Thread claimed by Beyerdynamic

How do the K612 and K7XX compare?
The K7XX is $252+shipping but the K612 is only $155

So aside from amazon, where do people buy headphones from?

What is the second best headphone behind the HD600?

Reminder that there is zero reason to buy a DT990 when the far superior https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/electronic-2015-brand-3-5mm-Original-Genuine-TAKSTAR-HI2050-Hi-Fi-Stereo-Headphones-Music-Headset-studio/526268_32279127183.html exists for $41.

>>61514730

It seems really questionable to me for a $45 set of headphones to be even remotely comparable, let alone "far superior" to a $240 pair of headphones.

Also, see: >>61514801
They're really great for the price, whereas DT990 are bad headphones for any price. I wouldn't spend $10 on DT990.

People who think hd600 is good haven't owned other headphones :^)

I forget where I got these but they're great since you plug a male to male aux cable into them, instead of them having their own cable coming out, so they can pretty much last forever if you fix it when the bands snap or the headphone jack comes loose inside etc. Had to saw off some of the plastic for there to be room to plug in USB and had to find an old miniUSB cable but that worked for a while once before my new aux cables arrived. Probably going to use these for many more years. The model is Polaroid something

>>61515211

>>61514829
This paper is basically telling me the headphones don't matter, get whatever, use software equalization.

So the best headphones are basically just the comfiest and most sturdily built ones.

Nice. I used an ethernet cable for mine.

Crazy ex broke into my place and broke most of my shit. M50X, AD900X, PSB 300's, and Paradigm Titan V3's (inb4 lawsuit, already in progress). I liked the sound quality on the M50X and the AD900X, but I'm looking for some input on replacement(s). Money isn't necessarily an issue. I have a bit older Denon (DRA-375RD) stereo receiver that somehow survived her you-caught-me-cheating tantrum, and I'm at least used to the quality of sound from the aforementioned equipment, and was looking for some "dont buy 'x', advice. Apologies if the speaker part isn't relevant in an HPG thread, but I'm considering some Monitor Audio Bronze 2's for speakers. Any other input for that price range (~$550 USD) would be awesome.

Otherwise, I'm looking for some input for headphones around the level of the M50X and the AD900X. What's available in that price range for either or both designs? I prefer having at least one pair of open and closed headphones for different listening styles. I am not partial to Audio Technica, but I haven't found anything I like the fit/sig/price as much yet. Any recommendations? :)

>>61515461
For speakers, LSR305's are highly recommended by people here. For closed since you had M50X's before, Custom Studio.

DT880 is a pretty neat step up or K712.

That is their opinion. Preferences in headphones are an opinion too, if you don't like how the 770's sound, that's your opinion. Our friend here might not be sensitive to treble and therefore have a different opinion of them.

She broke my PC (Fractal Define R5/Mobo/GTX 980 Ti FTW/2x1TB SSD), 3 monitors (2 Dell 27" Ultrasharps, and an Asus PA279Q), Corsair K70 RGB, an OG Steelseries Sensei and a little trooper MX518 I've had for about 10 yrs, a custom desk I built and CNC'd myself...the list goes on for a while. That's just the stuff in the immediate vicinity of the audio stuff, the Paradigm's were out in the LR with the TV, a 65" Q7F. Shitty little wal-mart hammer right through the middle of it.

My trusty little Velodyne 12" Sub I bought from a pawn shop several years ago went unharmed. Just a rage trip, luckily overlooking random stuff. :(

>>61515582
I dunno, I've never been able to find a pair of open headphones that has as deep and fast bass accuracy as opens, but I've never found closed headphones with imaging and wide and open mids/highs. I love opens for reasons I'd never love closed for, but I like to have one of each if I can.

>>61515614
I'll look into both. Thank you! I think my local Guitar Center has both. I'm not very familiar with the Beyerdynamic's, but I've seen it talked about that the 80-ohm stuff should be avoided, in favor of the higher impedance stuff.

