I recently got one for recording guitar and it's nice and noise-free and low latency. I dig it. Just be aware that its headphone output is very high output impedance; this isn't a problem for me since I plug my powered speakers into it. Anyways, Equalizer APO installs to it flawlessly and it measures well: https://nwavguy.blogspot.com/2011/02/behringer-uca202-review.html
Great little cheap device.

>>61957679
well I mean to plug it into pc and listen to music 6 days a week, on the seventh I often do a live radio show and so far I made it with just software solutions but I think, as well as my listeners, that my mic could use some more sound
would it be suitable for that purpose, not recording as much as live broadcasting?

I'd also snag a Fulla2, I doubt you can find fiber at that price range.

I can't guarantee it'll provide your mic any more volume than your onboard sound does. A USB mic might be a better solution, like a Blue Snowball iCE.

>WARNING, HIGHLY AUTISTIC QUESTION BELOW

I'm testing my new FiiO E10K dac with my old dt770's and noticed some crackling in
certain songs. I'm not sure if it's something on my end or part of the recordings.
Some songs sound perfectly clear and crisp at even the highest volume while on low
gain, but some other "crakle" at high volume. It's barely noticeable even then.

Does anyone hear a crakle at the 1:58 to 1:60 mark of this video? I hear it in all my
sources for this soundtrack, and all of them on the left speaker of my headphone.

Why do you like it? It has tons of sound leakage, and makes my ears warm and uncomfortable. Maybe I'll try them again when it's winter.

Because they are comfy. No need to care about sound leakage when you're using open headphones anyway. Do you live with someone else, anon?

>>61959494
>It has tons of sound leakage
That is only bad if said headphone is not supposed to have said leackage, AD700/900 etc stock pads leak like hell because they are supposed to sound "airy", if you put something that stops the leak they actually get bassy as fuck.

>>61959514

That makes no sense, if it's already quiet than why do you need something that doesn't leak, are you trying to avoid disturbing the quietness when you are not enjoing it? Is it so quiet you can hear the quiet being quiet so you need isolation to keep the quiet out?

Fun fact, there is not real silence, if you are there to hear it than the silence is gone.

Get the uber if you need to drive speakers that use the RCA outputs. Otherwise, save 50 and just get the magni 2. The added power output is not necessary and not a reason by itself to get the uber.

Something relatively balanced and clean since I listen to lots of genres, but still involved and exciting. Considered HE400i, but it leaks too much. Considered HD600/650, but I'm afraid they are too relaxed and veiled. DT880 and AKG K712 are top my list

Is there a full-sized headphone currently in production which measures better than this?

>>61960292
No.

>>61960272
K712 is far preferable to DT880.

>>61960272
If you liked the AKG K240's sound signature more than the HD 558, then you'd like the DT 880 and K712 too. Either one is fine

>>61960287
>Why even consider open headphones then?
I've heard the HE400i leaks way more than the other headphones I listed to the point where it sound like computer speakers. I'd rather not have that. I don't mind sound leak, but not that much since I don't live alone

>>61960272
HD600s are not veiled, it's just a meme pushed by a couple of shit posters around here. It's got nice balanced treble and detail for most, but the HD650 exists if you're sensitive to treble.

>>61960385
The HD 600s aren't veiled, but the HD 650s definitely are depending on who listens to them

what's a headphone with the detail of hd650s but more subbass?

>>61960272
DT 880. The AKG's are comfy, but build is a bit iffy

It's sociopathic to recommend products from a company without first informing them of the risks. Reviewers are generally in agreement that the HD600 have about the right amount of trouble.

>>61960272
The Sennheisers are going to sound veiled if you're used to a bright sound signature, which I would recommend the DT 880 or Q701 if you can handle those damn headband bumps

Tested HD600 multiple times, didn't sound veiled to me, still, i preffer the bass on the DT880.

is it possible to get a sound signature similar to AKG K242HDs in a closed headphone? a bit of extra bass is fine given the limitations, explicitly after closed for public transport use

ISK HD9999s arrived today after looking at /csg/ and reviews, tried both pads but the mids sound too aggressive

K712 is more balanced sounding than DT880, which is bright sounding. Both headphones have peaky treble; the K712 needs the extra bass to balance out the peaky treble.

Any opinions on the current MassDrop for a HiFi Man HE4XX? It's $160USD + shipping

I've been lusting for a set of Final Audio Pandora Hope/Sonorous VI's for nearly two years now but the MassDrop seems like a pretty good price. Allegedly the 4XX is comparable to the 400i if that helps.

I'm currently rocking a set of Ultrasone HFI-780's and I enjoy the crisp/detailed high end with a fairly tight bottom (although I think they've loosened up a fair bit with use over the years in regards to the tight thump of the bass).

I'm not totally sold on the open back design of the HE4xx, if the sound is much better I might still go for them however.
When I'm not using my phone I drive with a Schitt Vali V1 or my Sony F240 speaker amp.

400 and 400i are very different headphones. You're no better than the sennheiser shills, shilling headphones that you don't own. I've heard them. I own them.

I'm not sensitive to treble. They vaguely as trebly as the DT-880 with much more clarity. I'm just describing the sound signature.

Strawman. You'll see on most graphs that they have a peak at 8K, and this is reflected in CSD graphs as well.

How is this specific to HD600?
As far as I can tell, it's just the headphone they used for the test.

I've been using CAL! for 4+ years, I like them, but they start to show their age. I can replace them for 70$ or so, should I do that or is there something better in <200$ range?

It starts with H and ends with D600.

You could consider the beyer custom one/custom studios if you want a closed headphone. If you don't require a closed headphone, the dt880 are generally considered as better.

Then please demonstrate their build with your own, dear anon. Or do you not own a pair?

rtings is only a problem when it comes to their graphs. Of course, maybe you can prove me wrong if you actually own a pair

Nigga, the DT 880s aren't any better for his situation. Now stop sperging out like an autist and realize you don't actually own the headphones to prove anyone wrong with their snappable build quality

Heh. You aren't even able to afford the cheaper DT 880s, much less the HD 600s you're shilling for constantly
