Headphoneus Supremus
Guys, I love my HD650 to bits, am sad I only discovered it late and before I spend tons of money on many amps and planars etc. I was afraid of the veil. Only to discover it's a myth (with the newer versions of the HD650) - on the last meetup we tried a > 10 years old HD650 against my 2014 version and boy - what a difference. Like two different headphones. That's where I think the whole veil story etc comes from.
I also don't agree that all headphones have to sound great from a phone, otherwise they are flawed. Needing proper amplification is not a flaw, it's a choice the designers made deliberately.
However, while its hard to believe FOR ME that someone could listen to the HD650 on my BH Crack and not like it, it's entirely possible. Different strokes for different people.
Cheers and peace!!
