headphones

Hey, I have been into audiophile activities for about three years now, and bought a pair of sennheiser HD600s. About a week ago I had the "great" idea to purchase an audio splitter, so I could hear the speakers and headphones running at the same time. Turns out, it is the most open soundstage I...

I recently purchased a second hand pair of the P7 headphones after being pretty disappointed with the PX7, particularly when plugged into an amplifier. I must admit, I am a bit of a B&W fan since I have a set of 606 s2 speakers paired with the Rotel a11 tribute and Rega Planar 2 turntable...

Hello! I have looked through dozens of "best of" lists but I am getting really confused and overwhelmed by the selection so before I pull the trigger I would like to ask the community for some advice. I am looking for a pair of wireless headphones (over-ear or on-ear both work) with a budget...

Previously I was using AK Junior with Shure SE425. I've upgraded to AK SR25 so that music management would be simpler with spotify and I thought maybe it's a good time to upgrade my headphones as well. I was trying to find information of what source-to-headphones budget ratio is recommended for...

Goodmorning everyone! I would like to buy headphones and a dac / amp (if needed) for a total budget of € 300, maximum € 350. I would use them mainly for playing games and listening to music. Both open and closed back are fine, as long as they are comfortable, especially with glasses. I tried the...

Hi all, I'm looking to get a pair of bluetooth headphones (likely the AKG Y400s), and I can't find out if the built in microphone will be compatible with an iPhone over Bluetooth. I thought this would all be fine, but the sales assistant in the shop (who was very helpful) wasn't sure that the...

Hi! Right now I use my Sennheiser HD 598 and a SoundBlasterXG5 to listen to music on my pc (Flac files). What do you think about this setup? I'm no more satisfied and I'd like to do a serious upgrade. What should I consider to buy?

Hello, the last couple of months I've been trying headphones and a few dacs. I listen the HD599, HD560s, Audio Technica M20X, Hiby FC1, LG V30 and my own phone as a DAP. If I'm honest every time I changed the gear I felt something was lacking but when I returned to use them, I wasn't happy...

Hello. Hi. I'm not an audio guy. My MB is X399 Designare EX, with ALC1220. I'm looking to buy an all in one compact solution which can power my DT 770 Pro 250 olms as I don't have much desk-space. The best DAC/AMP combo in my price range I could find was the Hel Schiit. Why am I trying to buy...

Hi, I need your help! I’m looking for the best closed back bass heavy headphones for music production under 300eu. I’m currently choosing between ATH-M50x and Meze 99 Neo. Are there any better options out there? And which headphones should I go with? Can’t wait to hear your opinions!

Hi, I'm currently the owner of a sony wh-1000xm3, a bose soundsport wireless, an audio-Technica ath-m50x and a Sennheiser hd559. An earphone recently caught my eye, the Campfire Audio IO. But I'm not sure if it's really worth it to get it. I don't have any way of hearing the buds without buying...

Using a desktop setup, PC streaming via Spotify & Soundcloud through an Ifi Zen Dac and then into a pair of Hifiman Sundara, which works good in low-noise situations. However, I'm looking for a second pair of headphones: closed back: for when I need to isolate myself from surrounding noise at...

I was looking for a headphone that gives a speaker like experience, a surround sound feel. Is there any product like that in $100 to $200 range ?

Hey, I would like to buy Sony WH-1000XM4 but currently I have smartphone - Xiamomi MI9 that has only Bluetooth 4. Does it impact the performance or maybe reduce the quality? Thanks.

Hello, my system doesn't provide a balance audio reproduction. My headphones have so much bass than needed, I think this affects all the frequencies like mids or highs. So I did some research and look for some audio test to do an eq preset. So finally, I have my preset done. I reduced about 4 or...

Hey, guys and gals! I got valuable help from the neighboring section on Hi-Fi, and the guys advised me to ask about headphones here (mentioning @anort3). :) Would be great to hear your thoughts! I'm kinda new to all this. Thanks in advance! So, I have the following set of parameters brewing in...

What's a great HiFi streaming setup that doesn't take up too much room. I'm really trying to go with just a few boxes, rather than stringing together a bunch of stuff. I don't need volume- it's a small room- but want quality sound both in my phones and speakers (ideally bookshelf). I do have a...

I've had the Sennheiser HD 25 for a few years now, and I enjoy the headphones. I've got a few DJ friends and they all use these, although, I'm not a DJ myself :) Now, there's so much information circulating about more "hi-fi" headphones, that I feel I might be missing out on better quality...

I have a Samsung Q7FN. I will need references for good Bluetooth earphones or headphones. I have a Level U but is falling into pieces, and soon will die. I bought online a AKG Y600NC but I rad some reviews from users saying it's not a good device. so in case this phone is really bad and if I...
