sennheiser is a quality brand overall. they get great reviews.

i hate those huge headphones, though, so i just have these. $80 well spent. they're nice, loud and simple and quality enough to not be those cheap ones that break after a short time.

I've never seen those before. I usually just use the classic white that come with any iPhone or iPod. Were they $80 at the Apple store? Is there anywhere that their cheaper?

i just remembered that i actually didn't pay $80. lol

but yeah they're $80 at the apple store, if they still carry them. i got them a little cheaper on amazon.

but other than that, don't expect to pay less than $60. they're worth it, though, imo.

Sennheiser HD 800 doesnt have enough Bass arent those for classical and jazz ?their too bright , only good thing about the HD 800 is the soundstage which the LCD-2 is minimal

i need something to go with this

If you're getting that serious go with some Grado's or Stax's

 

[gregzzy23]

I copped Klipsh S4i's ($100 retail) on amazon for $50 (they change in price every day) and I'm pretty happy with them so far

Stax you need a 5000.00 Amp to drive those

 

[mondaynightraw]

Stax you need a 5000.00 Amp to drive those

no, you don't.

 

[sladewilson]

There's a big difference but unless you're dropping 5k on Stax its kind of a moot point. You can pick up the SR-507's and you don't need a $5000 amp. The clarity in those is amazing. You obviously want something open ear and that breathes new life into your collection. I'm a live sound engineer and every once in awhile work with a symphony who employees this old audiophile to come in and record them. He bring a suitcase full of Grado and Stax's. They all sound amazing but the Stax really stand out. No mixing or processing, just a stereo mic downstage center. I swear by my Sony MDR-7506's, I have like ten pair, and they're an industry standard for a reason, but the Stax really impressed me. I know they're apple's and oranges but the clarity and definition was amazing.

For the price and quality they are good. They fit me kind of snug which which can be uncomfortable at times but I am hoping after continuous wear they stretch out. The sound quality is crisp, I hear more of the low sounds, base is good and I do not have to worry about sound leaking.
