Tempted to get some stax because they look cool. Are they worth the trouble? Looking for neutral sound with a reasonable amount of bass.
>>43366371
>Are they worth the trouble?
Yes.
Let's continue this.
Next post will be the template.

Posting this question again.
What albums do you use to test new headphones?
Has anybody made a guide of recommended material?
I know that things like Rage Against The Machine's debut are often used.
>>43366367
Aren't the akg 701's meant to be used exclusively for studio recordings and shit to pick out very particular sounds, hence the nobass.
>>43366411
No, AKG K701s are for people who watch K-ON and other anime.
>>43366406
Avoid stupid EDM stuff generally, and listen to anything that involves physical instruments.
I use Farm by Dinosaur Jr personally, the album is very loud.
>>43366406
Nigga i gave you the three best songs to try out headphones in the last thread.
maybe if you listened to them you'd know.
>>43366411
yeah they're meant to be good and not shitty consumer grade fartcanons
WHERE IS MY PSA
I NEED MY DAILY DOSE
>>43366431
Electronic music is excellent as long as it uses crisp sounds and a real bass, just remember that faggot who won't listen to me.
Not you, that other guy.
>>43366434
I saw that, just hadn't had the chance to reply.
Anyway, I wasn't asking specifically for recommendations, I was asking what people used.
Different types of music are going to suit different types of headphones aren't they.
>>43366444
Fuck you, I'm glad CG is not here.
>>43366457
Yea, but those three songs in particular are great at testing how a pair of headphones reacts to a wide array of sounds.
If you know how you like to hear those songs, then you'll know whether or not a pair of headphones is good or not.
Also sad but true by metallica is a really, really good song to use due to the high production value.
>>43366472
I've bookmarked them for later listening. There are lots of bands that I hate that have rock solid production on there albums so I'll check that one out too.
What does sterile sound mean? Isn't that a good thing?
>>43366444
>elmer'sglueymotics
>post headphone collection with timestamp to disprove CG
>oh looks it's the permavirgin CG blahblahblah
>>43366522
i would think it means nobass nomids just treble
>>43366522
Do you want your music sterile or full of life like you're there?
>>43366522
I think it means it has no character. Like it's so pristine that you aren't listening to a band playing, you can pick out individual instruments with such ease that it becomes almost clinical.
Might be wrong though. I listen to a lot of noise rock and production values are often raw and I like the roughness of the sound. Some bands prefer a clean sound and I just can't stand it.
>>43366551
I'm in the same boat. I guess I'll have to avoid sterile headphones then.
Anyone knows if the Koss PortaPro fits well on a head while running?
They are in my price range and seem to be what I'm looking like, I just wanna know if I can also use them while running.
Have a 2D girl as a payment.
>>43366522
Sterile = Etymotics
Google the two words together
>>43366576
yes i use them for that.
>>43366558
A good comparison I often use is Catch 22 - Keasbey Nights, which was then rerecorded with better production values years later. I hate how clean the new version is.
>>43366576
you might look a little silly
daily reminder
>>43366406
for metal: cephalic carnage - exploiting dysfunction.
that album has an amazing array of sounds that you'll find to some degree in many different kinds of metal. for example it has bass drops which is good for testing sub-bass extension but it also has very crisp cymbals so it's good for testing the high end too. it has electronic/noise elements, different vocal styles, sampling, even production shifts within the same track.
>>43366619
I don't really care as long as they don't fall off
>>43366583
Cool, thanks
>>43366551
You're pretty much right, but it's important that people recognize this as a subjective perception that is basically a buzzword. Alot of people would associate this perception with rolled off bass and highs, or with a headphone being "too neutral". some others associate it with a soundstage that seems artificially wide.
"lifeless", "dead", and "artificial" are other words people use to describe similar perceptions.
Personally I think most of the low-end Sennheisers sound this way.

