Spychedelic Whale Posted September 30, 2010 Report Posted September 30, 2010 Well I finally got my system complete with the M^3 and I just don't like/find my system to sound anything special. Right now I have an Northstar 192 MKI and the M^3 using the laptop as a transport. I had the HF2 but it looks I'm not a grado person and for the reasons stated I sold it. Since I just got the M^3 I'm willing to give the system another try with a new headphone before I sell everything. I'm open to your suggestions. Quote
Spychedelic Whale Posted September 30, 2010 Author Report Posted September 30, 2010 Budget? Music preference? I'm willing to spend about 450$ on a used one. My listening habits its mostly electro,indie/rock and some folk. Quote

Spychedelic Whale Posted October 1, 2010 Author Report Posted October 1, 2010 JHI6's? Actually I do have them and I think their pretty much perfect, but I still like the idea of having an headphone for the times I don't feel like sticking stuff on the hear or be isolated from the world and being able to share it with family and close friends is a plus.

If not, you're missing out. Quote
Spychedelic Whale Posted October 1, 2010 Author Report Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) I don't get why you guys are being so harsh.. By this time I was hoping I could get some useful help from headcase community. Edited October 1, 2010 by Spychedelic Whale Quote
luvdunhill Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 The harshness probably comes from the "last ditch effort before I sell everything" mentality. It doesn't work that way, it's not about the end it's about how you got there. Quote
swt61 Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 I don't get why you guys are being so harsh.. By this time I was hoping I could get some useful help from headcase community. You did from manaox2, and I agree that the LCD-2 might be the next headphone to try. Being an Iso/Orthodynamic you might like the speed and sound signature. Quote
Dusty Chalk Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 I don't get why you guys are being so harsh.. I'm not being harsh, just silly and random (and, admittedly, unhelpful). Trust me, if I was being harsh, I'd make sure you knew. Quote
atothex Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 AD2000 fanboy here. Haven't heard LCD2 yet. Quote
The Monkey Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Just get an O2 and a KGSS and be done with it. Quote
GPH Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Speakers? As far as I'm concerned, all dynamic headphones I've heard had at least one major flaw, but if I had to recommend one, I'd say Sennheiser HD650. Unfortunately, they're painfully slow compared to electrostats, which means you should listen to The Monkey's opinion, if only because you don't want him to get angry at you. Quote
postjack Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 everyone goes for speed and midrange purity eventually. the journey is fun though. Quote
Cankin Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 K701, decent sounding and different from HF2. Quote
