Hey guys I did what you suggested. I bought a stock sennheiser hd650 cable, cut off the 6.3mm and replaced it with a 4pin xlr :)

Thanks a lot guys I'm going to try that then :) I didn't know that the 1/4inch cable was balanced until the connector.

But I want to use the headphone balanced, else I can just use the normal 1/4inch cable. That is why I either have to get a 4pin xlr cable (expensive) or a pentaconn to 4pin adapter (since i already have a 4.4mm pentaconn cable) :/

Hello everyone :) I want to use my hd660s with a 4pin XLR balanced amplifier. The problem is that the cables are ridiculously expensive for my taste so I'm thinking about making an adapter. The hd660s come with a 4.4mm Pentaconn cable and I want to make an adapter for it. The parts I wanted to...

is the mezes classic low end elevated a lot ? according to the graphs it should be just a bit the a1000z might be a good idea, i will look into it Another option i would have is to put different pads (hm5) on my ath m50s to reduce the low end. What do you guys think about that ? I just...

I don't know about the Headphones you mentioned so far but I kept looking and I found 3 pairs so far that might be good for me: (all measurements are from innerfidelity) Meze 99: Audio Technica ATH MSR7: Fostex th-610: And here to compare to my hd 660s: What do you think about...

Hello :) I recently got the Sennheiser hd 660s and I am very happy with them. The only problem is that I can't use them all the time because they leak too much sound and bother the people next to my bedroom. So now I'm looking for a second pair that is closed or at least leaks less sound. It...

I looked into the Topping stack now and i actually really like it. The only thing I'm concerned about is the output impedance which is 30 ohms on the 3.5mm and 10 ohms on the 6.4mm jack. Since I will also use lower impedance headphones like my m50 and other headphones that I might buy in the...

I would prefer matching products for a stack so i would have to get the a30 as well. Would you reccomend that stack over the schiit stack or o2+odac ? What about the standard modi 2 (non multibit) vs odac ? And why do you think they arent ideal for 150ohms and even a sonic mismatch ? Their...

Interesting, it seems that I could get it from there for an acceptable price :) Since most here seem to reccomend the O2+Odac, i have to ask: How do they compare to the schiit stack and aune x1s?

Amazon uk or what do you mean? As far as i can see jdslabs has no official distributor in the uk What about other options like the ifi nano iDSD Black Label (240€) ? Or smsl stuff (which i havent really compared because they already kinda feel cheap looking at xD) Maybe fiio ?

Unfortunately they arent easy to get in europe, if i import them it will cost me shipping and import fees and the only official distributor close is in germany and they ask 350€ without transport. I also fear that it will be difficult to return them if the units have any issues. However I can...

Hello everyone :) Explanation I finally bought a high quality headphone with help from this community and in the end I decided to get the 660s. I am very pleased with the headphone, it is very comfortable and sounds perfect for my taste (warm and no harsh treble). I am however currently...

Okay thank you for your help so far :) Yes the sound quality is not the same when connected to the phone, i hear a noticable difference, I was just surprised that it would get to such high volume at all. My next step will be to get a starter DAC+AMP or combo unit but i will open a new thread...

Hello again :) I got my 660s today and i am really happy. While it doesnt have lots of sub bass, it is still present and overall the headphone sounds very warm and pleasing to me :) I am however confused why people always say you need a good amp for such headphones and for example a fiio q1 is...
