    Sony MDR-V300 Tip Broke. need new headphones

    The koss ksc-35 for $20. It's the best sub $50 phone I've heard. I like it better than the px 100, and hd 497. Amped it gets close to the $70 Grado sr-60, but with more bass...

    HD 201's

    The 201 is pretty damn good for the price, it's sound is tilted toward dark with it's slightly recessed mids and the driver reaches it's excursion limit with louder bass, so playing bass heavy things loudly is out with these. The headband seem a bit weak, so I think they should be treated with...

    in the market for some headphones

    If they carry everything on their brick & mortor store that they have in their web store, then maybe you can try out different phones before you buy. After looking at their site, I'd suggest the AKG 240s,Sennheiser HD 215 and on the top $$ end, the Beyerdynamic DT 880(needs an amp).

    in the market for some headphones

    Do a head-fi search on the Audio-Technica A500 and Sennheiser hd 555 50 ohm. http://www4.head-fi.org/forums/index.php?

    Sennheiser HD 212Pro or Sony MDR-V300

    Sell both and get a better set.

    Need new closed cans

    The bass and highs are two of the 770's strong points, usually when someone says something about the bass it's because they aren't getting enough juice or there's an impedance matching issue. What is this solid amp that you speak of?

    Need new closed cans

    The A900, AKG K271s, Beyer DT 250-80 and DT 990 are ones in the same price range as the 770 that you may want to do a head-fi search on.

    Amplifier for headphones

    Oh yea, I'm enjoying a recently received Mister X built M3 right now. Maybe check into a pimeta or even a used amp. http://www4.head-fi.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=5&f=55 *Mister X , that M3/8065 combo really helps the 580 come out, gives it a depth and liveliness that I...

    Looking for quality around-the-neck headphones

    I'd recommend koss ksc-55's if you really want that style, but the koss ksc-75 clip-ons would be a good set too.

    Best ~100 dollar open headphones

    Yea, the A500 is closed. The senn hd-555, if you can get it for $100 would be good. The 485 is good from what I've heard of it. If you can find the AKG k240s for that price, I think it woud work well for you. The Alessandro MS1 or Grado sr-80 are great phones, but not all that good for...

    DJ Headphones Recommendation

    Take a look at the Sony V6 or 7506(NOT the V600), Sennheiser HD-25 or the HD-215.

    See if those songs that had the sibilance were 128kb/s.

    Recommend Headphones for Running

    I wouldn't recommend canalphones for running, the isolation could get you killed, unless you're going to be on a track. Then I guess it's up to you whether the occlution(footsteps,breathing) and cord micrphonics are too much.

    Recommend Headphones for Running

    Koss ksc-75 clip-ons for $14. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0006B486K/qid=1118094667/sr=8-1/ref=pd_csp_1/103-7256262-1591843?v=glance&s=electronics&n=507846 You won't find much better for under $50, especially for active use. A bit on the bassy side(not overly though), but I...
