    What open-over ear headphones do you all use? and why?

    my first pair of 'real' headphones were Senn 380 Pros. at first i thought they were great, but maybe it was because i hadn't tried any other headphones yet.   when i made the jump to Beyer DT770s, i realized i loved the 'fun' sound stage on headphones rather than the neutral sound stage of...

    [New] Philips Fidelio X1

    so just got these not too long ago, and i attached my modmic to the mesh. however, it seems as though either the mesh or whatever is right behind the mesh is magnetic, because instead of having to use the adhesive clasp it just stuck on there magnetically.    i just want to be sure im not...

    What open-over ear headphones do you all use? and why?

      i honestly believe that because they're open and its soundstage, the slight 'U' shape doesn't hurt the vocals at all. that being said, if acoustic music is mostly what you listen to, i would probably look at more neutral headphones, like the senn 598s.    the fidelio x1's are more of a...

    What open-over ear headphones do you all use? and why?

    just got the Fidelio X1's.   purposely went for these because of their sound stage being similar to the DT770s. slight U shape, solid tight bass, great highs and slightly recessed mids. they sound great, especially through my modi/magni.

    [New] Philips Fidelio X1

    so i've read that the stock cable should be replaced, but what if i was using the modi/magni ? i ask because i need the 6.3mm adapter and i'm having trouble finding a 3.5mm to 6.3mm cable anywhere to replace the stock cable.   anyone using the stock cable with a dac/amp ?

    if i'm using the modi/magni, would DT770 250ohm sound better than DT770 32 ohm headphones?

    with that being said, is it even worth using the modi/magni with a 32ohm pair of headphones? i don't hear too much of a difference using the schiit combo.

    i have a pair of DT770 32 ohm pros but with the modi/magni i can't hear too much of a difference. just wondering if i should return my 32ohm pair and get something with higher impedance. thanks in advance.

    amp and/or DAC for DT770 Pro (32 ohm) ?

    i'm interested in buying an amp/DAC for my DT770s, used mostly for desktop use.   i've read that portable amps can be great, but i've also read that sometimes simply buying a quality sound card is great too.   any suggestions would be great, thanks!

    [GUIDE] Sonic Differences Between DT770-DT990 Models & More

    i can attest to the DT770 32 ohm's bass. it's not overpowering at all. in fact, i like to think it's perfectly balanced, moreso than most closed cans.

    Sennheiser HD 598 Impressions Thread

    is there a video somewhere with someone actually using these? i would like to see/hear how much they leak at certain volumes. i tried searching but couldn't find anything.

      would the K550s be a significant upgrade from HD 380s?

    Sennheiser HD 598 Impressions Thread

    i was wondering if these might be worth the buy if i already own HD 380s.   the reason i ask is because i would like a wider sound stage, especially for gaming, but im concerned about the openness and sound leak. i use headphones late at night often while my wife's asleep, so this could be an...
