Bose qc35ii. You can find them used for half your budget. You can use them wired or wireless. They have as much or more sub bass than the Beyer dt 770 without the peaky treble. I know audiophiles sneer at bose headphones but this model is above the rest in the bose line according to my taste...

There is now the creative aurvana live se. You can buy it with it's companion dac or just the headphone. Still a great price for just the headphone. Maybe the best closed back budget headphone you can buy. I don't think there's a better headphone at the price, depending on one's taste of course...

Same here, I've owned my m40x since Jan. 2015, 8+ years. Since then I've bought and still own a number of closed back and open back headphones. I replaced the earpads with a pair of Yaxi pads, same size but much more comfortable than stock pads. The bottom of the headband is completely worn...

What is that that your headphones are on.? Where did you get it?

I would definitely consider the philips fidelio x2. They're not the most technical or neutral headphones but they're still enjoyable to listen to, especially at the price they go for these days. They're open back so they let external sounds in and they leak sound out. But for under $500 you...

Yea it's hard to believe that that much bass boost would sound good on any headphone.

Yea, I'm pretty sure that's it. At the bottom of the screen there's a box to write reply and under that box it says post reply. Thanks for your help

Thanks, I have another question. Does the btr5 have a battery level indication on the btr5 itself or just in the app? Any indication on the btr5 that the battery is close to running out?

I listened to that track at a volume level as loud as I would ever listen and no cracking sound. Let us know how you make out on that track with your new pair.

I wouldn't say the akg k371 has weak bass. I own audio technica m40x, creative aurvana live se (cal se), bose quiet comfort qc35ii and senn. momentum3 wireless and they all have, to a greater or lesser extent, elevated bass; which I like. Compared to these headphones the k371, which I also own...

Great advice.

It won't be 400hz and 3.5khz exactly. From 400hz and below the frequencies will taper off gradually. From 3.5khz and above the frequencies will also taper off gradually.

Very detailed breakdown. Excellent work.

Maybe you can clear something up for me. I bought the dt990 used a number of years ago from ebay. They didn't come in the original box and the seller description never said whether they were the premium or the pro version; although imprinted on the back of the ear cups it says dt990. I assumed...

I agree with dunring something's not right. You shouldn't have to use high gain at 85% volume, even if you like to listen really loud.

For me frequency response i.e tonal balance is just as important as any other parameter. I have an hd6xx and an audeze lcd2c planar magnetic headphone and their tonal balances are very different. The hd6xx has a more elevated upper bass and a more accurate midrange. Although the lcd2c has more...

My dt990 have silver gray plating on the back of the headphones like the dt880. No indication of ohms on the rubber plug. I assume they're the 600 ohm premium.

Got the qc35ii about 2 weeks ago. About six weeks previous to that I bought the senn. Momentum3 wireless. I've always wanted a pair of qc35ii and I saw a fantastic price for a manufacturer refurbished pair, so I bought them. If I didn't know otherwise I would have thought they were brand new...

I vote for the hd 650/6×× although they are a bit on the dark side when it comes to treble. You don't need a tube amp to benefit from their tonal balance. The lcd2c are also more mid ranged focused, they have lean, clean ( no distortion) extended bass. To my ears they're not as warm sounding as...

Hi, my question is about the m3wireless. Can they be paired to two devices at the same time, without the smart control app? Can momentum 3 connect to more than 1 device without the smart control app?

I did a google search and got an answer to my own question. Yes when using the usbc cable after disabling wireless Bluetooth mode, the signal coming from the device's usbc port is digital and there is an internal dac in the headphones that converts the signal to analog.

You can deactivate the Bluetooth wireless mode then use the usbc to usbc cable. To do this you fold the headphones up, then press and hold the voice assistant button on the bottom of the headphones. Keep holding the button in, as you slowly unfold them. After 4 seconds the wireless Bluetooth...
