Sennheiser HD599 - first impressions.
Not sure where the idea that there's two different sounding versions of these even comes from? As far as I know there is nothing to back this up except someone just saying it. The ivory and black versions are supposed to sound the same as well. But I think these are nice headphones, very cool...- Nirvana Woman

Review by 'Nirvana Woman' on item 'Sennheiser HD 558'
The HD558 is one of those headphones that even when you're not specifically listening to music, some soundtrack might randomly come up in a show or whatever and you catch yourself thinking gosh that sounds so nice. And that is not something that goes without saying, even with expensive...- Nirvana Woman

Philips Fidelio X2?!
Yeah, I have a number of amps in my house. I also have a big vintage Marantz amp but none of them are useful for the Fidelios. If you have a decent computer output I would really recommend that, or if you like to use your phone it should also go very well. :headphones:- Nirvana Woman

Review by 'Nirvana Woman' on item 'Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro-80 Closed Studio Headphones'
Boy, where to begin with these bad boys. I think I'll start with a strong statement: these might be a candidate for best headphone ever made. They have so much to offer it's pretty wild. Probably the best bass I've heard on any headphone. I don't doubt that there's thousand dollar flagships out...- Nirvana Woman

Philips Fidelio X2?!
But why you need an amp? I just run my X1 and X2 from the PC motherboard, sounds great.- Nirvana Woman

Sennheiser HD5699 'hybrid' (an HD560S with HD599 drivers)
Cool video, that's the first time I've had diffuse field explained to me. So basically any headphone with exceptional timbre you could assume is a diffuse field design? Those guys are serious headphone nerds lol, love it. I think Sennheiser has been really exciting in the last five years, it...- Nirvana Woman

Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements
Yeah, still two more weeks. I have seriously considered it and honestly am considering the unthinkable more and more :grin: the money might be better spent on trying out an HD660S2 when they drop in price a bit, idk! I was just playing Mass Effect 3 and when I fire the black widow on my...- Nirvana Woman

Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements
That's how I'm feeling too at the moment. I've owned the HD560S for two weeks now and I'm just not getting "it". I've read from a number of people that these need time to grow on you, so I'm hoping that may still happen for me as well. As it stands I find the 58X's tuning much more to my liking...- Nirvana Woman

When do you go from 'enthusiast' or collector to 'hoarder'
I have about five or six, half of them (dt990, dt770, Fidelio X2) I don't really use anymore but I'm not wanting to sell them either. The need just isn't that great and even if i sell them five years from now the value will probably still be about the same. I wouldn't consider myself a hoarder...- Nirvana Woman

Review by 'Nirvana Woman' on item 'Sennheiser HD 560S'
In this review I'll be mainly comparing the 560S to the DT770. I think it's a good comparison for two reasons, first being they both cost about the same and aim for an analytical, balanced sound. The HD560S seems almost designed from the start to compete with Beyerdynamic's offerings like the...- Nirvana Woman
