    Pioneer Monitor 10 (1978)... Underwhelmed!?

    Hello. I have just found one and was of course curious about it. but I am very surprised that they are said to be monitor headphones. the curve is flat on the advert, but there is a big bump in the mids and only the highs are accurate in my opinion. there is a very important lack in bass. those...

    As I have not found a post about these portable headphones, I would like to say that I used to have them when I was 20, then forty five years ago. I lost them... I just bought nos ones. Their sound is exactly what I remembered. Very very good portable heaphones, and nice looking. well balanced...

    I used to have a self made tube amp for them, specially calibrated for tehm, and what I wrote concerns the testing with this specific amp too.

    hi there. I bought a new mutlimeter that works, and I have three different impedances on the three different 540 golds I own. 600 ohms on the one which is marked 600, and 308 on the 300, but I have 579 on the third. Three very different results in sound, though. also, I made the test on two...

    I know something is wrong, and of course I should have a value. no, of course, the hold button is not on. maybe the meter is defective. but it works for other things

    personnally, I don't feel the same about it. I had the hd 800, and I find it tiring to listen to after a while, because it is like watching life thru a magnifier all the time. it doesn't sound as real as the 540 G in my mind and the extension and scene of the 540 are perfect to me, great...

    Wow! Sennheiser HD 540 Reference are so good.

    sorry, I obtain zero as the only answer on my meter. It is set to ohms, as explained, but I couldnt find how to set it on 2k, even if pressing on the range button. My meter is a dvm1500 velleman. to answer about the serial numbers, the 300 ohms is 18266, the 600, 10572and for the half way is...
