My ears are probably too good. I have bought the hd650 and I thought by reading here that the hd650 is veiled and has less highs in it. But the shrill tones of the hd650 are too much for me. I tried the hd600 in 1998 but it was very harsh for my too good ears and brought it back, so I thought I should try again with the veiled hd650. My original headphone is the 20 year old hd420 but I can't get it almost nowhere anymore, so I probable keep the hd650 so that I at least have a good headphone.
I did some simple equalizer settings, but I would rather have a solution with acoustic material like special earpads or something. I tried various materials. The best thus far is 4 layers of cotton from an old T-shirt. I have put that in the
earpads on top of the black foam, the sound is much better now, less harsh and fatigue.
Do you have any very good solutions for softening the shrill tones of the hd650, maybe something like a special cable,
a very little equalizer particular for headphones, but most of all special materials. In the hd650 there is a white sort of foam, should that do the trick? Where can you get that special foam?
