I got an etymotic mc5, I got it since December 2011, it's still working but I can the inside of the cable on some part (I don't know how to explain this). Also I got a bose earphone (2008/2009), never really use this & when I clean it, the cable is also rip apart? How to maintain the earphone properly? I always put it on the case for etymotic. Any suggestion? Thank you. | ||

I am looking for some good in-ears. They should have a microphone and decent sound would like to use them for playing since my neck is getting tired sometimes by wearing a big heavy headset. I tested some sennheise in-ears, but after roughly 3 hours of playing my ears started to hurt (not because the sound was too loud, they did not seem to fit for my ears). So are there some super in-ears that fit every ear or do I have to test them all ? | ||

Now it's time to get myself a dedicated headphone amp and perhaps a little DAC for that extra audio boner. tl:dr, HD600 is the best 400$ I've ever spent. | ||

http://www.amazon.co.uk/AKG-Closed-Back-Reference-Class-Headphones/dp/B005CNR7B0 Or Audio-Technica ATH-A900X possibly, though that should probably have a little less bass to begin with. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Technica-ATH-A900X-Monitor-Headphones-Electronics/dp/B005TCZIQA These should definitely have less recessed mids than DT 770 Pro 80. Or if you've still got those, try EQing down the bass and maybe the treble spike, maybe a slight boost around 200 Hz. | ||

This has to be one of the best purchases I've ever done. The bass has enough power to give you that oomph, but never overpowering the mids and highs, which are absolutely perfect. The highs are in my opinion the strong point, details gets more pronounced even on songs you've listened to a thousand times. Now it's time to get myself a dedicated headphone amp and perhaps a little DAC for that extra audio boner. tl:dr, HD600 is the best 400$ I've ever spent. Gratz man those are pretty good, Iw had those for 2 years as main headphones and then upgraded to audeze lcd-2:s 1,5years ago as main phones and trust me going from hd600 to audeze is atleast the same step as going from generic phone iems or porta pros to HD600  | ||

If anyone has experienced both the SR60i and 80i? Is the improvement something dramatic? ![[image loading]](http://blog.soundearphones.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/60.jpg) | ||

Do you consider IEMs (in-ears, canalphones) to be viable options? Budget? | ||

My budget is € 200, I want them to be Circumaural and i rather have them not make that static noise because it's kinda ruining the ingame sound, also it needs to be shipped to The Netherlands and i can't use a credit card but i can use Paypal. | ||

Headphones do not make 'static noise', your source does, so you might want an insensitive pair or cheap soundcard. | ||

I need to get an amp as my asus xonar dx just can't drive a pair of 300 ohm cans.

Those LCD-2 is a thousand dollars and my HD600 cans are less than half of that :D I did try the Denon AH-D7100 aswell, and honestly i liked the sound of the HD600 more and those are are a thousand dollar plus as well. Wish i could've listened to those LCD-2s, but they didn't have them sadly. | ||

As for the music, I like piano+vocals, rock and dubstep. Kinda hard to satisfy all those needs I guess, but judging by a few hours of research, people seem to think that the m50 is a great allrounder. Also, how come it costs god damn 200$ in every norwegian online store, but costs like 130$ on Amazon? and then like 180$ on amazon.uk | ||
