I actually liked your review quite a lot, thanks for that and the measurements! For me the problem with HD600 is the difference in bass between the 100 Hz and about 50 Hz regions. It just makes double bass drum for example loose too much punch. At the same time the eargain region so pronounced...

Are you on production pads only or did you also compare with mixing? HD600 is still maybe the best headphone for that timbre you describe/hear there. And sorry for you to hear that track 20 times in a row... :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Listened to some Billie Eilish tracks today and really...

Only the very top region between the coil and the connector on my unit and it is still not that microphonic compared to some other cables. Also no loud weird sounds when tapping the headband or moving the cable over clothes for me. So from my point of view this is not a problem. Still looking...

I also had a FT5 loaner for a week and now have HD 490 Pro. Biggest difference for me is weight and comfort: FT5 had too small pads and thus created pressure at the ears. So for bigger ears Sennheiser is way more comfortable and also super leightweight - you forget wearing them. Headband...

Also a question I always have when people say that a headphone lacks in detail and some other attributes as well. Because objective measurements don´t show anything that could let me conclude this - my ears do neither. I would recommend comparing them side-by-side if possible. He was refering...

I had the HEDDphone2 here right before getting the HD 490 Pro - unfortunately no overlap. But for me the HD 490 Pro is overall the better headphone with better sound quality ( also comfort, driveability etc. no contest). Funny how everyone wants this to be an improved HD600. I don´t have that...

Review from DIY-AudioHeaven I am trying and also liking the mixing pads at the moment...bass quantity on my head is still fine, bass feels fast and punchy. Don´t feel like I need more bass for most music. Listening to Charcoal Grace from Caligula´s Horse at the moment, really enjoying it...

I agree with the HD 490 Pro being on another level soundwise than HD 560s. I would absolutely recommend giving these a listen if you can. But I also think that it feels better because the construction with stainless steel headband etc. and the adjusting mechanisms feel clickier with less play in...

For comparison with the HD 560s you have to keep in mind that there was a 2022 revision with less treble than the first production runs: https://diyaudioheaven.wordpress.com/headphones/measurements/brands-s-se/hd-560s/ I have the revision of 560s with less treble and would say that the...

My pair arrived today. So far so good. Comfort is really good on my head, lightweight, clamp is not too strong and pads are big enough and feel nice. Can compare to HD560s, Hifiman Ananda and Audeze Maxwell later. First impression is really good. Liking what I´m hearing so far.

I have a pair on order am looking pretty much forward to them. The treble looks quite smooth and I think the bass should give it a good balance. I would not overrate the measurements and such a smooth treble range is super easy to EQ if you feel the need to. If you compare them to maybe the...

The earpads in my Audeze Maxwell for example are a bit bigger and my ears fit them well. After some A/B comparisons I think that the Maxwell can sound pretty close to the FT5 with its builtin EQ. But I must say I changed my EQ for the Maxwell because of listening to the FT5 a lot. I quite like...

I have the FT5 for test a few days and I really like it with the Pleather pads. Only problem for me is earcups touching my ears a bit and that can hurt a bit after longer listening. But for example the New Porcupine Tree live Album sounds so fun on these. The Bass is really really enjoyable...

Got my PR2 a few days ago (shipping to Germany was quite fast from KZ - 8 days only) and it is quite an outstanding IEM for the price. Yes, I guess I will downshelf the treble a few dB, but other than that...quite impressed. For some mixes I like them stock even. Trying a few different tips the...

@Audeze Does the bitdepth and samplerate change the latency when used in windows? So is 24bit/96kHz higher latency than for example 16/48? I am currently playing guitar through plugins and listening to them via wireless Maxwell - holy crap this is amazing! (Reaper, WASAPI 24/48 - USB connection...
