Philips X2HR for 78 euros on amazon France: https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B01N5VHLUG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_i_dl_026HZCN0G20EZW7ZR9Y3?tag=1

Philips Fidelio X3 for 151.31 euros + shipping and Sennheiser HD 599 for 98.63 + shipping both from amazon Spain, great prices in my opinion. https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B0884XTXS8/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_1?smid=A1AT7YVPFBWXBL&psc=1...

True, the good thing about it was that you know the exact price of what you are paying without any surprises. But from what I've read in their annoucement is that from next year they will also experiment an another method, a pre-paid vat to EU countries trying to keep prices as current EU...

Oh I see, thank you!

Great price, too bad the EU warehouse is closing though. Are you sure about that? where have you read this news?

No problem! If you want a portable can that you want to use around the house than yeah you should also consider the Sennheiser HD569. But if you want headphones to use outside on the go then in my opinion the Sonys are the better choice.

I don't know about the Sennheiser HD569 but I know that the Sonys are very easy to drive and I consider them a fun set of cans to listen to on the go. I don't know where you are from, but for example you can get them at around 140 euros from Amazon Italy warehouse in "Like new" condition...

The Sony Mdr-1A were quite comfortable actually, just wished the pads were a bit bigger(a problem only for those who have big ears) and sometimes I did feel that my ears were a bit soar from touching the inside of the cups but that rarely happened, maybe after very long sessions. I've read that...

I don't have these headphones so I can't help you much, but most of your questions have been answered in the previous pages in this thread. From what I recall, yes the pads are replaceable and you might have a slight problem if you have big ears like me (I had the mdr-1a). Some said that the...

Yeah me too, that's why I've never had a pair of wireless headphones but I can see why someone would choose one for even better portability.

Yes the Beoplay H6 is a wired headphones. I've never had wireless headphones but I suppose they can be more comfortable while moving around for portable headphones

If they do sound similar then I might just stick with the Beoplay H6, I actually got them on sale from amazon for 169 euros so that's a good price I suppose. I really liked the 1As, they served me well as portable headphones, only thing I wished they had tighter bass and a bit bigger earpads...

Do you have the Beoplay H6? if so how do they compare with these? what is your personal preference? I had the 1As and lost them so instead of getting a new pair I said I'd wait for the new ones but in the meantime I got a pair of Beoplay H6 2nd gen from amazon which means it's either the 1AM2...

Thank you for the reply! I'll try this one then.

The cable I have received with the headphones are faulty and I'm looking for an economic solution for the moment, do you guys know if these would work fine? if not, can you point me to what would work, thank you https://www.ebay.com/itm/272952434451

If anyone interested Amazon germany has discounts on B&O headphones until midnight, I got the H6 2nd generation for 169 euros.

I actually before losing the headphones I read some post of yours about the meze 99 pads and since I was having problems with the stock pads I thought about changing them. We'll see how it goes with the new headphones and will change them with either the ATH-MSR7 or Meze 99, thank you!

I got these and have them for over a week, I do like them but the problem is that the cable that came with the headphones is faulty, where if I move my head around the audio disappears from the right driver. Informed Monoprice about that and still waiting for a reply, problem is I live in...

Thank you for the info! it's nice to know that the bass did improve and overall sound as well. As for the earpads I'll try to live with it as long as they are comfy

Found out about these because I had the mdr-1A and just lost them while travelling so wanted to get a new pair but found these and will wait to see how they compare. I really loved the mdr-1A but I hope to improve 2 things, first a tighter bass and second slightly bigger earpads (my ears are a...

Makes sense!

Thanks for you input!

Thank you for your reply! I just wanted to know to see if you had other DACs to which you were able to compare because I'm thinking about buying one but not sure if that would improve my setup.

Can I ask you which DAC you were using before the Modi multibit?

Yes that's why I'm skeptical about replacing the DAC since it may not make a big difference. I'm not an expert at all as I'm new to all of this, I just want an on a budget setup that makes me enjoy my music. Thank you for the advice.
