I see a lot of reviews that start as "I'm no audiophile, but..." I will put my experience with audio, and let you decide how much my review is worth. I have owned a full 5.1 surround set of polk audio powered by a yamaha surround. I have since downgraded to a bose cinemate (the one with the two little 'simulated' surround sound speakers and a sub) thanks to my fiance not liking bulky speakers. Honestly it has worked just fine for me, though I can tell a definite difference in surround quality vs 5.1. Headphone experienced is limited to a Playstation 3 headset, and a turtle beach before that ($90 one) My most recent headset was the Sony Pulse. I would use it mainly for gaming, but discovered I really liked to listen to music from youtube on it while working on my laptop. It was awesome, until it broke recently. So I began my quest... I haven't been doing as much gaming lately due to owning a business and working on my laptop writing articles and working on facebook advertising campaigns, so I wondered if I could get even better sound from a regular set of headphones. I researched for roughly a week and seemed stuck and overwhelmed. Initially, I was leaning toward wireless because I loved the freedom so much. Washing dishes, getting up to refill my water, taking a pee... it was all so easy with wireless. As I read, however, I heard about things like soundstage, muffled bass, veiled sound, dark, warm, neutral, etc. I knew there was more to the listening experience than I was ever aware of, and was really curious just how good music could sound... My budget was initially $200, as the most I've ever spent was roughly 120 on the Pulse. As I'm sure you have, I came across all the usual suspects... Sony MDR line, ATH-M50/50x, Sennheiser, Beyerdynamics... I read reviews, here and in audiophile land, like a monster. I became obsessed. I wanted that absolute best bang for my buck as I always do with important purchases. And sound quality had become very important the more I had read. I was dead set on the Sony x950bt (the one with extra bass boost button) because it was wireless and people said it was the best wireless sounding HP they have ever heard.. even people who owned infamous Sennheiser HD600 were saying that so I believed it. I read a 25 page thread on head-fi about them, following mods people were doing to them to get them to sound better. The price had been down to 99, and 149, but was currently 199, and I sure didn't want to have to mod it out at that price just to sound right! I would have felt cheated if I paid that much so I said "to hell with it" and started looking at higher quality wired ones. I didn't know anything about Ohms, or output or any of the other technical jargon people were talking about with amps, so my goal was to get a high quality headphone that didn't need an amp... was that even possible. According to one angel of a reviewer, it was. He had recommended to another poster similar to me that he should just get the Fidelio x2 and be done with it because it didn't need an amp. I popped that into my google search and it brought me here... The reviews for this thing, apart from a couple easily dismissed 3 star reviews, blew me away! This could be exactly what I was looking for. I will disclose that I bought it for a straight 300 shipped from amazon directly, and paid the $5 to overnight it. About an hour later, a client had a pair of ATH-M50x that he wears to work everyday. I tried it. It sounded great, but not very much better than my old pulse, and had a wire. It also didn't turn up nearly loud enough for me. I started getting worried that I didn't go high-end enough with the fidelios, as I had heard the two compared by another poster on a forum. They showed up to my work the next day, and luckily I was on break. Plugged them into the Samsung S5, and pulled up my favorite mix on Youtube for a test (Vol. 3 Epic Legendary Intense Massive Heroic Vengeful Dramatic Music Mix - 1 Hour Long) I put it to 7 min as that is a song that always gets my blood pumping, and began my initial test... First thought: OMG these are CLEAR! I could hear everything. I understood exactly what they meant by open soundstage. I wasn't immediately blown away because of one thing though... I felt there was a lack of bass, and I couldn't really feel the music as I had on the pulse. All the reviews talking about this having a lot of bass, I thought were slightly misleading for a noob like me. That's what I thought, but have since reversed my decision and will explain later. Comfort: Unbelievable. I have large ears and headphones become uncomfortable usually after an hour