Hey, I've got my Fidelios X2HR recently. I sold my original X2 a while ago due to harsh trebble. But I loved the sound so much I now got my hands on x2HR. I listen to them trough fiio e10k dac ( and boy they response so well to bass boost), I like the sound, but to my ears they sound exactly...

I'll give it a good listening and compare both of them. music wise it depends on my mood i listen a lot of genre, smooth jazz,classical(it gets f...annoying after a while but i like classical:) )rock,metal,dance....and im watching movies a lot at night. (X2 is great for that)watched Blade...

Thanks for your feedback! I thought I was going crazy for enjoing the x2 more. After all, my expectations were very high with 650 being #1 rated and praised all over the place. They are outstanding, I agree, but I find them only a little better, cleaner, tighter, smoother than my hd555 that I've...

Any Idea if the x2HR changed the sound? I owned the x2 and had to return them due to harsh/peaky treble response witch fatigues me after 10 min. I now own senn hd650 and I find x2 far superior in bass, separation, soundstage fun factor. If only we could have 650 smoothness in x2. Maybe there is...

Hey, where did you get them for 135 eur? I'd like to grab them for this price too!

oh, I'm even more confused now. You are right I'm looking  for exiting headphones and mm-400 is a bit steep. I had mdr1a for a while and loved its sound a lot. Although I had some comfort issues, and the bass ports wouldnt let me listen to them outdoors- the wind would make whistling sounds (...

Hi! Thanks for review! I was going to order those, but after reading your review I have second thoughts. The thing is I hate harsh/peaky trebble ( that is why i'm getting rid of otherwise gorgeous fidelio x2) and your review states that M2 do have some treble problems. I am confused now, because...

No you don't, they are very efficient, even your mobile device can drive them good.

Hey everyone I just wanted to report this HP to be really great, I liked them a lot. Smooth balance, great bass/impact, comfy treble, nice detail. Overall sq is fantastic, build quality is very nice also.   But today I returned them despite all their greatness. For me the deal breaker is the...

So after some research and consideration I bought mdr-1a. Love the sound, the bass seems a little too emphasized though.  I tried m50x which I had comfort issues with, and some ultrasone perfomance series, but the sound didnt live up to my expectations.And I think it is always a good idea to go...

Well, seems to me the 880 model should be refined version of 860&840. And its something everybody should consider ( but boy, its pricey). If it was not for piercing highs, i could go for 860. Oh, and it was a good point about breaking-in, but you know, I'd expect 300$ headphones to sound great...

Hello again, everyone. Im posting my impressions from listening 840 and 860 for an hour, maybe this will help somebody. So I went to the store  with the cash enough to buy 840 or 860 model and with an intention to compare them and decide which one I want. I really tried to love them, but i...

Hi everyone! I'm looking to buy a perfomance series 840/860. But there is not enough reviews and info on the web. In this thread i see people talking mainly about 880 and 840. im particulary interested in 860 model as i can get it at the same price as 840 (and 880 are not sold where i live) ...
