Hey /hpg/ anons I've been shopping for headphones for a while now as I think I'm going to go balls deep audio-phool and spend GPU/monitor tier money on headphones.
Is this graph accurate? Can you help me understand what it says about each headphone in comparison to each other?
It seems like the he560 is the "best"? The lack of subbass on the shure and senn's are kind of off putting. The mids on all of them seem comparable and I don't know to interpert the highs, they're always so spikey on every headphone.
I'm also open to EQ, I will EQ no matter what headphone I buy so I guess that's a consideration.

Stax are better, zmf shit is better, hd800/s is better, high end hifimans are better, most lcd's are better.
>>
>>62250586
>>62250595
InnerFidelity's compensated graphs are garbage because their target curve is garbage. They don't represent what a headphone sounds like. HD600 is better than any of those. Most music doesn't have fundamental tones below 40 Hz, so response below 40 Hz is fairly inconsequential. HD600 doesn't have spiky highs; that's why it's great.

Alright, here's the deal: it's almost the end of 2017 and I've been using strictly only wireless Bluetooth headphones for the couple last years, simply out of principle and to gather all the needed first-hand experience on this entire "wired VS wireless" debacle. So, after using strictly only wireless headphones on a daily basis for almost two-and-a-half years, I can definitely without any doubt openly state that the "always wired only" and "only highly expensive portable players/no smartphone pleb-tier" pseudo-audiophilic FAGGOTS are completely and absolutely FULL OF SHIT. I won't argue with anyone here that wireless headphones in general and wireless sound technologies in overall were utter garbage just 5-or-so years ago, but nowadays it's NOWHERE even remotely close to being as bad as it was in 2012 and further down the line. Everything (literally EVERY THING) these so-called self-proclaimed pseudo-audiophilic kiddie shithead trolls are openly and absolutely brainlessly proclaiming loudly everywhere about MODERN wireless sound technologies being any "bad" or "not on par with wired" is 100% COMPLETE BULLSHIT. Abso-effing-lute LIE. These retarded deaf kiddies clearly never used any modern wireless headphones that cost more than 50$ (and actually good/worthwhile wireless headphones start from the 120$ mark AT THE VERY LEAST) and/or they never tried Apt-X LL or ESPECIALLY the GODLIKE LDAC. These FAGS basically don't know jack about any of this, but they act like they're the hottest and most knowledgeable shits around the block while in reality they're not hot, but just shit. MODERN wireless sound IS actually VERY good and does NOT lose to wired at all by the sheer quality of sound and latency (if it's apt-X LL or LDAC), WHILE being WAAAY more convenient and comfortable to use due to headphones being completely (WELL, DUH!) wireless. Fuck all those pseudo-audiophilic pseudo-elitistic sudo-entitled "pro-wired" scrubshits, I say. They know fucking NOTHING.

>What ~50$ range wireless headphones would /g/ recommend?
Unfortunately, there are almost no actually decent/good models in that price range. The closest one you can get to be of a "somewhat decent sound quality" is Rombica's "MySound BH-10 2C" model, but they have extremely crappy Bluetooth range and they usually tend to bug out and turn off even if slightest electromagnetic interference is nearby (like, for example, when you're in a convenience store and standing near a commercial fridge). Also note that they are literally "Chinkshit Wireless"-tier of headphones. If you never ever had a pair of wireless Bluetooth headphones before and you wish to get ACTUALLY worthwhile device from the first attempt - you'd have to spend AT LEAST 120$ and these will be MEElectronics' "Air-Fi Matrix 3" model and NO OTHER. This is the EXACT very point where actual wireless GOOD quality starts.

>Have they also opened it up for non-Sony headphones or do I need a Sony wireless?
That we don't know yet, as there are simply no massive amount of Android 8-based smartphones on the market so far, but I personally highly doubt that this will be Sony-only when it becomes mainstream, simply due to default LDAC implementation in all Android 8 devices making no logical sense in the case if Sony decides to not license this to other wireless headphone manufacturers. They've already licensed this to Android 8, so why the hell will they restrict it only to their wireless headphones now? That will be an asshole move and will undoubtedly garner a lot of critique on Sony's ass. I don't think that Sony's THAT stupid as to not provide other wireless headphone manufacturers with a LDAC license. And even if (and that's a very big IF) they actually in all seriousness restrict LDAC usage only to their wireless devices, this still at least leaves us an option to not use a Sony smartphone for it if we wouldn't want to, so there's at least that.

