Hey thanks for the advice i actually listened to the sennheisers 558 at best buy and i didnt find them too impressive .. I heard good things about the 650 though. You think theres a big jump in sound quality from the 558 to 650?
I wouldn't know, as I am not quite initiated myself. I would assume it would be a notable difference, maybe not extreme. Do bare in mind that they were most likely not amplified or used on a good DAC, and even my "new" grado sr325e are comparatively unimpressive straight out of a standard computer source. I know this from when I listen to music at work. I would say that if you have the money to spring for the 650s then go for it, but I would float around a bit and get some input from someone who has experience with more hardware. Maybe someone will suggest another brand to look at. I would say that you should definitely spend some time with some Grados at some point. I am a very happy owner of what I would consider their solid mid range cans, and I intend to eventually grab a pair of gs1000e or whatever the iteration will be by the time this college student can excuse spending 1000 plus on a pair of cans XD
