Not discussing here. Just making a statement. Have a nice day.

The friend of the OP ranks the HD560S as "better than the HD600", and the Sundara as "as good as the HD800S". I stopped reading there. PS: I own a Sundara and a HD600, among other cans.

Just so everybody knows, dakanao has been on my ignore list for a couple of years, so I'm not interacting with him anymore. Plus his post doesn't even make any sense anyway. In my post I was only talking about bass impact (not bass depth). IMHO the HD 600 and the Sundara both lack bass impact...

Really? The HD 600's frequency response is well known since 1997, lol. Even EQed you will lack bass. Check this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dm0m6u3s3b4zqzl/Sennheiser%20HD600.pdf?dl=0 HD 600 are all about their magical midrange, but bass will never be their forte. They are absolutely great, if...

Well, I have a HD 600, and a Sundara (plus my hawks of course). If bass impact is important for you, then don't get any of them. The HD 600 is great. I love it, it my be my favorite headphone. But it lacks bass out of the box, and even EQed it's far from the hawks. The Sundara is a planar, it...

Of course I assume that you've EQed both to the same target curve, using Oratory presets, and not by yourself. Even so, the owls remain closed so that may be the issue. The hawks are more closed than they are open, that's for sure. If you want to go really open and radically different, then try...

Ever thought about EQing your owls? You would find them much more engaging that you'd think, and they could even become the "better" headphone. IMHO the hawks are way too close to the owls to justify having both of them. They're almost identical, except for the closed vs. semi-closed thing. That...

Don't look for Nighthawk-specific pads. Follow this guide and have any size-fitting pads work on your hawks: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/audioquest-nighthawk-impressions-and-discussion-thread.749762/page-107#post-12209435 Ideal pad size is 105x85mm, but 110x90mm fit too and are easier to...

I think that is merely because: Rankings are very subjective crinacle's ranking, like many other rankings, compares un-EQed headphones. So, apples and oranges. That's pointless. I mean, comparing un-EQed headphones isn't about "is this headphone great" but about "do I personally like its...

I finally found the time to push version 1.3 out. :) To be honest I could have done it months ago, but I was lazy since version 1.23 works well for most people. :p On the bright side, I've been using it myself for months, so I can confirm that it works great and I don't see much improvements...

Here's a hint: It doesn't matter. :wink:

Your question was literally answered 4 posts ago in this very topic.

I'm glad you like it :) Which reminds me that I need to release a new version with a couple of new features and some minor corrections (nothing really important). I'm a bit under the weather right now, but I will do it ASAP. Mega Switcher acts as a GUI for Equalizer APO, which is a Windows...

Man, you could easily write a PM to @brux instead of thread-jacking this topic. Thank you. ;)

Late but short reply : YES. While you're in the digital domain, you can use any kind of adapter (not converter) without degrading the signal. And for audio purposes, any USB port has more than enough bandwidth, so USB-C is not required at all.

On Windows, just download HeSuVi. Pick ooyh_0 preset. Done. For many people (depending on your head and ear shape), it will work way better than any crossfeed plug-in. the "wow" effect is generally there. You could also use my free app for the exact same purpose and many other EQ features (check...

I ripped all my CDs a few years ago, with extreme caution, using EAC (Exact Audio Copy) with all the right settings, and keeping the logs for peace of mind. I don't see why I should pay a monthly fee for accessing music that I already own, convenient as it may be. Ripping my CDs was a crazy job...

I don't know what curve the grey one is, but it sure doesn't look like the Meze 99 Classics as measured by many people ! :sweat_smile: Oratory1990 : https://www.dropbox.com/s/ph7mas4rr3addi9/Meze 99 Classics.pdf?dl=0 SBAF ...

I have my own Windows software for that, just check my sig ;) Thanks though.

Maybe I wasn't clear enough. I don't care at all about changing the stock sound. I'll always be able to EQ it afterwards. Here I only care about comfort (30mm thick) and aesthetics. Brainwavz and Dekoni are obvious choices that I was well aware of before posting here. I'm hoping to find...

Thanks. Yes, Brainwavz is the obvious choice, also for some of my other cans like my Nighthawks. Don't know if I'll get a pair for my 99's though. Maybe. I'm currently looking for alternatives, hoping to find something pretty and appealing, worthy of the 99's aesthetic.

Hi, I live in Europe and I'm currently looking for new pads for my 99 Classics. :) I don't want replacement pads from Meze because I don't like how they feel (not thick enough). I want the new pads to feel nice and also to look nice in my custom cabinet. Sound influence is not important because...

With EQ only (I only focus on EQed sound) : Audioquest Nighthawk AND Sennheiser HD 600 : both very different and complementary, even after EQ. - Nighthawk for deep velvet bass, low distortion and insane comfort - HD 600 for naturalness (guitars, strings, voices...) and lack of resonances - One...

I don't like to insist, but when I read something like "if you like something simpler than Peace", I have to say this. Peace and PC Equalizer Free were not designed with headphones and listening sessions in mind. Mega Switcher is simpler, and it includes 15.000 headphone presets for various...

Or you could just take about any headphone and EQ it to Diffuse Field target curve :
