So yeah, I found out that these two cans are around the same price right now but I dunno which to get, any ideas?
HE-500 has a bit deeper bass and a smaller soundstage which lends itself to more electronic music.
The HD650 is more midrange centered, is smaller, and easier to wear for long hours.
Both are great headphones, but I have listened to both extensively and the HD650 would be my recommendation.
Honestly I dun really like dark sounding and I really dunno why I wish I lover darker sound but it just dun sit well with me, I prefer neutral sound with tight bass and huge sound stage and above all is clarity
Then you'll want to look at the he4. Put a strong amp with it and it will impress. Clarity or brighter hp's is not my thing so I'll step out here. (hd800 cough cough)
Sorry but I don't get this. The he500 has a smaller sound stage than the 650 and is more suited to electronic music?That's not how I hear it. The 650 has a decent sound stage with the he500 being a little wider and deeper. Out of all the hifiman cans it has the darkest treble and deep tight bass. Now the he400 has more visceral impact and is often touted for it's abilities with EDM