>Name one worthwhile wireless headphone that isn't shit-tier or overpriced for what it sounds
Plantronics BackBeat Pro 2 SE (monitor, closed, neutral, medium price)
MEElectronics AirFi Matrix 3 (monitor, half-open, neutral-to-bright, price-wise this very start of the actual good quality in wireless headphones so this is as low as you should go if you're planning on using LDAC/Apt-X LL)
Marshall Monitor Bluetooth (monitor, closed, V-shape, medium price)
Master & Dynamic MW60 (monitor, closed, V-shape, high price yet not ineptly overpriced)
Bang & Olufsen H9 (monitor, closed, neutral, mid-to-high price)
Sony MDR-1000X (monitor, closed, warm-to-neutral, mid-to-high price, best ANC)
Onkyo W800BT (IEM, closed, neutral, mid price)
JVC HA-S90BN (monitor, closed, V-shape, mid price)

All of these currently available headphones are absolutely worthwhile wireless solutions. The most expensive one in that list is Master & Dynamic MW60 and even it is not really overpriced (usually sells for 600$, but can be found for as cheap as ~420$ at some places during sale-off days).

P.S.
Answering the question that was made in the previous thread: "open" structure is not actually common in the wireless segment, at least when it comes down to monitor headphones, but if anything - you could always try MEElectronics' AirFi Matrix 3, they're partially open. Also please don't ever lump "closed" design and "bad" together all the time, because this is simply not true. All of the closed monitor headphones mentioned above are absolutely top-notch pieces of hardware and sound very good for their respective pricing segments (Master & Dynamic MW60 having the best materials and sounding phenomenally even in artificially created bad conditions, but it's sound curve, which is very clearly V-shaped, is definitely not necessarily for everyone. I personally prefer absolutely neutral sound, so my personal wireless headphones of choice for everyday usage are Plantronics BackBeat PRO 2 SE and Onkyo W800BT).

Yeah, I completely agree. All of these wirecucks truly make me laugh out loud with all of this "buy Sennheiser and Audio-Technica, GOYM!" carp of theirs. Hipster kiddies seriously stuck in an underground cave, lol. Meanwhile, the TRUE and ONLY gods of headphone sound in these modern times are those who use quality wireless headphones in a combination with LDAC or Apt-X LL.

I will only accept a wireless listening experience if the benefits outweigh the sound artifacting -- such as listening to music at work where I just want some background noise and I'm not trying to hear detail.

Bluetooth compression artifacting is still a problem, even with 4.1, and my music sounds tinnier when played through anything but a cable.

Naturally, but who's stupid enough (aside from Chinks and Niggers, of course) as to buy a pair of high quality wireless headphones, then a smartphone or player with LDAC/Apt-X LL, and then listen to friggin' mp3 instead of FLAC or Redbook? If anything, just a daily reminder to all here that LDAC goes all way up to 24 bit and 990kHz - this shit can pwn even some of the more expensive "audiophilic" and downright "ANALytic" offerings on the market IF you do everything right (read - "right" is quality wireless headphones with a quality smartphone/codec and FLAC/Redbook tracks only). Apt-X LL "might" be considered somewhat lossy, but it's latency is so goddamn low and it's still so much better than even the Apt-X HD, that it's almost never an issue. LDAC, on the other hand, is pretty much as close to the "raw wired with best cans" as you could've ever just dreamed it to be, "lossy" is essentially a nonexistent word for LDAC.

Bang & Olufsen H9. But that's sound-wise. Sennheiser is nowhere even remotely near to have such outstanding build quality as the one that B&O H9 has. So it's comparable by sound, but quality is way better.

>I will only accept a wireless listening experience if the benefits outweigh the sound artifacting -- such as listening to music at work where I just want some background noise and I'm not trying to hear detail.
There is no "artifacting" with LDAC at the very least. Can't say 100% sure for Apt-X LL, but that's a different kind of beast altogether. LDAC is for fidelity AND top-notch quality, Apt-X LL is for INSANELY low latency and very good (but not necessarily for "ANALytically"-good) quality.

Well it seems to differ then. But anyway, as in your own link suggest:
>The most common manga categories are
>Shōnen - boys, roughly 8-18
>Shoujo - girls, roughly 8-18
>Josei - younger women, roughly 18-40
>Seinen - younger men, roughly 18-40
>Shounen, shoujo, josei and seinen are also used to describe demographic groups
Which would work excellent to categorize anime too.
>>
>>62252198
and how would you go about categorizing anime without knowing its target demographic?

again, manga demographics are based on the magazine they're published in. that's why to love ru and aria are both shounen manga.

