That is usually a mistake. You're not really stretching the headband but rather compressing the earpads which is not desirable. The best way to reduce the clamp remains the same. Extend the cups fully and gently bend the metal band on each size. Test and repeat until you get it to fit your head. I've done this on at least a dozen pair of Senns.

Seems a mistake but it works for me and pads are not compressed after 6 years.

Seems a mistake but it works badly for me and pads are compressed, depressed and stinky after 6 years.

Global warming, you might think it’s funny making fun of everything I say. Someday it will come back to you that is for sure.

Oh.. I'm sorry if I offended you.

First tho, I don't make fun of everything you post. That would have me tie you on the tippy-top of the HF Wall of Prolific Posters. I'm just not that talkative.

I will in future avoid teasing or kidding around with you, since humour is no laughing matter.

Keep doing that and I will report you to the Mod.

I agree. Handle it yourself until the mods step in. Giving back a bit of snark is the spice of life lol

got my first vintage recently and the hd6xx sounds quite nice through it too.

One of the things that I want to mention is the comfort of this headphone. I love the soft padding and it feels so elegant like a wonderful 5th Avenue fur coat. (OK, I've never worn one but it's my guess since it feels like a luxury product)

I also highly enjoy the wonderful warm sound too and it's great for the kind of music that I listen too. I know some people may sneer a little because they have a $3000 headphone and it may be better than the HD650 but not all of us are as rich or as lucky as you are so please bear with us.

That said, the hd650 is a great headphone for the more common man who wants a taste of the something nice. It would make an incredible Christmas gift for any music lover especially living in an apartment along with a good amp. If someone gave me this as a holiday gift, I would probably break down in tears- like recieving a BMW on a smaller scale.

I used to sell audio. I have seen a few "humble" souls walking into the shop believing that the higher price tag was automatically the road to "self glory."

Some will buy a $3000 headphone so they can be untouchable. They brag about what they hear is much superior to yours....
while knowing full well you could never buy what they got to prove they are wrong.


I have HD 650's which I run from a Nuprime HPA-9 -
The HPA-9 has its volume set at 100%.

I use the Freya S as my line level control for the Nuprime.
The Freya runs balanced from my DAC, then unbalanced into the Nuprime.
The Freya running that way, according to Schiit, makes the unbalanced output more like a balanced line in active mode.

The Freya's volume control is impeccable and works synergistically with the Nuprime.

All cables ate Litz.

The HD 650 sounds excellent!
Bought it used.

You know, for the 650/6xx being such a complimented headphone, I was pretty letdown when I got to try a pair. I don't know if it's me not loving the house sound, but it just sounded boxed in. I definitely felt some of the warm mids come through, but man I just couldnt vibe with it.
