    Sennheiser HD820

    Please have HD650 mids with HD650 treble smoothness and HD800 bass texture. One can dream right?

    Bigger soundstage = more detail

    No. Headphones with bigger soundstages are more of a perception from a leaner sound also some other factors. It has more to do with the quality of the driver. Detail has nothing to do with the perception of stage whether it's closer or far away. Headphones with larger stages also tend to have...

    I personally didn't like the US at all. They sound even more muffled in the lower mids and compressed. The Boost pads sound more uneven than both but more musical and fun. I like the Boost myself.

    HD650 upgrade path

    Nope If you want an upgrade you should probably upgrade your DAC and Amps with the HD650 to take them to the next level. If you want an upgrade in micro detail, resolution, speed then maybe look into the HD800 but you will lose out on tone, balance and musicality.

    Really? I like the MA900 a lot but agree it was grainy, it's been a good 3 years since I've heard one though. The MA900 sounded pretty unique to me it's design made it have a weird soundstage that I liked, it's resolution wasn't really that great, a tier below the AKG K7 variants but I got mine...

    Nice! I need more time with the Atticus but it was for sure more to my taste than the Eikon. How you finding them compared to your hawks? I thought the hawks has better technicalities than the Eikon the Eikon has better balance and FR. I didn't really compare Atticus to NH so will be good to...

    Yeah I've heard the Z1R. It's better than the Z7 for sure. It still has that Sony upper mid glare. I didn't like it at first but the more I listened I quite enjoyed it. My problem with it is the price, it's not as resolving as the HD800, HD6XX or Elear high open headphones do generally have the...

    This new website layout sucks! Editing is now a chore. Anyway I'll hear the 1990 at some point hopefully soon. Yeah the HD650 is very smooth in the treble but there is a bit of upper mid ringing, only a tad but they can sound a bit shouty with some music in that region compared to say a HD800...

    I don't think I've heard the 1990 I did here the closed version 1770? Well made headphone. 1990 is attractive

    Inthere why do you always contradict yourself and trip over yourself? You are all over the place half the time. You seem more angry than most. First you said I lost my temper now I don't...which is it? It's got nothing to do with you why I'm here, DO you even know why my account got wiped...

    Again you are exaggerating everything. This site is plauged with over positive reviews and high S/N and there's about 3 people you can count on to get honest impressions. My post is proof you can't say any negative others you get blames for crapping on a headphone lol I've also now been...

    Seems people can handle a bit of honesty. The weird thing here is people can't seem to take people mentioning faults it's actually quite sad. You moan because because I actually know what I'm talking about will call negativities out. The thing is I've a really praised these headphones that...
