Reporting back from Beijing.
 
I went to the Beyer shop in Beijing...and they didn't have it in sotck.
 
I was told that if I order it, they can get it shipped from Guangdong (not sure why it's Guangdong, Are these cans made in China?) in 4 days. But I'll be gone before then.
 
I can still order through their Taobao (Chinese ebay) website and get it delivered to my next destination.
 
I had hoped to audition them before buying so I'm not sure if I'll commit to buying a pair now since ordering it on the internet means I'll be buying blind.
 
Most of the regular audio stores here stock Sennheiser, AKGs and AT. There are two specialist shops in Beijing that stock more. There's even a store that has the R10, Baby Orpheus for audition (not for sale). Those stock Chinese brands such as Yuin. There's one that stocks all the funky brands (the Lehmann Matrix Clone etc). 

Prices here aren't that good. Only Chinese products are cheaper that what's on ebay. The international brands are similar to what people would pay in the US.
 
But I get a feeling that the Chinese audiophiles much prefer foreign brands...
 
Ok, I went OT! Back to the T50!

Any updates? This thread has been quiet for almost a week now.

 

[rasmushorn]

It will probably remain quiet for yet a couple of weeks until the T50's are out in the stores. But it should be soon now.... also waiting with anticipation!

Could a charitable soul translate / sum up from Chinese the comparison between a T50p and a HD25 (post 25) ?

Subject:
I try t50p am want to make a contrast with hd25, below am place of with the hd25 already distinction
 
Outward appearance -- The aspect is really does not have goes against, also dresses up is also high-level, weight aspect several good, not too heavy is not too light, above the belt is sound-insulated when not cartridge. No matter makes the merit to decide the outlook, is certainly better than hd25, only slightly dislikes the line young, has at the beginning of generation of super.fi the 5pro feeling


Sound field -- I good affirmed that the t50p sound field is only more extravagant than hd25, good has the sense of space, has with open earphone like hd650 wields. But is trades a big shortcoming under the extravagant sound field, is the d sound good empty, good not really, does not know everybody to be bright, along with whether there is a feeling? On the contrary hd25 compared to arrives at you well already to feel really, d sound good solid good powerful. Big earphone like hd650 already extravagant, and really, t50p 絕 cannot compare.

Analysis strength -- Aspect hd25 is really the defeat, the hd25 analysis strength is an above average grade, but is in front of t50p is really changes the left child, the t50p analysis system of forces to usually the pay attention already sound, 佢 will not be fearfully able to run comes out left prominently, the opening not too will be familiar with

High frequency -- hd25 both high frequency is compares the point, t50p on the clear spot, also but 佢 clear and does not bring the flavor ~~~ two earphones high frequency is not in brief the strong point

Intermediate frequency -- The opening can expect that 佢 the intermediate frequency compared to will already arrive at me to want already the sweet taste, to detect will be disappointed, but will contrast many earphones, 佢 the intermediate frequency performance department extremely will not be wrong. Otherwise hd25 compares does not have the sweet taste, but can carry over the singer already sentiment, because each sound good really, easy to feel the singer aspiration

Low frequency -- The aspect does not cause to speak hd25 to know 佢 bass is the good crazy line, one after next hits the Chest, therefore does not make the introduction. Instead wants to say already is t50p, 佢 already the bass hard submergence deep has dynamics, quantity hd25 have not been many, but the nature is high, bass just right, but was a pity that 佢 a low frequenciest section accidentally will already have well chaotic already felt, so long as the first song will have massive not frequency already bass, 佢 the bass analysis suddenly will already drop, makes a mess, but may under good fortune chaotic bass, the intermediate frequency analyze high as before. Will not know is the onamot hot pot has not opened, after hoping the hot pot will open, the chaotic bass situation to improve.

