USB-C to 3.5mm adapters (DAC) - Let's find the best
True. Also does anyone has the ugreen adapter from amazon? It is also cheap and also has a dac.... By the way, what do you guys think of bluetooth receivers? I know fiio already hasba bunch of them. Dongles with dacs will always provide better sound quality over hifi bt adapters?- Pedro Oliveira

Sennheiser HD 600 Impressions Thread
I actually do prefer the older design. It was classier. Now is just plain. Is it me or are they now shipping these with cheaper, hd25 like boxes (cardboard boxes with no classy black box inside)?- Pedro Oliveira

The m100's are being sold new on europeans amazons for around 80/100 euros. Do you guys think they are still worth it? Am i mistaken or the m100 is still the best sounding headphone made by v moda?

Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements
Who makes the headphones? Not massdrop.... sure they may have a importnat role in the development and tunning but in the end is sennheiser who makes the headphones, so i would say my anger is definitely not misguided.- Pedro Oliveira

Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements
I know it is a partnership with massdrop but why dont we get similar things here in europe? Why there is not a european or global massdrop or something? Sure europeans can still enter the drops but after taxes and with the risk of getting the headphones stuck on customs its really not that worth...- Pedro Oliveira

Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Review & Measurements
As a european citizen and given that Sennheiser is a European brand i cant help to a bit disrespected.... it makes me mad that for us europeans our best option to get into the hd6** series is too get a hd600 from amazon for 270 euros while in america you guys are getting hd650’s and now this...- Pedro Oliveira

Sennheiser HD660S... Finally a successor for the HD650?
Yes i mainly use my ipad, smartphone and spotify right now and only havê a e12. But still i think the price diference is a bit steel and would like the 660s to drop a bit in price. Nowadays you can almost buy a new Fidélio x2 with the diference between the hd650 and 660. Its quite a diference....- Pedro Oliveira

Sennheiser HD660S... Finally a successor for the HD650?
Cool. I want the hd650 só bad. Would you say that besides more bass, the hd650 also hits/punches harder than the hd660s? The 660 is noticeably brighter than the 650? @DavidA Did you felt that the hd660 was was brighter than the 600 when you tested? Graphs seem to show the 660 has having a...- Pedro Oliveira
