Hi Guys,   last week was horrible for me, i've spotted an Sennheiser HD 580 Jubilee complete with Box in decent condition, just read the announce 2 hours (!) too late and so it was gone for a price that low...you won't believe me. :-(( Apart from that, i've shot a Sennheiser HD 580...

I have these two Beyer headphones and they give me vastly different listening experiences. I always thought the DT770-Pro/80's were supposed to be the bass monsters of the series, but they simply are not able to perform at the level of the DT990 in my testing. The DT770s seem to have more...

Please only vote/comment if you have recent, first-hand experience with the specific headphone(s). Also, If you do find them "veiled", I would appreciate it if you could let me know by how much and give me an example of a pair of headphones that are not "veiled" to your ears?   Personally, I...

I'm a first time poster to this site. I'm looking for suggestions to upgrade my PC audio. I have a Dell Studio XPS 16 Laptop with MediaMonkey (%99 FLAC). After searching Head-Fi forums I've decided to buy a HRT MSii DAC (standard not +) and either a Nuforce Icon desktop amplifier or a Fiio e9...

I tryed searching the forums, but couldn't find a good answer to my question. I'm building a DIY cable for my HD-580's with some Canare quad conductor cable, Neutrix 1/4" Jack, Cardas HD580 earcup connectors. I wanted to ask the guru's here how they deal with connecting the braided shielding...

Hello all,   I've had my cans for a long time, more than a decade. I've only had to replace the wire once, for like $18. Still in great shape and comfy as ever and of course sound awesome. I've used them basically with computers and portable MP3 players over the years. Primarily though used...

Heya,   So I have a Vivid V1 DAC/AMP that I picked up used here on Head-Fi. Lovely little DAC/AMP. I picked it up after getting some information that it would drive my HD580's very nicely. I've had my HD580's for over a decade. I wanted to be able to start taking them portable with me so I...

I have a set of HD-580's and almost cirtainly decided to get a LD MKIII as I just could not find a suitable all in one combo (DAC/AMP/Preamp) that I liked.  I think the LD MKIII will be a great fit for the HD 580's as I love the warm nice full sound they give.    Since im a little over...

Short version: trying to hook up my new Denon AVR 591 and Denon DVD 1930Ci player for the first time, I had turned the volume up accidentally and when I hit play the volume in the Sennheiser HD 580 headphones was way too high--actually painful. I shut it down and started over. I noticed in FM...

Heya,   Looking to see if I can get some information here. I have a Vivid V1 Tech portable DAC/AMP that I use usually. I'm acquiring a Little Dot MKIII amp to help power my HD580's and future higher impedance headphones. I use my V1 as my portable setup with my Beyer DT770 Pro 80's. Love...

Although I haven't had a problem with the stock cable on my HD580s, It's just way to stringy and I would like to "upgrade" to something with more durability (Maybe more aesthetically pleasing). However, I don't want to pay even $100 for a pair of headphones that cost me $100 to begin with. After...

I would like to buy a DAC to use with my PC and my HD-580's. I only need USB and 300$ is my limit. I will be using this DAC exclusively with my computer and not for music in particular. I listen to all kinds of stuff on my computer, mostly movies/videos and some electronic music. I guess I'm...

I'm looking for a new portable player. I was wondering if the HM601 will be able to drive my Sennheiser HD580s without an amp (not looking for new cans right now, I'm very happy with their sound out of my Headroom Total Bithead). The HD580s and HD600s sound almost identical, so I guess if it can...

It's as simple as this...   Why are peeps forking out loads o money on the new and very trendy orthodynamic headphones...   When they can have a near as perfect headphone like the K702 for a fraction of the cost?                 I can't fault them. A purists...

I've been reading posts and reviews on Head-fi for the past few weeks, trying to decide what the best amp/dac combination would be to get better sound from my computer and headphones.  (I have Sennheiser HD580s which I've generally been satisfied with).  From my reading I've concluded that one...

Hey everybody,   I came here three or four years ago in search of a great pair of headphones and a combo DAC/Amp to drive them; I've still got my 580's, but my audiophile dreams never came to fruition. I'm looking to right that injustice, but alas, times have changed! When I was last making...

Hey there everybody,   Had an incident involving my canine and 580 cables and I was wondering how I should go about replacing these suckers.   I've heard a lot about upgrading cables making a difference in SQ, but what am I going to have to pay for such an upgrade?   If I was looking...

Hey everybody,   This thread was also posted in the Dedicated Source Components forum, but wasn't getting any activity after being up for a day and a half. Figured I might try my luck over here.   I came here three or four years ago in search of a great pair of headphones and a combo...

I have a pair of HD580's coming in a couple of days but I'm not sure what amp to get that would go well with them. My price range is 100-200 dollars.

I have a pair of HD580s given me as a gift back in 2000 or so. All the cushions are totally shot, and the cable must also be gone as the sound drops out in the left channel and can sort of be made to come back by twisting and bending the cable right at the left plug.   Parts cost is about...

I have a pair of Sennheiser HD580 Precision's that I've owned for about 2 years now.. my first 'real' pair of headphones you might say, despite how old the model is. So, I've enjoyed how amazing they naturally sound plugged into my laptop's headphone jack.. but I'm looking to get more out of...

I've been using my Sennheiser HD-580 for about 5 years now. I've replaced the pads recently and just want to try something new plus one of the drivers is going out, it's starting to buzz (I've tried multiple sources). I love the sound of the senns, just would like something with a little tighter...

Ive been Running HD580's with 600 grillz and ive went through about 3 HD650 Cords " recently ordered 2 more "    Ive got some seriouse Hours on these suckers    I run them on my PC pushed by a Xonar Essence STX soundcard on "ExtraGain (+18Db 300-600ohmz). and mixture made sure both ears...
