Nigga you already got a ton of recommendations, look those up first.
>>52420205
Sony MDR-V6 or MDR-7506.
Whichever is cheaper as they're the same thing.
>>52420176

>>52420221
>>52420205
I agree with you on the 7506, they are nice.

>>52420401
this field isnt about opinions. well, some would say it is, but you got the best recommendations by measurements. i wasnt even the people that recommended them but i would say the same thing
Are they gud? Will they ever have a price drop?
>>52420205
MDR-7056
>>52420369
Good value. HD 681 would be my pick over them though.
>>52420430
They are OK if they seal well.
>>52420430
I dunno, I haven't tried Asian prostitutes.
>>52420456
What is considered better for the same money or less? I am leaning towards having closed headphones for outdoors use.
>>52420482
they say the 681 are very closed, in spite that theyre marketed as semi-open.
>>52420482
I assume you were >>52420430 so Oppo PM-3

They're alright by the way, a little too big for IEM's, and the sound is not exactly spectacular, but for the price I think that's okay.
>>52420580

Are you implying my setup isn't one giant mistake?

Dunno, I'm not a fan of the beyers. You can easily answer your own question though, do you enjoy listening to your setup, or not?
>>52420769
Nwavguy liked it.
>>52420785
Of course I do, but with the money I spent I could have got much better equipment.

>>52420796
Added a seperate DC Power Jack on the back to make it capable of running off battery power, since the original design takes a AC-AC power supply only.
>>52420805
i take it your normal setup are lcd-2's or something similar

No, all the different versions have the same amount of bass, the higher ohm ones just have smoother response in the bass region, 32 ohm are all fucked.

Anyone know an in-ear headphone with relatively neutral high frequency response?
Or alternatively one with a known frequency diagram
I need them for some tinnitus treatment so sound quality doesn't matter
>>52421142
Well it doesnt need to, as the whole 220-1200 Range is dragged down -3dB, you can get away with pushing 1800-3500 as a whole to -4dB, perhaps 77-156 to -1dB.
>>52420773
>>52420541
I used to play around with portable setups like that also, but nowadays just use the phone and ANC headphones while commuting. Much more convenient, plus the practical increase in sound quality from ANC outweighs better headphones & amps and such in those environments.

Short review of Monoprice's 6ft premium 3.5mm designed for mobile extension cable.
Equipment used: DT770 250ohm, Corda Headfive amp
Construction:
-cable is flexible and as thick as you would want outside of a permanent installation
-nicely chromed, gold plated connectors provide a secure fit at both ends
Sound quality:
-slight veil is introduced due to the extra distance the signal is required to travel, but you have to listen for it
-the crystal clear mids of the DT770 were unaffected while the highs were a touch more sibalent than expected
-lows were rounded at the extremes, but this tended to result in a more natural sound that was less fatiguing
Overall:
I will have to finish the full 100 hour burn in time, but this cable lived up to my every expectation. If you're pressed for distance and have to sacrifice sound quality by adding extra cabling, you won't be disappointed.
Follow up:
I typed the other post previously and didn't want to edit my original thoughts, but most of the sound issues I had were mitigated by using temporary cable risers. Wood is not the ideal, but these will suffice until their carbon replacements arrive.
>>52421315

Looking for some nice IEM's <$200 with mostly neutral sound sig, very clear bass and wide soundstage.
What is a good way too tell people that beats are shit.
So I'm in on of my classes and this group of chads next to me are looking at the wireless gold one and I decided to tell them about their real quality. They where like saying that I was wrong and somewhere during me replying back I sort of locked up and stopped talking.
So what would you say to them so they would know that beats are not that great of cans?
>>52421859
well first you find out which pair of beats they are. then you look up measurements for them, and show them to them. when they dont know what theyre looking at, tell them this is why they think the beats are good. then you will get called a nerd, because they will be mad
>>52421859
The Solo2 are apparently okay from Beats, though probably not much else.
Otherwise, they're chads, why would you even care if they like bad headphones or try to convince them? It's a futile effort that just makes you look autistic.

Yes, it's a drawing of a child.

