AXEL GRELL HEADPHONE
On paper at least this looks great value in a sea of some (imho) stupidly overpriced HP's. The proof is, as always, in hearing it of course.- drummerman1

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
I have three amplifiers with Headphone stages ... Audiolab, Cyrus and Arcam. None drive my HP's with more conviction, solidity and refinement than the Mojo 2. They may go ultimately louder (I wouldn't know) but I never reached the Chord's highest volume setting, not even close, even with the...- drummerman1

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
A likely outcome if you don't know what to listen out for. 'Air', reverb and (ultimate) bass quality can give it away. I remember the gadget show on the Beeb doing a blind test of High Res vs MP3 and the outcome was that the majority preferred the lower bit rate ... . It seemed 'nicer'...- drummerman1

AXEL GRELL HEADPHONE
Surely one of the best comments here ... . As with everything moderately technical, be that cars, bikes, Hifi and Headfi ... its (mostly) made to appeal to the male ego and priced accordingly.- drummerman1

The bass of the HD650 - what a strange thing
Ah, the old accuracy, thing. Me sometimes think the best we can hope for are renditions that we think sound close to the real thing. Hell, I have attended live music in not exactly audiophile surroundings were I hoped it wouldn't sound as bad as home.- drummerman1

Tidal ... I like you
Well, my Tidal Hifi Plus subscription renews tomorrow still at the old £19.99 price. The new, lower cost combined tier starts on the 10th April. I have downgraded my subscription today and will upgrade (or get the benefit) of the lower cost one in a few days. I would do the same if yours renews...- drummerman1

Which one is the winner DT1990 or Sundara
With the Mojo you are set. The EQ is superb even though I calibrate my HP's in Roon for simplicity. I think the Sundara is superb for the money and with the Chord you can make it sound like you want. I never had a problem, build is solid but if I had to criticise something it's the...- drummerman1

Which one is the winner DT1990 or Sundara
I have to say that whilst a flat soundstage is sometimes said to be a planar thing ... (flat diaphragm ... flat soundstage ... ?) I have not found the Sundara lacking in soundstage depth. If a recording has that attribute, the Sundara seems to do it as well as my other, admittedly humble...- drummerman1

Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread
Yes. The new Pro Macbooks, M1 Pro and forward, have improved Headphone stages. Apple did quite a bit to improve them. https://support.apple.com/en-gb/108351 When I thought my Chord Mojo 2 gave it's spoon up (it didn't, I was just a complete dumbass) I reverted back to the MB M2 Pro for a day...- drummerman1

Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements
Thank you. My Mojo2 does not have balanced so it probably won't be worth buying one of those. To be honest, I love it as is. Now I did my mod bass is super deep and with lovely control and slam plus I got the rest dialled in perfectly with minor Roon EQ. A fantastic little headphone for next to...- drummerman1

What Headphones & Speakers Have Earned That Studio Monitor Name ???
I guess your Yammies and Fostex probably fall somewhere within the Studio definition as do a whole host of Beyers or something like an HD600/650 even though they were not originally intended for that use. My 2 c's :wink:- drummerman1

Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements
Ok, I can hear differences between the mesh densities and also whether I take the interior foam out of the cups or not. Now, I have no way of measuring anything nor can I do an AB blind in short enough succession to adequately describe what I am hearing. The 30 seconds or one minute to change...- drummerman1
