Hello DT-150 owners,
I have HD555s (took the foams out so maybe it's closer to HD595s now) and I just don't find anything great about them, they sound...well...slow and dull.
I can hear that they're decent headphones but it's like they try to do nothing wrong and fail at really doing anything right...
I can put them on and listen to music while browsing the net on my computer and literally forget that I'm listening to music, they just don't draw me or get my foot tapping.
I got cheap ksc-75 that I krammer-modded (but without cutting the hole in the pad in fear of them becoming too bright and I was wise not to) to get a taste of a different sound sig and I like them, they have some punch, more sparkle but they can get tiring after a while so I wouldn't want something too harsh sounding.
I stumbled upon this thread and was wondering if the dt-150 could fill my needs.
How's the speed, PRaT? (wouldn't want another slow headphone)
Some of the things I listen to:
Keane, Bloc party, Tv on the radio, kings of leon, noisettes, the notwist, Belle & Sebastian, The Killers, The Servant, The Prodigy, Pendulum, Daft Punk (just got into electronica/drum&bass and must say I like it!) and some other things(acoustic music) but it's mainly indie and electronica/drum&bass.
They'd be used with a zero dac/amp (opa627/lt1364)
Thanks everyone!
(Bonus question: are they comfortable?)
