How are these compared to the SR60i or even the SR80i? I have the sr60i

I got two bose headsets which are great, the grado is for sound even more better, but you can only use them when you are alone in the room. They are open and your bystanders will not enjoy your music as you do :-) Thats the only reason i bought bose a d for the noise reduction whilst traveling ..... sorry they are the only grado i have ....

I've had the SR125 headphones for two or three years now and use them at work. They're still in great shape and sound great. They are open headphones though, so you do have to take other folks in the room under consideration.

It gets subjective here. I would say if you have the 60's these would sound better. I don't think that the difference between the 80's and the 60's is worth getting the 80's. I'm pleased with the 125's and would do it again given the opportunity.

They are noticeably more adept to separating instruments from vocals. I would skip these and go straight to the 225i though. They are the sweet spot.

I was in the same boat, but I think they are the best bang for your buck. Had them for 2 years now, still loving them

I had a couple pair of S4's and they sounded really great. The S3's aren't as good and the S6's are too bassy. Someone stole my S4's and I am upset about that. I'm thinking about springing for another replacement pair. They matched well throughout my Mastering process in the studio. Someone can steal my S3's. haha

Sounds like you are used to the sound of great open back headphones. I will say that in terms of treble detail you may find the sr80e to have an edge on these but in terms of overall sound, these will bring the articulate and accurate bass that is absent in the grados. The sr850's for me excel across the entire sound spectrum, they are excellent for movies and especially video games. Soundstage is truly excellent. Gta V has never sounded so alive. Music is much more immersive and balanced comparing to the sr80, despite it being open back. Hope this helps.

I am currently running Sundown SA 12's In the enclosure. Jl is great I have owned 12W7's before but no turning back for me. Only issue is they knocked off my rear view mirror. You can get SA 12s around 199 a piece, to me outstanding value for their insane performance

These are one of the best, but not the ultimate best. The problem is "best" is partially subjective. As for the other part, Custom IEMs take the spot for the best you can purchase. As for universals, like these SE846s, they are quite highly regarded in the community.Personally, I like my Westone UM Pro 50s better but at this price point they are extremely at what they do.

Hi Ben. Sorry, can't give you a compare of IE800's to Solo2 or HD700. I haven't owned them or listened to compare. I read in some reviews where people compared IE800 as little brothers of HD800, which are a higher model compared to HD700. What I can tell you about IE800 is following. These are very tiny year buds and the way how they are constructed they are suited more for listening while seating still. They only come with rubber tips that don't hold firmly in your year canal and you don't have the option of wrapping the cable around the year like you'll find in Sure models. I personally find myself having to push them back in place while walking. They also come with a very short cable which you may find a problem as well. You may want to check if Sennheiser offers an additional longer cable sold separately. If you intend using year buds while in active motion, I think Sure SE846 or SE535 models will be more suitable. SE535 have very weak base, in my opinion. SE846 are comparable to IE800. Sure's also come with polyfoam tips that expand in your year canal and hold in place more firmly and also provide better sound isolation. Hope this helps.

Yes, works great on my sr80i headphones. I recommend them, the pads are worth it.

I had a pair of the 150s. Sounded very good, the 150 got dropped and cracked the magnet support. Not repairable so don't drop these!! Only real difference I see is the 350's can be turned up louder to cover more space. The 150's are a really good value. Good clear sound across the freq ranges, bass seems a little better on the 350's. Unless you have a really large area to cover the 150's are great. I replaced the 150's with the 350's just to have something different.

I am wondering the same .... debating between the TC60i and TC80i for rear suround ... is there much of a difference between teh 6.5 vs 8 inch ... only intended to be used for movies.

Hey Hunter, the sound of these cans are much more balanced than the ATH-M50s (with the NC off, naturally). The treble is much less piercing than the m50s, and the low end is much tighter as compared to the m50s. Especially with the price drop, I would say that the ue6000s are a much better buy than m50s given they are comparably priced.

I've never heard the IE80, I have the grado G10 and the 800s are better. Yeah they are a lot of money but they do sound real good, I'm happy.

Frank, thanks a million for your comparison review of the SR100 vs SR300. I am dissapointed in the low light video's of my SR100 and thought the SR300 would be better as the low light lux specs are better. After reading your review of the low indoor video quality of the SR300 I will stay with my SR100. I shoot mostly indoors so the quality of indoor video's are important to me. Dean M.

80/20's will be bright, while the bronze will enhance the low end. That's my experience!

The Grado's are a bit more flat and maybe a bit treble-heavy and bass-lite. The PX100s are a bit more bassy and can't get ultra-highs. It all prefers really on what you listen to. The PX100s are best for hip-hop, dance, pop, or if you strictly want something comfortable. The SR60s are best for rock, classical, more upbeat techno, and a bit less comfortable. It's all based on taste.

They are the best IEM I currently own... Whether they are the best I can buy, please refer below: In the current market, the following are the other UIEMs I researched on: 1. AKG K3003 2. Sennheiser ie800 3. FitEar ToGo334 Each of the above mentioned have their own sound signature, as well as, respective pros and cons. But, I chose the SE846 for the following reasons: 1. It has removable cables (K3003 cables are not removable and the ie800 are partially removable only from middle section). It is important to me, knowing that, cables are usually the first thing that wears out in earphones, and, because I am quite picky about the comfort around my ears; 2. You are able to slightly adjust the sound signature through the replaceable noozles (this was a big factor to me as well, since I live in a country where I cannot test either one of the above mentioned, so, to be able to adjust the sound signature is very much like a risk management :-P...); 3. Heard great things about FitEar ToGo 334, but, not very easy to find them. Having said the above, there is another category of IEMs i.e. custom in ear monitors (CIEMs), there are good brands such as JH Audio, 1964 Ears, Ultimate Ears in this category. Unfortunately, I live in a country whereby it is too troublesome to get custom fitted IEMs; however, if you live in a country where the afore mentioned brands have their representative stores/dealers, please go and check out. By the way, JH Audio has recently launched their new flagship JH Roxanne. Based on the initial feedbacks, it seems that, they sound awesome. Hope the above mentioned, answers your question Cheers Simon T.

Sorry I have not had the chance to listen to the ue 6000s, so I can not offer a comparison. What I can say is they are built like a tank and the quality and durability is exceptional. They are not the best sounding headphones I have but that is all subjective. They are natural sounding with a little added bass and I highly recommend for djing. If your looking for listening headphones I would look elsewhere and you will save some $.
