•○• JVC DX1000 | VS | AUDEZE LCD-2 •○•
I have the exact same mod as oqvist since I bought my pair from the guy who modded his headphones :) ( Yes, that means he experimented on my headphones.. ;) ) I bought them modded and was curious hearing them without the damping, so I removed it. I tried to listen to them for...- ChriG

Do you warm up your headphones?
Quote: Never heard of warming up headphones/speakers, don´t really think that it would result in an audible difference anyway. Sometimes I do the amp warm up with other phones than the ones I end up listening to and they sound (as far as I can hear) as they should right away.- ChriG

Do you warm up your headphones?
Quote: Quote: It's not a myth, some manufacturers (Onkyo f.ex.) recommend a warm up time before you begin to listen. Some of the components in a SS amp is designed to work optimal at thier "working teperature", it´s quite obvious that it´s a bad idea to design a amp that...- ChriG

Do you warm up your headphones?
I havent read the whole thread, but I thought that "everyone" knew that amps need to warm up before they sound their best, some amps take longer than others to begin to sound as they should. The difference can be huge. I´ve experienced this with all my amps, hifi-amps and headphone-amps.- ChriG

Rig Improvement Suggestions welcome!
What do you want to improve? More/better bass? More/better treble? More/better mids? Bigger soundstage? There are plenty of threads here for amp recommendations for the HD650 if you want to keep them, try the search function :) Edit: Yes, you will have to get a stronger amp to...- ChriG

Headphones that have more 'BASS' than the Sony XB500?

Do high-end headphones sound more speaker-like than lower-end headphones?
The most "speaker-like" headphone I´ve ever heard is the JVC/Victor DX1000. They have a really speaker-like bass and sound stage, I think thats why I can sit and listen to them for hours and hours and just enjoy the music withour ever tiring :)- ChriG

Buy HD600/650 or not?
The thing with HD600/650 is that they need a better/stonger amp to really shine. I would suggest you look for a pair of Denon AH-D2000 or similar if you don´t have the money to invest in a serious headphone amp.- ChriG

Grado PS500 vs Audeze LCD-2
I think that the PS500 have more bass, while the LCD-2 have more refined and detailed bass. Both has good sub-bass, the LCD-2 might dig a little deeper, but i´m not really sure of that. I don´t think that SanjiWatsuki has ever heard the PS500, it doesn´t have the usual "Grado sound", it...- ChriG

Looking for a powerful phones amp
Quote: Yes, the Lyr should get the job done. A bonus with the Lyr (and many tube amps) is that you can do some tube rolling to change the sound signature of the amp :) / ChriG Edit: Link: https://schiit.com/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=0&products_id=3- ChriG