Whats the difference between the HD 598 and the HD 598 SR? The SR are like $150 off in Canuckistan, is there any appreciable difference?

>>61515761
120Hz LCDs do exit, Pavel.

>>61515818
SE and SR are black and have an extra shorter cable. They're otherwise identical to HD598, sound and build.
SR fits a mic.
CS are absolute garbage, closed, hold no relation to HD598, use HD380 drivers with considerable extra niggerbass. CS do sound bad, be careful to avoid them.

>>61515881
CS was a write off from the beginning, but considering the price difference I'll definitely go with the 598 SR.

That is if I can get over the fact that they were $60 cheaper a week ago on Prime day and I missed it...

>>61515928
Which amazon is it?
The next thing above 598 is 579. Above that, the 600 (HD599 is just an overpriced and, going by reviews, possibly worse HD579).

>>61516014
Canadian.

It's $125 off, putting it at $175 vs the 579 with no sale at $270

>>61515747
There's a Head-Fi thread on it with a couple comparisons to other headphones. The only disadvantage to it is the 2.5mm connector on it from what I can tell.

My favorite iteration of that idiom is "Can't draw blood from a stone"

>>61516682
They're excellent all around but their one weakness, emphasized and strong treble, can be a rather major one and turns a lot of people off.

If you can get over that aspect, or are able to EQ it down, I'd recommend them in a heartbeat. They have great soundstage, great transients, great detail, great instrument separation and even great bass. Comfortable too.

I've used my hd555 for the last six years and I've always loved them. How do they compare to other headphones in a similar price range?

>>61515818
SR has a different headband, and in-line microphone on the cable.

I'm not really enjoying mine nearly as much as I could, because of the lack of bass, and I know it's capable of more bass (I just press the cups harder against my head for a better seal). It just feels "empty", "unfulfilling", and "wrong", simply because of that. I'm actually enjoying my DT1350 way more, because it doesn't have that problem. I think if I attach an annulus of leathery material to the part of the velour pads that makes contact with the head it will do a lot of good.

Looking for closed back headphones mainly for my PC.
Should I go for the DT770 or get the hd598 cs?
The dt770 are more expensive by 50$ but are they worth it? I am already at the limit of my budget with the hd598 at 130$..

>>61516908
Sorry in advance for the wall of text.

As for detail, resolution and overall technical ability, they're more or less equal. Aside from that they're nearly opposites in every way. The T1 is treble-centric -- you hear more treble, and it's higher quality treble. As for the LCD-2, which is dark and bass-centric, again there is more bass; and it's also higher quality.

Using a simple example, I might use the T1s and notice that a song has really good sounding snares and cymbals. Using the LCD-2, I might think that same song has a really good bass line and not even notice the cymbals and snares. They definitely change the perspective of a song.

Aside from that, the LCD-2 also has a smaller soundstage and thicker, rounder sound. The T1 is more open sounding, has faster transients, and is sharper and more crisp. Like I said they're pretty much opposites and complement each other well. Same reason why people get an LCD-2 and an HD800.

HD600 is the target response. The closer, the better.

I know this is for headphones but I figured this would be the place where I could get an answer.

Bought a SMSL Sap-8 and I'm about to return it because the amazon link had a wrong name for it, it said "SMSL M6" so I bought it. Decided to give it a listen first and it powers my X2's really well (onboard audio was never as loud nor as spacious) but that's it. Is not like I will be bleeding my ears out every day because of the volume.

Today I bought a Creative ZX sound card which, according to its description, can run up yo 600 ohm headphones (I'd like to get some Beyer DT 770s and Senn HD 650 before the year ends).

So my question is (before I return the sap-8), is the ZX good vs a standalone Amp?

whats the best headset for around 100 dollars or less, or should i buy headphones and like a snowball or something

>>61519108
>or should i buy headphones and like a snowball or something
Smart. You already know what to do.
At that price territory, look into HD558, shp9500 and status cb-1.

