Bravo!!!
 
Best work yet...

I am liking these videos very much Jude. Great work!
 
Question.
 
Is the Beyer DT 1350 just a cosmetic change over the T50p?

 
Great work, Jude (and Joe)! May I ask, exactly why would you recommend the HD25s primarily for rock/pop, but the DT1350 for other genres? I'm guessing, the rolled-off treble helps with sibilance on compressed recordings?

I'm pretty sure it's not, but it does use Beyerdynamic's Tesla technology. Hopefully someone can confirm this fact.
 
 

How would you compare the DT1350 to upper tier full size headphones? Is it just a good portable headphone, or is it a good headphone overall, including full-sizes such as the DT880, K701, HD600, HD650, etc?

The Adidas version looks SO FLY
 

First, thanks for the comparison. It is very helpful for many people who does not actually have a first-hand experience with
(multiple) gears
 
 
Judging from all these episodes, I think you might be really interested in taking a trip to Taipei Taiwan and visit few of the most famous local shops,
well I live there so I get the chance to do so.
However, the headphone culture on the other side of the world is so much different. Since there are actually retail shops that are
willing to tear apart a few new cans and let people bring their rigs and try, many people have much different,
( and as far as I know, much accurate)  feedback regarding the same headphone, in this case HD25 and Beyer DT 1350
 
However, portable rig is one rare setup for folks who do this a lot. Also, if all people do is stick to the old brand, things like
Fisher Audio will never show up, just some food for thought out here
 
Here is a few picture of one of the Taiwan's headphone shop: PinCha

A+ on the charisma.

Quick question; how do the HD25-1s compare to Shure 530s?

 

yayyyyyyyyyy!!!!! headphone reveiw! more more more please!

really gald that you did portable headphones reveiw, being looking to get a closed back headphone for a while and this will help. thanks!!

Great comparison...just what I was waiting for.
Thanks for taking the time, Jude!

Wait, just to clarify though, isn't the Adidas HD25-1 ii 300Ω versus the 70Ω all-black HD25?

Nice video, Jude - confident delivery and detailed comparison. 

Thanks for the great review, Jude.  Keep these videos coming! 
 

I've been thinking about comparing the TMA-1 with the HD25, but now this.. Ugh, haha. It is a good thing
Love the videos so far, btw
