whats better: MDR-V6s or ATH-M50s?

>>56065333
Discomfort and irritation after a short time--I don't like putting things into my ears. Custom IEMs may solve that but I don't feel like spending that much money on it as a test. Plus there is still the niggling problem of pressurization in the canal and small potential for infection.

>>56065228
I've tried many headphones and I'm not confused about the difference between muffling noise and actively canceling it. My opinion is unchanged about the effectiveness of active noise canceling and passive noise muffling. That said, I'm not a fan of the high pitched hiss I constantly hear with NC headphones. I also sometimes just feel more anxiety with it on for some reason, perhaps because all the environmental noise cues I expect are absent.

Siberia V2 - Pretty comfy but they sounded pretty bland.

If I don't happen to find anything better than the Sony headphones, I'll get them.

I have tried the Shure Olive tips and they were only slightly better. I don't know if I've tried the comply variety but from images they look similar to tips I've used but I don't know if they were the same type.

So far I have not had any sense of anxiety from IEMs, it seems unique to active noise canceling for me.

I've sold my odac and bought an e10k again. Maybe the odac is better for powering more demanding headphones but both amps sound exactly the same with my hd600 which is my endgame headphone. I'm a retard and you were right anon. I apologize.

Daily reminder of how to achieve maximum signal fidelity:
Set your DAC to its highest bit depth, set the sampling frequency to match the majority of your music (usually 44100), set the digital volume to 100% or slightly below, and only control volume from the amplifier. Always set your amplifier to the lowest gain necessary to achieve desired listening volume.

Remember to take care of your hearing, long term exposure to sound levels over 80 dB can cause permanent hearing loss.
>>
>>56066542
Stupid weaboo
>>
>>56066542
You can also just set your music player to use wasapi/asio and not have to fiddle with changing bit depth/sampling rate.
>>
>>56066607
That is ideal, but if you need to listen for anything else like messenger sounds or something, you won't hear them because of the exclusive audio modes

Appreciate it! I mostly listen to paid for spotify however I do listen to downloaded flac songs sometimes. Would I not be better off setting it to 48000 or 96000?

If not, why?
>>
>>56066768
it is tho
>>
>>56066797
I'm not well educated on this topic. I had just assumed HW eq would be better than doing it in AIMP. Also, it looks amazing and I will be more likely to tweak my shit constantly if I have it right there in front of me. I had dragging the fucking bars up and down with the mouse i always fuck up. Also I figured if I got a really powerful amp it'll give me more freedom EQ wise.

Like on my phone I'm really limited on how much I can EQ since the volume just gets too low
>>
>>56066823
In what way?

>sound quality
Like the difference between flac and mp3 320b, it's not noticeable by the average person, and even when it is it's not enough to be a bad experience.

>have to plug it in to charge
Have to plug headphones in to listen to them

>battery runs out fast
Modern Bluetooth headsets are capable of 40 hours continuous use and can be charged up in a couple of hours

Now let's considering a couple of pros of Bluetooth earphones.

Cable length
>at minimum, 10m range from your device

>can use waterproof earphones without worrying about your phone or mp3 device

Stop living in the past, 2012 was 4 years ago and the memes against wireless headphones have expired.
>>
>>56066845
I've only tried the apo EQ before and it's very fucking good. However I don't actually want to use one and I don't feel the need to with my current headphones.

That said I see where you're coming from. That does look like fun if it's sitting in front of you and you could casually slide the knobs up or down to suite your needs mid song to get a better feel. If it's terrible you could always send it back to amazon. It looks worth a punt to me.
>>
>>56066820
When you are not using WASAPI, the music that you are listening is resampled if the DAC sample rate is not the same as the audio file sample rate.
Some of these resampling are lossy, as they need to use interpolation techniques. I'm sorry if my post is vague, I'm writing from the phone.
>>
>>56067042
I don't know anything about WASAPI besides the fact that it's an audio option when I use my midi keyboard. Would the setting affect my keyboard?

