Originally posted by bdormer You, sir, know nothing about me, my thinking skills, what I do and don't believe or what I will and won't accept. You ASSUME, based on a few lines of text. Where's your critical thinking? As for asking questions - I did. |
Originally posted by sacd lover Nope its not. Your asserting there is no break in. |

Originally posted by sacd lover I dont think everyone is fully aware of his tactics, especially new members. But if he is finally called upon to provide and reciprocate proof,.... Provide some proof Mike. Lets see some of your proof burn in doesnt exist. I for one wont accept less or you will be ignored in the future. |
Originally posted by bdormer I hereby nominate Mr. Scarpitti to be the official Head-Fi Investigator in Charge on the subject of headphone burn-in. Since he is so interested in this subject that he can't stop himself from incessant posting - he will now have the chance to prove or disprove his point. If he can't/won't do it - then he has no place making the comments he has been. Meanwhile, I'm putting him in my ignore list. |
Originally posted by Geek Mike, Why are you trolling on a topic inquiring about the most effective way to burn-in a pair of headphones? If you don't think burn-in makes a difference, then don't post. Just as if you don't think cables make a difference, you don't post in the cables forum about cable burn in techniques, or if you think better CD players make any difference, you don't post about better CD players. Use some common sense. This guy asked a simple question and the answer doesnt have to involve flame wars. Shouldn't moderators be banning trolls? Cheers, Geek |
Originally posted by sacd lover I have another sennheiser hd650 that was new and unused until today. I had not had a chance to hear it. I compared it to my first hd650 (150+ hours est) using an identical setup. Its not a huge difference but I could pick out which one was which without looking. I could plainly hear a difference and I am not that familiar with either of these pair of hd650's yet. This is hardly conclusive but its more direct evidence than the skeptics have given to this point. I want to add that its not just up to the believers to prove their point. I DONT CARE WHO BELIEVES WHAT, but If I cant prove something, that doesnt necessarily mean the opposite is true. Those who disagree need to site evidence as well. What proof is there products, like headphones in this case, dont break in? At best the answer will likely remain WHO KNOWS. |
Originally posted by hop ham word geek. mike, your posts are hurting my eyes (so why don't i stop reading right?, yeah, done). you seem very passionate on this subject. perhaps you should start a new thread with your inquiries. i don't believe this thread was started with any intention to start up flaming debates on the subject at hand, but rather explore techniques that were useful to some. getting back to the topic...i usually just run my new headphones for a couple days straight playing basically anything. i will listen to them while burning in so i can enjoy them. i play the phones at about listening volume, maybe a little higher. |