Every anime probably have a target demographic. I don't think the producers are spending tons of money just throwing out stuff that people might watch, they certainly have some group in mind when producing stuff.
Otherwise you could base it on themes they contain, how they present them, characters etc. Like how you could easily judge most movies for who you think they are aimed at, e.g:
>The Shawshank Redemption -> seinen
> American Pie -> shonen
Of corse there can be things that are harder to categorize and overlapping stuff, but as a general rule it could certainly be implemented.

Most normal people use streaming audio at least infrequently. Some streaming audio is at a high enough bitrate (192 kbps and up) to be transparent 99% of the time, and is thus adequate for nice wired headphones, but unacceptable for wireless headphones.

Digital surround is a meme. Causes heavy distortion. You'd be better off using Dolby Atmos as it's built into windows 10 and works with any headphone. The problem is that it sometimes has issues with specific games.

Yeah dolby atmos negatively effects the sound quality a lot to the point where you're better off not using it. Creative's been doing this for a really long time and is much better at helping with positional audio without ruining the sound. I would suggest giving it a shot, however to use it you need a soundblaster card and a DAC that has optical in.

Probably not, at 80 ohms. I'd buy them no amp and see if your volume is adequate or not before spending money on an amp.

First of all - Bang & Olufsen H9 are LITERALLY Sennheiser HD600 sound-wise, but of MUCH better materials and build quality.

Secondly
>comparing them to a decent wired set even at more than half the price they just aren't as good
You clearly didn't use them properly with the best setup, that's all. Unless you're Apt-X LL'ing or LDAC'ing FLACs/Redbooks with headphones capable of that - you'd obviously falsely think they might be "not as good as wired", but that will be a VERY big judgemental mistake. Only when ALL required factors for ideal play are combined together, then good quality wireless headphones fully show what they're capable of.

Hey guys,

I've got some Sennheiser 558s and the pads are getting a little bit old, i just noticed a rip on one today. How feasible is replacing them?

Fair enough, if the creative sound processing works well then I wouldn't see an issue. I'm pretty sure you could get a USB to optical converter cable, which may remedy the problem.

Not that it's entirely related but Dolby Atmos for speakers is absolutely not a meme. I heard a demo of 7.1 Dolby Atmos at the New York audio show and it was one of the most impressive demos at the show. Pin point sound effects, overhead images, perfect placement of everything across the entire room.

There's an H6 chart on Inner Fidelity, and H9 is roughly a 50% improvement off of that on all fields, so that's kind of it (if that helps you any).

P.S.
Whatever you do, guyse, do NOT read/believe that Verge pseudo-"review" article on these. Sound-wise that is absolute FUD and a complete BS all way through.

Does anyone a wesite where I can buy the plastic cans of he DT 880's or/and DT990's?

I have a pair of closed DT770's and won't to compare the open back of the other ones, but I'm not willing to put down the cash for a pair of new ones.

I've looked around myself, and Beyerdynamic only sleels them off their website in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. I've also managed to find several other spare parts for the 770/880/990 series, but still not the cans themselves.

You can't just pop the open backs of the 990 on the 770s and expect it to sound the same. The drivers are also tuned differently to accomedate the sound signature needed for open/closed back

They're pretty much the same, from what I've been able to find. The difference is mostly the foam and the cans.

