Have you "burnt it" in? How do you like the V shaped sound?
Got myself an HE-400 a month back. If anyone in Mumbai wants to try it out, you're most welcome to drop by. I play it off
a Fiio X3. Also have the HD558 and the M-50 if you wish to compare between them.
Hi could you tell me how good or bad is HE-400 When compared to Sennheiser HD555/HD558.
I have read Some impressions Saying that they are not that good(http://www.head-fi.org/t/639936/from-senn-hd-555-to-hifiman-he400-not-impressed).
Could you Please shed some more light on Comapring these two... & Let me know the DAC/AMP you are using
Cheers

Good to see more people from Mumbai !
Make sure you use Velours on the HE-400.
Need some advice folks, what's the next possible upgrade from my current HD558+E07k combo for home use, keeping in mind the budget shouldn't exceed around 10-15k.
Ideally I would also need this next device to be usable in a portable setup, with both iPod classic and hopefully a new A series Walkman, both served through Line out to this new device. The headphones used would be my Denon D340, VSD1S, and Philips Uptowns.
And for home use would I be better off upgrading the headphones themselves?
Thanks in advance for dem suggestions!
my HD 518 respond quiet noticeably to improvement in amplification. simply changing usb port of my dac amp results in sound improvement (changing to high powered one).
however biggest improvement and best value you will get would be by upgrading hps. E07k is already portable and imo can serve you till a couple of hp upgrades.
Thanks for your suggestion Vaibhav.
My main reason for the upgrade query is because I found my PA2V2 (costing much less than E07k) responding better and producing a better overall sound through the LO of the iPod Classic than the FiiO, to my ears at least. This led me to think that maybe a stand alone amp, like the E12 would be a good upgrade. This is where I need suggestions for comparisons as I don't know the good amps in this price range that are available. Once I satisfy myself with the sound out of my current 558 cans, maybe I'll look to invest in the next pair of HP's, maybe the Philips Fidelios, as those look to be awesome value for money, at least as far as I've read.
