Here is another example that sets the NDH30 apart from other phones. Fantastic dynamics. Fantastic everything.

A bit Off topic on this. Drop is selling topping discrete a90d amp for $429 new. Is it worth it at that great price? Does ndh30 sound decent on that pairing?

I was mocked when i said hd600 series sounds best on tubes. Im paraphrasing "if i hear another person saying that hd600 sounds best on tubes i will go berserk!" That was followed by a number of people agreeing that it was a myth. That any good amp with synergy will be just as good

It does depend on the recording and amp headphone synergy. Also im using a top of the line Hart 8 core silver cable terminated with a furutech 4 pin balanced xlr. Yes the cable did make a noticeable difference. Not saying that on all recordings the ndh30 was the best especially on voice where...

My main thrust was that i can't understand how people find the phone not engaging. I have 660s, 600, 6xx and focal Elex. For example on many recordings the ndh30 sound more dynamic than my Elex Rebel amp combo and that is an extremely dynamic pairing.

I know i keep repeating myself but there are some on this thread that don't think the ndh30 is engaging enough. I just say to them that they should play the hi-res version of Jaws-2 "attack on the water skier". Then come back to me and apologize. Its that spectacular and the best...

Adjustable clamp? How so?

Mike, Drop currently selling new units for $299. Everything is included. Two Cables etc.

I believe you are looking at "used like new" Please send link. Thx

Good question wonder myself. I think it would probably be the original since i dont think sennheiser has reintroduced them into production.

Heads up... Drop now selling new 660s for $299. Can't believe they have this as a new item. This is the time to buy as i doubt they have many of these and at a very reasonable price.

Also was 399 at sennheiser with no shipping cost. Usually sennheiser dictates the cost of all other sellers. Waiting for another 399 sennheiser sale and will buy at that time.

Thats exactly why i buy directly from sennheiser. Btw basically no difference in pricing. All or most sales are initiated by sennheiser.

This is a must listen on the ndh30. Using with singxer amp. Hi-Res recording. This is why the ndh 30 is a different animal. Just wow!

Wow! You are 100 percent correct on all your observations of this recording. Listening via my ndh30 on a singxer amp. As good as it gets.
