correct. Do you know anything about these rings? I am guessing they play a small part in the base? I have 2 pairs of Ovation 1's, one pair for spare as back up but one of them has red rings in the centres of the drivers and the other pair has grey plastic rings but the holes in the centres of...

Haha! nice one!

Hello. Does anybody actually know the difference between the Sennheiser HD 560 Ovation and the HD 560 Ovation ii please? I have heard a few times now that the Ovation 1 is better than Ovation 2. I own 2 pairs of Ovation 1 headphones. One pair the drivers have a red plastic ring in the centre and...

Hello. I have just bought a pair of Classic ii as I am curious to how they sound etc so once I have them I may be able to see what the alternatives in terms of earpad replacements. How do yours sound? Do you have any other vintage headphones to compare then to? Thanks.

An old post I know but i'm having a similar problem. I have a headphone amplifier but it does not have base and treble controls so I would somehow like to connect it to my Onkyo intergrated amplifier as this has tone controls and my tape, cd and turntable are connected to the Onkyo. I was...

Hello. I have just bought a pair of HD 425 as I own the HD 430 and love the sound from them and I am curious as to how the HD 425 compare. I will let you know my thoughts on them once i've spent some time with them.

Hello. I own the HD 545 and a very good headphone too! To me it has a very similar sound signature to the HD 600 but with slightly less bass and with a bit more soundstage. I have owned the HD 565 and have compared this alongside the HD 545 and to my ears the HD 545 sounds better than the HD...

Have you owned or own the HD 700 HD 800？I cannot justify spending that amount of money on a pair of headphones and cannot see how they can be superior to the vintage models.

I have a HD 540 reference 1 600ohm and HD 540 reference 2 300ohm each sounding different from each other but I love them both. I prefer them to the HD 600 which in itself is a good headphone. Going on to the HD 650, I cannot understand how so many people rave over it. To me it sounds thick...

I agree with you. I have tried a few modern Sennheisers and they are not a patch on the likes of the HD 540 and the HD 530.

I recently bought a pair of DT 880 250ohm from Amazon. To me they sound thin with not much body to the sound but I have to say that the treble regions are extended nicely but through my Onkyo intergrated amplifier they cannot handle high volumes as they start to break up sonicaly where as my HD...

Hello everyone. This is my first post on Headfi. Has anyone got a blue pair of Sennheiser Hd 565 they are willing to sell please? It does not matter if the headband and earpads need replacing. Cash waiting thank you.