What are good wireless headphones for running? The budget is about $100, but flexible. The headphones need to stick in the ear, and also shouldn't get worn out easily by sweat. Comfort of use is the primary concern.

I got a question, seems kind of dumb but..

Okay so I need earbuds like this
http://s.aliexpress.com/uQ3A3qey so I was wondering like the battery length is something like 5 hours with these, could I just use one for 5 hours or so and then switch to the other one for another 5 hours?

Holy shit. I never got it when people talked about piercing highs in headphones, but now that I have the Sennheiser 598SR I fucking get it.

Luckily, I'm not past the 14 days return window and can send them back without trouble.

The frequency response is a mess. It's based on the HD380 drivers, but the setting for this headphone makes bass absurdly high (niggerbass) and the rest of the spectrum is affected very negatively.
I've not tried them myself, but at the very least reviewers seem to agree with that. Both pros and random people in forums only talk badly about these. They have infamy.

My new Sennheiser HD280 PRO came in yesterday. Outside of the cord not being easily replacable, singlehandedly some of the best studio headphones Ive used. Thoughts/Am I just a newfag to these?

>Thoughts/Am I just a newfag to these?

Pretty much, they are most likely shit compared o actual good headphones. But if they're the best you have ever heard then you still win so who cares.

Who else disappointed with their DT990 pros here?

Very, very tiring headphones after a while, should have bought Sennheisers

Just found out HD6xx on massdrop. I finally think that I'm able to get some good headphones for cheap. But then, it doesn't ship to my country. Why is it hard to find any reasonably priced headphones in Malaysia. The hd650 normally cost 430 USD around here.

>>61522339
Use a mail forwarding service. It will cost you a bit extra, but most likely still cheaper than $430.

>>61515211

>>61522299
Have you *actually* used them before?

Sennheiser/$150 German Imported new model. Fully neutral with external EQ for customization (boosted mids, nigbass, etc)

Is this just normalfag tier or are you just being shit-tier

>>61522421
I haven't used them but I can tell that I have used many headphones that are better. I'm not saying they're shit. But I would put my life on the fact that they're not great.

>>61522550
>>61522421
Relative to many open headphones they're not so good but they're damn good closed headphones for the price, especially compared to the nigger base HD380 and m50.

That's a good decision, anon. You should get an HD579 (or an HD600 if you're willing to buy an amp).

>>61516868

There isn't. That's why the URL to the HF2010 still says Takstar HI2050 in it.

>>61522870

>>61517076
Definitely avoid the overly treble-heavy DT770. If you must go Beyerdynamic the Custom Studios are worth buying as they're essentially a DT770 without the superfluous treble, but Status CB-1 are a good, much cheaper option too.

>>61522870
I am never ever going to trust another thing I read here.

I went to Schiit Audio's Schiitr location yesterday, and I purchased a Magni 2/Modi 2 stack. However, I seemed to have bought the Multibit version of the Modi 2, and I was wondering /g/'s opinion on if I should I return it and get the Modi 2/Uber versions instead? I'm using this stack with a pair of HD598s, and I intend to upgrade to a pair of HD600s soon.

Thoughts/opinions?

>>61519108
SHP9500 + V-Moda BoomPro. Don't be that asshole in game who sounds distant and makes everyone else listen to his typing because he bought a desk mic that picks up typing vibrations through the desk.

>>61521367
It's thoroughly outclassed by the SHP9500s, which is the standard sub-$100 open buy now.

Is patience a virtue? The other option is an OP PM3 but I think I'd prefer a larger headphone one anyways. I assume the Shure have better isolation and are more comfortable.

The Shure is still technically be portable, right? I'm sure there's a more practical portable case out there.

>>61522325

not him but that ain't the point. Wireless = interference

like you know how even shitty speakers pick up weird noise when you're getting a call? Dunno how much you would have to spend to minimize that to negligible levels.

