Well, I've put quite a few hours on these babies. Great all around cans! I've gotta say... This thread made me drag my Avid 102 loudspeakers out of closet, and I've fallen in love with them all over again. Got them hooked up to the living room setup, and had an extra krk 10" subwoofer that I...

And ALAC. :)

Yes! I think I'd really like that experience and could probably learn a tremendous amount from it! The HD 650s came in right before noon today, so have basically been running non stop for 11 hours. They've been on my head for 5 or so of those hours. Ahhhh, I love these cans! Soundstage isn't...

Upon my research of the Cary 300sei, though beautifully conceived and implemented, and quite useful for my application, it didn't take me long to realize it's just financially too much of an investment for this guy. I'm on a somewhat strict budget I guess it would be fair to say! Lol

Sounds like a plan, UPS will be dropping them off tomorrow, and I'll be putting multiple hours on them daily (as well as burning them in when not in use.) I understand what you're saying about a mid bass emphasis, but flat is a relative term in my opinion. From my limited experience with the...

Hmmm, the ability to drive full sized speakers is a plus. I've got some old school Avid 102s that could use a nice warm source. I've been wanting to expiriment but hadn't gotten there yet. Could you compare the Cary 300sei to the bottlehead crack, or any of the other popular ones from schiit or...

lol!

Hello All,   Finally I have some HD 650's on their way to me. I'm very excited! :) To most of you guys they're just average, everyday headphones (or worse,) but they will be my go-to reference, casual listening, even mixing headphones!   I've read a lot about the "scalability" and...

I've finally got the HD 650s on the way to me and man am I excited!   Ive seen mentioned on this thread numerous times before that the ALO Continental is a great pairing with the 650's, but I haven't found much specific info on sound signature of the combo, or why the two are a good pair.   ...

I mostly use iDevices; assuming you can plug it in through a powered USB hub...   Though that's not very convenient, the VRM box sells for $55 right now, and my experience with the semi-pro audio stuff is that it's usually well executed in design and parts, and sounds very good for the price...

Cool read!! Thanks!!

Very good feedback! I've got roughly 80 hours on mine through all sorts of different sources. They have really settled down quite nicely. I'll listen to A LOT of music in an average day. It seems like lately if I hear high frequency harshness it's when paired with the continental v2 and...

Glad to hear you're happy! How many hours have you put on them? How would you compare them to your other cans as far as sound quality? What areas do they not hang as well? Also, have you come to a conclusion yet regarding the better source setup for them in your opinion? I'm sure the Lyr is...

KLJ, It sounds like your buddy may have had the Denon AH D2000s, which are well regarded on here. Do some research on them. The P7s are not easy cans to compare to many others. It's easy to compare studio cans, which are generally supposed to be flat and extremely transparent. The P7s are...

For those concerned about isolation, it's not bad at all. My partner is very sensitive to sound leakage in bed. She couldn't handle the Shure 840s, but the P7s to her sound very similar to the Sennheiser HD 380 Pros, which in my opinion are great isolators. The P7s don't isolate as well, but...

I could see the 720 getting the job done. These P7s open up surprisingly well for closed cans!

So what are you bad boys finding to be a good portable amp/DAC pairing with these cans? So far I'm really liking the original SOLO > RSA Shadow via copper interconnect. The Continental V2 is a horrible pairing. The microstreamer doesn't sound bad, but so far I'm really liking the SOLO and...

Also, "DLZ" IMO is a good test for prat as well. One of my reference songs, obviously. That organ that sounds so awesome a minute in on nice systems isn't heard well in most run of the mill car systems, just as one example. That's one of the great idiosyncrasies of music/sound...

Great stuff!! So fascinating, this sound stuff is, huh? A bit off topic, but check out "DLZ" by TV on the Radio. The organ coming through about a minute in is so awesome!! Back on topic, in my limited experience with iems I feel like they are pretty clear cut. Right in your ear, and no bs...
