Hi guys,

I'm searching closed back headphones that I could use for everything. Youtube, skype, movies, music...

I would like neutral/warm sound. Basicly non fatiguing.

I can spend cca 250€.
I have Asgard 3 amp.

Looking forward for you recomendations.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, a used Denon D5200.

 

[limaaa]

I was thinking about that one but it is 400€ right now. Little more than I have.

Are you happy with it?
Cons, pros?

 

[msing539]

Is that 400 euros used? I've seen them in Germany at 250 but I'm not sure how their eBay works.

Yes, extremely happy with it but it's not my daily driver. Pros? Great tuning, relaxed but not boring at all, enough detail at this price.

Cons... pads can get hot. Despite being pretty comfortable, a hotspot can develop after prolonged wearing. Not the widest soundstage.

400€ are the new ones. I saw them on amazon.de

 

[msing539]

Still a great price. They certainly live up to that price point.

Another option is the Fostex TH610 or TR-X00 Ebony. I don't really recommend either of these over the D5200, but if there's a substantial price difference, then they'd be worth looking at. 610 is neutral (somewhat boring), Ebony has some warmth.

Sivga SV021, great mellow sound for your uses with a healthy amount of sub bass too, most comfortable pads ever.

Not neutral though, right?

What about Beyer 770 pro x ?

Not neutral though, right?

More warm than neutral, small scoop in mids and fair amount of bass elevation.

IMO they're as good as any of the Fostex headphones like X00's for a fraction of the price.

I will consider SV021 thats for sure!

Deff do!

It's one of the few lower priced cans that I haven't been able to sell off.

It is colored for sure, but in a very pleasing way - nice warm sig with great sub bass, rich mids, and the comfort of those pads is amazing.

I hope they are not fatiguing?

Opposite of fatiguing to my ears, warm and relaxed, but enough sparkle too that's something special about them.

That sounds exactly what I want!
