Wow just received a pair I remember v-moda first generation cans were TANKS heavy! So when I got this tiny box from outside my door I was thinking there has to be a mistake. They have considerably reduced the size and weight of these since then, very comfortable for long sessions and the sound is amazing. You can switch from different genres of music and these will produce crystal clear sound. Bass is subjective to the listener how much you prefer, but these produced more than enough for my taste especially when listening to HD recordings.
I've seen so many tech channels, they're heavily saturated but this? I love this type of tech content. Hope to see you blow up bro:)
Thank you dude, I really appreciate that!
Finally a good review of M-100 Masters, thanks a lot.
Glad it was helpful!
I've had the same pair of m100s for nearly 8 years now, still going strong! They arent the "master" idk what the difference is. Good buy!!
I explain the difference in the video 😉
@@jordanash no you dont
i had a pair of original m100 and i found them a bit too bassy. also one side stopped working after a short time and i hear these still have that issue. but vmoda warrantied them quickly. but while they were gone on warranty i bought a pair of sony mdr-100a which i liked a bit better
Just picked up a pair for myself!
Awesome, enjoy!
Great concise but quality review!
Much appreciated!
Got them and wearing them for some hours no music and made confortable. Got to keep hair sort of short though. 😅
Hope you enjoy them!
Vmoda is dope I've beat the shit out of em and they are still fine after 3 or so years
So you said they are neutral sounding and are more analytical than fun sounding? How’s the sub-bass? Has anyone graphed these yet? Thanks!
M100 master is more netral sounding if compare to m100 original and crossfade 2, but still have the bass signature on it which still fun sounding IMO
Between these headphones and seenheiser momentum 3 which you think is better? Thanks
I've not used the Momentum 3 I'm afraid
What are the best cords you could buy that would fit in the M-100s?
I use the V-MODA coily cable at work, it's really handy. But it depends on your use case. Is it for home listening, or on the go?
@@jordanash for all, on the go and for dj use. Looking for something thats really durable and looks good
I'd use the included cable for on the go, then the coil cable for DJ use.
Would you say these are a good choice for FPS gaming with light music?(hip hop, country, bluegrass, metal) I have a stand alone mic and looking to get a pair of really good quality closed back headphones for gaming. I'm not an audiophile but I can appreciate the better quality. I had an original pair of crossfade LPs back in like 2011 and I loved them for music. I was looking at m200s but I can get these with a fiio e10k for about the same price. What would your recommendation be, even if it's another brand
These are more naturally EQ'ed than the others. I'd suggest a pair of regular M-100's. They have more bass and general sound signature.
Thanks for the great review. Have you listened to Audio Technica M50x before? Could you compare them, as thats my reference for closed backs. Also how is the ambient noise isolation on these?
You're welcome! I have the Bluetooth version in the office actually. I'll use them wired and get back to you on this!
@@jordanash Ah, that would be great. I believe the BT version is sliglty tamer in the highs and a bit more forward with mids but that would still give me a good idea of what to expect. Looking forward to it :)
@@emirdg1901 for your refrence i have m50 the old one not the x version, and i can give you that m50 ath is more flat balance, when m100 master have bass signature. Both is very good headphone. I think m100 master have more fun factor in sound signature, it get more louder sound without distortion that ath. IMO
Im searching for a flexible headphone for using at home. I have other Headphones for mobile use and for audiophile use, so this headphone should be an Allrounder for gaming, Film and music (Most Electronic music, so should make fun and have a good bass, not too neutral).
Which one would fit the best?
Meze 99 Classic
V-Moda Crossfade M100 Master
Master Dynamic MH40
Either the Meze, or personally I'd go for the regular V-MODA M-100, over the master for general listening.
would you recomend these headphones over the pioneer hdj-x10?
Are you actually intending to Dj with them? Because if not I'd say get the V-MODA's
Do they fit completely over the ears like Beyerdynamic's do? Or, is the fit more like the MDR07506?, like 1/2 on and 1/2 off. ? Also, I just got Beyerdynmamic DT 990 Pro Limited with a KnoxGear amp. They sound great compared to my old MDR set, but had to detune the bass with my EQ; otherwise, I couldn't get them loud without distortion.
Would you say that these have better sound/bass/detail than the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro?
Fully over the ear yeah. No idea mate, I've not used those. Try asking on a audiophile forum.
