I see, thank you. I may consider getting a balanced cable for my HD599s. Those Denons seem interesting. I think I'll make a new thread in the appropriate section and ask for recommendations for new headphones in my price range and for my needs. With the genres that I (mostly) listen to. You...

Where did you get the balanced cable and how much did it cost? I'm assuming it came with the correct plugs? So that it's plug n play, no modifying the headphone-end connector (which isn't 3.5mm on the HD599, it's 2.5mm twist lock or whatever). Sidenote: I'm still using my lovely HD599s, using...

Yep, I agree. That is a good price. I paid 149€ for mine. I remember seeing them in the 170-200€ price range so... 139€ is very good value. On a side note, I ordered an Objective2 Amplifier.

I agree, I find my HD599 to be great. Not perfect but very good in the price range. Nice bass for (semi?) open back headphones, I like me some bass for Hip Hop and such. I got a new cable (2 of them actually, one is unopened and waiting as a backup. Poyatu brand from AliExpress) and it didn't...

That's very interesting and surprising... I use the thin 3.5mm-1.2m long cable with my HD599s. So you mean the cable which plugs one end into the headphones (locks in place) and the other end is 3.5mm? Cuz I can't use 6.3mm and the adapter that came with it broke easily. I don't know what cable...

Yes I think that's right. I still love my pair of SennHeiser HD599 and they are lovely and bassy. Spacious, open, bassy, detailed. But not super neutral/balanced due to the bass. I'm not an expert though. But what you're implying sounds right to me. These are my daily drivers, I listen to music...

I don't use an amplifier, but it's from a Desktop PC with a good motherboard with good soundboard/chip in it. But yeah that's my experience, that's how it sounds to me. BTW I've heard that the M50 and M50X have some difference in sound, not sure though. I heard the M50 (non removable cable...

As an owner of a pair of SennHeiser HD599, that review is quite spot on IMHO. The sound description is so right, other reviews have said it leans on bass as well. Yes, it's sort of a bit muddy with the bass, not super clear clarity bass, my ATH-M50 by Audio Technica (closed back) have a...

I bought these last week and got them today, SennHeiser HD599. First pair of sennheisers for me and love the comfort+sound, great audio. I was surprised, so much bass :D leans on the bass, at times boomy+bassy feeling. Even coming from closed back Audio-Technica ATH-M50s! I have M50s and these...

I want to buy new great headphones in the not so distant future and I've found that Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO 250ohms would probably be the best cans for me and heavenly sounding....  I listen to a lot of genres, most mainstream genres I like, but yeah I am big into Electronic music/EDM, bassy...

Hi folks I'm a young man from Finland and I love, really just love MUSIC and High quality audio..... I dabble in many things and know a lot/master a thing or two. I mainly listen to music at home on a powerful desktop PC Setup.....    Looking to set up a nice HiFi headphones+AMP/DAC System at...
