So, I've been told to try the NVX XPT100 but they are not available where I live. The Brainwavz HM5 is supposed to be almost as comfortable. So now I'm looking for somewhere I can try them out ^^ My only problem is that I can't seem to find replacement cables with an inline mic, because the cable plugs into both ears. I was also told that the ath-m40x and the shure 440 are pretty good, but then I saw a review of the shure 440 which said they were not comfortable at all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I did get to try an ath-msr7 and a bose qc25, and they do not even begin to compare with my current headphones, so if HM5 or even the ath-m40x or the shure (which I think I have more chance to try) are close to that level, then I should be fine.

A Massdrop version of the Sennheiser HD700

Having had 2 home-run hits with the HD6XX and HD58X Jubilee, I'm hoping that Sennheiser and Massdrop can take some time to explore the possibility of a custom Massdrop version of the HD700. Even though I haven't had the opportunity to hear th...

Looking for a specific set of headphones

I'm looking for a set of headphones for a gift. They must be OVER EAR, with REMOVABLE CABLE and pads. They should also be LOW IMPEDANCE so no amp would be required. Last I think CLOSED BACK would be best and preferably not too bulky. Trying t...