@@jordanash ty
I have the first crossfade should I get the m100 master or crossfade 2 , I prefer bass over all
I'd say crossfade 2
@@jordanash i have same issue !!
But i need more flatness
I am DJ/producer
And it's comparison between m100 master and Crossfade 2 codex edition
Is the foam pad bigger than m-100 series? Do you suggest I need XL pad for this? I'm a heavy user when listening to music lol
As far as I know they're the same ones. If you're wearing them for more than a couple of hours without a break, then yeah maybe it's a good idea
@@jordanash ohhh, gotcha... well I just ordered it online...will try to feel them out, since I already have XL pad on one of my M-100 & should be identical between from them
Quick Question, my V-moda m-100 crossfade died on me (right cup stopped working) so I am looking for another headset, I am leaning to the master. Do you suggest a DAC for it?
I use m100 master, basically you do not need dac or headamp, but dac will help clear out the sound, and using headamp is give more oomph to this beast. I use dragon fly black 1.5 it really give more power for sure. So either is you using headamp dac or not depend on your regular use. And yes little bit hassle to use headamp everytime you want to use but its nice to have to listen for long time use like music, movie even gaming. So m100 master best for just plug and play even more power and cleaner with headamp dac
@@rolly084 Thanks for the response. I mainly use the boommic pro on my pc, so i must use one where i can split mic/audio (so not the dragon fly i guess). Then again my motherboard is supported up to 600 Ohms with a good chip, apparently. So I would need to actually try the dac/amp and just return it if it does not make that much of a difference. I have no clue which one though, heard that the gsx300 from sennheiser (or epos actually) ,was ok.
@@theallgamesfan yes, i use boom mic pro too, its really great mic, and if you use onboard with built in amp, i have a tips maybe you already know but here it goes, first unplug the cable that attach into your headphone and then plug into pc then plug into the headphone. This way to force to amp detect you are using higher amps, and allow for more power. 😁 It force to amp to give more power, and result its more oomph for your vmoda.
Oh ya this trick is applied on every headphone that can cable can be unplug on the headphone unit
@@rolly084 That doesn't make any sense and unplugging the cable shouldn't make any difference. Motherboards without built in audio software give the same power output for anything thats plugged into them, but modern ones come with software that sometimes let you play around with audio output.
@@theallgamesfan The Schiit Hel might be a good one if you need to split mic and headphone. Also may i ask what motherboard you use? Because with most modern ones the audio output is clean enough as it is, and if your motherboard can drive your headphones loud enough an amp shouldn't make too much of a difference.
What might make a difference are some devices that clean up usb audio before feeding them into a dac (ifi usb purifier), but if you buy one of those you are going to need a seperate dac & amp or dac/amp combo to use it with, which may end up costing you a lot of money.
If you got the money for it thats your best bet for a cleaner audio signal.
Do you recommend these headphones for 80s EDM music?
Definitely, just remember they're more neutral though, so not as bass heavy as the original M-100's, for example.
@@jordanash ok thx:) that's good to know! I really like heavy bass so maybe these are not for me?
Do recommend any other headphones within the same price range which is more bass heavy?
I would go for a pair of regular M-100's :)
@@jordanash I'm thinking of getting the m100s or the dt990!
Which one is better?
I've not used the DT900's, but I've heard they're good. Either would be good really
if i buy it and put it on normal motherboard will it work well
?
It will be good yeah, just a sound card would take it to the next level
@@jordanash tnx dude and sry my eng is bad :DDD
You're welcome. It's good!
What about metal music and gaming with these ??
Yeah they work well. I use them for Metallica and play hell let loose a lot with them too
@@jordanash thanks for the reply
You're welcome
I just got the original m-100 for this reason... I listen to a lot of styles of hard rock and metal (Black Sabbath, Metallica, AC DC, Rush, Soundgarden, Dream Theater, Tool, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Judas Priest.. etc) and they are pretty damn good. I thought the bass was slightly too high on some songs (eg. Forty Six & 2 by Tool) so I used an equalizer to lower it just a tad notch. I really like the bass for gaming though!
What was the name of that song from deadmau5 that you use to test the bass? I couldn’t quite catch it
The Veldt
These are the worst headphones, don't waste your money. They sound good but the blue tooth is super weak and the battery needs to be plugged in most of the time. Did i mention how uncomfortable they are.
These don't have Bluetooth... You've got your models mixed up mate
@@jordanashahah😂