>>61524271
Bluetooth is digital, like USB. This minimizes the impact of interference. And you're crazy if you think your DAC/amp is immune to EMI interference (unless it's some shielded placebophile tier monstrosity).

From what I've read, try and find a pair of T51i.

I couldn't find any new for a reasonable price when I looked, but it's been a year and also I live in Canada so gl anon.

>>61521618
DT1350 have the split headband, so they're more comfortable and you can get a better seal. There is some sound difference as well, but you'll have to do your own research on that one.
Try to get the second gen DT 1350 that should have better pads and more cushioned headband.

Looking to get myself my first good quality pair of headphones or earbuds, I'll max out my price range at 400. My last pair was the Bose Soundsports, and I wasn't all too impressed. I just need headphones that are great for commutes and sitting back to listen for a few hours. Don't care if they're wired or wireless, and they don't necessarily have to be noise cancelling as long as they're fine to listen to on transit. I don't know if it matters, but I listen to a lot of music with either guitars or electronica in it. Anyone know of any good options?

http://north-america.beyerdynamic.com/press/press-releases/press-detail/article/dt-1350-dt-1350-cc-mobile-tesla-technology-for-studio-professionals.html
The DT 1350 Tesla headphones were introduced two years ago as the first professional Tesla headphones on the market, and have since garnered praise from numerous experts. beyerdynamic engineers have carefully optimized the design of the DT 1350 to offer even more practical advantages. In the new DT 1350, the proven durability of the housing with its 90° rotating ear shells has been enhanced with optimized components for demanding applications. Parts including the headband padding which are subject to high stress can now easily be replaced by the user to ensure uninterrupted use of the headphones. The DT 1350 was designed with a relatively high contact pressure to ensure optimum sound insulation even in loud environments. The ear cushions of the new DT 1350 have been expanded from 63 to 67 mm to better distribute the pressure of the supra-aural earphones and provide a more comfortable fit.
Softskin cushions are fitted as standard but these can be replaced with an optional artificial nubuck leather type, which provides added comfort and delivers slightly lower ambient noise isolation.
To ensure that the DT 1350 is securely connected to the source, this model features an elongated 1.5 m connection cable with extremely durable polyurethane sheathing to protect it from being crushed, e.g. if a case is accidentally closed on it during transport. The optional DT-Extension studio-quality 3 m extension cable with a combined 3.5/6.3 mm jack plug and the same heavy-duty polyurethane sheathing is also available. The extension with a 3.5 mm stereo jack socket is threaded for a completely secure connection to the cable or the plug of the headphones.

I have a 10 year old headset that I stole from my high school a long time ago. Probably cost 8 bucks. Its frequency response is surprisingly flat, but it sounds like shit because surprise, it has nearly 0 technical resolution.

Furthermore, HD800s may have slightly overtuned trebles, but the HD600s have both weak trebles and weak bass. You are a dumbo.

There is nothing special about the HD800 it's not worth the money over HD600

What affordable headphone is better?. I cant fucking wait for this.

>>61529180
More detail, better instrument separation, more/better sounding bass, instruments sound more realistic, etc.

The HD600 is a great headphone and I think it's the best recommendation at its price for anyone who isn't a metalhead/bass lover, but it sounds fuzzy and compressed compared to more expensive headphones.

Either way you should be happy that you like your HD600s so much. It's a blessing.

>>61529627
But I've owned the HD800. Kept the T1 because I got em for $400.

Have you listened to them? What's your issue with the T1?

>>61529606
I actually do advocate EQ'd $10 HJE120s for IEM use. They sound fantastic, are super comfortable and have very passable distortion measurements post-EQ.

>>61529675
I have listened to them. They sound metallic and, like most Beyers, have no fucking mids.

>>61529704
Sounds like you're just bad at using EQ.

>>61529657
>niggerbass
Not touching that, since that's beyond my comprehension.
>metalhead
Why? I'm a metalhead with HD600 and I love how it does metal. I've found coloring has this tendency to drag pitch in metal, probably because of the noise texture width of the frequency spectrum. It just sounds terrible in most headphones. HD600 makes it actually enjoyable.

