Has anyone had both?

What would you say is the margin of difference between HD580 and HD600? If you can, give me specific tracks where you can hear something on HD600 that you won't notice on HD580. or vice versa. Preferably, while both are being driven by an amp.

For those who haven't found this feature since the upgrade, it can be found here: https://www.head-fi.org/f/search/35295/?searchform=1 I hope this helps some like me who couldn't locate it.

Could you possibly put this advanced search function as a button on every forum bar? Without looking for this particular thread, I'd never have found that function on the website. Good luck and thanks!

It's very easy to find the price just do a search on google. the condition looks very good to me and the price is very good. If it sounds fine I'd keep it. If you want a new one get a new one.

I just got my hands on a gently used HD580 that is in great shape. I was surprised that my HTC One M9 drove it fine. I plugged it into my Denon 3802 receiver which has very good audio and was a $1800 receiver in its day. It has comparable sound to my Creek Audio 5350SE, but is just a tad...

Actually, Cat 5 cables have been used as DIY speaker cables for DECADES now and not new. You can go check out many hi-fi forums for this. It will improve upon the cheapest of stock cables.

Yes I agree. there are no "advanced" search options. It seems searches cant' be restricted anymore. That makes looking for information tedious on a huge forum site like this.

The update is horrible. It locked my account IMMEDIATELY for typing in a mistaken password. When I tried to reset, it took HOURS before I received a reset email. This does NOT LOOK GOOD.

I recently got this second hand. Plugged it into my desktop PC. It actually sounded WORSE than my stock sound card. And I can't remember what soundcard I used, but it was not an expensive one. Is there anything I can do or need to do to make it work better?   I tried updating driver. says it's...

Did anyone get the DT880 deal on Newegg last week?

No I wear mine with the pads off too. It's a very BIG earbud. My ears begin to hurt if I listen to them for more than 30 minutes. This and the lack of isolation means their usability is very low. The sound is ok, nothing world crazy like so many people are talking about here. It needs to be...

I ran into this on ebay. Has anyone else had experience with these?  Thoughts?

Mods - perhaps make this a sticky? I don't know if there's such a feature here. 

Sweet! You just gave me a BIGGER list of tube amps to go through. Not to mention conventional tube and hybrid pre-amps I'm looking at. :) 

I am just venturing back into audio again after years of absence. I was an audio aficionado of sorts and had multiple sets of speakers, sources, and amps back in the day, including at least one SS and one tube amp always. I currently run my digital music through my Denon HT receiver but misses...

How do these sound compared to Soundmagic E18, another budget earbud?

  Thank you for bringing up Toni Braxton. Fabulous recording. This used to be one of my reference songs for auditioning audio equipment but had totally forgotten about it till just now. Her voice just soars with tube gear. Yes audio nirvana.

  OMG you just gave me a horrible flash back from my days of audio equipment addiction... thousands spent upgrading every link in the chain LOL. That was one of the things. I can't even remember where my clean power supply unit(s) went. It was $1000 plus that thing and now I can't even remember...

Lucky US listeners - DT880 prem 250 ohm ALL BLACK going for $135 with free shipping on Newegg. $300+ in Canada.

to be honest they are not that expensive, and both are highly resalable.  If you are classical musician you know the value of the equipment and what they resell for. Get both, second hand preferrable and they are burned in already for you. See if they synergize well with the equipment you have...

indeed. you are true to your name. xD   He is someone who's tried BOTH headphones, his musical preferences are similar to to that of the requester. He is PAID for what he does. And unlike those in industry who have cozy arrangements with distributors and manufacturers, he doesn't so his...

      I am doing an exhaustive research of headphones and this is on my list of cans to get. Since I don't own either of these two, I will give you a professional reviewer who does. Ken Rockwell said of the two you're looking at: "get the DT 880 for enjoying music, and possibly the K702...

yes that's what I was talking about. haha yeah that's crazy you didn't know. easiest way to look at the offerings out there and get a sense of the people's preferences here. 

How are these with superlux HD668B, or low impedence DT990 premium?  I'm looking to listen to a little tubey sound at a budget price now and then, and would like it to warm up colder analytical sounding phones without losing the bottom end control. I'm hoping these would give me that answer!
