Besides the fact that the soloing is out of this world, it's pretty sad too.  

@cnhardwick, I have the same issue, i'm curious wheiter there's a cure for this. I just got the m6 and I am running some pink- and whitenoise through them. First impressions were not very good: Muffled sound and the bass to dominant within the soundspectrum. I've never been a believer of...

What about these guys? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PviFr2niLs&feature=related. Are you familiar with the genre Happy Hardcore? If not, you should really explore that. Btw this is not today's real hardcore, the dance-genre I mean. This...

I somehow can't listen to Muse because of the inhaling of Matt Bellamy. I do like Yorke's voice on the other hand. To me he sounds more sincere. 

The first part is a real good reference point for the low frequencies imo. I do think that there's a bit of distortion but it's still an excellent way to check out how your system handles the heavy-bass.   Also check out the at 6:00-6:20 bit. Is it me or is it heavier, but at the same time...

Recommendations regarding high quality acoustic recordings and awesome female singers:   Eva Cassidy - Live At Blues Alley Alison Krauss & Union State - Live  

Duke Ellington - Blues in Orbit (MFSL).  Quite unbelievable for such an old recording IMO.   Everything is there: The highs, mids, lows en very nice soundstage.

PC -> uDac -> Dual CV120 (Vintage Hifi-amplifier)    The Dual is feeding my HD 650 surprisingly well, better then my Hifiman EF2 for sure.

  Sorry for the bump of an old thread. I just love my new Winamp skin!

I use this combination. I'm very pleased with it. I use the Nuforce uDac instead of the standard EF2 DAC though. The sound for me is definitely not dark and veiled. I don't have another desktop headphone amp to compare it with but I feel the EF2 is capable of driving the HD 650 well...

This is my headphone stand. One of my rare creative outbursts. Attachment 24250 It's made from this: Attachment 24251 I still have the glass but I don't drink the beer as often as I used to BTW: It's a Belgium pale ale called Pauwels Kwak.

Black! Quite tastefull colour combination IMO. A nice white shirt would also be a safe choice.

Jazzy Christmas with Telarc

I had these coloured pads on my hd-25. There's noticable less isolation compared to the sennheiser replacing velour pads. The inner material is different. Instalation was also more difficult compared to the sennheiser velours which seem to be build like the original pleather one's...
