I have Grado sr-80s and the high end is just too fucking pronounced for IDM (but they're amazing for jazz and classical). Thinking of getting some Sennheisers, something with a flatter response, so my eardrums don't get shredded listening to the likes of Autechre. Any suggestions? |

Beyerdynamic DT770 Pros are very very good. Flat freq response, light, closed (but not boxy). Recommended. I use a pair now. |

I'd rather have a few 15in. subwoofers and some good tweeters. I like to "feel" the music... |

The Beyers sound interesting... I like the fact that they are a closed design. Now that I'm married I'm more interested than ever in blocking out the world. :-) |

i have Koss porta pro wich are ok, but i'd like some more bass. i can't afford to much tho, how much are the Beyerdynamic? |

i use Koss for all the music i listen to - IDM, experimental rock, hip-hop, classical, pop, etc. it's a great all-around pair of headphones. for IDM it does the job, for more bass heavy stuff like jungle it could be better. |

i´ve got a question about this though... i´ve got a sony D-EJ925 discman, and some high-fidelity Technics RP-F290 headphones. i´ve tried A LOT of headphones on my cd walkman, but the highest volume sometimes isn´t high enough...Is it the walkman or the cans?? |

well you've tried lots of different headphones and its always not loud enough? that sounds like its the CD player then.... ...or its just your ears... maybe u just like it really loud |

I'm quite happy with my Sony MDR-7506 stereo monitor headphones. Great bass, great dynamic range, crisp sound...made well. They look nice too. |
||||||||

I have sennheisers (HD 495 .. if that means anything...its on the sides of the phones). really nice. |
||||||||
|

|
its the amplifyer in your discman.... it just cant supply enough power to your head phones... try plugging them into your serio system and see the difference |

Larger headphones will need a lot more power than tiny earbuds. Larger phones like the Beyer have a higher impedance than you standard issue walkman phones, so you won't be able to get a decent level using a walkman. It'll sap the batteries too. The DT770s are great pro headphones, but they do weigh in at a pro price too - £100. Ace bass though - listening to Flim and CTD (LLF Mix) really do vibrate your whole head. :-) |

hey... I have those SAME FOCKIN HEADPHONES... what a fucking small world eh? |

This site is the reason I ended up getting the sr-80s: http://www.goodcans.com/HeadphoneReviews/recommendations.ht m In the store they sounded awesome with classical music... it was only when I got them home and listened to some Autechre and Slayer that I found they were peaky in the highs. Next time I pass by an audio store I'm going to see if they have the Senn 580/590 and the Beyers in stock. |

i got sony mdr-v700 headphones. i wouldnt say that they are much better than others, but they look really cool. they were quite expensive. Sennheiser tend to be very reliable tho. |
