, yes the time has finally come! Seeing that I started out with the 750s and (finally) noticing a lot of bad things happening) I felt at the time the ED9s were a great step up. It actually had something that could go for a midrange. Add more speed detail etc to the mix and I thought it w…

Had my T50 rp for about 3 weeks now. Maybe 70 hrs burn in thus far. Waiting on internal mods until my replacement pads come in. In the meanwhile i DL EQU for iphone/ipad and TBH these things with my amp have done a 180. I now have soundstage, improved dynamics and decay. Anyone else experience this? or should i simply put the pipe down? Trav

Hi im looking to buy headphones but i dont know much about it and whats on the market now. I ve done some research and i found these: -Denon AH-P372 -Audio-Technica ATH-FC700 -MEElectronics HT-21 my price range is more or less the price of those three that i mentioned(like 20-40 euro). im looking for decent sound, they need to be comfortable of course(using them for 2-3 hours), outside noise isolation as much as possible in this price range, same for the sound coming out of the headphones to the outside. So if u have any suggentions that would be great and whats ur oponion on those headphones. Thank you.

I've got a Unique Melody Merlin demo on loan and it sounds great. I'm opening this thread since I've never read anything here about the company, and based on what I'm listening, they appear to deserve some careful consideration, especially given JH Audio's dubious customer support. The Merlin is a hybrid, and has dual highs, dual mids and a dynamic for lows. It's more forward than my JH13s and delivers more bass - stepping into HE500 territory -, but without losing any definition or texture. It's a pretty fun sound signature, although more grainy and a bit less refined than that of the JH. But then it's about 200 bucks cheaper, and the build quality is considerably bet…

So I've been looking for a solid pair of earphones (under $100), not in-ear phones (they feel like Q-tips to me), and not headphones....just something like those earphones that come with your Ipod but sound much better. Now I can obviously see why stores won't let you test them, because who'd want to wear a pair that's been in 100's of people's ears? That being said I come to you, and look for some advice on a good pair you'd recommend. Quick info: • I listen to a lot of classic rock/ballads, not sure if this helps recommend a pair? • I am not a fan of bass, the whole thump-thump sounds people obsess over isn't something I care for much. I like the sounds t…

Can't wait to see measurements. I mean for a fucking suit to match.

Looks just like the K550 except with the quickly-becoming-ubiquitous iOS microphone-&-remote in the cable. PDF

No, I'm not getting them, I have enough headphones, I'm not getting them, I have enough headphones, I'm not getting them, I have enough headphones, I'm not getting them, I have enough headphones... But, dang, I'm curious.

So recently i have been trying to find a headphone that is within my budget of (Below $80) i've done some research and found some headphones that might be right for me. I use headphones mainly for enjoying music and playing games. I currently have the Philips SHP805 and I enjoy the quality that this headphone provides me, but now I’m looking for better headphones. I'm not a hardcore gamer and just need a headphone that when I’m playing first person shooter games i could hear where the footsteps are clearly. Sound Quality is what matters to me at most. Sorry I'm completely new to buying headphones. Thank You! Here's a list of headphones i think are the best f…

Seems random, but I was looking into Senn IE80s, and came across this: http://www.headphonestore123.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=150 Everything screams it's too good to be true, and the domain name doesn't give me much confidence either, but still. It's cheap. And their prices on the other headphones aren't quite as discounted as these. Anyone want to just tell me straight up it's a scam before I buy these one night in a drunken stupor?

It looks like Engadget has the scoop (Head-Fi hype aside) on these cans: http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/11/v-moda-m-100-audiophile-headphones-hands-on-interview-val-kolton/ I wonder how they'll compare to my brother's new Beyerdynamic DT 1350's.

Anyone heard of these? I was in one of the music stores here and they had a few Westones as well as this model. Never even heard of them.

So where to start... I didn't want to post anything until I actually got my hands on at least a few of the new "un-veiled" LCD3s. I've heard three of these new ones and measured two so far. I suspect these new LCD3s don't quite sound the same as the "un-veiled" ones heard at CanJam, because they depart from the Audeze house sound quite a bit. The two pairs I've measured have excellent driver matching, and they even match each other quite well too. This would be a first for Audeze (at least from the cans that I've heard myself.) BTW, I'm not going to bore anyone with graphs - you guys know where to get them - or you can just ask. On that topic, I would like to see Audez…
