Which headphones give you the best dynamics? It's the most critical problem to me when listening to classical music, I need dynamics. So far my favourites are K701. They give much greater dynamic amplitudes compared to LCD-2.2, SR-007mk2, Lambda Pro, HD-800 and my other former headphones. K701...- brat

Sennheiser HD-518 pre-appreciation thread

Can we burn-in a specific frequency range of the headphones?
Do you think that we can burn-in a specific fr.range of our headphones by playing test tones in this range? My logic is: we have one driver (most headphones at least) which reproduces all frequencies so it doesn't matter what frequency we play, the driver works and there is a burn-in proces...- brat

Good soundstage?
What is good soundstage? Most of the recordings we listen to consist of instruments recorded in studio, then mixed and mastered. So how can we rate soundstage capabilities of audio gear? Maybe only with the few one point recordings that exist? Or just bigger = better?- brat

K701 bass mod: Mission impossible?
Are there any successful attempts in improving K701's bass? I couldn't find such a thread here... I love my k701s but the bass is just terrible for heavy metal, electronics or any pop music. Although it's tight, textured and goes deep I find it insufficient and lacking impact. I'd like to...- brat

Fun reference headphones
Usually "fun" and "reference" headphones are contrasted. Maybe the high-end is so serious phenomenon that is capable to deliver only intellectual feast but not common pleasure. Do you think that there're high-end fun headphones? Edit: Do you see any discrepancy between high-end and fun?- brat

HD800 vs K701 - a bass issue
Can anyone compare the bass of these headphones? I love my AKGs, but I don't listen to them because of the recessed midbass which makes almost all modern music unlistenable...
