Pictures of Your Portable Rig [Part XIV]

That's a nice looking CK10 there grokit Although it's very difficult to get a good picture of the CK10 since the color isn't black You should try some triple flanges on them if you have any and if you can handle them. They were my tip of choice when I had them.

Thanks for that. Y'know, I usually go with Sony Hybrid tips automatically, as they always agree with me. But even though I have a pair of hybrids just sitting here I am still using the medium stock tips that came with the CK-10s, they fit perfectly. This is the first time I have been satisfied with a pair of stock tips actually.

Looks like a great rig but careful with that HD650 headband when using it portably, as the paint will chip easily!

Thanks man. It hasn't actually left the house yet. But I do keep hearing about the frail headband on these. Can this happen from normal use? Or does it take a good whack to chip the paint off? Can I purchase a replacment headband from Sennheiser in the future if needed? Thanks.

I think that it must chip relatively easily as half the used ones I've seen listed have paint chipped off and it is very unattractive IMO. You can get a cheap case and there are HD600/650 headband covers on eBay as well that say they prevent this. I don't think Sennheiser has the headband listed for sale presently.

That's actually my thread lol. But yeah, I've got a case on the way. And you're right, almost every 650 and 600 on headfi for sale has a chipped headband. I got really lucky with mine. I still can't believe what I paid for them!

Comply foam T-400 
 
The comply website recommended the T-500 for the m6 but they were a little too big for mine and would slip right off.

^Good to know for us M6 owners, thanks!

Uh oh! I sense a scathing review of the final audio phones.

Nah, they're fine sounding - somewhere along the lines of e-Q7, CK10, PFE. Way more "universally" usable than the huge clunkers they released before. The price-value ratio is a different story, though...
