Ha! Welcome back Dave.
How do these compare to AKG K81DJ?
When you gonna be back in the states eke.
You hear how Snoop Dogg is now Snoop Lion. Lol! He is Bob Marley Reincarnate. Lol!
DAMN IT!!! the dirt cheap 40s are a clever trap from JVC. Its the gateway to audio hell. LoL
The HA-S400 use a smaller 30mm Carbon Nanotube driver. It wouldn't surprise me if those sound every bit as good as these HA-S500..I will guess a bit lesser bass response from them as they are smaller drivers. But otherwise those should sound very similar to the HA-S500.
Upon careful inspection. There is no reason why I can't throw on a bigger set of pads on these HA-S500 to make them fully circum aural. Will have to experiment with maybe the M50 pads..I have some Pioneer velour pads I can throw on here too will report back soon.
These are the new and improved versions of the HA-S600 for certain. The mid bass hump on the HA-S600 prevents them from greatness. These however fix that issue and not only that but are overall much better tuned out of the box. I can only imagine just how much better these will sound with some solid burn in. I am thinking minimum 100- 150 hours. We will see. I will post more impressions as they burn in. Will try some other pads too. The pads on these are not uncomfy in any way because of the light clamp. But experimentation with other pads should prove some interesting results.
