hd598 is veiled
Sonico almost looked like Origami just now.
Also, why the fuck am I getting a "Connection error." whenever I try uploading a pic?

Hd558 has no bass

We reddit now.
Listening to the DT770, DT880 and DT990 made me reminisce about this one time I went to my pot dealer's place in college. I didn't have a lot of money at the time, but I wasn't completely broke either, so while I couldn't afford top-shelf chronic, I didn't want to settle for Mexican brick weed either. However, I was incredibly sad to learn that my dealer, at the time, had no mids for me, only Mexican and chronic. This intense disappointment over a lack of mids was exactly like my experience listening to the aforementioned Beyerdynamic headphones, an experience I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy.

This.
HD558 are the best headphones within twice their price range and have great bass and clarity as well as a balanced sound signature, excellent comfort, strong, flexible durability, a large soundstage and great positional accuracy. They also don't need an amp. They are close to the perfect headphones.

Who /STAX/ here?
What do you /g/uys think of the sennheiser HD 202 mk2?
>>44654590
It's like a poor man's M50.
>>44654255
Well. i'm just glad that the pic of the girl is gone.
>>44654358
> Removing the sticker
She's hideous now.
>>44654623
That bad huh? I guess I'll keep looking :/
>>44654406
yep. that's butthurt.
>>44654689
That doesn't mean that it's bad, for $20 and if you like the African bass, it's a good choice.
what does it mean if headphones sound veiled
>>44655066
The clarity of the music suffers.
I have a big head. It is also quite round and wide compared to most - will I find M50s really uncomfortable?
>>44655677
Probably.
My AKG K240s always lose the sound in the right ear, and I have to go and open them up and resolder them. It happens every couple of weeks, and I've had them for years, I must have done it easily over 20 times, and it's getting annoying, and I'm running out of clean wire to solder. Any ideas how to fix them for good? I'm half considering gluegunning everything but then if it breaks again I'm fucked.
>>44656135
Well that sucks. The shitti hifi shop near me doesn't have them so I couldn't try a pair on. Thanks for the help. What would be the closest pair (in terms of design, and decent bass response but nothing too ridiculous) in a similar price range?
>>44656375

The 7506 is really bass-heavy though...

my girlfriend is looking for WIRELESS headphones in that price range. There are so many good headphones she could have gotten in that range but she will absolutely not accept wired headphones. She wants them wireless and with lots of bass. She also says that they have to be pleather/leatherette or whatever its called and they cant be velour or any fabric because it makes her ears/side of face itch. Help me /g/. Does anything like this exist?
XL pads make these blanket and coffee tier comfort. I'm talking 7+hours of comfort.
Somehow improve the sound too. They open them up a bit which improves clarity. Something about the increase in cup volume.

DT770 Pro 80 ohm.

Try to make your samefags veiled like the HD558 next time.
I want to buy one of these and I've been reading mixed reviews on the earbuds. (For some possible bait, google "sansa earbuds" and check out the first result from head-fi.)
Are the earbuds good enough for being on the go, or should I invest in some decent IEM's?
I want to buy the AKG 271 MK2.
anything obscure i should know before buying?
>>44656645
They're pretty shit. I love my clip, the only problem I have with it is that I have a hard time navigating to things that I want to listen to while I am driving and shit. Touch controls spoiled me

Why are Sennheisers such muddy pieces of shit with poor build quality, /g/?
>>44655066
In these threads, it usually means the headphones have neutral, Sennheiser-like treble instead of ear-raping, harsh, sibilant, Beyerdynamic-like treble.
>>44657095
Sennheiser has no headphone in production that has neutral treble you filthy shill.
>>44657116
>>44657144
I'm stating facts you filthy shill.
Number of headphones on the Wall of Fame of the Internet's most respected headphone reviewer:
Sennheiser: 12
Beyerdynamic: 1
STAX: 1
Etymotic: 1
AKG: 0
Other brands, are you even trying?
>>44657235
>12
>then 1
>nothing in the middle
Just like Beyerdynamics' sound!
>>44657235
more like snapheiser shill

Beyersremorse sufferers getting BTFO in this thread.
>>44656406
It has a bass boost, though not a large one, and its treble is louder than its bass. I wouldn't call it "really bass-heavy."
>>44657235
Reminder that Sennheiser even beat STAX at their own game. 20 years later STAX still havent taken home the crown.

Imagine if Sennheiser start making planar headphones in 1-2 years.

What a time to be alive.

Yeah, if anyone could make planars comfy, it'd be Sennheiser.

Hifiman did a good job with HE-560 tho. Its only 360 grams. HD800 is at 330 grams.
>>44657556
>SR-009 better than HD600

STAX have no bass.

HELP /g/
>>44657576
Yeah right. Electrostatic bass is a shit ton better than that boosted midbass dynamic crap.
>>44657642
This guy gets it.
>>44657642
Planar bass > Dynamic bass > Electro bass

Boy, the permavirgin CG surely is desperate.
>>44657744
HD800 truly is shit.
One of the worst headphones I have ever heard.
Is pic related any good?
>>44657767
Looks highly fashionable, cheap and has a chink shit name. The answer is no.
>>44657796
what does highly fashionable have to do with anything? only ugly headphones are good? I don't get it
>>44657819
>Implying Beyerdynamic headphones are good
>>44657819
If fashion was deemed more important than acoustics in the design process, it's a no-brainer that the headphones are shit.
>>44657857
>companies can't put equal emphasis on aesthetics and sound
You're just a closed-minded fool.
>>44657903
All, I'm saying is that there are very few fashion headphones that aren't just utter shit.
>>44656645
if you want a something youre going to not give a shit about breaking while you go for a run or whatever it's a better alternative than most phones. you could also spend $10 more and get an unactivated nokia 520 that has a touch screen and you can surf the interwebs and get some apps but youd be giving up a 3-4 day battery.
I tested these headphones in Paris. These are freaking amazing, although high priced (390€). Top build quality with real leather. Sounds gorgeous. Damn I wish I wasn't a poorfag.
