I decided to sell my 6 screw HFM HE6 and buy a pair of HE6se's because I was afraid the original 6's would eventually break. A while back I was about to buy a pair of the 4 screw sets when the owner informed me there had been a break around the ear connector. Reality check. When I received my...

My Primare A32 power amp (250 Watts/8 Ohms) has 2 sets of speaker taps on its rear panel. I use the bottom ones for my speakers and the top ones for my headphones. I'm very mindful to unplug whichever ones I'm not using when listening to music and always disconnect my headphones when I'm not...

Sorry it's taken 2 months to get this down. Life happens. Hope this helps. I agree with the review given by "once." I spent some time comparing the HE-6se to my modified 6 screw HE-6 and Sennheiser HD-800 that has had the Anaxilus Mod. Here are the differences I heard. I listened to "The Holy...

Wouldn't know how to EQ. I run my music files through Signalyst HQ Player which has many filters, but no EQ. Tried a while back EQing bass on JRiver Media Center but it sounded forced and bloomy. Besides, for me, HQ Player beats JRiver hands down BUT Omniweltall, if you've got secrets to share...

JeffMann, having read your personal bias review, (which was quite impressive) I have to bow to your experience with live music. That's something I haven't experienced since my kids played in concert band in high school, and at that time I was too busy funding their private education to own any...

I keep hearing the Susvara described as warm sounding. To me that means the HP is not neutral. I instantly fell in love with the sound of the Hifiman HE-6. Then over time (about a year later) I realized its timbre was slightly off. I couldn't put my ear on what it was exactly until I read a post...

Check out these sites. It shows what I did. https://www.head-fi.org/threads/wywires-red-headphone-cable.717013/page-12#post-13810718. https://www.head-fi.org/threads/amps-that-can-drive-the-hifiman-he-6-planar-headphones.529873/page-317#post-12856232 Don't know how you can achieve this feat...

I said I'd give a review this week but it'll have to wait a while longer. I was all set Tuesday when the sound of the headphones changed and the HE 6se lost a lot of its shimmer and sparkle. The highs sounded muffled. So back to the 5 disc CD changer the 6se went for more burn in. I listened to...

You are in for a great ride. ENJOY the journey!

I don't want to give any wrong impressions, but I'll add that the headband has a bit of a grip but the leather strap will probably make things more comfortable for many. The old band never bothered me, nor did the weight of the original HE 6. If you can stand the weight of an Audeze or Abyss the...

Received my HE-6se Monday and took some unboxing pics. I think the gun metal gray was a step up in quality and the new version probably won't be as easily damaged. I don't have time for an in-depth review right now but will get to it next week some time. The last few pics are a comparison of the...

I've used Viiolectric's V281 HP amp (now sold) with the HE-6 and had very satisfying results. But it was inconvenient (for me) disconnecting the XLR cables from the power amp to attach to the HP amp then back. I didn't have a pre amp at that time or it would've been easier. Plus I kept reading...

Visited your site. Don't see these or any pads for the HD-800 anywhere. When will these be available?

Has anyone had experience using the speaker taps of a Luxman L-505ux integrated amp for the HE-6? If so how does it stack up?