or two. Not these. I wore these for a six hour stretch while sitting in my recliner and working on my laptop, and not a single pressure point or sense of discomfort. The ear cups are the softest things I have ever felt; I believe they are some kind of velour over memory foam! As others have said, the universal strap, while it looks dorky as hell, is perfect and molds excellently to your head. I felt they were a bit clampy at first, but that went away in a matter of days with no outside influence other than my head. Side note: the Pulse, and any other headset I've had ritually left indentations in my scalp after a long wearing session. It became painful and so did my ears. Not even a trace of those problems with this X2. I can't even describe the comfort. Fatigue: I regularly had to take off my previous headsets due to fatigue. Not sure if that was due to them all being closed cans, or the small soundstage, but it was true. I didn't WANT to take these off at all! I even carried my laptop in to the bathroom with me because I didn't want to stop hearing my music!!! I was blown away by the comfort. Yesterday I was dying to put these on and go into the other room and work, but life happens, and I have a fiance that requires some talking too (boooooo lol) This morning the first thing I ran downstairs to do was put these on and write this review! I swear your ears feel naked without them! And your music turns into crack for your ears. Life just gets boring without these on... Back to the Bass issue... I was at best buy yesterday for an unrelated purchase, and couldn't help myself but to go demo the Sony Extra Bass wireless headset. The guy unhooked it so I could use my phone, and I put it to the exact point I did for my first test of the x2 so I could have some consistency in my test. I was blown away by how bad they sounded! I understood what people meant by a dark veil over some HPs... they had it bad. The clarity was nowhere even close. So the bass with the X2... I understand now what people mean by "there is bass where it was INTENDED to be." These definitely have the bass, and you can feel it, it just isn't OVERPOWERING like most less expensive HPs you might be used to. It's almost like the bass is in the background where it is supposed to be. Sometimes you can feel it even when you don't really hear it, because you are focused on the main sound of the song. I hope that helps somebody. Leakage: Leakage is bad at high levels. I had to turn it to about half volume for my fiance to watch TV in the same room comfortably. And the funny thing is, the music still sounded awesome at mid volume! Even now alone I'm at only 2/3s or 3/4ths because it is so adequate. You know all those other HPs how you have to turn it up to actually hear what's going on? Not these, they are so clear you can listen to them at low levels and still love your music! Isolation: They are open back so obviously not as good as closed. But to be honest, at mid volume I didn't have a problem with her TV watching. At 3/4 you can only hear the gunshots or hard bass of what somebody is watching. At full volume forget about it. Perfectly fine for me. Open back HP magic effect: I have read about the effect open ears do, that it seems like the music is being played in the room, not in your ears. This effect is very minimal to my ears. I can still tell I'm wearing headphones. I imagine you would have to either listen at low volumes, or really zone out and focus. Or maybe it is happening and that is why I feel so good wearing these things. I haven't had a nice set of closed backs so I can't really compare. But one thing is for sure... you can close your eyes and feel like you are at an orchestra or rock concert, so maybe that is the effect they are talking about. Build Quality: Top notch. Plenty of metal where it counts, plenty of cushion where it counts. One complaint is the wire is 9 feet. No problem when sitting in a chair or at a desk I assume, but getting up to move around is a PITA. I need suggestions on a 3 foot cord, so anybody who is reading this please put a comment on with a recommendation, I would really appreciate it. In conclusion I can say these were an awesome investment at 300. I haven't looked at options in the 400 range, so I cannot say whether or not it is better than other offerings in that range. I will say that the majority of people in the industry I have read are saying these are better than most offerings in a much higher price range. For what it is worth, I would have paid $400 for these after hearing them for a few hours. Hopefully my noob opinion will help one of you reading this!

