    I may have a severe case of bad luck or spooky things are happening in my office.

    It's really hard to get other amps here, that's why I went with FiiO. I've seen a lot of people pairing the K3 and K5 with the HD660s, as it's not a heaphone that is hard to drive and it's not picky with amps like the HD650. I was getting good results with it, it just doesn't make much sense for...

    I may have a severe case of bad luck or spooky things are happening in my office.

    I do know that if I leave the headphone plugged, I hear a little pop when I turn off the amp, but it's not loud. Yeah, I was really afraid of static, that's why I changed the flooring from carpet to vynil flooring, I also freaking hate carpet, it's really annoying to clean, and the possibility...

    I may have a severe case of bad luck or spooky things are happening in my office.

    So, harmonics are generated by those heavy duty equipments? I should have explained better but by office is inside me house hehehe It's just the computer and my TV on a repurposed bedroom. But anyway, if this is what causing issue, shouldn't I hear something before the driver fails? Like some...

    I may have a severe case of bad luck or spooky things are happening in my office.

    So, last year I bought a HD660s and a FiiO K3 when I was in the USA traveling. I was enjoying the heck out of it, and then, May of 2020, the left side of the headphone just went silent, without a reason and without giving any signals. I sent to warranty, but because I live in another country...

    I need Ghostbusters help here, my headphones are dying without a reason.

    I really hope it's just bad luck and nothing is messing with the headphones. At least I'm getting rid of the carpet flooring, the first day I got into this apartment I already started hating it :k701smile:

    I need Ghostbusters help here, my headphones are dying without a reason.

    I don't have speakers and I don't listen with loud volumes, I prefer getting my anc headphones when there's too much background noise. I already changed the amp and I'll replace the carpet with vinyl flooring to lessen the static buildup. I'll also call some electrician to see if my power is...

    I need Ghostbusters help here, my headphones are dying without a reason.

    Hope so! Thanks for all your info :) Anyway, I'll just buy headphones that have warranty on my country now, it limits my options a lot, but I don't want to deal with another headphone dying and having nowhere to run. Thankfully Sennheiser will sent me a new one, but I'll have to pay the...

    I need Ghostbusters help here, my headphones are dying without a reason.

    I got my money back from the AKG. Sennheiser will send me a new one in August :) I got a new amp too, but I don't know if it's really the amp. I never heard any distortions or popping coming from it. Is it possible that I've been discharging the static on the amp and it caused clipping or any...

    I need Ghostbusters help here, my headphones are dying without a reason.

    It's my only guess too. I've already took the carpet out of the room and I'll replace it with vinyl flooring, I already wanted to do it before, because it's much easier to clean and it's not gross like a 20 year old carpet is. I'm now using a FiiO K5 Pro (arrived today after the death of the...

    I need Ghostbusters help here, my headphones are dying without a reason.

    Yeah, tried on my phone and iPad, doesn't work on any of them. I never felt static shocks through the headphones, but I did once I got up the chair and touched the desk (without the headphones on). No adapters, plugged straight into a FiiO K3.

    I need Ghostbusters help here, my headphones are dying without a reason.

    Hello guys, I really need help. I had a Sennheiser HD660s with a FiiO K3, bought in May of last year. The headphone left driver died without giving any warning, I was using it, went to the kitchen to take something to eat, when I got back it was busted, tried different cables, sources and nada...

    Need recommendations on a new pair to go along my HD660s

    I'm leaning towards it, but I've heard some complaints with the build quality, it worries me because I really don't want another problematic headphone, I love the HD660s, but I wasn't expecting it to bust a driver after just a year of only using it at night with mid to low volume and taking care...

    Need recommendations on a new pair to go along my HD660s

    Hello guys, I'm looking for a new pair of headphones that can complement my Sennheiser HD660s. The left driver on my 660s is not working and Sennheiser is out of stock, they will only send a replacement in august. I'm craving a new headphone now, I'm currently using a WH-1000XM3 but it's...

    Need help with my Sennheiser HD660s. Left side went silent

    Do you guys think that my FiiO K3 is the culprit? I've been using the headphone with a 2.5mm balanced cable that I've bought out of aliexpress (this one). I never really went above 3 o'clock, just if the source had low volume. When the source had low volume, I would put on the highest gain...

    Need recommendations for a new Headphone.

    Yeah, I know the prices are pretty high, but the only way to get it on a normal price is traveling to US and that's impossible now hahaha I was wondering the DT1990 because I watch a lot of movies at night, and I know it has better soundstage and imaging than the 660s.
