    For sale this beautiful HD600 in excellent condition. The headband flattened with time but otherwise it’s absolutely fine, it has been taken good care of - just check the pics. The earpads are still ok and it sounds… as a marble Sennheiser HD600 must sound:) . This thread might be interesting...

    Headphones that sound similar to speakers (sound signature)

    I was wondering whether a parallel « headphones - speakers » has already been tried on head-fi. I am talking sound signatures. I mean, something along the line « this headphone sounds like/close to these speakers ». Not something stressing the difference between listening through headphones...

    For sale this superb sounding AKG K340. It has that specific magical mellowness… it’s the McIntosh of the headphones world. If you have already tried a K340 then you know what I’m talking about :). IMHO this gem is at the same level - if not higher - with many shiny, fashionable, bling-bling...

    Why does a signal coming from a smartphone jack output sound better when amplified through a portable amp? 🤔

    Ah, now I understand better what you meant. Thanks for elaborating for a slow head-fier 🙂. Yes, it makes sense to me.

    Why does a signal coming from a smartphone jack output sound better when amplified through a portable amp? 🤔

    Not sure at all. Maybe it’s just a placebo effect. It would be logical. However, feeding youtube from an iPhone 6 to a Bowers & Wilkins P9 via a small Douk amp I just bought from aliexpress sounded (I think! 😉) much better (not louder!) than without the amp. And I just can’t understand why 😁😁😁

    Why does a signal coming from a smartphone jack output sound better when amplified through a portable amp? 🤔

    That’s my point. The smartphone feeds a poor quality signal to the amp (which means that the amp receives a poor quality signal). How can an amp « improve » it? An amp can deliver a good signal to headphones IF it’s fed with a good signal itself. This is possible through a line level input...

    Why does a signal coming from a smartphone jack output sound better when amplified through a portable amp? 🤔

    No DAC involved. All analog. headphone analog output of a smartphone -> headphone amp (analog input) -> headphones and it gives BETTER sonic results than: headphone analog output of a smartphone -> headphones Why? 🤔

    Why does a signal coming from a smartphone jack output sound better when amplified through a portable amp? 🤔

    Can anybody explain me the following, please? The logic says that a poor quality audio signal, when amplified, will remain of poor quality. The signal coming from a jack output of a smartphone is of relatively poor quality. I mean, collecting the audio signal from the headphone output of a...
