headphone

Hi, I am looking for a new pair of headphones. Currently I have the BLAM audio H1, but they are starting to wear out. I am on the fence of buying a pair of AKG K371 or EMU Teak, but I don't want to have a missed opportunity of models i haven't noticed. I do like the sound signature of slightly...

Budget: preferably below 500 but I can go slightly over. Source/amp: if an amp is required, I own the zen dac v2 and am looking at buying the zen ifi hip 2. Usage: I would like to use it at the office, on public transport possibly and at home. I know that means basically everywhere, but they...

I know these are questions that get asked a lot but I'm seeking some knowledge and advice. I'm looking at getting some headphones for music listening and also during calls in the home office. As the office shares a wall with my other-half's study then maybe closed back is a better option as one...

DISCLAIMER: I have already posted this on Reddit to r/headphones, but I wanted to get input from this community. Below is my post: So I got into audiophile headphones a a few years ago and now I own too much than any human should own hahaha. I honestly love the way each one presents music...

Some days ago I was reading reviews of headphones and IEMs, and their frequency responses compared against a "neutral" target curve, and that got me thinking... Contrary to a "preference" target curve, a "neutral" target curve, as far as I know, is defined by using a head (+torso?) simulator...

Hi, new here, first post. I have two broken DT880s here, broken mostly due to the fact they can't receive a signal since the wires broke. On one, that jack is broken. On the other, the wire is ripped. I'm absolutely done with headphones without a removable wire or with an impossible-to-repair...

Just discovered relatively new release from Final Audio: UX3000 Final Audio UX3000 @Resolve posted a measurement on Twitter: Price for these is 149Eur. Had to get pair and to my surprise I like these more than Mark Levinson 5909. Lack of an app is the only downside from my point of view...

For about one year my absolute favourite listening setup is an active stereo 3-way (3 separate amplifiers) DIY construction with listening distance of 10-20 cm (depend on the Head position), made from HIFIMAN HE500, Visaton AL-180 for the bass (analogue crossover) and 2 x Dayton Epique E180 via...

-High detail/resolution. You perceive a clean and detailed sound. -Optimal soundtage. I'm not necessarily looking for a massive stage but one that doesn't feel intimate. -Accurate imaging. Easy to locate instruments and/or voices. -Deep bass. I'm not a basshead but I do consider that bass in...

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.