>b-but head-fi said it was good
>>43366381
Is it bad to use a high resistance (56ohm) on a sansa clip+? I read it only outputs at 8ohm or whatever that means.
Does it matter or shouldn't I care?
>>43366712
>SE846

>>43366767

>>43366622
The is the best way to think of it is like this. CG is angry, jealous and poor. If he hates something in the threads, it's because he wants it and doesn't want you to have it. CG hates the CD900ST, so I bought a pair and they are my favourite headphones. CG said the K701 were tinny with no bass, I bought a pair and was extremely happy with them, they are great modern headphone to use with vintage amps. CG said Etymotics were shitty ear dildos, I bought a pair and I enjoy them daily with no regrets. CG said Schiit sell hiss monsters, so I bought an Asgard 2 and I have been very satisfied. When CG said the K712 was niggerbass and stolen bikes, I ordered a pair and I'm waiting for them to be delivered.
Thank you CG.
Don't cut yourself on my edge.
Also the RAGEs were free please forgive me
>>43366777
Ah okay thanks. I'll keep using these earphones then and my headphones on my pc.
>>43366791
>>43366807
Don't laugh it hurts my feelies
>>43366767
56 ohm isn't much and ohms aren't everything in the first place v6 are 64 ohm and I guarantee a clip+ would power it.

i remmember watching it during what i think was my childhood.

>>43366770
Head-Fi will buy anything once it's expensive.
SE846's treble extension is hilarious, I've heard $5 IEMs that are better than it in this regard. No lie. If I were mixing a track and I had to use a SE846 or that $5 Panasonic I'd take the Panasonic every time.
Not to mention it's muddy as fuck.

This isn't really related to headphones as such, but does anyone else have a small bit of tinnitus? I'm scared it might be ruining my musical experience. I want to get some nice headphones but I'm always believing that this tiny quiet ringing will drown out any details.
>>43366854
>knock-off V6s
>>43366862
Doesn't matter when listening to music. It's masked.
>>43366862
Avoid bright sounding headphones.
>>43366862
I've head tinnitus since before i was 10, I believe. It is not constant. In my case it only appears when the ears "rest" after a listening session. I'd recommend you to not listen too loudly.
>>43366622
>No closed over-ear headphones come close to clarity
>HF5 is reasonably priced relative to other balanced armature headphones
>>43366969
The guy who made that image is an ape that loves nigger-bass, it's best to ignore it.
>>43366862
I have a little bit of tinnitus as well.
I don't think it affects my ability to hear the music since I don't notice the tinnitus when there's a little noise around me or when I'm awake and concentrating on something else.
The only time I notice the tinnitus is when it's completely quiet around me (like when I go to sleep).
Bit hard to name albums I would like the most

I used to have a great pair of K171's that went "missing" when I moved house and I've been tempted to pick up a set of K271's. I don't want to jump straight to AKG though and would like to try something else like I did with the HD25's.
>>43366406
I usually listen to Red and a couple other albums I've listened to over the years. Red 5.1 is especially a blast with different headphones.
>>43366897
it has nothing to do with bright headphones. you can get it alot of ways but being exposed to loud noise for prolonged periods often is the usual cause.

TH-02, it was /g/'s FOTM for quite a while, haven't heard much about it as of lately.
>>43367160
I think for me it has more to do with earwax accumulation. I got a bad ear infection once by being dumb and using qtips to regularly clean out earwax all the way back to the eardrum and the infection got behind it. Had to go to a specialist to get it taken care of after my doctor was being a retarded hack and giving me overpriced diluted vinegar to treat an infection behind the eardrum as if that was going to do anything.
Specialist guy was just like "tilt your head" and stuck what must have been a tiny drill/suction behind my eardrum and drilled that shit out. Almost fainted from the pain, but afterward it was amazing. No ringing and I could hear better than ever. Kind of wished he had done the other ear because it was imbalanced hearing for awhile while I assume the eardrum healed.
>>43367349
Maybe against other flagship models. They've tasted the best already so there's no need to justify it against models below it.
>>43367295
I bought every headphone I own (7) on hype from people that they were a great value and I have yet to disappointed. that said some had problems in other ways like comfort but I fixed those with mods.

Boy, I'd love to get an ASBO for listening to music. It's bad enough with bookshelf speakers if you have a bastard neighbour who likes to call the police at 1 in the afternoon.
>>43367295
Sometimes, but if I see something else later I know I'll probably own it at some point.
Only headphones I've had buyers remorse for are some Audio Technica headphones.
I own a few AKG headphones K450, K81, K240, K701, K280 and used to own K171's. I'd like a set of K142's but you tend not to get buyers remorse if you have a reasonable idea of what you're getting. I don't think the K271's would surprise me too much if I bought them, and I'm not stupid enough to run out and buy the 702's Q701's or the K712's just for a detachable cable, colour, or earpad.
Compare that to something like the Audio Technica ATH-M50's for me, I've only had a few experiences with the brand and the sound. It'd be very easy to feel remorseful about these.
>>43367459
I feel like I haven't listened to music until I've listened to some ATH-M50s. I've had Sennheiser HD280, Grado sr125i and Beyerdynamic DT770, but never the M50s.
>>43366862
Open headphones with rolled off treble for you. Closed cans isolate the highs really effective and bring out the tinnitus much more easily. Sennheiser HD 650 or Sennheiser HD 600.

