The Sony MDR10RDC, which I have, does not have a microphone. The MDR10RNC does have a microphone, which is android and iphone compatible. Otherwise they have the same noise canceling and sound capabilities. If you want to answer a phone call while you are listening to music then the 10RNC is the one to get. Since I have not used the 10RNC I can only rely on the specification, which says that you need to download the android Smartkey app to setup the microphone functionality. If you have an iPad, iPod or iPhone you would want to get the 10RNCIP, which also has an inline microphone. This is just my best opinion. I hope it helps.

The CX 680 is ur best bet with regards to durability and longevity. I even accidently washed and dried it with my clothes and still works like brand new even after almost 2 yrs later. The sound quality and base is fantastic.

Thanks for the info. The VSX-9040 is only $6 more. Let us know how you like it if you get it. I haven't decided yet.

I have 2 sets of MDREX10. The pair from Thailand sounds awesome (about 2 years old). Deep bass and clear treble. The last set I got 2 weeks ago were made in China and completely lack bass and sound "distant" as if the plug were not completely inserted. I attribute the difference to the location each were made since they are otherwise identical models. Not sure if this is common with others experience or even if helpful here, but thought to share it nonetheless.

Yes, I own both! For me, I ended up preferring the Q701 over the 598. The HD598 was more comfortable in longer sessions and didn't require any modification to the band (I had to tape a piece of foam to the Q701 because the bumps in the band put pressure on the top of my head). They're both kind of minimal in terms of accessories, but the Q701 comes with some very long wires (which you can braid if they're too long!). They both leak sound, with the Q701 leaking a bit more imo. But the Q701's soundstage is noticeably wider than the 598's. The sound is what made me prefer the Q701 though; it may be because the Q701 has more treble, but I find that the details in the music are clearer than on the 598, where it sounds a little muddied. But, in the case of the 598, this makes for easier listening over time. They're both not very heavy on the bass, but it's adequate for me. The HD598 has stronger bass overall (especially in the mid bass), but the Q701 reaches further down with more sub bass. I have a separate set of headphones for bassy stuff, so I preferred taking the extra detail on the Q701.

Yes. They are different. I purchased both to confirm this for myself. The Q701 is more musical, meaning a little more bass, a little less harshness to the highs. Get the Q701 for everyday use, and the K701 is your primary application is gaming.

Thanks for the reply. I'm not looking for studio quality, but just good enough to re-enjoy concerts. I've been using a Sony MD recorder, which is remarkable as long as I keep the volume under control. I'd also use it for acoustic group demo/critical listening, so it'll probably do OK for that. If all else fails in the concert area, I can keep using the minidiscs.Thanks again,Jim

I have the ATH-PRO700MK2's and the sound quality is amazing. great noise cancellation. great for pre-master mixing and imaging. i would recommend with 5 stars

I've worn both of these actually. And I've found the M50X's to be amazingly good for the price. They're extremely comfortable, and they're a good choice overall. Nonetheless, the P5's get the edge. The sound is neutral on both of them, but the P5's sound is a bit more nuanced, and true to the source material. (And if you're looking for something with thumping bass, neither of these are your friend - I'd look at beats for that). The P5's are also much more "luxurious". The padding, the presentation, and the details - everything is a step up, albeit at a heftier price tag. I would definitely recommend trying both out at a store if you can - it's a close one.

You have to weigh that against the Sony's excellent optics and continuous F2.8 minimum aperture. No 50x optical zoom is going to be worth much. I love the RX10.

Hi BelleBelleH can you please tell me what the Sony model/type you found that is similar to the JVC? Thank you.

Hifonics all the way. I have owned both. I hade the MRX-M110 on two JL audio w3 13.5s and then got the Hifonics when I got my 2 type r 12s. The hifonics + type r's blow my old setup out of the water. Hope this helps-Marcus

Yes it is a little better. however Behringer have a terrible build and there customer support is awful. Go for a Numark or better.. The BCD3000 will break your heart...

I bought the DS70P specified here for the $4.00 and have had pretty good luck with it. I record mostly live music and it could be better, so I am breaking down and buying the Zoom H4n to see how that works. I'll post with results.Here is live music with the DS70P and Zi8:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPxewHTtCA4Here is live music with Zi8 and H4n:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X54B-B58DRo

I'm using it with my Sony MDR-V6 and the sound is truly amazing. they can get quite loud, but these headphones are really easy to drive. I also have a couple of old and cheap speakers and it has enough volume to normal listening, only if you are in the same room or sitting in front of them. it doesn't have enough power to drive anything bigger.
