Hello,
I wish to express my opinion for those that won't mind.
I have been reading alot of posts on headphones and I am unhappy with the fact the alot of people are confusing cost with perfomance.
This bad cycle just makes that a product will sell for more that it should because it "sounds better".
Lets take an example : the AKG K 501 and the Senn HD 600.
So what does the experts say : "The HD 600 sound way better, because it costs more."
Look at the packaging when buying the phones : a flimsy paper box for the AKG. The Senn have a hard foam filled box.
The materials used on the Senn ....
I also don't like the fact that one particular site gives some AKG phones that cost less that the HD 600 a bad review. Maybe they will make less profit and it may look bad also if they give a lower cost headphone an excellent review.
Well that is my thoughts on the matter. Hope I did not offend or make more enemies out there.
Happy listening ...
