Massdrop username: virusvoodoo I'd like to see: 1. Sennheiser HD800 2. Schiit Mjolnir 2 3. Schiit Gungnir

  Is that a badminton or squash racket?

has anyone tried to hand-wash or machine-wash these before?  I wonder if doing so would ruin them.    Post the results if you have done this with the HD6x0 earpads.

a question for those who have both:   how does the newer HD650 (metal/silver mesh) compared to the newer HD600 (metal/silver mesh)? 

thanks for the quick response! i just bought two lm4562 op-amps and found a bit of difference between the LM4562 and stock op-amp's and I like it! As you said, it offers more clarity and seems to be a little bit more upfront. bass quality is better (maybe due to the improve clarity?) and...

hi, i know this thread is a little old but can you guys post your impressions of the different op-amp's (lm4562, opa627, etc...) when comparing to the stock ones? thanks, -v

DT880's are too bassy for you? hmm, that's a first! i've always read that they are bass-light almost like the K701's but it could be your source/amp & music genres. anyhow, if DT880 are too bassy for u then the D5000's wouldn't work since they have crazy amount of bass, often too much and flabby...

can't vote...haven't got the chance to demo/hear any of these =(

i have both and the HD600's as well. i would choose the HD650's (HD600 if it is an option) as it is more balanced and more natural sounding thus you can wear for an extended period of time. The stock D5000 is too bass-heavy (& sloppy) and there may be a little bit of resonance if you ask...

what is this PSU upgrade you are talking about, mrarroyo? is it external or an internal mod? I have an stock X-Can V3 upgraded to some amperex tubes so does the PF kid and the PSU upgrade apply to what I have?

It's hard to compare the two as they are fairly different, one is closed while the other is opened. I have only owned the D5000's for a week while I have owned the HD650's for the last three year. But as of this moment, I will say that the HD650's are more natural and balanced (something that I...
