echelon 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2010 Hi people, I'm currently looking for a headphone that cost below $300. However I would want the headphone to sound clear with good soundstage, most importantly for vocal and instrument, I will need some bass too. I am looking at Grado SR225 and Sennheiser HD595, please recommend me anything that deserve to be considered. Also on the other hand, I would like to ask if there is custom cables available for the IE8 too, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bpribadi 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2010 Since you posted in portable section, I assume you are looking for portable not full size headphones. For portable headphones, I recommend V-Jays or Tracks AIAIAI. I have compared them with Koss PortaPro LE, and they sound better, more natural, lively, with more bass and treble extension. While V-Jays is a very good all-rounder, for vocal and acoustic instruments, I prefer Tracks AIAIAI. You can read my friend review here: http://www.headfonia.com/?p=4537 Or if you are looking for IEM, you may try Superlux HD381F and Hippo Shroom. HD381F has thicker mid and better bass, while Hippo Shroom is excellent in clarity and instruments separation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The V-jays seems to be a Not So Popular choice most would recommend, but it sure is a ultra light portable GOOD sounding headphones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

V-Jays is a new model, just released last year if I'm not wrong, so, not yet popular because it is new, not many people have it yet. For example, model like PortaPro already in the market for more than 25 years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
