EQ and $ are irrelevant.

right lol with unlimited cash you don't need eq, with unlimited EQ I guess you don't need a lot of cash ;3 I think they two are inverses
With unlimited cash you could have a headphone for every song yes but an unlimited EQ wuldn't make everything sound good, you'd still be limited by the headphones themselves. You can't EQ an ATH-M50 to sound like an HD-800 and you definitely can't make an MDR-7506 sound like an LD2.
it was a joke, if you read through this thread, I made that point a little earlier ^^ but thanks for reinforcing it
I did read through this thread i just seldom pay attention to which name says what, my bad buddy
I just wanted to drop by and say while I don't own these personally, I always find myself once in awhile asking my friend to borrow his pair for a week or so (I'm wearing them right now hahaha). I dunno what it is but they just have this very unique sound I haven't heard in a headphone before. They just have their own fun presentation of things and it doesn't work right for a decent chunk of my library but man when it gets it right, it gets it right. Just makes me want to do all sorts of chair dancing you know! I think I just have made up my mind and will need to buy my own pair.
Oh and just to add my two cents to whatever EQ conversation has been going on in this thread. I personally come about my headphone journey as the embodiment of the title "collector". And I don't mean that to demean others and say they are lesser in their appreciation or anything, I can't stand people who try to impose their ideas on how a hobby should be onto others. But I personally just really appreciate each headphone and it's own individual identity, with it's own design and particular sound signature. So while EQ'd my M50's in the past to really just increase bass once in awhile, that is about the most I think I could do. If a headphone needs EQ to sound a particular way, I just personally don't care for it. I think that's why I envision myself owning a lot of headphones. I just like to appreciate particular presentations of sound. It doesn't have to be perfect necessarily, just enjoyable.
So to just kinda wrap up, I don't really like EQing because I get a headphone to appreciate the way IT in particular sounds. I'm not out to try and fix it. This is definitely not an idea that appeals to most and I find that just fine. Meanwhile, I will enjoy my Q701 once in awhile for what it brings to the table but my primary go to headphone is the HD650 and my best the LCD-2
Which pads under 30$ isolate and fit the best ?