Also for spotify and general flac use would you still recommend the 44100 over the 48000 and 96000 setting?
>>
>>56067199
Use the native sampling rate of whatever file you're playing. WASAPI/ASIO will ensure bit-perfect playback.
>>
>>56067271
Give it to me like a retard. Shoulg I be selecting 48000 for flac and less for spotify etc?

I can't be bothered to change the settings for different music players and formats.

Hardware EQ is quite a bit inferior to a software solution. It has limitations the better software stuff doesn't have and does nothing better than the software in the first place. If your operating system and sound setup allows you to, use something like EQ APO. Ditch any embedded equalizer in media players.
>>
>>56067546
A flac or a lossy file will both have whatever sampling rate it has. 95% of the time that's 44.1kHz. I don't remember if setting it higher in wondows just lets the file go through as its native sample rate or if it upsamples it to whatever you set. This is why I just use wasapi to forgo all that shit.

Akg K553 Pro headphones, are they worth it for $110?
I like a nice soundstage but just intend to plug them into my phone, not a DAC or Amp
>>
>>56067686
>soundstage
>real

>worth
Up to you. Ideally those are V-shaped headphones but since they seal so inconsistently on different people, you might find them anything from very thing/bright to bassy. I don't recommend them without having a listen before as you don't really know whether they'll fit on your head to create a proper seal.

Your phone is a DAC and an amplifier. Probably not a very powerful amplifier but certainly enough to drive a pair of K553s.

Fug gee, the standard cable that came with my HD600 set is starting to cut out on one ear cuff. After about three years of heavy use I suppose it was bound to happen.

>>
>>56066542
Set DAC output to 24/44.1, use SoX resampler in your media player to resample everything that isn't 44.1kHz to 44.1kHz so you can use DirectSound without resampling and not have to deal with the bullshit that comes with WASAPI.

Despite not having some external fancy audio module, the phone still does DA-conversion as well as signal amplification. It is a DAC and an amplifier on its own.
>Soundstage isnt real?
Soundstage is real but strictly speaking only with loudspeakers. Headphones create a stereo image different from it which is sometimes referred to as "headstage" to separate it from loudspeaker soundstage. In both cases it's mostly affected by the mastering and not that much about the headphones themselves. Frequency response does affect it but then again, you can alter the FR easily on your own.

>Any recommendations on a good cheap aftermarket cable?
China does some. Otherwise I think the official one is the cheapest. The rest of the ones I recall wax philosophical about the sound properties of the cable and cost about as much as the headphones themselves. If you go for the official cable, I'd recommend the HD 650 cable as it's built better and much nicer to bend. Should last a bit longer in use.

Oh this reminds me, to add to >>56067866

If your DAC has ASIO support/drivers or ASIO4ALL works for you, you can set the ASIO output like pic related, have the SoX resampler in your DSP to resample everything to 44.1kHz. This way all your other audio will still play fine in the same stream and won't be cut off like it would with WASAPI. If you aren't resampling then the DAC will change to whatever the sample rate is on the fly and the moment it changes to something that isn't 44.1kHz it will cut off all your other sources.

Fun fact: the benchmark DACs resample all incoming audio anyway, to work with the filters & whatnot that they use. Same thing with the DAC1 I have, only at a lower frequency.

Comfortable is pretty important

I prefer a darker, warm headphone. "Sparkly" treble tends to give me headaches, so "smooth" highs are really what I'm looking for. A little bit of a bass hump is fine, but I'm not looking for something muddy.

Are these headphones comfortable with glasses on as well? I see after watching a review that the default requires a 3.5 mm adapter that comes with it.

None other than the Stax SR-009, introduced mid-2011, flagship, full-size open electrostatic headphones.

Bass Texture - Other than being a little less hefty than I'd like (just a little), the extension was very, very good, and the texture was simply breathtaking. Felt like I heard the spit on the lips of the tuba player. Spectacularly clear.

