Sennheiesr HD 650 Vs Hifiman He-400
Quote: +1, though I've encountered several people here who are using them primarily portable. I think they're simply insane...but there it is... They're lighter than the higher end HiFiMans, but they're the exact same body as HE-500, HE5LE, HE-6. I can't imagine trying to use any...- IEMCrazy

Schiit Mjolnir headphone amplifier
Quote: Eww, I never noticed that picture issue Slade pointed out....I'm surprised that picture would be up there at all! The manual itself (or was it the FAQ?) clearly states to put the amp on top and not to cover the vents. That said, I find the MJ does not run all that hot at...- IEMCrazy

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
Quote: I've been enjoying reading your impressions. It's about time that you finally tried the HD650 again! You really needed these in your collection, and I had the impression that in the past, your chain was just not doing them the justice they deserve! I'll add though...- IEMCrazy

**Hifiman HE-400 Impressions and Discussion Thread**
Quote: For me the headband itself isn't the issue, it's the shape of it in that it tends to apply most of the weight to the top center of the head with nearly no distribution around the sides of the head. This means there's three points of contact: Around the ears and the top of your...- IEMCrazy

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
And one final time, I'll make a very special post in the HD650 Appreciation thread. While I've been spending most of my head-time with HD800 and HE-6, HD650 is still my long-time home here on Head-Fi, and I'm glad to still be a member of the HD650 club. To that end, this is where I'll make my...- IEMCrazy

Sennheiser HD800 Appreciation Thread
Quote: I think you're confusing low quality recordings with old recordings. I agree Frank Sinatra, including his very old Capitol recordings sound fantastic on HD800. But the thing is Frank's recordings were indeed excellent recordings. That man had the best available at the time. ...- IEMCrazy

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
Quote: The only people buying HD650 are the .01% of us into audio as a hi-end hobby. They're $500. Outside our little niche where $2k is a "reasonable price for a very high end headphone" people would laugh, then cry, at a $500 headphone And I don't think the pro-audio studio...- IEMCrazy

**Hifiman HE-400 Impressions and Discussion Thread**
Quote: True enough... Quote: True enough, and many of us often enough disagree with any "official" reviews that any review is kind of meaningless. On the other hand, I'm not sure how an objective review site can be a really objective review site if it only reviews...- IEMCrazy

Sennheiser HD800 Appreciation Thread
Quote: It's a tough choice. Lyr + Bifrost is an excellent combination. And DAC is very important. On the other hand if you're going to spend the money and go through the agrivation of importing, and especially if you intend to go the HD800 route....I wouldn't overlook getting the...- IEMCrazy

**Hifiman HE-400 Impressions and Discussion Thread**
Quote: I agree. It doesn't even have to be a "speaker amp" but should be one of the half dozen or so headphone amps that actually deliver almost enough power. EF6, Dark Star, maybe Mjolnir (I have to do my own analysis of that one), etc. Otherwise for price-performance the Emotiva...- IEMCrazy
