These or the Behringer MS16's? Looking at some equipment for my first real music setup. Which is better? The AV30's or the MS16's?

Amazon asked me to respond. I have the AV40's. Use them with my TV and a subwoofer.....absolutely no complaints!

I bought the AV40's. They are -very- good. I don't have experience with the AV30's or the MS16's. Looking at the reviews, spending a few extra dollars for the AV40's is the way to go.

I've never used either of the system's you've mentioned, but I run my RC-300 at the end of a LOT of input; POD HD 500, Elec. Keys, Elec. Drumkit, a handful of various analog and digital stomps (Boss and Behringer primarily-Reverse and Delay), and a Digitech Loopman. All of this is simultaneous, and I can't say I've lost any tone whatsoever, and believe me, there's some crazy amounts of variety in frequency as well as modulation that go together at once. You honestly have no worries with this piece of equipment. However, you WILL LOSE TONE without proper amplification and cables. You'll need to consider spending a pretty penny on some quality powered speakers and sturdy cables if you want to preserve your tone. I've been running a standard Fender FM100 Stack for a while and it cuts all of the bass from the kit, keys, and effects, as well as adds too much treble to the snare and higher registers. If you ever multi-link instruments with a y-cable, get a good one. I have a cheapo one right now and both the keys and the guitar/POD system have their decibel values decreased severely. Soooo... In short, you should marry this loop system.

Hey. I have never owned the HD 650 but I can tell you that they are very commonly used in the studio and therefore have very flat sound. That's why you get that veil in the vocals (especially female vocals). The HD598 was made with audiophiles in mind but they are very enjoyable to listen to. The vocal and acoustic part of the midrange is the best I've heard in that price range. It's clear, spacious, and full without being heavy. I personally use my Hd598s to edit female vocals and piano and I am very happy with them. Many audiophiles say that the 598s are more enjoyable to listen to than the 650s or 600 despite the cheaper price.

My experience with Behringer has all been bad. I bought 2 new Behringereffects pedals. Both went bad after very little use and they refused to honor the warranty. I would stay away from them.

I would choose the MDR xb90ex because I have tested the HBA- h1 but returned them like I think it was 2 or 3 days after because with the hbA h1 I found a lack of bass there not bad headphones. It all just depends on what style of music you listen too.

I'm gonna say shop around and get the t40's. I had ordered t20 but found t40 locally on clearance($60full set!!). I use mine in a very unconventional setup(12v to a power inverter, to MP3player to hidden in a work van). After 80hrs of break in these sound phenomenal. Clean, zero destortion(i did shut off EQ on mp3player) and can get very loud in my van. Even at $130 price i still reccomend t40 over t20, my other choice was a kmc 3 by Klipsch. Good thing i gave t40s a try before spending $300 on kmc3.

I have both, and prefer the m50's. I produce music so i needed something with a flatter response, so that is why the m50's are better to me. But the 700s are, I guess, a more fun headphone if you are a basshead who doesn't really need to mix or master. The comfort issue with the 700s can be rectified by purchasing a set of m50 pads. They feel about the same to me, but I use m50 pads for both of mine.

I'm a trombonist playing both classical and jazz music so I know exactly what you're keen to listening to. I've owned the M100 for sometime before returning it. I can safely say the M100 is much more geared towards DJ/Bass Head platforms. It's abysmal for Jazz and Classical listening. The bass is seriously distracting since it's more forward compared to the midranges, making midrange-centric music sound quite off. I would definitely recommend the ATHM50x over the V-Moda series in this regard.

They are in my opinion the exact same. I use the TSI 400's with a CS 10 center and a Polk 10" sub, and Polk in the back, and an Onkyo head unit. The TSI's have a great mid and highs and are said to have great bass(I keep my sub at tolerable levels). The bass coming from the TSI's and sub is incredible!! Movies or music, they rock!!The specs are basically the same but the TSI's are "newer" with piano finish and such. I am very happy with them!!!

I owned both. Bought the MB42X first, then returned them and got the Clubs. The MB42X sounded like something was missing in the mids. It sounded hollow. The Clubs have a fuller sound and I much prefer them to the MB42X !! Sound is a preference so to each their own. I tried adjusting bass and treble with both and the Clubs with no adjustment really sound the best. I'm not a big fan of the Lepai amp, it's only good for half volume so get the Topping amp even though it's more expensive.

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'm really happy with how the Crown drives my Ohm F's for home theatre. The Crown has lots of input choices, such as RCA jacks. I know what the distortion specs are on the Crown but I couldn't find distortion specs for the Behringer; I suggest you look into that. I know the Crown has been super-good for me, but I will make the disclaimer that you should do more research before buying.

the bass is amazing. it's fast, tight, and has tremendous range. here are the other open headphones I've listened to, in comparison: beyerdynamic dt880 32ohm - much lighter bass impact. the 880 is nowhere near the range and impact of the he400. it doesn't go as low, isn't as detailed, and isn't as impactful. sennheiser hd598 - the sennheiser has even less bass than the dt880 so the same comparison applies, but the gap between it and the he400 is even bigger. sennheiser hd600/650 - i'll lump these two together, though i'll focus more on the 650 which in my opinion has superior bass to the 600. the 650 can somewhat compete with the he400 in terms of impact. it's less controlled and detailed, but still has some decent weight. the he400 still has more detail and clarity in the bass, and probably more impact as well but it's closer than the other headphones. the bass of the 650 is very slow, so it can get muddy/boomy at times. that really doesn't happen with the he400. the planar driver is so fast even double bass drums on speed metal tracks are tight and well defined. you can hear each individual hit on the drum. the 650 is too slow so you lose that fine detail. all in all the he400 is a real star in the bass department. if you're coming off closed headphones they still might seem light at first, but once you acclimate to them you'll start to realize just how good that bass is. and if you're coming off other open headphones, you're likely going to be blown away, assuming you haven't heard audeze or other high end headphones. don't expect ear melting bass impact, it's not there. it's linear, tight, powerful, and natural sounding. by far the best bass of any headphone I've owned. hope that helps.

I would say exactly the same, since the Behringer one is nothing special anyways.

I'm at 2 years of use, still works like new. Behringer as a brand in general doesn't seem to be as reliable higher end brand. But these subs(B1500D-PRO and B1800D-PRO) and the tops that go with them (B212D and B215D)have PHENOMENAL reviews, way better than the newer Behringer speakers.

I personally use a behringer 4,000 it works great i recommend these speakers! I'm sure with any other amp they will work as great!

The AX3040 works great I also use the Behringer XENYX 1202 12 - input mixer it gives you more control over the voice quality.
