Yeah it’s fine, I only really use the dongle for in-bed listening which I use headphones to help relax me for a good sleep. I think Sennheiser swapped around 2021 to the new pads (the new clear plastic vs old matte black mounting ring on the pads) on all 6xx series headphone I found they...

Yeah, you're never always sure what headphone you're going to gravitate towards. A headphone can be good but it just doesn't grab you and sometimes an inferior headphone just causes you to listen to it more and you end up liking it more. Sometimes leaving a headphone alone makes you realize...

I hear a lot about Helldivers 2. Haven't gotten around to playing it, though I tend to focus more on MMO's and RPG's personally. Though I do occasionally play shooters, racing games, and RTS (not as much as I used to though). It's not very often you get a wow factor and a non-fatiguing sound. I...

Though whats ironic, I talk about the HD 650 being boring I do still like the headphone and if it comes down to it, I think it will be the HD 6xx headphone I would keep for a couple reasons. One it's the least fatiguing of the HD 6xx lineup for me, it's my 'chill' listening headphone, and also...

These are my top 6 headphones currently, I listen to all of these very frequently. Some are undecided on ranking as they are new but I like them enough I am confident they will stay in my top 6 most liked headphones. The top headphone will likely not change, it's been my favorite for over 3...

Honestly seems to be a lot of headphones aiming for the 'super' HD 650 tuning, but the HD 650 is the most boring of the HD 6xx lineup for me, hopefully they don't have the HD 650 'boring' factor to them. I think the musicality is related moreso to PRaT than just FR tuning though, that's...

Can't swap pads between the DT 700 Pro X and the DT 770 Pro, different pad mounting mechanisms. The foams can be swapped though. There is a headphone that exists that will answer that quest, the DT 770 Pro X Limited Edition. It has the Stellar.45 drivers in a DT 770 chassis. Though it's drivers...

True it basically is some sort of paper and aluminum foil, lol. But they sound so good once you mod them. It is, I was delving into Senns for a while, now back with Beyers. Been spending time with the DT 700 and DT 900 Pro X. Those are actually very consistent drivers, Beyer finally truly...

It's such a weird driver and the threaded magnet lets you adjust the magnet distance from voice coil thus altering the sound.

I had an early one myself, was funner to listen to but at the same time fatiguing to listen to. Newer ones are fairly flat and not that energetic. Maybe I won the lottery on mine and got one with excellent soundstaging because it's consistent across systems. But honestly been gravitating back...

Do you have an old or recent HD 660S? The newer ones after the pad refresh have by far the widest soundstage of the HD 6xx series to me. My HD 660S is a 2022/3 pair. The early ones were intimate and a bit too energetic in the upper mids to my ears. My HD 660S2 soundstage is around the same size...

Yeah, very solid in their price range. Not quite R70x good in terms of imaging but very good and better than most in the price point range. The HD 660S/660S2 are mid-tier Beyer level in terms of imaging which is very good as Beyer’s excel at imaging. The R70x is basically the best at imaging in...

The Amiron Home imho is a gem among its price range. The DT 880 need the right amp to shine, their treble is very system sensitive. But the old rapid reflex Beyers do have sharper treble than the Tesla and Stellar.45 Beyers. The T1.3 is quite uniquely tuned and a very warm sounding headphone...

That is definitely another factor. I like my HD 660S2 for a more intimate presentation, though it’s not quite as intimate as the HD 600/650. I personally tend to prefer Beyers presentation of often being more in-between an intimate and distant presentation for instance, it’s also one reason why...

Could be how the treble is presented they didn’t like or something like that. I have noticed they developed stronger opinions about treble over the years at least based on watching them. I do like their reviews myself I just don’t personally agree with many. I just keep in mind I disagree or...

Oh I know the reviewers you are talking about, I think the complaints they had are related to the treble. I found I don't really agree with their opinions in many cases though, so I need to wait for more impressions personally.

Yeah they are hit or miss in terms of comfort it seems. They work for me thankfully and are my most comfortable headphone, I don’t have problems with earcup depth due to the slightly angled drivers. But many do find the earcup opening a bit too small and find the comfort suffers for many due to...

Been spending a lot of time with the HD 660S2 lately, really starting to like and appreciate them more. Took a bit to get them just right on my system but now I am satisfied fully with them.

Yeah so it's a catch 22, I really like how it portrays vocals and mids and it's the HD 6xx headphone I want to listen to the most but my ears protest with it. My ears don't like strong upper mids sadly, I'm more sensitive to upper mids and lower treble than upper or mid treble. With the HD 650 I...

The HD 600 is tied with the HD 660S2 as my favorite of the HD 6xx line. But sadly it's upper mids/lower treble cause me listening fatigue so it's not my main HD 6xx headphone. If not for that it would likely be my most used HD 6xx headphone as it sounds the most organic of the HD 6xx headphones...

Curious what you think about them compared to the DT 700/900 Pro X. Of the Beyers I've owned the DT 831, DT 440 (late production, black grill, and DT 660/860 headband), and DT 480 (owned an 8 Ohm, 25 Ohm, and 200 Ohm) are probably the more uncommon Beyers I've owned. Currently in terms of...

My current setup. Lake People G111 MKII, Schiit Magni Heretic, and Schiit Modi Multibit 2. The two headphones I’m using at the moment the HD 660S2 and DT 700 Pro X (new).

I think that's a case of people making an educated guess on it due to lack of information. Problem is the lack of comparisons not to mention there is going to be at least some variance in how different people perceived soundstage and separation on a given headphone. There is usually a general...

No one has really been saying there is no difference though. There are likely some inherent sonic characteristics shared if the same driver is used but doesn’t mean they sound similar. If anything what this proves is the importance of implementation. I simply care about knowing the technical...

I was told by JermoK that it was the same and gives a lot more information. "The highest performance version of it sits in the HD 560S, with the new polymer blend diaphragm and a very light aluminium voice coil. This transducer is also implemented without changes in the NDH 30. However, Neumann...