Yes, but people with no knowledge asking what they can get for $100 are too plentiful and need to fuck off.
>>43368830
How hard is it to drive?
What's the point of having so many $200 headphones like some people in these threads do?
Wouldn't it be better to save those money to buy more pricey headphones like the HD800 so you can have nicer sound and bragging rights?
>>43368840
It's an easy load, I can drive it fine out of my motherboard which has an op-amp in its audio section. The PM1 also doesn't leak out sound despite being an open design, pretty nifty feature.
>>43368830
So it's better than the HD800?
I'm tired.
>>43368895
>doesn't leak sound
That sounds weird. These HE-500s leak everything and placing ANYTHING near to the grills covering the driver will make them sound tinny because the leaking sound reflects back to the driver and to your ear. Say I stretch a bit and my shoulders get a bit close to the headphones, the difference in sound is substantial due to the sound waves bouncing off. There's no issue with wearing them on my head while I just sit on a chair but
>>43368897
Hard to say, really different sounding though. I like the PM1 better than any Audez'e can with the sole exception of LCD-3F but I will probably take the PM1 as well because they are so much lighter and more comfortable.
>>43368967
>placing ANYTHING near to the grills covering the driver will make them sound tinny
Sound is unaffected if you place your hands on top of the PM1's grills.
>>43366381
Shure needs more love.
>>43368907
Will you be my gf?
>>43368830
Honestly the PM1 sounds like it's worth $500, not $1000
It's so rolled off on both ends
I mean it's great if you like that sound but I don't see a reason it should cost that much
>>43367162
What model headphones are they?
>>43368729
DT250 is kinda overrated on here, the treble is quite dead to be honest.
>>43369063
They seem like a nicer V6 at 3x the price.
>>43369077
It's 1000 times better than the V6 and 7506 which I both own - but it's still quite overrated. It's definitely not neutral.
>>43369044
Yeah, the treble and details can be lacking in the PM1 but it has a mysteriously captivating sound. Reminds me of early STAX SR-007 in one way or another.
>>43369092
What would you recommend for a closed back neutral headphone?

>>43369092
>V6 and 7506 which I both own
Why have both and do the 7506 drivers give off a better sound or not?
>>43369120
I've been looking for something like that for the longest while. You can get the DT250 and reduce the upper midrange a bit and boost the treble by about 4dB and it sounds good.
Still doesn't come close to the ER-4P.

Some people have different headphones that they use for different things.
For example, until my stupid fucking Czech neighbour started hammering at the wall (which he'll do for the next three hours) I've been listening to albums using the AKG K701. Now that I can hear his thumping and scraping I'm going to switch to a closed headphone so that I can unwind and have my "Lazy day".
>>43369143
Do you like the ER4-P or S better?
This is a reminder that Etymotic IEMs have no bass, terrible build quality, abysmal "comfort" and shamefully poor customer service.
>>43366622

>>43369130
Both sound the same, exactly the same. My brother shuffled them on my head and I couldn't tell which was which. I have both because I got the V6 on sale for $40 some time back.
>>43369159
I like the ER-4P more, on some songs the ER-4S can sound a bit shrill and overly detailed.

This is the best one.
>Only if and when I see a significant career / pay increase. I'm pretty happy with them. I wouldn't mind DT770s, DT880s and a nice amp to drive them I guess but it's not necessary. Will only go that route if that becomes extremely financially easy to do.
CG confirmed for wanting DT770 and DT880. This proves >>43366778 correct.
CG also wants Etymotics hence why he trolls them so badly.
Poor kid.
>>43369355
>everything here costs 4x more.
Better start buying headphones from your booming industry of local electronics manufacturers. :^).

>don't need an amp
>the most neutral circumaural headphones under $400
>vastly superior to DTXX0 and K701 family, as well as any Etymotics
>strong, flexible build quality
>robust, pellucid sound with satisfying but not overwhelming bass response and loads of detail without being fatiguing, muddy, tinny or veiled
Perfection incarnate.

There may just be, but most shitters who rip music fail to mention which release they have. You could take a gamble and try downloading the odd album here or there but it would probably be easier to just buy the CD's second hand.
I avoid buying a "remaster" on CD without checking first. The catalog numbers from Discogs may help you though.

