Will Sennheiser create a totally exciting new headphone design ever again? it seems for the last decade they are only a tuning company. I still love their stuff though.
At this point, I don't mind if they stick to the hd600 chassis, and continually tune it or just place new drivers which are interchangeable. That will only make the line more legendary.
Perhaps if they made a sidegrade to the hd58x (entry-mid) level, with a larger speaker unit (50-60mm) as a "fun" alternative
In a perfect world, I wish every company would have a dual driver in their lineup with the dedicated "subwoofer" but as a "fun headphone"
JVC did it with the sz1000/2000, but it was entry level. There just isn't a market for it as people want one driver to "do it all"
But nowadays, its not safe to tread such paths. JVC put a 30mm driver, with seperate dedicated 55mm "subwoofer", and even used advanced damping with brass bits, and micron glass, and they were $99 - $150USD at one point.
So, I would think Sennheiser could make a "dual driver" for the 500-1k market.
But it's not worth their time XD