>>52422183
You don't deserve anything, the concept of deserving something is completely irrelevant.
>>52422224
you said im supposed to reconsider being alive. if that doesnt mean that you have judged me as not being alive, or in other words being dead, then i have misunderstood and you need to explain in a different way
>>52422243
You have no reason to be alive, why are you alive?
Honest question.
So, headphones.
>>52422262
probably the same reason youre alive
>>52422298
I have no reason to be alive.
The only reason I'm alive really is because I fear death, which is natural.
So why are you alive?
Anybody else out there use tube amps for their headphones?
I can't go back to anything else anymore
>>52422321
why do you presume im an exception to this same natural feeling you have? and no, you answered why youre -still- alive. the reason you live in the first place, is other humans. you should probably take a philo class or 2 mate

Thanks, they both seem suitable
But I noticed I also need them to be non-insulating so I can wear them all day
>>52422433
The QuadBeat 3 then. The HF5 insulates completely.
>>52422431
Why wouldn't you just get warm-sounding headphones in the first place?
Vampire butt
>>52422473
I probably should eventually but the ones i have right now are perfect for recording. The tubes i have right now came at the cost of nothing

I play the saxophone and sometimes practice along with music. Maybe having open ears would help a lot?

>Preferred tonal balance - clear, probably clean bass that doesn't cover up anything else.
>Preferred music - lots of jazz, R&B, hip hop and rock. Lots of acoustic sounds Not nearly as much electronic.
>Past headphones - Sennheiser HD 280 pro 64 Ω
I love these headphones, but the left/right balance has become pretty fucked up recently and they are falling apart slightly. Maybe I should just go for the next step up from these? I loved the clarity of the 280s.
>>52422700
not the guy you quoted but there is a thing called eq and its not a meme to use it.
>>52422694
thanks. apparently im supposed to kill myself because shes underage or some shit, lmao
>>52422718
HD280 Pro has strong isolation, are you sure you want open?
I'd recommend the HD558.
>>52422700
Not at all. Didn't even have to eq.
>>52422603

>>52422715
Fun that you mention them, they're the ones I got my GF.
It's been a while since I've tried them, but iirc they were quite uncomfortable, pressing on the sides of my head way too much. I don't think I can wear them.
>>52422797
lol it's not bait, you guys are actually really pathetic.
>>52422751
I'm not sure if I want open. The benefit of open ear is that it gives a possibly more realistic sounding experience than simply having music pumped into your head like closed backs do?
How bad are open ears in public places, like, say an airplane?

>>52422842
everyone can be called pathetic for one thing or the next. whats the point in even starting? because of this, i will just troll back
>>52422797
sorry senpai. i agree with you, and i know being off topic is a no no. i just dont see the point in standing still though
>>52422842
Agree. Almost as pathetic as using tripcode on an anonymous imageboard when it is not needed. Fucking attention whores.
Oh wait.
>>52422689
When talking about in-ear I mean something like pic related (not sure if "in-ear" is the right name)

>>52422898
>admitting youre sad and then go around bringing the people you care about down for the same reason that other people tell you that youre pathetic in the first place
this is not a healthy mentality. you should be ignoring the first people completely, rather than going along with what theyre saying and then coming at us with it as well. youre the same thing as they are, yet you despise them. how do you not figure out how silly you are? not smart enough?

>>52422932
actually yeah.
the thing is you already get high end audio quality with like 350-400$ headphones. if you want to get the same kind of quality from regular speakers you would need to pay 2-3x as much.
>>52423028
I already have that one actually

Be very careful with trusting measurements above 10kHz.

It would fill many books and libraries from the physics/math/engineering involved, as well as neuroscience research and subjective examinations.
Such is the nature of acoustics.
>>52421129
Best setup in the thread.
>>52423418
sound, especially in headphones for something that has to be right up to your ear, are far more complicated than you think. this thread is not for the discussion of whether or not they sound good, but these advanced topics instead. not that it actually gets discussed very often.
still, i could say the same about the whole board. hell, all of 4chan. no one really -needs- to be here. once you understand this (and subsequently attain an age higher than 13) youll be at more peace in life

>>52423596
Not much.
I have bass upped in the EQ anyways.
>>52423631
i just wanted to hear your opinion on if you lost any at all, really, since thats what they say.
and, im not sure if that thing is compensating or not, but you could be getting distortion if youre not subtracting from the entire spectrum adequately. maybe look into a better eq like apo equalizer
>>52423675
Huh. Will check it out.
And as an opinion, I haven't noticed any less bass.
>>52422682
>>52422865
Alright, I googled around a bit, and compared various AKGs and Sennheisers with the DT880, and I'm liking the DT880.
I should be getting the 250 Ohm variant, right?
>>52421054
>>52423733
the 250ohm version might not get loud enough on all content as some say it needs an amp. but i dont know if getting the 32ohm version is really worth it. so that amp youre talking about is probably around the corner. id say get an objective 2 or magni 2.

