100+ Head-Fier
Received the 550s today. Before deciding on these, I tried the QC35s vs Sony MDR-1000Xs, I preferred the Sony's. Then went on for an A/B Senns vs Sonys. The ANC was a tad better on the Sony's but I enjoyed the Senn sound better. I guess sound signature is more important to me . I have been using my JH13 Pros when commuting and for listening but now I may be selling these. Don't know when to use these anymore, I have Jays q-jays which are good enough and I will keep them. The Senns are so far great and will test these with the dacs I have, HRT Microstreamer and ifi micro iDSD. I think one obvious upgrade is getting a custom cable. I have forza audioworks cables which I like a lot. One question : are the earpads replaceable?
