    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    I've been using the Sennheiser Headphone Holder as well, and as already mentioned, it is simple, cheap and unobtrusive. Works great with all my headphones, even the heavier LCD-2.

    NAD Viso HP50 : Another superb headphone from Paul Barton?

    I have been using a cheap 6ft extension cable with the HP50 cable and have noticed no issues or differences in sound quality. I thought about ordering a better quality single cable so I dont have to use an extension but so far I'm in no rush to do so.

    NAD Viso HP50 : Another superb headphone from Paul Barton?

    They seem to be the same cables except for the microphone cable being shorter. Looking at the specs on the v-moda site and comparison chart, both cables have the same headphone compatibility.

    NAD Viso HP50 : Another superb headphone from Paul Barton?

    Yes, totally agree about the short flimsy cable included with a $300 headphone from a high-end company like NAD. Even though these seem to be advertised as mobile/portable headphones it would've been nice to have a longer and more substantial cable included for home use.   I believe the V-Moda...

    Review: NAD Viso HP50

    Ah, now that makes more sense! I remember that Fidelio X1 Amazon 50% off sale but didn't jump on it. I didn't know much about them and didn't want another open-back headphone.   Regarding the NAD HP50's; I finally purchased a pair a few weeks ago after reading so much about them. I was looking...

    Review: NAD Viso HP50

    When was Amazon selling the HP50's for $150? I don't see any history of them ever selling at that low of a price according to camelcamelcamel or slickdeals.

    NAD Viso HP50 : Another superb headphone from Paul Barton?

    Hello everyone. I am interested in trying a closed neutral headphone and both these NAD HP50 and the Focal Spirit Pros are on my radar. I'm looking for any opinions or personal experiences on how these might compare with the Audeze LCD-2 and Sennheiser HD650 pertaining to neutrality and...

    Grado Fan Club!

    Hello Fan Club!   I've owned the regular SR60's for several years now (they were my first decent headphones) but am eagerly awaiting delivery on some new 225i's I recently purchased at a discount.  Having never heard another Grado model before, I'm definitely curious to how the 225i's will...

    Your first headphones?

    My father's old Koss Stereophones plugged into the headphone jack of a Pioneer 4 channel stereo receiver from the 1970's. As a teenager, I used to use his older stereo components found in the basement. The headphones are brown with dried out foam ear pads. I actually still have them. I don't...

    Audeze LCD-2 Impressions Thread

    I have been using my Rev2 LCD-2's for the past year via XLR>Banana plug adapter with a Yamaha home theater receiver and more recently a Harman Kardon receiver with great results. Both are several years old that I had on hand after upgrading my main home theater receiver. I figured to save some...

    What headphones are you currently rocking?

    Currently back to the Audeze LCD-2 after using the HD650 for the last 6 months. I kind of went backwards though by purchasing the LCD-2 first, about a year ago, then jumping on a Sennheiser sale several months later to finally acquire the 650's. I've only used the HD650 driven by a Little Dot...
