Indeed, that's the one I have in mind. From what I've read, if you're on the go, it's the one to go for period. I'll still have to wait a few weeks until I sell the bluetooth headset I got, or pay my overdrafted credit card.

Haha, no, I'm from Mexico. Still, no Quad DAC. After a few days, here are my impressions of the vanilla G6 so far: The amp is really powerful, it can get really loud. Unfortunately the DAC isn't up to snuff: go past 60%, and the sound starts to distort. At full volume, it reaches deafening...

Deleted for double posting. So sorry :(

The V30 has not even been released in my country. In the meantime, the V20 is for some reason, way more expensive than the G6. So, as much as I have dreamed of getting a V series device since the original V10, I'll have to wait a little longer. I wish I could wait a few months to save more...

Has anybody tried the international version of the G6? As it is now, I cannot afford paying the phone full price plus shipping costs, and my carrier is having a promo with the device approximately $80 off, plus a free LG Pro Tone bluetooth headset, a cover case and screen crack insurance for 6...

In the Momentum thread, there were several similar opinions claiming that the Momentum over-ear (either the original or the M2) sound like a closed HD650, there should be a reason why this opinion is so constant.

Never said so, did I? Just said I'm sure it will sound better than stock.

Ironically enough, most people praise the original 518/558/598 earpads, while to me, sometimes they get itchy; also, because of the rounded edges, they don't seal well. On the other side, the 569 earpads look much more comfy, and the flat surface surely makes them seal better. I bet these...

Boy do the QB3 arw good for exercise. Those are the best IEMs I've ever uswd when excercising. They are comfy to wear and they never fall off, which is one of the main issues I have when looking for something to work out with.

The HD599 looks very elegant (except for that belt buckle, but whatever), but for that price, I expect it to sound better than the HD600, which doesn't seem to be the case. Although Sennheiser has not clarified whether the new 5x9 uses the same drivers as the 5x8 series or not, there are some...

You know, that's really sad. Such a good headphone to vanish... But like you said, now we have some beautiful collector pieces, a joy to the eyes and ears.

At 90 euros, it's a steal. Last year, even after the M2 was released, the cheapest I could get them for was $230. Just make sure it's not a fake one, I read that the red and black model heavily suffers from lots of fakes goind around.

Read again they review. They spent they entre review criticising they lack of a carrying case and a remote control, and they they take away SEVERAL points just because if this, as if suddenly portability was more importante than sound quality and confort. They are not objective, because they...

Are You sure that's a "pro" review? The way they repeteadly complain about how "poor" the HD598 performs on the go because of its unforgivable mistake of being open-backed, non-foldable and with no in-line controls, makes it look like they intended to review a pair of fashion headphones and...

- Real Paul McCartney vs Faul McCartney (also, the Beatles vs solo Beatles) - Syd Barret's Punk Floyd vs Roger Water's Floyd vs David Gilmour's Pink Floyd - Mod rockers The Who vs rock opera Who - Nasal Bob Dylan vs growly Bob Dylan - Folk rock David Bowie vs psychedelic Bowie vs proto-metal...

It is. Gets quite loud from my LG G4, you'd be surprised at how efficient these cans are. Just don't expect to take them to the streets.

I don't know the actual specs, but people say that one of the best pairings for the 598 is the Schitt Magni2 and Modi2 stack. Double benefit since it's very budget-friendly: you can have a champion DAC/amp combo for 200 bucks. If you want to add tubes, you can replace the Magni for the Vali for...

LazyListener Remember I said back then, when I had the chance to compare the two models, that the only difference I noticed was that the ivories I tested had metal screws while my SE have plastic screws? Well, it turns out I was wrong. It's metal screws just as well, but the black matte...

I hope I can get my hands on the X2. But that will be later on, as of now,Iv'm in love with my Senns.

That would be much appreciated :)

Did you tear apart the cloth,or did you manage to save it for a possible undo? Also, some pics would be nice. I couldn't remove the spiderweb-like brace, so I gave up with the mod (otherwise, I would have needed to tear the cloth). I might try it again later, though.

You're welcome! Hope you do the jump and join the 598 fanclub!:)

However, at the start of every review there is a banner that says, "Version" or something like that, that specifies which version of the product was purchased by the reviewer, so even though the reviews are placed together, each individual review makes it clear which version that particular...

Nevertheless, the guy who did it say that, while not much of an upgrade, there WAS indeed some improvement (IIRC, he reported airier treble and a more accurate soundstage), if only so slightly. Also, with the driver fully exposed, a la HD600-800, the modded 598 look really sexy. Also, like...

The only mod that I know is the soundstage mod by removing the cloth with the "S" logo. However, after it was reported by one user in here, it was never talked about again. I attempted to do it a few days ago, but I nearly ruined my headphones so I gave up. The guy who did it said there was not...
