PX100 vs. "Super-Aural" PX 100W: Does "Super-Aural" mean anything different?

In this context, "supra-aural" means that the headphones lay _on_ your ear--as opposed to cupping around your ear or going in your ear (like earbuds). That makes them the same style as the PX100 model. The W likely means white. Best guess? They differ only by color. That said, the two product descriptions are not much help. One includes dimensions and one does not. One has audio specs and one does not. They weigh the same (one says 60 grams and one says 2.3 ounces--it's like someone intentionally tried to make a comparison as confusing as possible).

Its a MTX Thunder, 1000 watt max I believe. I like the smooth bass rather than trying to shake the ground.lol

I can't say how well the V Tone amplifies magnetic pickups, but it does very well for the (passive) piezos in my guitar. I've never used a pb100, but I see that it has two bands of eq. (bass and treble). The V Tone has a bass and treble eq., plus a sweepable mid band eq. That sweepable mid band is a feature that like, and find very useful. I also like the feature of V Tone's direct out, for patching into a mixer. Not knowing your specific situation, I would still gamble on the V tone. They're not all that expensive, and have more features than the Pb-100.

My impression is that ranges are handled equally. That said the output is exceptionally clear and the sounds are very distinct. Don't know if this helps.

I prefer the Onix sound, i.e. the more directional one, and of course, the Onix is Battery operated,which in my case is more interesting. Powerwise both are OK.

Yes, this has a fair amount of sound leakage. It has a way better sound signature than the PXC450 but if you need noise-isolation/cancellation and no leakage, than you should absolutely go with he PXC.

50 watts rms100 watts max, using the new pp4x or pp8x crossover might help with power handling and protecting the tweeter more.

I can't speak for sony but I imagine this has to do with measurement standards and practices, which have long been controversial. RMS ratings (look it up) are more accurate and reflective of true power output and are always lower than "total" watts, but the bigger numbers look better in advertising. Hope this helps. I agree with Wil about the sound quality and power...regardless of the numbers, this unit blasts and blasts well.

T70P. The P stands for portable. They have a 32 ohm impedance which means they can be driven buy most mp3 players without the need for an amplifier. I use mine with an iPhone and I have to say they are excellent headphones. Far superior to Dr Dre studio headphones

I have the upa-200 & I have 2 parasound HCA-800's in bridged mono-block mode! I do not think there is much difference between the sound; regular stereo or bridged, or for that matter between the parasound & the EMO.

There's more to good sound than wattage. The Sony may indeed sound better, but not because it has more watts.

The 100X is the silent series, but I really can't tell the difference in the sound level.

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

I have both. The 280s do sound a lot better and clearer. The 280s are big and aren't going to be good for exercise or active wear. The px-100s are great for the gym. I use the 280's at work, they sound better and block out a lot of noise. The px-100s are for working out. They are light, comfortable and sound great as well.

If you put 100w per speaker these will be super loud and super clear. That is if you are using a really good amp. These speakers like really clean power.

It does boost the signal (and has some tone adjustment that I like). We use it to preamp the transducer pickup attached to the sound board of an orchestral harp so it can be heard in an electric band. If we plug the transducer straight into the board we have to run the channel volume around 9 to keep up. With the AD121 we can run the board volume around 4 with MUCH better sound. The ground loop lift is a nice plus. I'm not familiar with the pb-100 so I can't compare the two. We do use a battery eliminator power supply so I don't know how long batteries last.

I would have to say that the AD121 does work as a preamp. I am sorry, I have never used the pb-100 by behringer so I can't offer any comparison. I use Martin OOCXAE, which has Fishman electronics. By itself, the Martin sounds good, with the AD121 I feel it sound is louder and I am able to tweek my sound and tailor it to my taste. I still can preserve the acoustic/electric sound with out it getting muddied up from too much processing.
