    Funny comments from the forums.

    This may have already been posted, I'll admit I didn't go through all 24 pages.But this oldie but goody from mkmelt in 2004. It's a riff on an old WWII joke:     Quote:   When I saw this thread, I immediately thought of the whole Singlepower bruhahah.

    Let's Catch A Thief!! (Update: CAUGHT!)

    I don't post so much anymore, not so heavy in the game, and the old community seems mostly gone. But I do drop back in from time to time to lurk, and my heart dropped to my stomach to see this happen to Todd.

    Rock out with FREE DENON Headphones! - Must enter this week

    So those that didn't win, who are saying they got notification that they didn't win, they're lying then. Right. Who knows why we didn't all get the reject notice, but mass email can be wonky like that.

    No email from Denon, but I assume that means not-so-much. Congrats to the winners! :)

    Rock out with FREE DENON Headphones! - Must enter this week

    In the grand scheme of things, it's not taking Denon as long as it's taking Audiocubes to ship an order placed before the contest, available within 1-3 days. So if Denon took two extra weeks, they'd still be faster... Giving out free headphones. :)

    beyer t70 & t70p NEW!

    Yeah, that sound is called "A pretty good compromise at getting an iphone to sound reference without any help" until its character is changed completely with a big boy source and amp, and 120 extra ohms in the headphone jack, then it really shows its stuff. The guy you got into that flame war...

    beyer t70 & t70p NEW!

    Historically the dt770 has never been a closed back dt880, so I don't know how the t70 could be expected to be, but anyway...

    BeyerDynamic owners unite...

    The biggest one, and it's not true of all Beyers IMO, but some, is the extra ohms. I don't know, maybe that would annoy me more if I didn't have a Corda amp the 120 ohm output option staring me right in the face an no more difficult to plug into.   That really bloats up many headphones, but...

    I'm not seeing an edit button anymore, so I can't add the dt770 pro to that post.

    BeyerDynamic owners unite...

    Let's see, my first taste of a grown up headphone was the old 600 ohm dt990, the one with the plastic and cloth headband. Then I had the dt990 pros, dt880, dt531, dt250/80 (the unsung hero), the dt990 600 ohm Manufaktur, the t50p, and now I'm on the t5p. Those "Beyer is team treble" people don't...

    beyer t70 & t70p NEW!

    Quote: I have me a nice hat collection, and I'd bet that there would absolutely be a t80/t90. They wouldn't refresh just one headphone of the range. The fun part comes when overlapping generations are on the market and who knows what they'd rather get. Then you have the 600 ohm option...

    Any old fart head-fi'ers still around?

    I don't post so much anymore, but I read some stuff about the t5p that doesn't exactly fit the full picture - it's not wrong, but just not the full picture. And it's gotten this long post working around in my head that is going to have to burst itself out onto a new thread at some point. I just...

    beyer t70 & t70p NEW!

    Umm, I don't get it. Why can't the dt series get refreshes with newer technology? Why isn't that allowed? It doesn't make sense...   And the t50p and dt1350 are much much more portable, being on-ear.   I think the t5p is getting its numbering from the old dt5xx series personally. That...

    Good ole Jan, he says as much and why that could possibly be, right here.

    beyer t70 & t70p NEW!

    Well it's not like I'm the one who made them, you don't have to blame me for plugging into the 120ohm out to see what happens. Beyer's own amp isn't exactly a 0 ohm headphone out.   The paradox is that from an iPhone they sound fine too. But plugging into a bigger source I guess reveals...

    beyer t70 & t70p NEW!

    Quote: That's my thinking, it's a refresh of the entire line. Remember the last time during the refresh when both lines did overlap, the pro, the non-pro, and then 2005 edition all out there at the same time. It smells like the same thing here.

    beyer t70 & t70p NEW!

    Quote: Plug in unburned in t5p's into a 120ohm headphone out jack, and it's no longer bright at all. ;) Sorta like the old days with the dt831 and 931.

    Are Beyer T-1s designed for 120 ohm headphone amp outputs?

    Necromancing an old thread, but I was researching this subject on the t5p. It's early days in the burn-in process, and for my main rig I prefer them from the 120ohm output by a long way. Thank goodness for not selling the Corda! :)

    beyer t70 & t70p NEW!

    I haven't heard the t1, but do have the t5p unburned in on my ears right now. The soundstage is big, but I've never heard a Beyerdynamic with s logic. :p Whether s logic is actually a thing or not, it belongs to Ultrasone, So, if we have the t70, then I wonder when we will also see the t80 and...

    IC: B&W P5 vs Beyer T50p vs Senn HD25-1 Shootout

    The dt250s were always my go-to cans for honesty in audio. I agree with everything you say here, except that the p5 delivers more of what I want to hear in a portable headphone. But I sold the dt250 (and dt990!) because t5p is incoming.   I went back and forth on the issue, given that a new...

    Ah, the days that the Members Lounge looked more like TIO. I'm guessing most of us in this thread remember TIO. :D Quote:
