Hello,
I am in the process of buying and collecting vintage headphones mainly from the mid to late 1980's to early 1990's such as the AKG K340, AKG K240, Beyerdynamic DT 990, Sennheiser HD 540 Reference II, Sennheiser HD 560 Ovation II, etc.
Has anyone out there ever did a head to head comparison between any of these?
If so, how do they compare in the bass, mids, and highs?
Soundstage and imaging?
Resolution, detail, timbre, etc.?
Finally, what are the best sounding replacement earpads for the vintage Beyerdynamic DT 990, and where can they be obtained?
And, which sounds overall best on the AKG K340's, pleather or velour replacement ear pads?
Thanks for your help, opinions, and information.
