Wow! Sennheiser HD 540 Reference are so good.
Hey 👋 after one week experience with the hd 560 I’ve been able to understand the sound difference with the hd540 😃 while the both sounds quite bright (e g compared to the hd600), the hd560 are definitely much more enriched with the bass. Btw which models from the modern headphones (akg...- Maitre Renard

Wow! Sennheiser HD 540 Reference are so good.
Unbelievable, 35 years and still in great shape. and regarding the pads, It's not possible to find something native-like (with the integrated rings ), right ? Anyway, I would be extremely thankful for any specific examples ? Do we need 100 or 105 mm ? I found this one which could do the show...- Maitre Renard

Wow! Sennheiser HD 540 Reference are so good.
Hey 👋 I’ve just gotten a HD 560 refII ( made in Ireland) in excellent conditions. Quickly looking on the original pads (opening it from one side ) it looks very similar to my HD 540 , with plastic rings inside . However I noticed that the velour pads (green colour) are attached to the rings ...- Maitre Renard

Magnetic driver placement on the Hifiman Sundara 2020
Hello there ! I’ve just purchased a secondhand Hifiman Sundara 2020 in excellent conditions using Amazon. After quick visual inspection I could identify that the magnetic plates on the right side of the headphones are non fully parallel to the external metallic grid compared to the other side...- Maitre Renard

Bravo ! 🤩 And how could you determine the diameter of new (red) rings ? Based only on the pads or you used another par of the rings as the template?- Maitre Renard

Akg k701(2) va k712 what is the real difference?
Hello there ! I have already read many reviews that always classify the k702 on the top of the triad among the K 7xx série . On other hand the official AKG site says the k701 is the superior over the k702 with bigger driver, special pads etc . So which one could be better taking into...- Maitre Renard

On the selection of HiRES open-back headphones.
Great, thank you very much! Actually no problem for the bass , since I would appreciate more treble oriented open sound like in my Sennheiser hd 540 but even with better stage and more details..- Maitre Renard

On the selection of HiRES open-back headphones.
Hey 👋 thank you very much for this suggestions! The XS costs around 450 euros on my side , so 200 euros more than the Sundara . I also noticed that the SR looks bulkier and probably heavy than the Sundara , which attracted me with its minimalist ( for planar magnet) design . So the XS would be a...- Maitre Renard

On the selection of HiRES open-back headphones.
Hello ! I am looking for an open-back alternative to my lovely Denon ahd-7200. I would like something with the same resolution but with wide soundstage. I do not consider Sennheiser 6xx which sounds very dark in my taste. I have already had a pair of the AKG K712 or Fidellio x2, which sound...- Maitre Renard

Denon Ah-d7200 vs Sennheiser HD660S as HD headset
Right, thank you! BTW regarding amplifiers, would it be worth to consider as well some models of Denon (I believe they are well known initially for the amplifiers rather then for headsets) which may be found on the local Amazon?- Maitre Renard

Denon Ah-d7200 vs Sennheiser HD660S as HD headset
Well although it’s not a topic related entirely to the Denon , I would say that the ahd 7200 definitely is more interesting than the 5200. Although the resolution is very close , the 7200 introduces the overall perception of the natural wood that is almost absent in the case of the 5200 (why it...- Maitre Renard

Denon Ah-d7200 vs Sennheiser HD660S as HD headset
I gotcha, thank you ! Actually the amplifier that I showed, seemed to be cool, due to the EQ on the board which could be a great option for ahd7200. Indeed Thé k5 pro is very cool all in one box , I have not tried the new version with ESS dac 😇- Maitre Renard

Just one more question regarding the amplifier that could be paired with the both low impedance as well as 300 ohm Sennheiser headsets. I am considering either - Schiit Audio Magni (120 euros used ) or - Palmer pdha02 ( 170 euros used) The Palmer looks more solid but I did not understand how...- Maitre Renard
