Yeah I've always found the HE-500s to be AWESOME with 70s rock.
Man, should take a listen to the 5LEs!Yeah I've always found the HE-500s to be AWESOME with 70s rock.
How so? Please expand on this.
I feel like warm headphones or at least warmth in the chain via source or amp makes old rock sound great (like a warm vintage amp)...
I dunno, man. I feel like I should send jerg a special Monkey Cable. Might make a difference, if only for the sheerFactor. What d'ya think?
Improved aesthetics, comfort and microphonics, a big yes. SQ, sounds the same.
Usually I don't enjoy audiophile headphones with my older classic rock from the 60's, 70's and 80's but these are very enjoyable with that. What do you think?
For the HE560 testers... in terms of just the sound, which is the better headphone?
The HE500 at $599 (maybe with the new angled pads too) or the HE560 at $899?
From the HE560 impressions so far, maybe the HE500 is just as good but better value, thinking of getting one before they get discontinued.
Anyone able to give an opinion on this at this stage?
...LOL, you're so predictable, which makes it more annoying that you're correct
What Headphone Amp do you think will pair well with the HE-560. Do you think the Schiit Mjolnir will be adequete?....On a budget. Also, do you think they will replace the HE-6 with a 600 anytime soon?
