| Any1 Use Professional Headphones???
Just curious, anyone else use professional headphones when listening to music? They're a great investment, especially in the amount of hours I put towards music everyday. I got myself an ATH-M50 for $125 (I think) last year. The only downside is that they make poorly mixed music sound worse, which is a shame because Black Metal tends to fall in this area.

These guys are my new favorite Death Metal group. Similar recs PLEASE! | 2 | | Benighted Asylum Cave
^ | 3 | | Winterus A Frozen Path
The only good song on here is Solace Forever, but I love the song to death. | 4 | | Winterus In Carbon Mysticism
Won this CD in a contest these guys held by submitting your favorite metal vid. Got it signed and everything, but the thing is... I don't like it. If anything, its just okay. Probably should've listened to it first, but I just assumed it was similar to A Frozen Path ^ | 5 | | Paysage d'Hiver Paysage d'Hiver
This shit was like discovering Burzum my first time again. Loved it. I listened to Winterkalte and didn't like that one as much for some reason. Still downloaded some of his other albums and gonna give them a listen. | 6 | | In Flames Sounds Of A Playground Fading
This is actually not to bad. I'm going through their entire discography, and so far i'm mostly a fan of their newer stuff, even though some of the newer albums are just weak. Come Clarity is still my favorite by them. | 7 | | Peste Noire L'Ordure a l'etat Pur
WHERE THE FUCK IS MY CD?! | |

06.23.11 | I also have those ATH's and they rule. They're monitors so they don't colour up the sound which I think is the best thing to wear, regardless of what kind of music you listen to. | ev0ken
06.23.11 | i used to own a pair of sennheiser headphones a few years back, i ended up selling them though. I forgot which model they were also. | WhiteTieBlackJacket
06.23.11 | Got me some Grados. The sound is beautiful but the comfort isn't there. | ctaxxxx
06.23.11 | Yeah, they do bring a pretty natural sound. I almost got Grados because everyone was saying it was the best for typical metal, but the retailer suggested I get these, and I sure don't regret it. They're comfortable as hell too, and the Grados were supposedly the exact opposite. | ev0ken
06.23.11 | number 4 is pretty good actually. gotta listen to 3. 1,2,5 and 5 are also great too.
i have recs for 1/2 but i can't think of any atm. but try emeth- Insidious, i was listening to a few songs today from that album. it's mostly just bdm though. | ctaxxxx
06.23.11 | Winterus' new direction was just unexpected, but to be honest it does have some good parts. The mix however just hinders it, which I'm pretty sure they just wanted to be more "raw". My biggest complaint was the balancing; drums too loud, and guitars were not very audible in comparison. | ev0ken
06.23.11 | oh if you want an album thats really dumb heavy in the mixing listen to Adversarial- All Idols Fall Before the Hammer all you really hear is the snare, but it's pretty sweet in my opinion, i like it. it's like blacked/death metal. |
