100+ Head-Fier
Hello friends,
I must say that I'm for the 1st time in problems regarding headphones.
To replace my old pair of Sennheiser HD595s I decided to purchase Beyerdynamic DT-880(600Ohms version) in hope for improved details in music and what most of users claimed at least a decent bass lines. What I've got here is by far the most disappointing thing I have ever heard. While preserving details (really good digging in recording), I dare to say that these phones don't actually contain bass at all. With (at least I think like that) decent Darkvoice 3322 headamp and (unfortunately) iMac to Yulong DAC source must say that aside from detailing in music the notes are flat, under average sounding phones, maybe the worse that I have ever heard in that league.
I hope for much much better. I was promised spacious sound, good dynamics but hey, there is nothing of it.
The phones are in good condition but in my country there is no possibilities for headphone amp purchase from China.
The best they sounded was with my Sony CD player CDP 779ES's headphone out. C.E.C. HD51 was so bass light that was a killing for my ears.
Really amazed and disappointed.
My old Senns are so much better. Even the Grados basic model SR60 sound significantly better and more dynamic.
So,
Where am I going wrong?
Is there anything I can do to improve sound, within 200 eur limit?
Please help, desperate to spent so much money on these obviously notoriously hard to drive headphones.
Thanks
Vicca
