I felt the same when I had my K701 even though my equipment differs. The highs wouldn't pierce exactly, but I just felt that there was an uncomfortable, and definitely unnatural, pressure in the air. And as a result, I attributed such to too much treble energy. One of the reasons I've...

yes "Like a Dog Chasing Cars" is a clipping field day...my goodness...how this movie was nominated for Best Sound Mixing, and won Best Sound Editing (over WALL-E) is beyond me...the three times i've seen this movie have all been noise-fests...hollywood politics much?

congrats Tiemen! cant wait to hear your impressions

Python skin-covered HOON headphones likely to get PETA in an uproar haha...wonder how they ssSSssSSssound...and DAMN they cost more than the HD800!!

if you're concerned about the DF's lack of bass then i would recommend against the DT48 while really neutral and detailed, the model i tried, the DT48E that is, had a rather significant bass roll-off starting around 100hz (at least that's what i perceived with my frequency generator) - there...

leeperry yes i've decided to stick with my HD600 and just purchased an aftermarket cable...in terms of mixing - i only do some light classical recording really, and the HD600 is detailed enough and extends low enough (lower than the CD3K it seems based on your description - which IMHO is...

leeperry & andrew_wot - right so i think i will refrain from this purchase and just invest in an aftermarket cable for my HD600 - good to know they don't work well with classical and that those mods aren't really worth the money... thanks all! very helpful!

leeperry - thanks for the impressions! tiemen - haha i just may be in your boat guydebord - great to know...do the leather pads affect the sound? i think i read that they increase the bass? andrew_wot - i do recall reading about the impedance issue...and yes that carbon DT770 looks...

Hi All, I believe in an earlier post, skylab was discussing how the DT770 '05 600 ohm version has balanced bass and has tamed highs, thus more or less balanced well throughout the spectrum. I've always been on the lookout for an ideal closed phone, and was wondering if anyone (searches...

hi all - sorry to bump but... is there a difference between the smurf blue cardas and the gray ones other than the color? thanks!
