The ultimate memephones that trigger HD600 shills and AKG shills alike.

At least there's something they can agree on.

>>60615417

I do. I do plan on buying something AKG next. Probably k712.

>>60615348
My favorites (in no particular order):

ER4SR
HD600
HD800 (EQ'ed)
DT250

MDR-V6

SR850
QuadBeat 3

(Not sennheiser plz)
>>
>>60615664
Both are equally bad, it's just that the cool kids hang out on reddit. It's literally the same garbage misinformation being posted. I'll note that there are a few guys on reddit/head-fi(sound science board) who know their shit, but they're very rare, it's the same thing for /hpg/, from the 30 or so frequent shitposters that visit these threads and post daily, only 2 or 3 guys know their stuff.
>>
>>60615664
They're equally bad. A lot of head-fi people have been spilling over to Reddit since the redesign nobody liked.
You can easily spot them when they have retarded shit in their setup like le multibid dac from le shiit and defend the fact that good amps can change the sound quality.

B-but multibit DAC sounds better. I've read about it on head-fi (!). They're affordable, too, like that Schiit modibit thing.

And good amps can improve the sound quality, We all know class A sounds better.
>>
>>60615767
thx!
>>
>>60615767
Digital all the way to your brain. Just ensure you use good, oxygen-free cables.

Oxygen damages the sub-bit detail.
>>
Hey guys, who r/eddit here?
>>
>>60615823
Improve /= change
A good amp that sticks to the dictionary definition will only make it louder. Meme companies color the sound of their amps to sell shit to the exact same crowd that buys multibit dacs. Some guy on Reddit was trying to teach me about the "house sound" some brands have in their amps.

It is. And on Linux 4.12, oss is going away.
There's no hope for Linux. There'll never be a year of the leenoks desktop.
Some µkernel-based system such as Genode, Fuchsia or Minix3 will take over as general purpose OS.
A shitty monolith like Linux will never be able to offer reasonable response times. Not with the kernel being a huge clusterfuck with endlessly complex execution paths that, to make things harder, involve smp locking. Good luck providing deterministic behaviour.

why? it was the first decently animated performance and had two good singers instead of 8 average ones whose voices just turn into one big mess

Something tells me you need some HD600.
>two good singers vs 8 average ones.
Who's the remaining 1 that's apparently your favourite?
There aren't any bad voices in love live, but there's definitely three that stand out as better: umi, eli, rin.
>>
>>60618361
>Something tells me you need some HD600.
nah, just better music
>>
>>60618361
Quit shilling HD 600s. it isn't healthy to shill so much in a day.
>>
>>60618334
Shill posting happened with HD 600's and them having 'no bass'
>>
>>60618379
What?
>>
>>60618369
If you perceive choruses as "one big mess", your headphones might be doing that. HD600 has excellent midrange, so it's not exactly bad advice.
>>
>>60618408
face it, love live music is not only not good but it's also produced terribly.
>>
>>60618408
Stop it.
>>60618373
The music's produced like garbage
>>
>>60618390
Someone said HD 600's had 'no bass' as another anon stated HD 600's being very neutral. Shit hit the fan afterwards.
>>
>>60618455
Oh well. The last general didn't have as much posters either. 43 compared to ~100 the thread before, I think.

>>
>>60618736
they're the least sibilant compared to the whole line, and they're not that bad. Neutral is nice though so I'm over the sound but I used to dig the shit out of them.
>>
>>60618736
>Treble Vs No bass
Man, it sure is hard finding a truly balanced headphone in this current day in age.
>>
>>60618736
Here we go again.
>>
>>60618756
If I was blackmailed into buying a beyer, I'd go DT880 to minimize beyers remorse, since the 770 and 990 are V-shaped.
It might also prevent hearing damage due to excessive treble.
>>
>>60618782
What are you, a softy? Are your ears too pussy to handle all that treble? Sad!
>>
>>60618782
it's not that bad. they only expose poor recordings/songs. It can be equally as bad on my k701's listening to some dumb shit that is fairly loud.
>>
>>60618736
you can EQ away something that is there like the hiss in beyers.