The X2s are one of the best headphones I’ve heard and they have directly replaced my Sennheiser HD600s. My review will be drawing comparisons between these two, well known, headphones. I’ll start by saying that the best thing about the X2s is that they don’t need an amp (please note that I use new Apple products, which are known to have better than average DACs and amps). My HD600 were power hungry, which meant they were chained to my desktop environment. With the X2s, I’ve noticed myself taking them to a couch, bed, or any comfortable environment to enjoy my music. I’ve tried plugging the X2 into my Schiit stack and did not notice a difference between plugging them in directly into my retina MacBook Pro. The build of the X2 is far superior than the Sennheiser HD600. This isn’t to say the Senns are bad, just significantly different. The X2 feel like they’re worth $300 or more. Everything is solid or plush where it needs to be. They are heavier than the HD600 but considering this isn’t a portable headphone, this shouldn’t matter too much. I was “wowed” by the build quality. In terms of comfort, I found that the X2 are slightly less comfortable than the HD600. The clamping force feels stronger on the X2 and they are less adjustable due to the strap design. I can also feel the additional heft on my head. The ear cup size is large and fully surrounds my relatively large ears. The material on the ear cups is soft yet provides adequate support against the head. Overall, I can wear the X2 for hours without discomfort, although I think the HD600 is just more comfortable. Now, let’s gets to the elephant in the room, the sound quality. The HD600 are known to be the standard in neutrality and clarity. This still stands, although the X2 are arguably just as clear in a different, warmer way. From my direct comparisons, the X2 is a higher fidelity headphone because it is incredibly source sensitive. On blind FLAC vs MP3 tests, I score 100% with the X2, whereas with the HD600s, I would attain 50% or less correct on the same tests. I believe this is due to the massive soundstage on the X2 along with the clarity and instrument separation. When there is a large soundstage, FLAC audio files have noticeable better frequency response and dynamics compared to MP3. I was shocked to hear these differences because I was a huge proponent of 320kbps AAC being indistinguishable from lossless. The soundstage on the HD600 begins to sound like a closed-back headphone after listening to the X2. The soundstage and unique sound signature of the X2 is what won me over from the HD600. The mids and treble on the HD600 is better. They are more clear. In fact, when I first listened to the X2, I thought they sounded muddy and I put them back in the box. I then decided to give them another chance and listened to them for a whole 2 weeks through many genres. I found that the strong bass response on the X2 is what makes the mids and treble sound slightly less exciting; however, after 2 weeks, I was adjusted to where I nodded my head to the bass yet heard the same clarity from the mids and highs in the X2 as I did from the HD600. Although the HD600 is still the king in vocal clarity, the X2 is a more well-rounded, pleasurable headphone. Most surprisingly, I found myself enjoying classical music (one of my favorite genres) far more on the X2. I found that the increased bass in the X2 was enough to bring out the big drums, cellos, bass strings, tubas, etc., in a very pleasure, unobtrusive manner. I think that the HD600 aren’t very good with classical music because it isn’t an accurate representation of what I’d hear at a live or studio event (note that I didn’t say that it isn’t an accurate representation of the instruments’ sound). I noticed myself becoming far more emotionally involved in the Rach’s piano concertos, Mozart’s symphonies, Liszt’s piano pieces, Chopin’s impromptus, and all other wonderful works. Okay, sure the HD600 will give you the most accurate representation of each instruments’ or vocal sound but this doesn’t mean that the music will necessarily sound more pleasing. I’m not a music producer, therefore, neutrality isn’t key for me. Like I mentioned above, I found that HD600s do not reproduce orchestral or symphonic music well because the 600’s don’t have the soundstage you would hear in a large hall at a live performance. This makes the music seem artificial in a sense whereas the X2 knocks it out of the park. The only con about the X2 sound that I noticed was sibilance in certain vocal tracks. For instance, in most Queen tracks, I pick up a good amount of sibilance, which forces me to turn the volume down a bit. The vocals are crystal clear but I can’t rock out as much with a lower volume. Perhaps, I’ll adjust to this overtime but that’s why I have other sets of closed-back headphones when I desire a different sound. Overall, this is one of the best well-rounded, biggest soundstage, high fidelity headphones that money can buy. No brainer for ~$250.
