Hi I can't read the thread atm, but what's the consensus on the dongle? Does it have a dac and is it good? I have a 6s right now NOT interested in the 7, but a $9 dongle to improve sound well why not

It just means it has both emphasized bass and emphasized treble

Well it's a $300 headphone but used some people have gotten them for like $150. I got mine for $250 a while back and worth every penny

I had the 518 and I quite liked it but yes the 558/598 are pretty big upgrades in terms of clarity and soundstage, the 518 sounds muffled in comparison despite having the same drivers. And the 600/650 quite a bit better than the 598. And if you do get a good amp/dac setup the 600/650 will surely...

None of those have much bass punch, check out the fidelio x2 they're pretty great sounding

I think the qc25s sound a bit better than the momentum wireless, plus they indeed are still having issues with the Bluetooth. The qc25s are good especially if you'll be traveling. Just b sure to keep batteries ready because they sound awful with noise cancelling off. And I wouldn't too worry...

The nad viso hp50 for closed but since you can swing it might as well get the open senn hd650 for studio use your mixes will thank you, they also have user replaceable parts so they should last forever. I've had mine for 4 years now and still looks new (I did change the pads once)

Get the hyper x cloud

I got the Bose sound link on ear Bluetooth as a xmas present and it's been my daily driver ever since, it is easily and I mean easily the best sounding Bluetooth headphone I've ever heard.

Looks like I'm sold on the xb90s they look quite potent. How's the comfort?

Yes positive

I have the Ivory ones and thinking about getting the SE just because I've always preferred the look of the 558 and now the 598s look even cooler. Kinda scared by all this sounding different stuff tho. Someone send their pair to Tyll to measure!

That looks rather pleasing, you wouldn't happen to have another set of measurements to use as a reference for comparison would ya, oh pretty please

But can you feel it man can you feel it :L3000:

On a scale of one to awesome how good are the Sony xb90, I have the h3 which is ok but the bass is pretty muddy and vocals too recessed plus it's an ergonomic nightmare for walking around. Want something cheaper and more disposable with plenty of good deep bass rumble and also a good soundstage...
