Sennheiser x Massdrop HD6XX Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV
Mar 18, 2017 at 3:56 PM Post #3,241 of 4,141
I was thinking to buy a dac that i will be able to use both on the go with my galaxy s7 and a closed hp and in the hotel rooms with the hd6xx and my s7 or the laptop (i travel alot). At first i was thinking chord mojo but i read lots of reviews about the fact that both hd6xx and mojo are worm so as a combo it is too warm. Could not find something that would be really good for both. I was thinking mojo for on the go and apogee groove as my laptop solution with hd6xx in the hotels.(I know that jot is probably better as a desktop solution but it does not look as a good solution to carry in a suitcase, size wise and weight wise compared to the groove) your thoughts?

I would think the Mojo should be fine. I don't have it so I can't be for sure.

Still no news on the cable.


What did you want to hear? Sennheiser still has just under two weeks before the promised ship date.

If you cannot wait for the next drop, if there is one.  Here is the best deal I have seen on the HD650 for awhile $315.00 on Amazon currently,

And a Amazon warehouse deal at $260.00...

@ Sennheiser, is everyone from the hdx00 drop getting a new cable.

If so when can we expect the shipping date will be

 
Everyone will be getting one yea, hence it is taking a while for them to procure all of them - as for the ETA I couldn't tell you, last I heard it was a work in progress but I'm guessing it shouldn't be too long now.

Lol, I couldn't wait and bought the stock HD650 cable for $35 in December.

any good 3rd party cable that will improve on 6xx , that provides solid tight bass, full mids and good highs wihtout adding any sibilance
 
also is it advised to change pads on 6xx

1. There are literally thousands, but IMO don't waste your money on something insanely overpriced, get something that suits your needs (ie length, termination, thickness).
 
2. No.
