yes please let this sub go back to boring again with less than ten allowed posts per day.
It depends, for me giving up the soundstage from the 598 was a bit disappointing since I paid 350 euros for the HD650 at the time, I didn't expect that downgrade. On the other hand the resolution and definition in the sound is a definite step up. The HD650/HD6XX just sounds really tight, like you just came from the hairdresser lol. I'd say you'll probably enjoy them. Yeah you might need an amp, they're just demanding enough that your phone or computer might lack some volume with them. Depends a lot on how loud you listen as well.
Yep!! You can have HD600 HD650 HD6XX HD660S2 Hifiman Tsamdara and they will only notice TSAMDERE 😍
Well, let me put it this way I follow this sub daily for years and I have yet to see someone have build quality issues with their HD6xx. People talk hypothetically that the build is plastic and so must be weak, but reality tells a different story. I'm far from a Sennheiser fanboy but undeniably the 6x0 series are maybe the best built hifi headphones out there just judging by the amount of issues people report with them, especially taking into account how widely used they are.
That's terrible. First the colors of that add, orange with purple like wut. But then the way the text clips through the image of the black headphone. That's bad. Why is the O so ridiculously huge. And what does "more than just a present" even mean, you could say that about literally every single thing in the world.
You can get a HD650 or HD600 cable? I got the HD600 cable since I like it better.
If it works it works lol
IMO you should first get headphones you really like and only then worry about EQ and amp/dac. People should see that you are on a budget, in that case spending hundreds on source gear gets you very low return on investment. The headphones make up so much of the total sound and while some people can get really great results with EQ, for the average person it's a bit much to get that deep into it. Most of us are just looking to boost the treble or bass a bit, or use a harman curve preset maybe, which for all of that if you don't start with headphones you already like, will be an uphill battle.
If you like bass a lot you should look into something like Meze Neo maybe, they are quite bass heavy and easy to listen to. Pads get hot though. Fidelio X2 is also pretty banger, or DT990. If you don't like bass, look into Sennheisers first. Good luck, it really can be a rabbit hole.
Jawdropping bass
Senny HD560S and also the 58X jubilee, bought that one used.
