  I recognize those cans.. that cable

My HD650's just arrived today! I am so happy to finally be a part of this thread as an owner of these!
 
My first thoughts were that I wouldn't be extremely impressed right-out-of-the-box as I have been with other cans (good example for me were the Beyer DT990 Pro's which I have grown to love), however within minutes of the first song I chose to listen to I knew that these cans were on a completely different level than any other I have personally listened to before.
 
I am a newbie in this world of cans, amps, etc.. so I don't have a high-end arsenal but these to me are easily the best I have heard. I only have the stock cable, running through a FiiO E09K amp, to a creative titanium hd soundcard and it is just amazing - so I cannot even imagine having a good tube amp, upgraded cables (as I have read that a lot of HD650 owner's have done) and break-in time how good these things can be. To me right now, even with my simple setup and them only having about an hour of break-in, am just very impressed.
 
I could write on and on about them, however I'm sure the majority of you in this thread already know.
 
I'm just very happy and glad to be an HD650 owner.

Welcome!

I'd look into an ODAC/Magni to pair with your Asgard.

I wouldn't recommand using the E10 as a stand alone DAC. With the different amps I had on hand, it sounded congested and muffled. With the two options you suggested, I would eliminate the first one, though I have not tried the E10 with the Asgard so bear that in mind.

Or just bite the bullet and go Uberfrost.

I only got a musical fidelity v-can here, so I am not sure if this cheap amp can deal with the hd650s and 600s.

 

[Tuco1965]

I can drive my 600s with a Cmoy, but things get a lot better sounding when using a more substantial amp.

Is Aune T1 + HD650 a good match, or should I buy something better?

On the inside of the thin metal head band, is there a "CE" sticker all the way at the end when you pull the right ear up all the way down?

Damn the hd650's are fantastic no matter which set of cans I've tried I always prefer the senns. Music seems so easy to listen too no fatigue and very comfortable.

I paired mine with the schiit bifrost uber and valhalla and now I know what people mean by tube sound and everything hasn't been broken in yet.

Thanks! Hopefully you can pick up a pair of these cans. Only a few days with them and they get better each time it seems.

Nice! I am hoping to get a tube amp soon to go with mine.

That is quite the awesome setup. For some there is no need to go any further!
