    NEW 2015 - HIFIMAN HE400S

    Hifiman dont know that all they had to make is another He400 without the treble peak and it will be the best headphone ever, in mid tier range atleast.   Im just passing by to survey headphones that can complement my old He400, now Im thinking to get this or the HD600, are the HE400S neutral...

    2 years ago I got myself Hifiman HE400, and Aune T1 MK2 DAC, Ive been using the 2 ever since, right now finally I have some spare money to spend.   Recently I wonder if a new amp can benefit my headphone to be used alongside the T1, like is it already fully driven?  Actually I have no issue...

    Yea I actually like the stock sound, the pleather makes the background more dark and there is some kind of impact when the music wants to, the velour doesnt deliver this, it feels hollow and dull, the vocals sound weird. Right now Im using the jergpads, it is alot better now

    So I can no longer stand listening to the stock velour pads and decided to go to the extreme, which to turn both my pleather and velour pads into a pair of Jergpads!     Can see the worned out pleather.     YES I can totally understand the hype from 2 years ago, its literally a new...

    **Hifiman HE-400 Impressions and Discussion Thread**

    The pleather pads just grew in me, I dont have any problem, but Im going to get the velour pads anyway because why not, its just Im not rushing anything.

    HE-400 bass not as present as I expected

    If u are expecting Mike Tyson's might as well get a bassy closed can, open headphones in general have their other appealing characteristics more worth mentioning, like its instrument separation and transparency. When I first got the HE400, Im underwhelmed by its bass too, but as time goes on, I...

    HE-400 bass not as present as I expected

    The bass on HE400 is just right, that solid and fast jab are nice to my ears.

    HE 400 or Sennheiser 600?

    I have the HE400, in my experience yes it may not appeal to some people, that explains the mixed review, why? It pumps the bass and the treble, so the mids are somewhat recessed, if you like your music rich in mids, avoid it, get the HD600, for me, I dont mind at all, because although its a bit...

    Are you serious? Mine is on the lowest gain and the volume knob halfway max, and its loud enough for me, any louder will get uncomfortable...

    **Hifiman HE-400 Impressions and Discussion Thread**

    From the moment I got the HE400 I never tried playing with the EQ, because I never get annoyed enough to use it, so just now I thought why not trying out fellow head fier EQ config, so decided to try your config. Yes, this does tame the sibilance, but then again, it trimmed out all the edges I...

    **Hifiman HE-400 Impressions and Discussion Thread**

    Ive been listening my HE400 in stock form, the highs and the recessed mids are sometimes disturbing, but I dont think its a big problem to me, I dont know, maybe because the cool things from these cans easily make up for those drawbacks, the highs also give much impact to the songs I listen...

    I need a good tube for my HE400, something that can tame the highs and less aggressive, and probably bigger soundstage too, any recommendations?

    **Hifiman HE-400 Impressions and Discussion Thread**

    Your HE400 impression is spot on, these cans just give so much energy and punch to the music, a build up in an electronic track is never a thing for me, now it is like a roller coaster ride, I can feel it getting intense especially when I am anticipating it, just blows my mind. Yes I do...

    From what I read majority of people can't hear the difference, however there are people who certain that they hear it, for me, I don't really care, as long as the cable serve its purpose it's fine for me. Oh I forgot there is a headphone that benefit from recabling, its Phillips Fidelio x1...

    Exactly what happened to me today, its been 2 weeks too for me, and omg I am getting chills all over, the imaging and details pretty much on a new level, and the bass, I swear the drums were not this good when I first listen to them, the vocals are much detailed now that it strike me so...