Individuality -- hd25 is maintaining the consistent sennheiser abundant sound bottom, in addition the little rough feeling, very much has the individuality. t50p has the very steady already sound bottom, three frequency averages, the analysis is extremely good, but slightly owes the individuality, has with the dt880 sound bottom little little resembles, but belt multi-spot analysis with bass

Summary: Already fixes a price by t50p, the little brother thought that 絕 to is worth, only buys an outward appearance, made the merit with the analysis strength already the over value. Has hd25 already me, after listening to t50p, good wants to buy returns to goes to town. Because is really light thin with sound-insulated, accidentally does not remember brings amp, pushes is not too bad, still has is straight hd25 is dynamic d, t50p on the gentle spot, uses all day long to have alternately mutually listens to the feeling dissimilar, knows excited ~~~ Finally the hope club may do a group to buy, and so on everybody may put down little little buys the heart to be good ~~ The little brother style is not good, hopes each excuse me.

  To the question:

I tried t50p all of you would like to make a comparison with the hd25, the following were on the line between both with hd25

Appearance - what aspects of true system without its top, good and high, the weight is quite good, too Well Well too light, take the first noise while You Wu chuck. Whether making power given appearance, certainly better than the hd25, just a bit line of young, first on behalf of the super.fi 5pro feeling

Sound field - I am sure that it is only t50p wider sound field than the hd25, both good sense of space, with open headphones such as the hd650 are a far cry. However, under the Department of the width of the sound field in exchange for a big drawback on, sound good on the line d empty, Hao Wu is, Do not know you Wu Ming Ming and day activity with or without it a feeling? Instead hd25 than the feeling that it is neither Hello, d good strong solid sound good. Great headset if hd650 both wide and is, t50p must not be compared.

Analytical - it really lines total defeat respect hd25, hd25 analytical lines are superior, but really, Department, Department t50p change left before the children, t50p analysis system of forces will be terrible to note that both peacetime Well the sound of the left channel will run out of good prominent, not even the beginning too accustomed

HF - hd25 compare both the high-frequency line tip, t50p on the round a bit, but they brought round both impede drainage charm ~ ~ ~ not even a word of two high-frequency line strengths headset

IF - IF only the beginning of drainage would be expected than to I want to both sweet and points found they are all disappointed, but the contrast a lot of headphones, the Drainage Department have very 唔错 frequency performance. Instead hd25 no more than sweet, but it will better convey the feelings of both singers, as each tone is really good, easy to feel the singers voice

Low frequency - needless to say what aspects of hd25 bass lines are good that she is crazy line, the next in fighting heart, so do not be introduced. But would like to say both systems t50p, channels both the hard dive deep bass with the intensity, volume and more, but not hd25 high quality, bass just right, but unfortunately, the lowest frequency channel will have a good chance not only a sense of confusion not only as long as the song a lot both different frequency bass, channel bass of both will be a sudden drop, whack, but fortunately disorder bass, the analysis of high frequency is still high. Do not know of the microphone is not open burning, open burning hope the situation will improve after the chaos bass.

Personality - hd25 sennheiser has always maintained a strong bottom sound, with a touch of roughness, a strong character. t50p have a very cautious not only sound the end of the three frequency average, of excellent, but Lueqian personality, has a bit late with the dt880 sound like, but with more of the same bass


Summary:

Both to t50p price, little brother think it is absolutely worth it, buy the appearance of the net system, making power has been with the analytical value. I have a hd25 both, after listening to all a good buy t50p back on the street. Because the light really fine line with noise, occasionally Do not forget to bring your amp, not even bad Direct Push, A third line on the Department of hd25 dynamic d, t50p on the gentle, alternating with each other to listen with a sense of the Chengri have different me, recite from the are excited ~ ~ ~ .

I don't read traditional but from what I can understand the T50p is light yet very strongly built. The soundstaging is very large. Comparable to almost a HD650. Bass is good but somewhat "muddy/boomy." Not as detailed as the HD25. Might need an amp to control it
 
Kinda sounds like the DT880 (whatever that means cause I've never heard the DT880 =D) but with more of the same bass (so more pronounced and louder)
 
 
Thats what I can make of it. Might be some errors here and there but like I said I don't read traditional. Anyways it seems like the reports on the T50p bass are correct and there might be too much of it for some. Also large soundstage? Really? From a portable? I know the HD25 have no soundstage so they must be talking about the T50p. This might be interesting.

So far that seems to corroborate what I've read about the T50p : a very good soundstage / imaging capacity / analytical quality. Let's hope the bass issue comes from a lack of burn-in or is an isolated case.
