Too bad you didn't like them...I have a set of pros and love em driven with my cheap little dot tube amp. One thing that would be nice is you look at the head-fi sponsers for your next purchase. Ask for a head-fi discount....you never know. Good luck to you and it sounds like Senns are your kind of can.

I had DT990 Pros (the old version) and the sibilance was killing me out of my PCDP. I didn't have an amp, but feared what REDO states above, because along with the sibilance the bass was too much as well...

I don't mean to dig up an old thread, but I'd like to let everyone who helped me know that I am absolutely loving the Senn HD 650s. They sound incredible through my receiver, with all of the clarity and bass response (without sibilance!) that I could want. I also picked up a pair of iGrados for my Cowon D2, and those, too, are amazing me.

I feel that I've finally found my cans, and I couldn't be happier. A huge thanks to all of the posters in this and my previous threads in helping me to find my sonic contentment.

And now, I listen!

Has anyone tried the newer 2006 models? They're supposed to be warmer and sound as good as the 880's.
