    Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones Part II

    Played my girlfriend Cynic's "Re-Traced EP" (which is some of the best music to test headphones to in my opinion) on my small rig of a pair of HD600s plugged into a Schiit Magni/Modi combo and it blew her mind. She wouldn't stop listening and completely loved them. I have overall had fairly...

    HD 598 vs HD 600 (which has more detail)

    I would agree. I think one of the things that make the HD600 such a killer headphone is that you can honestly make them sound great with pretty much anything. If you want more or less punch out of them, they respond with amazing accuracy to EQing and they're full of energy so I wouldn't say they...

    Sennheiser HD 600 Impressions Thread

    I haven't read the whole thread haha. I was just stating my overbearing affection for the HD600s :)

    Sennheiser HD 600 Impressions Thread

    I mean I didn't say that they are demanding of it as much as some, but I don't like how they sound un-amped very much at all personally. The bass response dies for one, and that's the most major thing but when I say it dies it DIES and that makes them pretty much un-listenable for me.

    Sennheiser HD 600 Impressions Thread

    The HD-600s are in my opinion, the best headphones you can buy for the price. Put them through a nice audio rig, and you'll likely never feel the need to go any higher. They mark the point at which audiophilism goes from investments in quality into money sucking addiction for diminishing...

    The hate on beats, why?

    the new solos actually did change their sound. It's not as drastic of an improvement as the studios, but it's certainly nice. I just hate the way the new studios look... SO much... The Solo HD however, is a very pretty headphone IMO, even if they don't really sound exceptional in any way, and...

    Finally taking the plunge...

    Yeah the V-Moda ones aren't really known for being super comfortable. They're actually known to have the problem that you had with the Momentum of not fitting all the way around the ear, but for way more people.

    HD 598 vs HD 600 (which has more detail)

    That's too bad. Idk what to tell you, they are kind of hard to find anywhere but online. I just did a lot of research first and the HD600 ended up being exactly what i was looking for

    Headphones for Classical music

    I honestly just think the HD600s are some of the best headphones for any genre of music I've ever used. They're probably my favorite headphone made under 1000 dollars, but that's just me and I certainly haven't tried them all.

    Headphones for Classical music

    I would HIGHLY recommend the Beyer DT880s for classical. They have a very nice bright and analytically sound that lends itself well to classical, especially through the Schiit Audio Valhalla, but any good amp will do. Some people say the Sennheiser HD598, but I personally think they sound boring...

    HD 598 vs HD 600 (which has more detail)

    I would say so personally, but I'm kind of an HD600 fanboy. I think they sound better in every way to my ears, but at the end of the day audio is subjective. I recommend you find a way to try both out in person. That's the only way to really know what you want.

    HD 598 vs HD 600 (which has more detail)

    No, see, the mistake you're making is that you're a normal human being who posts what he wants to post ON HIS OWN THREAD ON AN INTERNET FORUM ABOUT HEADPHONES, as opposed to whatever this guy is trying to be.

    Oh, also "don't curse with **** symbols" are you kidding me? I don't think even my great grandmother would be that prudish.

    HD 598 vs HD 600 (which has more detail)

    Why do you care what he posts? Like seriously, firstly it's his own thread, and second it's an INTERNET FORUM ABOUT HEADPHONES. If you care enough about someone's "odd responses" on an internet forum about headphones enough to "bust" them on it that's honestly just sad.