Here is more proof that CG wants an ER-4S, too bad he doesn't have $300.

>>43369382
People who rip CDs to FLAC usually indicate which cases are remasters and which are originals.
Not that it matters much, but I prefer to avoid 96/24, since it adds nothing and vinyl rips often have needle skips and other issues.

Except when they fail to mention which remaster it is. Sometimes buying the CD is the safest way.
Give the Vinyl's a go if you can't find anything, They don't take up that much HDD space.
>>43369499
Sure, CG.
How about that picture and timestamp of headphone collection.

Don't make me cry, anon. Living in this country makes me extremely sad.
Fucking leftist government and it's retarded protectionism on industries that do not exist here. Brazil is even more protectionist than China, fucking china.
>>43369421
It's a hairpin.
>>43369426
it definitely matters since many remasters are "hurr just make it louder people don't know how to use volume knobs" which makes it sound muddy.
Man, CG got owned.
I visit these threads just for the CG drama.
>>43369540
why does it look like an egg though? does she like eggs?
>>43369555
Yeah that is a pretty sad tendency. Usually I get the originals though.
>>43369566
It's a part of her character, her sisters wears one too.
>>43369535
Try 'em out, I'm also going to try them and see how they are.
It's this set of SACD remasters - http://www.discogs.com/Moody-Blues-Seventh-Sojourn/release/5193614
May be worthwhile checking out some reviews.
>>43369555
That hurts, but there's also some really bad remasters out there that just don't fit. Adding stuff back in that was left on the cutting room floor before. It's nice, but include it as a bonus track, or suddenly boosting the bass/drums/guitars and masking backing instruments.

Oh I now get it, I thought this was a grado modding guide, hence why I never looked at it.

Add stupid to that because if he bought a cheap soldering iron and taught himself to solder, instead of shitposting on /hpg/, he could have made a really nice self built setup by now.
>>43369793
It's fine though, pal. The foam he carved out of his moms sofa and then sticky taped to his cheap headphones are cool as fuck

Who the hell spends time making a graph like that?
The Etymotics are much worse than the HD800, I know, I own both.
>>43370041
Do you EQ the HD 800?
>>43370060
Nope.
>>43370081
I also just roll with the treble off the DT 880. What other headphones have you got?
>>43370041
CG made that, the Ety shill added the ER-4 on top for kicks.
Also, I prefer STAX and ER-4 over the HD800 anyways, 2bright4me.
meh
>>43370104
HD800 > HD25 > Etymotic ER-4P > Alessandro MS-PRO
>>43370107
CG used to troll HD558s and HD598s before he began shilling them if anyone is confused.
>>43370127
Cool, I was hoping for some comparisons, but you covered that right away.
SR-303 > DT 880 > Koss Porta Pro > Sennheiser MX 580
I doubt that is of much surprise to anyone though.

I'll give you the other two, but portapros are some of the best open cans in their price range
>>43370162

Bought used? How much you paid and what was the condition like?
I need to get some used STAX.
What are your guys opinion on the Razer Adaro and Hammerheads
>>43370370
>Razer
Overpriced gayman gimmick.
>>43370261
Yes, bought used, but it was an heirloom and in excellent condition. The seller was also selling her deceased father's speakers and Thule amplifiers.
I paid $576 (odd number due to conversion) for this SRS-3030 set. Included was an SRM-313 amplifier with dual 5 pin outputs, so it was different from the typical one that has a 5 pin and a 6 pin output, but I have not been able to find a similar version.
>>43370370
Razer and audio should never be combined.
RE-400 or HF5, /g/?
>>43370418
The latter of course.
>>43370402
This is the lazy answer.
The correct answer is that it depends on product, astrological positioning, phase of the moon, and solar flare activity. Some Razer gear is really good, and some of it is shit, even within the same SKU of the same product. Their QA is really, realy bad.
>>43370418
>HF5
They're shit: http://pastebin.com/ifdehVfJ
Looking for some decent headphones that are strong in bass for a decent price. However they can't look like something I can pick up at a corner store.
>>43370444
>>43370418
samefag.
Also, HF5 has a superior frequency response, superior build quality when compared to the RE-400.
>>43370461
I like when a group of people on a disagree on someones opinion they're automatically accused for being samefags
>>43370444
Yowza. Ordered the RE-400. Thanks, /g/.

Post proof that you ordered the RE-400.
