    Unveiled: Meet the HD 620S

    I'm personally glad we have companies like Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, etc. that continue making good quality headphones without the exorbitant prices. Prices have gotten crazy over the past 12 years I've been on this website. Another factor people seem to be overlooking is the bar for sound...

    Unveiled: Meet the HD 620S

    That low-mid dip is quite common in closed-backs. Comparing the HD 620S to my DT 770 Pro X will be interesting. Comparing the HD 620S to the DT 700 Pro X will be another interesting comparison.

    Unveiled: Meet the HD 620S

    I got the HD 6xx collection myself, the HD 600, HD 650, HD 660S, and HD 660S2, so definitely an HD 6xx fan as well. Interestingly over the months I gravitated towards the HD 650 being my favorite which was my least favorite of the 4 at first. But which is my favorite can definitely change as I...

    Unveiled: Meet the HD 620S

    Okay, never found the HD 560S too clampy either, but a bit less clamp will definitely make them more comfortable. Looking forward to trying the HD 620S out sometime.

    Unveiled: Meet the HD 620S

    Thank you for answering, seems like it's going to be one of those I have to try out to see if I find them too sweaty or not for me. It being forgiving of oils and moisture may help. Luckily with the HD 5xx style frame the comfort shouldn't be a problem. How's the clamp compared to the HD 560S?

    Unveiled: Meet the HD 620S

    How breathable are the pads on the headphone? I'm sensitive to getting sweaty with closed-backs and pleather/leather pads are very hit or miss for me.

    Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X Anniversary model

    With the right system and with good pad wear, the DT 990 treble is fine, but on the wrong system the DT 990 Pro 250 Ohm was not pleasant, why I said it could be like daggers. Some low output impedance amps worked fine on the DT 990, I found it heavily came down to treble quality of the amp and...

    Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X Anniversary model

    The bass is indeed really nice on the DT 770 Pro X. It's definitely spicy in the treble, but how it presents and handle treble doesn't bother me personally so I leave it as is. It's one of the first trebly headphones I can handle without issue. The DT 1990 was sharper to my ears than the DT 770...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    To be honest I was always critical of the headphone and actually didn't like it much at first, but over time I realize it does seem to be the best of the bunch and growing to love the headphone. I haven't been too impressed with Senns newer products so far, they've had too many drawbacks for me...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    Honestly after owning the HD 650 for many months now and also owning the HD 660S2, HD 660S, and HD 600; I realized this is actually my favorite headphone of the lineup as a whole. There are things I like more about the other 3, but the HD 650 won out in the long haul for me and of the lineup...

    New Sennheiser HD 620S Closed Back

    Hopefully it is, Sennheiser really needs a good solid closed-back option in the mid-tier segment. Only caveat is for me, is I've been having fatigue issues with Senns newer drivers some reason so I'm reserved about that personally, I'm going to let go of the HD 660S2 for that reason which sucks...

    New Sennheiser HD 620S Closed Back

    Yeah seems the driver may be a new variant exclusive to it as it doesn't have the blue voice coil of the HD 660S/700 and the plastic driver brace looks different than the HD 6xx line and even the HD 5xx line. The membrane may also be different. This headphone’s measurements looks like it's more...

    Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread

    Yeah I think they can be ran balanced if it’s using the HD 560S/400 Pro setup which it looks like it does. Definitely keeping an eye on these, recently got a closed back in the form of the DT 770 Pro X LE, while it has a replaceable cable the Beyer can’t be run balanced without modification, but...

    Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread

    Was hoping they would be more microfiber or something. Pleather is quite hit or miss in terms of comfort and breathability, hopefully it’s a breathable pleather so my ears don’t get sweaty. Very curious as well. Oh yeah looking at the picture definitely looks like pleather and the driver is...

    Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread

    Possibly a glitch that announced the name too soon and got taken down. Sounds like it is likely indeed that closed back. Looking like the info I saw on a HD 620 months ago is correct. I’m thinking the driver if the 150 ohm figure is correct is likely based off the HD 660S/700 driver with maybe...
