    Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements

    Yeah, thanks. What options do I have then? Just get used to it, or new pads perhaps? I dont know which pads fit this. If pads are expensive though, screw it.

    Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements

    There are two pieces of foam on these cans, right? One inside and one on the back behind the grills. What could be problematic when removing the inside one? My ears touch them, and removing them feels much better for me. My previous set (PC 360) did collect some hair, dust etc., so I'm a bit...

    Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements

    Received mine today, haven't been listening very long. But so far I'm satisfied with the sound! Comfort, not so sure. They sure are a lot tighter than my PC 360, but might get better over time. Pads are fine, but my ears touch inside. Is there anything to do about that? New pads? Or will I get...

    Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements

    Thanks! Unfortunately, it looks like Sennheiser doesn't ship to my country. And eBay/Amazon was either very expensive or didn't ship. Found one left locally though, so I ordered it.

    Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements

    I ordered these a couple days ago, excited to get them! I may have to get a longer (3 m/10 ft) cable though, my setup is not perfect. Could anyone help me find some?

    Need to upgrade my Sennheiser headset to mid-range headphones

    I have some concerns about the cable length. Currently I use all of the 3 m (10 ft) long cable. It runs from the back of my computer, sitting on the floor on my right. Going behind my desk and coming out to the left of my monitor and running across my desk. I could possibly rearrange...

    Need to upgrade my Sennheiser headset to mid-range headphones

    It's a bit because I haven't heard of them before. That doesn't mean I think they're bad, maybe... skeptical? And I'm worried about the size, I get the sense that they're a bit small. Might be uncomfortable. Also they are closed. But the price is good, seems there is one site that sells them...

    Need to upgrade my Sennheiser headset to mid-range headphones

    I live in Norway. The used market is not very big. Interesting mod there, but I'll keep it simple and look for something new and widely available. Well, I know I like the Sennheiser comfort as long as it has similar pads as the PC 360. I tried the DT 990 Pros, but concerned about them being...

    To be honest, I dont think I'm interested in them.

    Need to upgrade my Sennheiser headset to mid-range headphones

    They haven't reached their goal yet, so they're gonna be available for a little while still. I'm tempted, actually. (It is $15 shipping, but there's 25% VAT and $20 customs. I guess it comes down to luck.)

    Need to upgrade my Sennheiser headset to mid-range headphones

    Thanks! Yeah, the HD6xx is tempting, but with shipping its a bit too much for me. Also the drop has ended, not familiar with what happens next with them. Might be good prices used, but prefer new. SHP9500 are about 80 bucks on aliexpress, so I have considered them. For that price, they're...

    Need to upgrade my Sennheiser headset to mid-range headphones

    Thanks for all the replies! Sorry for the late answers, having some trouble figuring out what to say/do. Might be available on Amazon or something, but nothing local. Could you explain upgrading op-amps? Not sure what that means. EDIT: I can't disable my MB audio since my speakers are hooked...

    Need to upgrade my Sennheiser headset to mid-range headphones

    I have looked at and considered them, but they come in at around $290 after shipping and taxes into my country. I may need to lower my budget a bit, at least my max, if I also need a dac/amp. EDIT: I didn't actually realize I could and should change the gain on my Essence STX. So in theory, it...

    Need to upgrade my Sennheiser headset to mid-range headphones

    I got to try my friends DT 990 Pro 250 Ohms yesterday, with a FiiO E10K. I'm not that good at noticing different sound stages, highs and lows, comparing etc, which is why I mentioned that I would probably be happy with whatever I end up with. But I did like them. They had a good amount of bass...

    Need to upgrade my Sennheiser headset to mid-range headphones

    Thanks! Unfortunately the HE-400S are about $300-350 for me, which is out of my range. HE4XX has been mentioned elsewhere, but I'm not sure about HIFIMAN in general. Just because I don't have any experience with them, I dont thing they are seen much in my country. There is a couple HD598...
