Had both and the black definitely had more treble than the silver version. Although I kept the Black one as it sounded better for me i‘m not sure meanwhile if the treble might even be a little too much. Especially hihats in Electronic Music are often very present.

I have not questioned this, although at the moment the reason for the difference - different treble due to (individual) sample or (general) model variation - seems speculative to me.

Sample variation exists with the NDH 30 as much as it does with any other headphone that I’ve heard more than one of. I’ve heard four 30’s, four 660Ss, two 650s - none the same as another of the same type. I’ve heard differences in other identical’ headphones as well, Shure and Sony to mention a few. In fact some headphone measurement sites show variations in FR between multiple samples. However, I think it’s also the case that manufacturers (Sennheiser included for sure) do alter products over time without announcing any changes publicly. So, yeah…..!

.... heck, 'sample variation' occasionally describes my ears. After a day when the headphone audio system sounds celestial, the next day that system sounds infernal. On those days: ... "do something else ... extra workout ..."
