So yeah, I guess I have been thoroughly outed at this point. I will be checking this thread often if you have any questions.

Razer Megalodon

Proper 7.1 headphones, out end of July...

They have military technology in them the same as air craft pilots used during incoming misile awareness alarms.

I am holding out for them, I just put a G19 and G9 mouse with a Steal Series SX mat on my desk, I want to do the headphones thing right and those are the ones.

lol

You are living proof that people will buy anything!

I'd bet money that these are even more overpriced/crappy than the Bose.

To be fair they look like a decent set of 7.1 surround sound headphones.

I will be gaming and will need to have dirrectional awareness in game (Arma 2 for example).

I believe they will cost around £115 which is a great price.

For the sub £300, £500, or more I think the Megaladon look ok and as a future gamer they beat the heck out of the stupid logitech g35 with silly voice changing buttons (g35 @ £65).

i got some eshure something they retail like $499 or somethin...but is an amp really that necessary??

An amp isn't usually needed for IEM's as much as full sized headphones. That being said, Ray Samuels makes an amp specifically for IEM's:

charder- saw many of these at the Rio (at first I thought they were some type of bodog giveaway lookin at the "b" logo) I tried them at best buy today and they seemed pretty rockin-

do you have a review?

hey. I still have an imod with HD650s and an RSA portable amp. I never, ever use it anymore. If anyone is in the phoenix area and wants to see what it'd sound like don't hesitate to ask.

Condition of the HD650s?

Mechanically - 100% they work fine
visually, they're a little scratched on the headband.

I bought a pair of $12 JVC Marshmallows to hold me over until the Klipsch S4s are back in stock (supposedly any day now.) I doubt you'll find a better pair of earbuds for less than $25 than these.

Thanks for this

I have the "Predator" and would highly recommend getting an amp, whether you have IEM's or full size cans. What the amp can do for your IEMs is admittedly limited, but as far as my Grado RS-1's go, the difference is significant. Listening to Apocalyptica, Queen, and U2, ear to ear grin on my face, the highs are gloriously celebrated while distinct mids create an exceptional music experience.

Also had a great experience with Ray Samuels, helpful and prompt in email with quick shipping.

After a bit of research and some persuasion on the retailer's part, I bought a $100 extension cord from Fidelity Audio for my Shure SE530's. I honestly could not tell the difference between the standard extension that came with my IEM's, disappointed after having my hopes up based on the following email from Fidelity Audio.

i have one word for you all!!!

wow. excellent screen name. Thank you for making the decision to put you on ignore super-easy.

The Klipsch S4s are back in stock. I ordered a pair and they're arriving Monday.

Wow these just arrived. Incredible headphones for only 60 bucks. I'm awed.

Thanks again jeffman, alot

i had my HD650s for awhile listening to them w/o an amp. Just plugging them into my computer, didn't really know much (still don't) about headphones but a 2p2er recommended them. i found them online for like 325 w/ shipping and insta bought them.

i got an audio-gd compass not too long, and there is no comparison. i absolutely love it and would definitely recommend getting an amp.

^that was recommended to me by someone as a 'big bang for your buck midrange dac/amp combo'. cost me like 333 with shipping.

hey charder, i also bought the beats by dre headphones so i'll give a review of them.

I got them a while ago and probably ended up paying 350 cdn w/ tax and everything. I think the high's are good and same with the low's and if u listen to a lot of base i definitely recommend it. I havent tried too many headphones but they're very good and some songs dont sound the same without these headphones.

Great feature i like having is that is comes with a headset which is really helpful for me because when i make phonecalls they go through crisp and clear and the ppl on the other end can hear me fine as well.

one complaint i have with them are that they are kindv bulky.. but i think that goes for any over-ear headset really. they're good for gaming too & unless you're a super competitive gamer there may be a better option out there for you.

they're overpriced imo, but i dont really regret buying them

I want to get new headphones since I'm tired of carrying around my HD555s and wanted to know how the Sennheiser CX300-II stacks up against others in that price range. Most reviews I read had only good things to say. Also is the CX400 enough of a step up to justify the added price. From what I understand I'll never be able to get really good sound with canalphones so I don't want to spend too much given I have my HD555s for home use.

If you want a cheap portable pair, Sears is apparently clearing out some Sennheiser PX-100's now for around $15. (Normally $40 or so).

Only available in store - not online. Most will probably be sold out, but it's probably worth a look if there's a sears near you.

I purchased a pair of the Shure SE310's earbuds and I swear by them. I previously had the Bose in ear headphones and imo I think that SE310's have better sound quality and comfort.

Just my 2 cents.

My apologies if this has already been addressed, but after wading through x pages of the EDF fashion and watch threads respectively, I could only go through the last 2 of this one:

I'm looking for a set of earbuds that have a clip on them to keep them in your ears while you run/exercise. However I'd like the sound quality to be better than stock; I suppose sound quality comparable to the JVC Marshmallows would be sufficient from what I've gathered in this thread. Right now I'm using a set of Philips In-Ear headphones and I'd like to have that level of quality or greater.

any1 whose curious I broke my old Sennheiser noise cancelling headphones about a week ago so I bought the Bose QC3's (as I do a bit of travelling here and there) and can safely say they were worth the money. Absolutely superb quality and noise cancellation. (even on planes)