Bass Slam - Holy moly! These hit amazingly hard. Yes, the lowest two octaves are a bit shelved down, but my goodness they rock!

Midrange - Hey! How did these people get into my house! The realism with the SR-009 is incredible! (Hang on a sec, I've got to write a sentence without and exclamation point.) The seamless coherence between mids and highs deliver a stunningly realistic presentation I've simply not heard a voice so convincingly real on headphones before. Stunning! Simply stunning!

Treble - Damn! I'm running out of superlatives. I'm super sensitive to trouble in the treble, and I'm floored by being able to hear a strong sense of speed and treble energy without it sounding strident in the least. The sense of coherent high frequency sound is extraordinary; everything is more than natural and organic, it's simply sounds like you're there. Wow again!

Dynamics - Come on! When are these cans going to show a weakness? On the other headphones the Flamenco guitar strums are punchy, but here it's as if you can hear each string of the strum individually hit, and then add their voices together with a musicality of impact I've heard on no other can.

Imaging - Finally! (Still using exclamation marks, though.) The 009 is bested handily with regard to imaging by the HD 800. However, these are no slouch, and great depth and width are realized; separation and depth are very good.

None other than the Focal Utopia/Elear, introduced 2016, flagship, full-size open dynamic headphones.

Bass Texture - the extension is superb and the texture was simply breathtaking. Felt like I heard the spit on the lips of the tuba player. Spectacularly clear.

Bass Slam - Holy moly! These hit amazingly hard. My goodness they rock!

Midrange - Hey! How did these people get into my house! The realism with the Focal Elear/Utopia is incredible! The seamless coherence between mids and highs deliver a stunningly realistic presentation I've simply not heard a voice so convincingly real on headphones before. Stunning! Simply stunning!

Treble - Damn! I'm running out of superlatives. I'm super sensitive to trouble in the treble, and I'm floored by being able to hear a strong sense of speed and treble energy without it sounding strident in the least. The sense of coherent high frequency sound is extraordinary; everything is more than natural and organic, it's simply sounds like you're there. Wow again!

Dynamics - Come on! When are these cans going to show a weakness? On the other headphones the Flamenco guitar strums are punchy, but here it's as if you can hear each string of the strum individually hit, and then add their voices together with a musicality of impact I've heard on no other can.

Imaging - The Elear/Utopia bested the HD 800. However, these are no slouch, and great depth and width are realized; separation and depth are very good. With the HD 800 within arms reach for comparison, I find these a spectacularly immersive listening experience.

>All these meme headphones like Elear, Utopia, HD800, SR009 and Ether

Still aren't as high fidelity as a lowly $300 poorfag HD600.

This hobby isn't going anywhere, it's been stuck at the same place since the early 90s.

These manufacturers are just setting a high price on their products to create a perception of higher quality. People who buy these garbage are literally getting meme'd and the funny thing is that people who usually buy them are poor. Headphone audiophiles aren't exactly rich, there's a minority that are but the majority are poorfags who can't own a decent speaker setup.

If you don't get that, E10s or Hifi re 400 are two good options. Or just get some chink shit Rock Zircons or KZ ATEs

Comfort level - As long as they can stay in my ears that's good enough.

Preferred tonal balance enjoy warm signatures but would prefer a neutral balance

Past headphones: Thinksound ms01 x2 both lasted around 6 months, enjoyed the signature greatly but seeking something that won't cost me so much money every year solely for replacements.

I did and I listened to the Utopia which is excellent and a far better value than the HE-1000, but that's in another price bracket from the Elear and Flows. The Elear sounds sloppy next to the Flows but that doesn't mean it's bad, just not well suited for certain types of music IMO.

>what is transient response

Colloquially, speed refers to transient response which itself most of time refers to the perceived delta of a high frequency response but it could be from any frequency technically.
