So I have been using the Audio Technica M-50's for awhile and I like them a lot. However I am just antsy for something new. I've been considering the Sennheiser Momentums. So any other suggestions would be nice.

Hello, let me start off by saying i am pretty new to the "audiophile" world but i love music, so i have decided to get some new headphones. The last week or so i've spent my nights researching what headphones should fit me best. What i've come up with is the HD600 or the HD598. Firstly, let me...

I currently use a cheap xonar dg with a pair of HD 518's as a cheap solution while i was looking for a better job. now that i have that, im looking to finalize my setup with a xonar stx and one of the following sennheiser cans: hd650, hd600, hd 598. my question is how much better is the 598...

Just grabbed a pair of HD598s from Amazon, lightly used from a seller with about 92% positive feedback. Came with no box, and they seem bassier than I was expecting...does anyone know anything about fake HD598s?

I mainly listen to rock music and would like an open headphone and am not sure what to get... Help! :-) Djlaz7:-)

Hi guys, i need your help to recommend some of the budget headphone that suit for classical and vocal music. I prefer those could give a relaxing sound and comfort to wear since i feel that my sony V7506 is quite sharp and hard to have a long and relax time for listening to music. my budget is...

Sorry, I'm new at this...      Hi! I need some nice headphones ($200 to $400 range) and I'm hoping someone here can help. I've been lurking here for years, but am just now posting... Just for some background, I'm very much into music; I have very good ears and use both speaker setups and...

Hello there. In my eternal quest for a nice headphone, I'm now standing before a difficult choice. I currently own the Sennheiser HD650 and HD555 (mod). Previously I've owned AKG K501, AKG K702 and Beyerdynamic DT770 pro. The HD650 is relatively new, I've owned them for a month or so. But to...

As far as I have seen there is no place in California (at least the Orange County area) to go and demo headphones. In fact, the brick and mortar shops don't carry them unless your looking for ear buds or Beats. I have heard about the upcoming CanJam,but right now it looks like I may not be able...

Just a quick thread to see what people who have had both at the same time think. Which did you prefer? What were the main musical sonic differences? Which did you feel were better for gaming? Just looking for a nice cheaper headphone for multipurpose needs.   Cheers.

i currently own HD598, ie8 and a moded galaxy s with supercurio's mod and it souns awsome but it kinda lacks something, so im torn between buying an amp ibasso d4/d6 to use it as a dac also, or buying a hifiman player 601/602, more 601 than 2nd but i heard they are not so reliable and good but...

.

So I am debating between the HD598 and the DT880 (600ohm). I listen to a lot of pop-punk, punk, elctronica, indie, and some dubstep. Not looking for bass that shakes my face but I want to feel each bass kick and the full range of the drums. Thought? Thanks guys. 

Ok so I just got a pair of Sennheiser HD 598s and love them.  I wasn't sure about the open back or long cable so I also bought a pair of Klipsh Image One's for portable use.  I told myself that unless these Sennheisers are amazing I need to take them back (I spent WAY too much money on...

Hello people. So i am leaning toward Senns HD598. Firstly, my plan was to use them with Little Dot MK IV But then found, that low impedance headphones doesnt like tube amps because tube amp cant give them enough current.   Is it really like that? What can i expect from that combo...

the clip can drive the hd598??

I got the Hd598 and I love them, but I am looking for a amp/dac combo for max 200$ (250$ if it really worth it). I will use it with my computer, so I only need usb input.   Thanks for you suggestions 

I'm both impressed and unimpressed with my Ear Force DSS.  It is a fantastic driver, and it's implementation of Dolby Headphone works great.  However, its lack of ability to adjust settings or switch to DH-1 really bothers me.  For example, DH-2 causes horrible echo/reverb when using Skype.  ...

I want an amp, and also a good dac for my hd598 -they sound pretty good from my onboard soundcard, but there is a slight hiss and something is missing for me...   I listen mostly for classical music, and I also play computer games with them sometimes. My budget is around  250$. I can spend...

    I was reading the review for the Sennheiser HD 598 and was wondering about their setup. They are using a Onkyo TX-SR805 receiver, a Schiit Audio Asgard headphone amplifier, along with a ipod. I plan on purchasing these headphones soon, and I am using a ~200 receiver. Will that amplifier...

During my research on possible amps for the 598, I came across a lot of people recommending the Fiio e9.  I don't plan on using the usb fuction with a computer or an e7, it will be likely only be used for amping direct from my fuze and e11   I'd like to use the e11 as a pre amp instead of...

So first off I'm gonna admit I know absolutely nothing about GOOD headphones and I just recently decided to make the switch from $5 no name brands to something more high quality.   The reason I'm posting is because when listening to my headphones I get this grainy, staticy noise on certain...

The title pretty much sums it up. Currently I have an old pair of DT 770 Pro-80s using a Asus Xonar DG (the one with the built-in headphone amp), and before that they were using a X-fi XtremeGamer (not the weak XtremeAudio) . Probably due to wearing glasses, the clamping force on them becomes...

Hi,   I'm usually a fan of speakers, but I'm away for the summer and have to have headphones at work. Thus, I bought the Sennheiser HD598s thinking that would suffice until I got back to my home setup. But I got a nasty surprise when they sounded really terrible!   I have good reason to...

I just got my 598's and I'm loving them, they sound great. Now I'm thinking about investing in an amp/DAC for them, but I don't know anything about amps and DAC's. I saw in this thread that someone got the uDAC2, would be that be good for these? I see a lot of E9/E7 combo recommendations. I'm...
