Please have HD650 mids with HD650 treble smoothness and HD800 bass texture. One can dream right?

No. Headphones with bigger soundstages are more of a perception from a leaner sound also some other factors. It has more to do with the quality of the driver. Detail has nothing to do with the perception of stage whether it's closer or far away. Headphones with larger stages also tend to have...

I personally didn't like the US at all. They sound even more muffled in the lower mids and compressed. The Boost pads sound more uneven than both but more musical and fun. I like the Boost myself.

Nope If you want an upgrade you should probably upgrade your DAC and Amps with the HD650 to take them to the next level. If you want an upgrade in micro detail, resolution, speed then maybe look into the HD800 but you will lose out on tone, balance and musicality.

Really? I like the MA900 a lot but agree it was grainy, it's been a good 3 years since I've heard one though. The MA900 sounded pretty unique to me it's design made it have a weird soundstage that I liked, it's resolution wasn't really that great, a tier below the AKG K7 variants but I got mine...

Nice! I need more time with the Atticus but it was for sure more to my taste than the Eikon. How you finding them compared to your hawks? I thought the hawks has better technicalities than the Eikon the Eikon has better balance and FR. I didn't really compare Atticus to NH so will be good to...

Yeah I've heard the Z1R. It's better than the Z7 for sure. It still has that Sony upper mid glare. I didn't like it at first but the more I listened I quite enjoyed it. My problem with it is the price, it's not as resolving as the HD800, HD6XX or Elear high open headphones do generally have the...

This new website layout sucks! Editing is now a chore. Anyway I'll hear the 1990 at some point hopefully soon. Yeah the HD650 is very smooth in the treble but there is a bit of upper mid ringing, only a tad but they can sound a bit shouty with some music in that region compared to say a HD800...

I don't think I've heard the 1990 I did here the closed version 1770? Well made headphone. 1990 is attractive

There's a lot of knowledgeable people on here for sure. I know of many that are scared to speak out...it's sad really..I've never really cared, my honest opinion has gotten me far in my life and I know many who appreciate honesty even if they don't admit it. Yeah I've seen you mention Beyers a...

Kman that's true there is a high population here. I product of that is a lot of misinfoatmion and quality information and it can take a while to dig down and find that quality information. I do find headfi a good source of info for casual listeners and those just looking for a good quality...

Inthere why do you always contradict yourself and trip over yourself? You are all over the place half the time. You seem more angry than most. First you said I lost my temper now I don't...which is it? It's got nothing to do with you why I'm here, DO you even know why my account got wiped...

Again you are exaggerating everything. This site is plauged with over positive reviews and high S/N and there's about 3 people you can count on to get honest impressions. My post is proof you can't say any negative others you get blames for crapping on a headphone lol I've also now been...

Seems people can handle a bit of honesty. The weird thing here is people can't seem to take people mentioning faults it's actually quite sad. You moan because because I actually know what I'm talking about will call negativities out. The thing is I've a really praised these headphones that...

I just like music whether it's live or recorded. I tend to like small inn type pubs with an acoustic singer filling the room adding to the atmosphere; hearing the sound of a drink poured and the low mumbles of the other people it all adds to the room. When I look for a headphone I tend to go for...

Why do people always assume headphones have an upgrade path? Some do yes but when you get to the HD650, HD800 level you really are looking at different flavours.         I've never heard another headphone with the HD650's resolution and cohesive response and smooth treble. I've heard...

Where did you order the SDR from? please PM me

It's why I like Skylar's philosophy. Headphones have become too "analytical" with too much focus on tiny details     This isn't the same as hearing every tiny detail, that comes from resolution and micro detail from a good quality driver. Skylar says many headphones have treble focus sound...

I've never found the HD800 soulless just annoying to listen to with the wrong track. What the HD800 does so well is create a space, it's like there's no restrictions to the sound and notes can just come out of thin air -  they don't sound like speakers strapped to your heads. Sennheiser...

The Groove sucks. I would recomemd the Modi Multibit + Vali 2 minimum for getting a taste of what the 650 can do.

Yeah I hope they fix the tone. I dont find any of 2016 LCD-2/X/3 resolving HPs. My HD800 and 650 resolve better. What I want is Audeze to return to the sound that made them.

Well played Your Grace.

You can post a cartoon horse getting banged by Miley Cyrus if you want. All I can say is you love some brightness so im not suprised.

Have you not considered the fact that every headphone your own in your signature has peaks bigger than Will Smiths crotch? I'm not surprised natural sounds veiled with those on your head.
