How can I confirm that this page is 100% real and not written by the company. So please tell me exactly how the isk HP 2011 sound like from bass,sub bass,mids,upper mids and highs. So also tell me how does it compare to the isk hf 2010 in the lows,mids and highs. What are the best pads for the isk HP 2011 for a little bass not that am some sort of basshead but I like a little bit of punch and detail like my sennheiser hd25-ii give me

Come, just open your mouth and people will spoon-fed you. :beyersmile: I can't imagine you're asking a question like this. Do you even pay any single cents for all the review that written by the respected forumers here? If not just take it with a pinch of salt, no harm reading but asking question like above just get me triggered.

Will Takstar HD 5500 perform good for a direct use to 200$ laptop made in 2013 (Acer aspire e1-431 celeron 1000M)?
I will use it mostly for listen music + a bit casual games like aura kingdom, osu, or racing game.
mostly i listen to One Ok Rock music and some other japanese music + vocaloid.
I never buy headphone before, and i dont know about the headphone quality, i want the hd 5500 because the design + user review say it good for that price.
will takstar hd 5500 suitable for me?
and how about the durability, is it good?

I plan to pick up either the HP2011 or the HF2010 for Christmas from eBay, they will primarily be used for gaming/music and worn for long periods of time. Which ones would be better/more comfortable?

I currently have the Sennheiser PC360 headset but feel like I can get a better sound using the iSK 2010 for example.

I wanted to take a ISK-HF2010 as an upgrade to my superlux. But then i saw ISK MDH-8500 on Aliexpress, with a nicer design a datachable cable for the same price. ididn't wanted to risky myself. Anyone here has them ? They are the same thing as takstar pro80s ? How these compare do the semi open isk ?

While great value for their prices, I think expecting Isk HP2011 and HF2010 to outperform Sennheiser PC360 is not very fair to HP2011 and HF2010. You might be disappointed.

Hmm.. What makes you say that?

I've seen reviews where people say the HF2010 are very close to the DT880 in performance, and the DT880 punch way above Sennheiser 558 (same drivers as PC360).

Very close is very subjective :). HF2010 (Takstar Hi2050) has a sound signature that is similar to that of DT-880 and look like it. But that does not make them as good as DT-880. Just like Philips SHP9500 is considered similar to Sennheiser HD600. But that doesn't make them as good as HD600.

However, I'm in no way discouraging you from buying HF2010 or HP2011 :). I'm just asking you to keep your expectations from these headphones in check. These are very good for their price and if you like their sound signature then you may end up liking these more than your other headphones. Personally, amongst these two, I prefer Takstar Hi2050 (HF2010) over HP2011.

I seriously doubt that.

I have the BDT 880/600 and the relative of HF2010 which is the closed HP2011.
In my opinion there is at least one class difference in everything between them, not even worth comparing. In the matter of fact, after being so pleased in the beginning with HP2011, buying BDT 880 made wanting to change the ISK - they simply wouldn't cut it any more. So my workplace setup got an upgrade in the form of AKG K550 (yet to be delivered) and HP2011 is probably going to local classifieds or back of the drawer.
If these $40 headphones would be a match for the $200 BDT 880 people would have heard more about it.

So I was a fool, and you're totally right. They are no where a transparent or have a bigger sound stage than my old PC360 G4ME.

The HF2010 are also not very comfortable on my head. So defo going to be returning them.

True, honestly I really hope I get to try the DT880 at some point but for now I've been put off going for anything thats not Sennheiser.

alright, so right now i have the isk hf-2010 and the bosshifi b8 in my hands, but i cant do a comparison right now since im still burning-in the isk (just arrived today)..ill make an update later


edit: my first impressions on isk is that is significantly warmer,dark,muffled a bit and hollow at first listen, b8 were bright sounding ootb, soundstage is wider on the isk tho

isk burning in for 17hrs.

definitely the bosshifi sounded better but...only if u judge it based on technical terms. b8 have better instrument separation, no sibilance (apparently i can still hear some sibilance over the hf-2010) , clearer detail and even tonal sound signature overall with a little spark on the treble


the hf-2010 sounded like theres a small reverb in its sound signature (echoey) , mids are a bit recessed, vocals on the isk were a little bit behind among other frequencies and have sibilance at some poor recorded songs (i never encountered sibilance on b8 even at bad recordings) but to compensate for it, they sounded bigger, wider than the b8. small details are a bit amplified but you can still notice that its far away from you. its has a warmer/darker sound signature.

(one thing i notice if u cover the semi-open backs of the isk with ur hands. it sounded much closer to b8 maybe ill mod this cans up after new year)


after comparing these two i would say, for monitoring and analytical purposes get the bosshifi b8. for musicality i recommend both. i wouldn't say yet that the isk is a huge downgrade in terms of sound quality, maybe it would take more time for this isk to break-in like my grados which took 2weeks to sounded like a grado would. but if u could buy the isk hf-2010 at half the price of the b8. get em


maybe after a month of use of isk i can give a more complete review about it. but right now its all that i can say
