Lol the drivers look like what inside the Apple earbuds. I liked the dynamic and tangible feel of my earbuds so searched about it extensively in the past

Love my hd6xx and hd800s design and sound. Though I also always love the focal headphones design and sound, their weight and build quality are worrisome to me. Hope this new Axel’s headphone is released soon because the drivers looks very alike to a baby of Focal and Sennheiser ones.

I could not like the 650 on any solid-stated amplifiers until I got a tube amp lol . If you cannot get a tube amp you better buy another headphone that will be almost much better than your 6xx . This was my experience

omg cars and watchs 😂 My most expensive headphone is this hd800s and it is in some price basket of some apple watch versions I think. And I don’t know if the most hi-end version of aw can be used as long as my cheap hd6xx. My lcd2 died a month ago for no reason while Audeze cable and pads have...

Thank you for your info. My pads on my hd6xx are still fine too. And it is not only about the material, it is also many 3rd party pads for hd800s have flat shape (while the genuine ones are bell-shaped). Ime leather pads often have echo effects that I feel anxious to listen to. But yeah leather...

Tks for your reply. Pardons my arrogance but do you mean oem as genuine Sennheiser parts? I only use my one-year-old hd800s a few hours a week and after my grief with some big headphone brands built quality I hoped I can use the pads much longer :( This hobby is quite time and money consuming...

Hello guys, So today this happened when I cleaned my Hd800s pads . The tinny flaked black dots. I want to ask if anyone has seen something like that? I also worry if I inhale it and it come into my lungs lol

May i ask why do you prefer the piety with hd8000 planar headphone? Tks

Nice pic but clean is the last word I can think of when thinking of my two v1 and v2 modi multibit lol

I took this 2 days ago. Too much gold in this pic and I love it lol

By describing “less rounded off”, did you mean the MJ3 is less balanced than the Mini? I searched google for round sound and it showed: A pleasingly balanced sound (having a pleasing mixture of high frequency to low-frequency).

hats off to the op. My beloved lcd2 rev2’s right driver just died yesterday. I don’t understand why it happens to my headphone because I have always babied it. And it happened after the lcd2 being for months hanging unused. I am so frustrated. I replaced stock pads and cables many times due to...

Hello guys, My LCD-2 rev2 prefaz's right driver died today after a long time left unused. I am so disappointed. I have always cosseted my headphone through the years though the pads and stock cable have kept falling apart. In recent years I have realized that if my LCD2 was not paired with the...

Did you mean you preferred your old modi multibit v2 to the Zen dac sig?

Many of my friends said the original diablo sounded clean, powerful but dry, insipid and flat. The zen sig and the idsd sig (blue one) give a more substance and layer into the sound

Pure tube amp

Hd800s. Actually even my hd650 and my LCD2 sound ok with my Piety but they are just not comparable to my hd800s. The hd650 on my crack is a different story though

Never heard 2 dacs from 2 models (even with the same manufacture) to sound the same. Even they are used with the same dac chips. I recommend used the Jot with a dac with a good depth and open sounding because the Jot sound claustrophobic and flat to my ears. In my case: every dacs from Ifi are...

What about the Vali making you prefer it to the Jr? Why don’t you put the Bottlehead Crack in your list? Tks

Can you please make short impressions on each of them ? Tks

Yes I simply cannot use my hd800s and my LCD2 anymore after getting my Crack tube-amp to pair with my hd650. If there is a magic in real life that I have ever witnessed I can say it is the transformation of a cheap headphone that is my hd650 becoming when pairing with a good tube-amp..

After using dozen of dacs I decide to prefer Ifi dac’s bit perfect sound sign. But not with their gto fw lol . I am not a very nick picking person but I know I hate sleepy or harsh or wall of sound or over-punchy sounding dacs that is what I experienced with some Schiit’s dacs. I also prefer...

I cannot find anything that is different to my normal signature Zen can. Except mine came with an iPowerX

May I ask the name of the ss amp you sent back?
