Seeing this thread go from someone unsure of HE-500s to being blown away reassures me in my purchase. I just purchased (Paypal pending) the NFB 11.32 and HE-500s from the forums. Really excited to hop on the bandwagon! 


 
Yeah man, no joke enjoy them. They are amazing.

So far not bad at all. The beyers we're nice. But, the reviews of the weight and crap are way overexaggerated. Good clamp too. Might be too much for some. For me not too bad.

It took a lot of work to get it to this stage though. Out of the box HE500 is pretty underwhelming, not gonna lie.

While i bet the modded pad would improve the he500 And yes i m on the list for the 2nd batch, i would not call the stock he500 underwhelming by any means with the velour pad. IMO, You seem to forget the IMO. :wink:

Bend the head band to adjust the clamping to ur liking. Don't suffer if it's tight.

Isn't there a guide brochure for bending the headband in the headphone package? I thought Hifiman included that in recent shipped units.

Do this. With both hands, lift the cups off your face/ears just a little bit with music playing of course. Pay attention to the bass. You will see why you should not wear the he500 too tight.

i see.... And now i seemed to get a better fit, by barely bending it. Oh my god the sub bass with adventure club. This is amazing.
