Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 6XX headphones. Like new. Had a very short while (a few weeks) and purchased Beyerdynamic DT 1990. HD 6XX has been stored in its case and box for a year or so, since that time. Included will be the 6XX, stock cable and custom Corpse Cable (Mogami) cable, which was $155...

Thanks for the great info and suggestions Phthora! Yeah... the yoga blocks work fine for me. I think mainly they are good for getting the Vanatoos up off the desktop surface. I don't need much in the way of isolation from bass vibrations because I have the Vanatoos setup on the shelved mode...

After a few years of only using headphones, I recently bought some active/amplified desktop speakers. Needing some advice on setting volume levels of 3 components in a connected chain. Any help/explanation would be greatly appreciated. PC/Windows 10 JDS Labs El DAC II JDS Labs El Amp II...

Amazon is including an "Exclusive Mode" option, which you have to activate/choose if you want to use it, each time you use the Amazon desktop player. Is their "Exclusive Mode" not WASAPI or ASIO?

Thanks for the replies Bernard23! Much appreciated.

Thanks for the informative reply and suggestions! Yes, Amazon definitely has a larger music library but I'm going to stay with Qobuz for now, as I do find that its sound quality is slightly but noticeably better than Amazon. Quality over quantity? lol When I did a free trial of Qobuz several...

I've spent almost a month now, trying to decide between subscriptions to Amazon Music HD or Qobuz streamed through Audirvana. I really should make a decision as to which one to keep because paying for both seems pretty silly. That acknowledged, to me there seems to be a noticeable audio quality...

Sorry about the accidental repeat postings...

While I have yet to attempt any EQing, absolutely loving my DT 1990s with the Dekoni Elite Hybrids mounted on them. Last night. I spent some time comparing the sound quality of the 1990 with the A pads, the Dekoni Elite Velours and then back to the Dekoni Elite Hybrids. All with no EQ yet but...

Congratulations on your new stack! May you have many hours of musical enjoyment with them!

It's been a while since I lasted posted in this topic. Since I just made some changes, thought I'd update, which might be relevant to someone. I received a new El Amp II from JDS Labs yesterday. Curiosity got the best of me and I got the El Amp II to replace my Atom Amp. Now the "El Stack II" is...

Definitely no expert but I felt the analytical pads, although having a bit less bass than the balanced pads, seemed more open and "alive". The difference was to me very noticeable, upon switching from the balanced to the analytical, with the 1990 seeming to become more sparkling, with airy...

Sorry.... duplicate posting

As I indicated above, I’m extremely satisfied and impressed. From the first song played, with the Elite Hybrids mounted on the 1990, I was hooked. Had a many hours listening session last night and for me, the transformation was terrific, across all musical genres. The wearing comfort, even with...

Received a new pair of Dekoni Elite Hybrid ear pads a few hours ago. Like I mentioned above, I have really been enjoying the Dekoni Elite Velours. For me, the first song listened to, with the Elite Hybrids was a very surprising revelation! The low end on the DT 1990, with the Elite Hybrids is...

Using a Beyerdynamic 1990 Pro headphone, a JDS Labs El AMP II and Atom headphone amp, I listened pretty extensively to Amazon Music HD, Qobuz (with its own player and through Audirvana) and Tidal HiFi / Audirvana. For available library, 1. Amazon Music HD, 2. Tidal HiFi, 3. Qobuz. Just randomly...

I purchased a pair of Dekoni Elite Hybrids, while I had the Beyer DT 1770 and ended up returning them fairly quickly, as I didn't like the sound quality, with them on the 1770. Currently have the DT 1990, using Dekoni Elite Velour pads, after having used the Analytical pads for several months...

Yes, that's it.

Any findings on sound quality with these in the DT 1990 yet? What did you ask for when ordering from Beyerdynamic? Part # ?

I would suggest that you contact them either by phone or email. Their website jdslabs.com has a customer support page accessed through a drop down menu, on the upper left hand corner of their website’s homepage. When I have had questions, I’ve called and emailed them. Through the emails /...

I have my Atom amp sitting on top of a JDS El DAC II. Both the amp and DAC remain cool to touch through hours of use.

Removing the mounting ring is quite easy. I remove the pads that I am dismounting and then use either a small flat head screw driver or the tip of a small butter knife and insert the tip into the groove space, into which the pad mounting "skirt" edge fits. Gently pry the groove open, using...