As for "wireless JBL":
>These headphones' sound curvature is very noticeably V-shaped (low and high frequencies are overhanging the mediums, hence the "V" shaped signature on graphical charts). Some like it, but I personally prefer for my headphones to be rather neutral. It's not a more balanced out "U" form, too, but instead a downright aggressive "V" curvature (mid frequencies are way below lows and highs, sharply so, instead of being recessed smoothly). Such a sound type is usually preferred by people who listen to electronic music a lot, especially Progressive Trance and Drum & Bass genres, but it's not well suited for, in example, Deep House. It's also not good for playing video games in general and listening to video game soundtracks in particular, especially those which have orchestral score in them (VERY many game titles out there). And it's absolutely no good at all for classical instruments, like a saxophone (too sharp and bright, downright hurting) or an acoustic guitar (many details are lost, the sound is muddled up). I guess if you're an electronic music DJ and play a ton of Progressive/GOA Trance, or if you're a growling doom metal (akin to Mayhem) lover, then these might be good for you, but for a lot of different genres out there these are not good. "V"-shaped sound signature is usually a pretty niche kind of a taste, liked/appreciated by a few.
This is about the latest 750, BTW.
>>
>>62254136
>I wish I could have just one day
They're not THAT expensive, d00d. Anyone who has at least SOME job can afford them. Considering that at this current moment in time (while Kanoa still didn't release globally) there is pretty much no other actually great/worthwhile 100% wireless IEM out there, Onkyo simply has no competition and is the only wise choice. And it's not overpriced, too. After Kanoa comes out there will be inevitable competition, but right now there's simply none.
>>
>>62254236
That's not what I mean. I could buy them but then there are still 1000 IEMs that might sound better.
>>
>>62254253
Well, my point was that in that Onkyo W800BT are currently the best sounding wireless IEM around. And why the hell should you restrict yourself and become a wirecuckold in this modern day and age? Times have changed, goyz and grillz.

HD 280 Pro or the DT 770, what sound signature are you looking for?
>>
>>62254473
Read more thoroughly about the way it curves. It's pretty bad, because it's very sharp and not gradually receding. This might physically hurt, especially on tracks with a lot of cymbals and high pitched notes. They also produce mud and look like absolute ricer kiddie shit for "niggerbassers". AND they're overpriced as fuck for what they are. Sure, if you ARE a niggerbass "lover" that's half-deaf and LOVES dirt being shoved in his ears, go ahead.

If you want flat yes, but you might miss the bass of your old HP so you might like the HD650, you can EQ the HD600 to sound as the HD650 so look for the cheaper one

>>62254521
That's hilarious, considering all of this is pretty much reversed because Sennheiser is LITERAL "pesticide and chemicals-washed chinkshit".

Just mind, though, that BackBeat PRO 2 SE are pretty big in size. You sounded before like you don't like this, so if that's not your thing...I sincerely don't know how high quality wireless monitor/over-the-ear headphones can be with big enough (comfy, unobtrusive) cups AND not big themselves at the same time UNLESS you're going IEM. If you don't wish to wear big monitor headphones, then I'd suggest you look up Onkyo W800BT - these are only high quality wireless IEM currently available on the market, they have decent battery and very good sound WHILE not looking like nigger shit AND being priced at roughly ~200$ right now (so 100$ cheaper than what Plantronics BackBeat PRO 2 SE would cost you), the only possible "downside" being that they are, well, duh, not covering the ear from all sides (but they still work very well considering that they're IEM and not simple buds).

The HD600 are tuned a lot like the HD 598, the HD650 put the Bass forward the highs, so if you like your HD 598 for the tune then you are buying something different, that said, i have both the HD 598 and the HD600 and i can tell you, the HD 598 are already in the well inside the diminishing returns range, if you want more the HD600 give you more openness, better volumes without hurting your hears and are a lot easier to EQ.

I'm currently using an HD598, and I've just ordered a HD700 on Ebay. Even-though I've did research on the headset and decided take a shot on it. I'm quite worried with the fact that the headset had some bad press regarding to the treble. I always loved the sound signature of the HD598's. It's just I was looking for something more 'Clearer' or something. I just think I fucked up on ordering these HD700's, should I return them if they are that bad? And what else should I get instead?

Tyll often talks with Harman team and bunch of others headphone manufacturers as well while you shitpost on hpg, go figure out who has better expertise. HD 600 have NOBASS and their hump bleeds into mids, otherwise they are a great headphone with best mids and good highs, 3k peak needs to be 1db less tho for some, but they are not without flaws.
>>
>>62255286
I think pad mode is better since one guy on SBAF modded pads theorising that they cause reflections and measured it on innerfidelity with improved results. So if you will be using EQ it will be still non linearly amplified by shitty pads.
>>
>>62256323
if it was me, that is what I would do. People are such babies about modding (especially soldering) though so.
>>
>>62256215
>Tyll
Loves the HD600 and doesn't think they have nobass.

>The sound of the HD 600 is overall smooth and slightly warm sounding. Like most cans of its era, the sub-bass response is a bit weak and somewhat loose, yielding a mild mid-bass bloom to the sound. The transition from mid-bass to treble is very even and well balanced, though the top treble octave might be just a tad shy of neutral. I really think the "Sennheiser Veil" myth with these cans is mostly the result of being compared to the many overly-bright headphones in this category (Grado, Audio Technica, AKG).