>>61529737
Some people don't want to bother with EQ, and if you're just going to EQ then an HD800 is a much better choice than a T1. There's absolutely no reason to buy a T1. It's a bad sounding headphone with inferior soundstage/imaging and comfort to HD800.

I just pleasantly sleep to the wonderful sound of the airplane, if I'm lucky enough not to be too close to a damn kid.

Plz reply,

I tried them, rev 2, along with HD800 in one shop. Besides sound differences they also had different way of presenting soundstage. T1 had really pin point instrument separation and ok width, HD800 had just tiny bit worse separation but retarded width. Overall I liked HD800 stock more because even despite resonance, T1 peak was very fatiguing.

>>61530022
You're welcome to your opinion but it's contrary to the majority opinion that the HD800's imaging is unparalleled.

>>61529997
? You convinced me. Gonna donate all my headphones to Goodwill and EQ my new 50 cent earbuds so they sound the same as my T1s and LCD-2s. Technical ability doesn't exist.

>>61530098
Fucking hate being out of the loop.
I'll restate my questions:
- What is technical resolution?
- How do you measure technical resolution?
- What unit is is measured in?

Are the ATH-MSR7 a good upgrade from the ATH-M50?

All the research I have been doing leads me to believe so, plus with a small amp I think I could be satisfied. Maybe one day I will really splurge on a pair of 600 or 650 with a killer amp/dac but for now... Just asking for opinions.

Also how does that massdrop thing even work?

>>61529770
>>61530022
I've owned and used the T1s regularly for over 2 years, and I fully agree that they have horrendously treble spikes.

However, EQ them down and you find yourself with a very good headphone. I agree that it has superior instrument separation to the HD800s, and I also prefer its smaller but still huge soundstage compared to the HD800's retardedly large one.

Also the T1s have much better bass.

Is the SMSL SD793 going to handle the HD6xx?

I dunno, what measurements are humor, kindness, accents or comfort measured in?

Please stop shitposting.

>>61530170 >>61530132
Three questions was perhaps too much for /hpg/.
Let's keep it simple What The Fuck is technical resolution?

>>61529934
>>61529957
Properly EQ'd SE215s will have the same amount of isolation as QC35s, will sound great and will be comfortable:

Note the isolation measurements. Nearly identical.

God, does spending $400 on headphones just automatically turn people into insufferable cunts?

I have no stake in this shit right now, but damn.

>>61530198
>asks a retarded question
>types like a retard
So This Is The Average Objectivist Pseudo-Scientist.

>>61530198
A meaningless buzzword >>61529202 came up with which he apparently cannot objectively define using measurable metrics.

>>61530225
Oh thank you. I understand everything now.
So we're dealing with a made up word for something subjective which is probably just FR at work.
Figures.

>>61530198
>>61530225
A metallic whir at the frequency of 1.4k Hz is recorded.

A technically competent headphone is able to reproduce extremely tiny gaps of silence in between the sounds, transient volume changes, and the texture of the sound as it's heard in nature.

99 cent earbuds can easily mimic the volume (dB) and the frequency (Hz), but these clearly present auditory details will be lost.

These changes are less noticeable among headphones such as the HD600 and the HD800, but they can empirically be heard.

Seriously, please stop shitposting.

>>61530300
That's not objectively defined using measurable metrics.

do open IEMs exist? I want something that's both pocketable and doesn't make me deaf to the outside world.

>>61530318
Then why don't you use free airplane earbuds and EQ them?

>>61530300
>99 cent earbuds can easily mimic the volume (dB) and the frequency (Hz), but these clearly present auditory details will be lost.
I have to admit I'm a bit lost. How are these details encoded in a recording?

>>61530341
Fuck you

>>61530300
So which one of those means technical resolution?

