Using the Beoplay H6 from Bang and Olufsen. Truly amazing set of headphones in my opinion. 24mm drivers, bass port (nicely balanced just like we're used to from B&O) with a range from 20 to 22000 Hertz. The headphones open up a beautiful soundstage and preforms very well in the mids and highs. The bass is nice and luckily not over powered like we've seen in recent headphones from bose, B&W and even Sennheiser for that mater.

To sum it up, if you are looking for clarity, spacious and unforgiving sound I can highly recommend this pair of headphones.
>>
>>48894963
These are what I have, but I don't consider them audiophile level.
>>
Do you guys also have nice stereo systems? Or do you just dedicate to headphones
>>
>>48894480
what the hell is the point of it if it's unpleasant to have on your head
>>
>>48897450
I have an OK pair of headphones and an OK stereo system.

Headphones are the Audio-Technica ATH-A900x, speakers are some old B&W DM580's
>>
>>48893320
Not exactly god-tier headphones (at least I don't think) but I got a pair of Mura SP-294's. Are these good?

I wish I had those. I don't know if I want to spend all that money though. I got these SP-294s for a quarter at my local thrift shop and they sound awesome.

Use to have a pair of Audio Technica ATH-AD700, and I loved them. Unfortunately they broke, so I got a pair of of the Akg k240's for cheap, and they sound nice. They are not nearly as comfortable though.
>>
>>48897872
Post a picture of your 800s. Or are you just a poser?

HD650's are a fun pair, especially when rolling

What do you guys think of Grado's GS1000(i/e)?

Does anybody else of ATH m50s? They may not be the best phones, but they are the sub-$200 standard for closed headphones.

Getting these puppies soon.

Also getting a Schiit Modi DAC, and an 02 amp.

Thoughts on that set up?

>>48899509

>>
>>48897850
Yeah, i have the 650's as well, and you need a proper amp to power them, so you'll end up spending more than twice the price of the cans to get the most out of them.
>>
I had some 200 dollar AKGs but they got real beat up so I bought some 70 dollar Sony MDR V6s and they blow everything under 300 out of the water.

/mu/ needs its own headphone thread.

>>
>>48899509
If you get any type of hiss or weird electric noise from your source then a new dac would be good.
You only need an amp for higher impedance headphones to drive them.
>>
got some HD558s today
love them

Thinking about a DT770 or 880, which one?
