HD595, killed my music. Music became very dull, details, and the fun lost.

For comfort on the AD series. There isn't a lot of foam in the pads. So for some the drivers will sit almost on their ears. Like someone said above, just put more foam in it. Just so it doesn't touch your ears, cause someone else commented that if too far away, the sound changes a lot...

After seeing those pictures. The work condition where those headphones are made. I will never buy Grados

ROFL. This has to be the funniest titles for a thread I've read this entire time. But David I agree. I don't understand the hype for the HD555 or HD595 at all. I haven't listened to the HD650. Don't really want to either. I loved my first Denon headphone which is why I am really interested...

I dunno about Sennheiser. But I was just speculating about the Beyers. I know the DT880 and 990 have different sound, but overall from all the reviews of various Beyerdynamic headphones, bass has been the focus. My speculation was because audiophile/consumer headphones are made to make the...

Honestly. Almost every competitive gaming clan has a website. Then they have a community forum. They also list emails for each player. Just ask them for a simple clean answer, what do you think is the best headphone for gaming. And add, please don't say (Brand) headphone because you are...

Quote: Originally Posted by Tracker Thank You to all those who helped. I think I understand now that headphones don't give you the FEEL of bass, but do give you the SOUND of bass. And that's all that I really want. So it looks as if I'll be getting the HD555, HD580 or HD650 if I can...

Fitz!! Is that Lain with a guitar in your avatar?

Hmmm, From Larry, if I was to do a mod from him. Would be the Grado Mods. RS-1, with his gold dragon recable and C-Cups. 6Moons review said. It doesn't seem to make sense to spend 300 USD minimum, if the stock headphone sounds awful to you. Not saying that it is awful. But why else...

I was just thinking the reason why Beyerdynamics are bass heavy. Would seem if you are a bass head, the DT770 especially is always recommended. And also others complain that its too much bass.

Do you think Beyerdynamic headphones are well known for bass because their home country is one the best countries to live in if you love drum and bass, house, club music, trance music, and Heavy Industrial Rock. I'm not Goth. But from just casual conversations, my understanding the current...

I think consideration for others is tricky now a days. Today, you see people constantly talking on their cell phones, even when they are spending time with another person. How many times have you gone to a cafe or even a restaurant, you see two people at a table. One person fidgets, looks...

Some guys have longer hair. And face it, just cause we're not girls doesn't mean we are not aware of our hair. Cause the girls certainly notice. The AT don't leave any headphone hair. With those wing thingys, the AT phones just float on your head.

The pad just pull off. Its got this elastic band thing. The elastic is pretty stiff. So it just fits right back on, the edge of it is stiff. It slides right back inside the slot along the sides of the headphone

From reading 6moons. They have a point. Darth Beyers simply look amazing. But according to this reviewer. "The modded Beyers are okay. I don't see much value in them because the stock ones are simply atrocious." Even after all the work, recabling, wood, this reviewer prefers other...

I love this thread.

Be happy with what you have until you can afford. Currently happy with AD900. Saving for K701 and Amp. That's the I'm doing it, get something I can afford for now until I have saved for something better. And no I'm not going to reduce my diet to ramens or resort to credit. I'm sure...

While you are right Bach did amazing works. But he is dead. His music is being played by others with their own interpretation. His music is not played the way he would have wanted it exactly. And like someone said before, the human element with instruments. Talking about precision of...

Have your daughter do the research to fix them ^^

Does getting rid of resample make a difference for you? Have it native, forget 4800 or 4100 make a difference? And noise from the computer itself will often effect sound. Not sure what its called, but for sure, all the electrical stuff in the computer. Also its not just the soundcard...

Isn't it unfair to compare these Phones together? They are so different, seems to me its like comparing a Desktop Computer to a Laptop, instead of 2 laptops.

From reading the research behind the K701. Seems to me its like their initial test run with these new technologies. Next gen with the above R & D may be the one to surpass these 10-30 year old phones. But then how much has dynamic headphones have changed other than the materials used? So...

Do some of these headphone companies recommend which amp to use? If the amps are making that much difference, would think, like Grado would say would recommend using such and such type amp for best results.

ROFL. You're kidding me. Adding new stuff to guitars. Whatever. Even the new seven string guitar and people changing octaves and new techniques. Still not that different than the experimentation from the 70s. Your guitars are pretty still the same. Being able to use completely new concepts...