Wait so for the massdrop HD6xx you buy them then wait until December to even get them shipped? I do not know how to feel about paying for a pair of headphones like 5 months in advance, But then again it is basically a pair of 650 for like $300 less hmm.

>>61530349
lol

Good luck with life dude. You're gonna need it.

>>61530344
>>61530359
How about you answer my question? Why don't you use gas station earbuds and EQ them?

>>61530300
How do you measure technical resolution? With what units? Is there a name for a technical resolution measurement?

>>61530415
Probably because they have like 0 technical resolution. But what is technical resolution? Teach me senpai, because looking the term up leaves me only with a job ad for IBM who look for a Technical Resolution Manager.

>>61530428
Why do you keep making the same posts to the same post? Mental illness?

>>61530443 new thread

>>61530415
I'm only one of these people you quote but
>why don't you EQ
Because effort. I like headphones that just sound good with no EQ. I like my HD600.
>why don't you earbud
Earbuds (or anything that touches the ears) are very itchy and uncomfortable to me, so that's a no-no.

>>61514693
There ever been a microphone general? Need a buy guide

>>61530440
It's at least two of us asking these questions at this point because it's fun making you look stupid since you clearly cannot answer the question, proving that "technical resolution" as you used it was a meaningless buzzword, demonstrating your lack of audio knowledge.

>>61530440
Yeah but what's technical resolution bro?

>>61530433
Nice response, guess you can't answer my question.

If there is no such thing as different levels of technical ability in gear, why don't you use gas station earbuds and EQ them?

Since you clearly can't answer this I'll leave you with the question until you can.

>>61530481
That doesn't answer my question.

So, I just ordered some HD650s. What DAC/AMP should I get? I don't know much about them. My price range is around $200.

>>61530499
You're not doing a good job making me "look stupid" if you're doing the exact same thing.

I run everyday and spend most of my time outside, rain or sun. While outside I always listen to podcasts or music on my Sony AS200s, but they are often drowned out by outside noise. What are the best IEMs for my situation (outside, rain, movement/sprinting)?

>>61530481
No, I'm completely on board with what >>61529202 (You, I assume) said. I don't listen to gas station earbuds because they have zero technical resolution, unlike my Beyers that have like 50 technical resolutions. I have no idea what that means, but I guess that makes two of us, right?

>>61530481
If there's no such thing as god, why don't you become one with your technical ability?

>>61530526
>unlike my Beyers that have like 50 technical resolutions
And like 0 mids.

Are there any cheap replacement earpads for the HD598?

>>61530559
I can EQ those, but I can't EQ the technical resolutions back in.

>>61530566
Genuine 598 pads. Chink shit will fuck the sound.

>>61530566
I would only use official pads. Anything different will change the sound.

>>61530566
Sennheiser's own pads aren't particularly expensive.
How long did your HD598's last?

>>61530585
>>61530589
Someone recommended HM5 but at the same price I might as well go with the official pads.
>>61530636
Like three years but I guess I'm a fucking animal so YMMV
I also managed to completely fuck the headband pad but I just wrapped it up and while it doesn't look pretty it works.

>>61530214
Anon you might be onto something. Thank you for your genuine suggestion.
>>61529957
Might also look into the etys, been meaning to anyway.

>>61530651
>3 years
Christ, Mine got three years of 6h+ daily use too, and they look and feel like new. As you're replacing them, it must be evident they need replacement. Maybe it's a skull shape and/or weather thing.

>>61530222
Buying 600s does

>>61530738
It's probably because I would slip them off instead of properly stretching them off my ear, and the constant abrasion tore the seam. As is they are mostly open and the foam inside is exposed.

Where the fuck do people actually buy headphones in this godforsaken country

Once my elears get here on Tuesday I'm going to EQ them and shit all over you beyer/senn cunts

>>61530794

Yeah, very clearly in need of a replacement. Ouch.
I don't do that, and I'll now consciously try hard to not start doing that.

Delete this and repost it in the new thread, we can have a good argument about it.