you can't EQ something into existence out of thin air like bass in the HD600
>>
>>60618796
I treasure my ears.
>>
>>60618805
Lmao. Baby ears. What headphones do you own?
>>
>>60618826
HD600. They have reasonable treble rolloff, but I do keep the volume low with them regardless.
>>
>>60618852
I guess that goes hand-in-hand.
>>
>>60618782
>>60618852
>shitposting owns HD600s
no surprises there, do these headphones seriously give people such incredible buyer's remorse that they instantly become shitposters?
>>
>>60618852
>Doesn't like treble
>Buys HD 600s
Like clockwork
>>
>>60618890
>doesn't like treble.
Wrong premise, I do like treble, so dark isn't what I'm looking for on a headphone. I also like my hearing, and don't want to lose it, so I do absolutely not want "enhanced" treble.

>>
>>60618937
>o dark isn't what I'm looking for on a headphone
yet you buy the hd600
>>
>>60618852
lol. The treble isn't the only thing with a rolloff.
>>
>>60618947
HD600 isn't dark, anon. HD650 is.
>>
>>60618960
HD600 is rolled off, HD650 is just slightly more rolled off but also has more neutral upper midrange since the HD600 is too hot in that region.
>>
>>60618991

But the HD600 midrange is flatter :?
>>
>>60619037
that upper midrange hump is AKG tier, enjoy those metallic vocals.

i wouldn't expect you to know much, you do use the hd600 after all.

HD600 is the world's best headphones.

Stay mad.
>>
>>60619108
for the money. are you legit retarded saying hd600's sound better than audeze lcdx, any pair of electrostatic, hd800 SDR mod, ZMF eikon etc?

As expected from a shill. Nice try, though.

>any pair of electrostatic
Unironically claiming electrostatic means better.
>>
>>60619168
just about every electrostatic made is higher quality and sounds better than hd600, which is midrange. Noone's endgame is an HD600 I can guarantee you that much.
>>

What the fuck is happening from 5K to 15K?
>>
>>60619206
if you've heard any modern decent electrostatics you'd understand, but I guess you haven't. But hey when you've only heard HD600 and you have a multibit dac and read reddit I guess they're pretty endgame.

will an usb speaker/headphone work if the sound of my computer is shit?
>>
>>60619573
Yes, but USB speakers/headphones are generally shit.
You're better off getting some sort of usb amp/dac combo, such as the Schiit Fulla 2.
>>
>>60619644
Fiio E10Ks are also a decent option if you want to go cheaper.
>>
>Budget
Around 100$, but I could go over if it's really worth it.
>Location
USA
>Source
Probably a phone, but I need to find one with great audio quality and a lot of space.
>Type of earbud
I don't really know if this is relevant here
>Open or closed
Closed
>Comfort level
As comfy as they can be without sacrificing audio quality.
>Sound signature
Neutral
>Past earbuds
Skullcandy Jib, which worked great but they broke after a few years and they changed how they make them now. I've been stuck with their "Ink'd 2.0" for a while now, and they're okay but not great.
[spoiler]I'm still really new to /g/ so sorry if this post is weird[/spoiler]
>>
>>60619669
Yup, it is. Although the device is less flexible. Besides having less output power, it is a usb to headphone adaptor period. No aux inputs, outputs or anything like that.
>>
What are the best IEMs I can get for $100? Looking for V-shaped with decent soundstage.
>>
>>60619704
You get what you pay, I guess.

Haven't heard any STAX that can touch the HD600 for fidelity, it's the same for Audeze and HD800. I own HD800 too.

Quads confirms, HD600 are the world's best headphones.

Deal with it, lads.

other than, you know, the best headphone the sr009
>>
>>60620000
HD600 are low fidelity

I've heard the SR-009, HD600 is better.

HD600 has a more balanced FR.

Alright, /hpg/, are you currently satisfied with your headphones?

you haven't listened to the utopia, you've never owned a headphone aside from the hd600 and base all your opinions on frequency response graphs from people who don't know how to measure headphones
