    Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread

    Er you realise that they both sound vastly different still? I can say that because I extensively listened to both and this clearly shows again how you can not just judge a graph with another, compare their prices alongside and then say "yeah in this case the HD 58X is better because its cheaper...

    Alright, just to throw this in here after having the pleasure of listening to the 660S2's for weeks now, all I can say is wow. Finally after searching for such a long time it feels like the search has ended at least for a good while for now as these make me forget I'm wearing headphones - Or let...

    Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread

    Aw man now you're really hyping me! But honestly as well, no matter my age and hearing I really hope I'll always have the resources to try pretty much any headphone perhaps nothing too crazy over 1-2k$ but still. I feel rather privileged to have that option and now I'm even more excited to...

    I'm also honestly very very guilty of entirely changing my mind in terms of what "taste of headphone" I may currently enjoy. But it's very important to know that this is still just that, a taste, my taste, not something of actual substance. Especially seeing how quickly my own opinions can shift...

    Sorry to hear that - If you have Tinnitus as well, then I'm also sorry, I know how it feels as I've had it since I can think. It's thankfully so mild that I can ignore it most of the time (took me a long time learning to cope though) and I think my hearing is totally fine still. But to this day...

    Thanks again. I hate myself a bit for giving in so easily to expensive purchases (but hey I'm young and live alone with just two cats), but I ordered the NDH 30 as well now. Love comfy headphones and if they offer a different but similar signature to the S2, hey that also sounds great...

    That is quite the statement, can someone else confirm this too? Seems more like a subjective thing whether or not the drivers (and even sound) is "vastly superior" no offense but I'd love to be proven wrong.

    Awesome, that's great to know thanks - I already own the 700 Pros from Beyerdynamic which are analytical enough, definitely not feeling the need to try the NDH 30, especially since it honestly looks a bit less comfy than the 660S2, weighing about 100g more too. Might overall perhaps not be that...

    Pardon if this was covered before, but thus I reckon the NDH30 is simply more bright compared to the 660S2? Definitely not something I'd want, and up to now I believed the NDH30 basically sounds like a 600S2 with added sub-bass. But I guess it's not that simple again after all. :)

    I was in the group of people who kind of "hated" the sound signature unfortunately. Although hate is a strong word, the sharp treble spike and lack of sub-bass + bass generally made me dislike them very much so without EQ. Sure, toning down perhaps just the treble OR boosting the bass is fine...

    Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread

    At times I honestly forget that I'm wearing a "6xx series" Sennheiser - Their sound feels so fresh and different enough from the 660S1 to make me rather happy. As others have said before, something about their dynamics, ability to portray the soundstage etc. Again, baffled how these small...

    @kman1211 , mildly apples to oranges comparison perhaps (if comparisons in this thread are still allowed to anything else but the 6xx series :wink:), but out of curiosity how would you compare the Beyerdynamics T1's in your profile picture to the 660S2?

    Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread

    I reckon it's not entirely a fair comparison since the Hifiman Deva's cost about 169$ for the wired version (usually including the Bluetooth dongle about 269$), yet it's still a great performing headphone with its huge planar magnetic drivers. Going from the 58xs to the Devas I could always hear...

    Sennheiser HD 660S2 thread

    Wish I would've had that when they bit through both the tiny outside cables on the Beyerdynamic 900 X PRO - Great headphones, if they wouldn't be broken, I would've probably not tried the S2 yet I'm glad I did so as even though they toned the treble peak down on this model, treble still sounds a...
