Spoiler: White-orange fakes

 

[brianforever]

@artkud I concur..and the fake ear tips are a tad brighter orange than the real ones, on measuring its length, it is only 70 cm, whereas the genuine ones are about 75cm

Do anyone know where to get original ones?

Does anyone have graphs of both the 1336 and 1334 versions? Preferably compared on the same graph?

 

[artkud]

This graph is probably too smooth.
But even this graph makes it clear that the difference between two versions is very small.

Thanks! Tho honestly I thought the difference would be much bigger. I only have 1334, and I know that the bass is lower than 1336. But people say 1336 is Very bassy (the way I like it), but my 1334 is Not bassy (at all). It has bass, and it sounds very good, but not nearly enough bass for me. I thought there would be a bigger difference in the lower end

Agreed. The difference between 1334 and 1336 is basically indistinguishable by my ears. when people mentioned that it was bassier, I chalked that unto unit to unit variation. Because I’ve had some minor unit to unit variation between ALL of my Sony MHxxx

Hmmm. Maybe I've got one of these bass variant ones. My last mh755 is bassier than all the others I've had/heard.


Also just received mh750's from ebay user wei0205. They are legit.

 

[assassin10000]

Just did some A/B between my mh750 & my abnormally bassy mh755. This mh755 is definitely bassier, not hugely so, but a definite difference.

This is a somewhat fair representation of what I'm hearing. Maybe another db or so for the 50-150hz range.

 

[assassin10000]

For those that are not able to find MH755, I think the MH750 are the same but have a longer mic cable.

I A/B compared a few pairs of MH750 vs MH755 and I had MH750 that had less bass or same bass as my regular MH755. All were MMCX modded and used the same cable/dac/etc.


I also had one pair of MH755 (described in the post above) that was bassier than all the others. I think the majority of differences are just slight unit variation or perhaps subjective impressions.

.

I have the same opinion.

Without an equalizer, the MH755 sounds noticeably better than the MH750(they have 3-4 dB more low frequencies and 1 dB lower low frequencies).

But personally I don't like the standard sound of Sony MH models without EQ.

With very close equalization(reducing low frequencies, 3kHz, 8kHz; considering 3-4 and 1 dB differences between models) - the MH750 1740 sound slightly better than the MH755 1336. Slightly more detailed sound. Better separation of instruments.
Otherwise, their tonality and everything else is very similar, as if they were the same model.

Gotcha.


Just for reference my MH755 were
13w27 (normal)
13w34 (bassier)

The MH750 are
17w45 (similar)
18w34 (lighter than mh755 bass/mid-bass/lower mids but same sub-bass, slightly more L shaped low end)
19w19 (similar)
19w21 (still pending check)

What kind of equipment you guys have for this level of expertise? Or you just use ears? Just wondering...

I'm just using my ears.

Haven't purchased a 711 coupler or anything like that. Although I've considered it.

 

[ShaneyMac]

You have really good hearing, probably trained well, too. I can hear differences between fake and original 750s, but not between each unit or series. For my ears, they all sound more or less the same (and I like them all a lot). I don't have any 755 yet, and I'm planning to get one just to compare them with 750s.
