Nice System! this is about what I would call a reasonable source chain for theses headphones, don’t bother spending thousands to see if it scales.

perhaps it does, and as I said, I enjoy the 6XX, just I think the hype is misplaced, much like as I mentioned before, in the hifi world, the Bose 901, Sansui 555, Gale monitors, etc. these cult following have continued on from a time period in which these were, perhaps not the pinnacle, but...

You’re most welcome! I could confuse you even more by saying that one of my favourite DAPs was the old Iriver H340/340 running rockbox :)

I was forced to go back to the HD6XX, and… my impressions were the same. excellent at their price point, not a giant killer. however, I will say that none of my other headphones do metal quite as well as these . they manage to remain balanced, control distortion, and never colour or muddle the...

Welcome! There's plenty to learn here and im sure youve got great contributions to make. Also plenty of people with gear addictions ready to recieve your unused gear im sure!

people who grew up with parents using cds also like that music, hence some of my generation's obsession with popular 80s and 90s bands. playing metallica through my new speakers at the minute :)

I can’t help you with android players past the fiio m6 (only android in name, you can’t use the internet etc past streaming music on tidal and spotify), my Hiby R5s is still in the mail hopefully to arrive in a couple of days. as for local only daps, I can recommend the astellnkern AK jr, which...

I didn’t mean it in mockery of your message I was just clarifying my setup. idk I haven’t had much sleep and was honestly just spamming hate for no reason my apologies for being an asshole :) In actual fact I enjoy the hd6xx, just not as much as some other headphones which naturally causes me...

I respect and acknowledge all this, but, being as unbiased as possible, wouldn’t this hold true with better headphones on the same equipment? I may not be running thousands of dollars worth but I do have an almost $2k DAC/Amp which I use most of the time. I also understand the point of system...

I gave my m50x away last month to a friend, my cheapest headphones now are - the HD6xx. sure they sound good, but I just can not understand for the life of me where the fanbase comes from. the only thing they ever did that is of note (in my opinion) is to be not good or bad in every category, OK...

i’m delivering my opinion that a group of adults should be grown up enough to leave this be

I would have done if i hadn’t been slandered a bunch of times. I’d think you’d have been grown up enough to let it go

i’m fine with pushback but I just jokingly (mainly) made a comment and got taken apart for it by a bunch of people I don’t know

Unfortunately, after trying the SR-30 on my newer (proven) energiser I can confirm the imbalance is in the headphones and not the SRD-4 adapter.

does the fact that I have many better pairs of headphones without spending mega money not indicate better the misplaced hype in the HD6xx? if you’re going to be a dick about it, i’d rather just listen to speakers 🖕
