    Sennheiser HD 700 Impressions Thread

    This is amazing hearing from someone with an identical stack as myself (thanks for feedback)!   I take it you never ran into this high frequency peak with our stack? Or are you using a software/TT EQ to dial back the top end. Do you get any high frequency listening fatigue at all?   I will...

    Sennheiser HD 700 Impressions Thread

    That is nice to hear another Asgard 2 user having a good experience with these cans. Are you using a DAC too, if so which one?   I really love the fit and finish of the HD700 and HD800 line. These headphones really speak to my design aesthetic. The fact that they are open and comfortable makes...

    Sennheiser HD 700 Impressions Thread

    Thanks for all the feedback. I like the idea of trying an alternative DAC to bring in some warmth. Any other DAC recommendations that would give a warmer feel to offset the bright amp?

    Sennheiser HD 700 Impressions Thread

    I am a little concerned about bright cans being paired with a bright amp. Sadly a schiit stack is my  best quality headphone amp at the moment. I have always been bigger on speaker gear then cans (until now)   Do you guys think it is possible to use an EQ in your stack to dial back the bright...

It seems at the current price range of 400-500 (depending on the deal) there is a lot of value to be found here.   I am a bit...

    Sony MDR-F1 Review

    I thought I would come back to this thread and share restoration success. I bought the Beyerdynamic's DT990 ear pads for my MDR F1's.    They were exactly 100mm and fit the outer earpad rings perfectly. The interior cuff that wrapped around however was way to short, I did managed to make it...

    Sony MDR-F1 Review

    Sorry to necro this thread once again, but I have owned a pair of Sony MDR-F1 for many years (since they were released back in late 90's). I still use them from time to time and over the years the Escaine Earpads and the Escaine headband material has worn (and torn) slightly.   I checked Sony...