Even a cheap headphone like MDR-V6 is significantly clearer than the K702.
>>52423926
>>52423985
I stick to objective numbers instead of placebo and "perceived fidelity".
EQ is nothing but sliding some bars and biting your tongue till you go "yep that sounds about right!".
People need to stop confusing fidelity with subjectivity. If you like to fuck with EQ shit then have fun. It’s anything but correct “fidelity”.

yeah and this 895 horsepower engine is shit. check out this 900 horsepower engine right over here. who would ever consider the 895 one?

V6 is a true diffuse field headphone. K702's FR is all over the fucking place.
K702 is quite veiled.
>>52424284
m50x is the reddit headphone. youre new if you think akg is.
>>52424302
Only weeaboos buy AKGs. Nobody that's seriously interested in fidelity would buy an AKG headphone.
>>52424223
>>52424223
Lacks in nigger bass. Must be terrible.
I know how EQ works champ. Unless you have some perfect dummy model of your head to do tests all it is is sliding bars hoping for that "just right sound". There is zero objectivity.
>>52424284
>le back to reddit ebin i told him BTFO xDDD
>>52424320
well what open headphone do you recommend at the price point of the k702?
What do you guys think about the new Hyperx Cloud series coming out? Any hope for it?

You're alright anon
>>52424361
HD558. Completely annihilates the K702 for fidelity.
If you're anti Sennheiser for some reason, at least get the DT880.
AKG K702 is the worst of the big three and Harman the company that owns AKGs uses Sennheisers to train listeners because AKGs fall short.

770s still holding up well. They're like slippers for my ears.
>>52424445
Plug in the HD598 directly into the E10K and listen.
It's a bad load to use with the receiver. K702 has a flatter impedance from 20Hz-20kHz so it doesn't sound as bad as the HD598 when used with the receiver.
From an objective perspective, the HD598 is the better measuring headphone.
>>52424408
>>52424382
so youd say hd558 > dt880 > k702?
can i ask you to continue this to include other popular headphones tossed around here, like hd600, 400i, x2, and anything else you feel inclined to add?
Time to join the AKG shill hour
Remember to pick up the best open headphones for under 200

Increasingly tempted by these.
>>52424473
you don't have both and i do, the receiver is being used as a amp since it sounds better, and i cant even bare to listen to the hd598 because its horribly veiled
>>52424490
HD600 > HD558 > DT880 = HE400i > K702 > X2
For accuracy. Some casuals may like the boomy bass of the X2. Sound is subjective after all.
>>52424445
>posting my shitty setup again will show them
>i know what im talking about because i paid for these
>>52424510
I previously owned both.
Also, the receiver is worse than the E10K as an amp.
Ignorance is bliss as they say.

Bot K702 and V6 are great headphones in their price range, then I see no reason why you should call the Sony better than the AKG, besides obvious shitposting. As a plus, K702 is open, which means that it has a more spacious and more natural sound.
>>52424576
Yes.
But you can continue to be delusional.

ok
>>52421054
>>52424515
and then to top this off, what do you say is the best headphone? the hd600 or something else?
>>52424588
see this >>52424598
>>52424631
HD600, but the HD558 is 95% as good for much cheaper.

With or without doing the foam removal mod?
>>52424649
well you using that % just made me interested in another question. you said the dt880 = 400i right underneath the 558. if the 558 is 95% of the hd600, what % of the hd600 is the dt880 and 400i then?

>>52424649
The HD558 is difficult to equalize though
I have one and thinking of getting a HD600 just because it's more neutral by default and its frequency response is much simpler

>>52424685
Foam removal mod doesn't do much.
>>52424686
It's hard to say, if you look at the HD600 and HD558 they have a similar diffuse field sound characteristic, but not so much for the DT880 and HE400i. If you want more treble than and less mids than what the HD600/HD558 offers DT880 is the choice. If you want more sub-bass and more bass impact at the expense of mids then HE400i.

No it isn't, it's the same as the HD600 regarding EQing.
