HD590 good for deep bass?
I find the bass not deep enough in my Sennheiser HD595, not even with an amp. I like the bass in my Sennheiser HD280, but otherwise I find them a little dry, but good for isolation. I assume that HD650 is a safe choice. But I find them too expensive. I would like th find an open headphone in...- Langrath

Sennheiser HD595 have no deep bass!
I haven't realised that before I bought HD280. I bought them for better isolation. I enjoyed them more than HD595 although HD595 have a more open sound. At first I didn't understand why I enjoyed HD280 more. Then I heard. There is deep bass in HD280 that I can't hear in HD595. I first heard it...- Langrath

Your biggest headphones dissappointment?
Sometimes I have bought headphones that were a big disappointment. I had expected better. My biggest disappointment until now was Sennheiser PX200. How could Sennheiser produce headphones nearly totally clean from bass? What is your biggest disappointment of headphones? Georg- Langrath

Grado SR60 + Pads of HD414. Why?
I don't get it. To SR60. It is recommended to buy pads of HD414 to make a hole in them for better sound. But why not make the hole in original pads? Georg- Langrath

Suggestions rather cheap equaliser?
I have hearing loss in upper midrange and treble and get it rather compensated with 5-bands equaliser in my minidisk. But I think that it could be better with a standing alone equaliser. Then I also could use a portable CD player. As the origin of sound is from a portable CD player or minidisk...- Langrath

CD for frequence analyzis
Is there any CD to recommend for frequency analyzes of your headphone. I mean with a tone of 20 Hz and next tone 50 Hz for example and so on up to 20 kHz. Only an example. In other word a test CD for analyzing how you hear the different frequencies. Georg- Langrath

XinFeed Crossfeed Ampless
I bought XinFeed Crossfeed Ampless. The sound gets more "not in your head". But in my opinion it gives ditorsion. The sound is not clean after crossfeed. It was worth trying, but I can't recommend it. Georg- Langrath

Hearing aids and headphones
I have now got the diagnosis presbyacusis. That is hearing loss due to age. Now I understand why people nowadays talk so inarticulated. The hearing loss wasn't very small either. It was in higher midrange and treble. So take my earlier reviews of headphones with a grain of salt. Anyway. I...- Langrath

Do you enjoy music or listen to details from your headphone?
I have HD595 with an amp as my best headphone. I can’t hear anything really wrong with them. Good soundstage. Balanced registers from bass to treble. Detailed. Now what I have found lately. I enjoy some music more with my PX100. Classic is best with HD595 but otherwise I listen to soft pop...- Langrath

The metamorphosis of cheap headophones
As I said before I bought Sennheiser HD202 for isolating, not audiophile reasons. I was surprised that the sound was so acceptable for the price. The worst thing with them is much too big bloated bass. Here came my flash of genius in. I used the equaliser of my minidisc to decrease the bass...- Langrath

Sennheiser HD 202 a positive surprise
I bought Sennheiser HD202 to get isolation from the sound of lawn mower etc. It was also of curiosity. They are a little cheaper than PX100, so even if they were bad I didn’t get ruined. My expectation wasn’t too big, but I was surprised. They are supra-auricle and reach to the outer edges of...- Langrath

Different Philips HPs
I had Philips HP 910 once. I was very satisfied with them. Then there was an irreparable defect in them. I then bought HP890. They were not so good as HP910. They were too big to lay on a pillow with your head wearing the headphones. The head was as locked into a vice. The sound is good with one...- Langrath

HD595 uncomfortable to me. Best headphones for me?
It is sad to me to admit it. I am disappointed with my HD595. It is not the sound. The sound is perfect for my ears and music. Couldn’t be better. It is the comfort. They get too warm. They are too small for my ears, so my ears always touch the walls. You really feel that touch after a while...- Langrath
