Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread
Stock pads for sure, tried pad rolling with HD600's a long time ago with 6 different sets, I learned to just stick with what works when it comes to Sennheisers :sweat_smile: There definitely could be a sound change given all the physical of properties of foam vs nylon. For me however, it was...- Smugsie

Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread
Its been a full year since I've had the HD660S2's, time flies! While we're on the topic of earpads, I just replaced mine with new, fresh pads. It's such a surreal experience. My original pads are compressed by 5mm in the middle, although it sucks to be throwing them out this early, it feels like...- Smugsie

That's exactly what we're doing :) Sorry I misunderstood, thought you were wearing them with bare-open drivers- Smugsie

You should follow what some of us are doing :) Stretch a piece of nylon over the drivers, then snap the earpads back on while the nylon is stretched. Stretch the nylon again with one hand, then use scissors to cut as close as possible to the earpads, the nylon will retract into the earpads and...- Smugsie

Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread
I jumped from JDS Atom -> FiiO K7 Pro -> Topping L30 -> JDS EL II+ Stack. In short: The JDS Atom and HD660S2 was a bit shouty. K7 Pro was alright but didn't have the clarity of the Atom. L30 lacked a bit of treble definition compared to the JDS Atom. EL II+ has a smidge more clarity in the...- Smugsie

Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread
Thank you for your detailed comparison. I love vocals, and my former HD600's have stuck around with me for 6 years because I love vocals. However I sold them off now, and the HD660S2 made me have a better appreciation for instrumentals. Should I have that itch for vocals again I'll look not at...- Smugsie

How would you say the midrange is with the NDH30 vs the 660S2?- Smugsie

Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread
Oh man this is an entire rabbit hole in itself. I went through a bunch of budget stacks to find the right pairing for the 660S2. Topping stack, the fiio K7, the JDS atom stack, jds objective O2 DAC + THX 789. Until I finally found the one: the JDS EL Stack II+. Trust me, if you're to go with any...- Smugsie

Alright, looks like I'll be leaving the 660S2's stretched whenever I'm not using them. I just have a giant head. The HD600's have a headband that's wider by about half an inch and is slightly more comfortable for me. Thanks for the reply.- Smugsie

Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread
Grados headphone assembly are lighter at 170 grams, Grado stethoscope cables are 175 grams by itself, so definitely not lighter lol. Speaking of comfort, how long does it take to stretch a Sennheiser headband? I have mine stretched across 3 coat racks that is about 12(?) inches apart. Will this...- Smugsie
