I guess Benchmark HPA4 is the end-game head-amp measurement/performance wise?

>DT900s only good and comfortable (fuck off HD650s) pair I've had
>Band go snap
Before I order another one, any other closed/semi-open, driven, reasonably neutral (or shallow V) non-vice grip pairs around 200-300ish to look into?

>>105604410
lol, lmao
my HD 650 headband is still perfect ;)

>>105604477
Besides it's okay enough with some tape right now, I did try them before and returned them pretty quickly. Besides the vice grip thing, learned I don't want open back with them

Any good headphones yet?

>>105604410
check out akgs, i forget what the good one was like the k702 or something
its supposed to be like 300 dollars

HD 490 Pro
also Beyer sells replacement parts

I want this graph but on a pair of open back headphones, if such a thing exists. Budget is maybe $1k. Please spoonfeed me because I'm a retarded lazy retard.

looking for headphones that have the bulky look as pic related, but without the mic.

>>105607202
Open backs with such a bass shelf basically don't exist. And 6+ kHz looks quite low in level which is also not something you'll find in an open back, though impossible to tell exactly without knowing the measurement rig.
Bottom line: Get whatever and use EQ. I'd suggest HD 490 Pro (comfy, low distortion, solid build quality).

>>105607452
I think Koss has some headphones that look like that? Or for actually good sound, IEMs + hearing protection.

Thoughts on the Beoplay H95?

I liked the Beoplay H8, but I noticed their new headphones are made in China and I had to return the Beoplay HX because it was terrible so I'm hesitant.

>>105607532
gonna assume you meant these and they're perfect. thanks friend

>>105608833
Yeah, just bear in mind that they don't sound good.

Oh shit guys I think the problem with my headphones not working is the computer itself not the headphones.
What is this problem called so I can try and fix it or get someone else to fix it?

>>105610155
Buy a USB amp/dac

Fiio k3 or k5

>>105610232
I think I'll look into getting the jacks fixed rather than go that mile.
I need to refund my new headphones anyways as I got my old ones to work the same way they used to by doing the press down thing.

But if all else fails I'll try the usb amp/dac. That's a good suggestion.
Thank you.

>>105610606
Getting the jacks fixed is by far the worst solution, any "fix" will degrade soon, those jacks simply aren't designed to be repairable.

Ooo, I have a similar issue to this other poster.
The left jack on my sundaras needs to be mushed in and fiddled with to get them to work, I got a new cable, same issue, so I began thinking it was the plug.

>>105610629
Would this also be a case where soldering a new plug in the cup is not likely to help?

>>105610931
Those are GENERALLY better, but it depends on the headphone in question.

>>105604763
k702s break in sub 2 years, are made in china, sound like garbage and have absolutely no padding on the headband unless you mod them. The only thing they do well is having a wide soundstage for their price point, they do absolutely everything else horribly and are so piercing that they make beyers cheap line seem reasonable

>>105604410
>>105604524
not a lot of good closed backs in that range. If your buying used you can probably get a pair of closed back aeons, which would be better than basically anything else you would find near that price point

>>105611005
My K712 pros made in Austria failed in 18-24 months as well.

it's not a china thing.

>>105611055
It's a horrible headphone, being made in china now is just icing on the cake

>>105611144
At least I didn't pay absurd $400-600 pricing on them.

>>105610938
Hifiman sundara, I have a whole soldering setup in my amazon cart, I sure hope I don't swipe this $130 bill to not even fix my headphones :c

>>105611279
There is a reason they're called chinkfiman here.

>>105611286
Well, I agree, my experience with the quality has been terrible.
The pads basically disintegrated in a year(replaced.)
And now the connector issue...
Still, they sound pretty good when working, IDK if there is something similar but better on the market nowadays?

The other issue is I have a bad amp.
I have a topping dx3+pro, and it seems like it is barely too weak to run just about everything that would be a meaningful upgrade from sundaras.

PSA: jcally jm20 max exists and has 200mW of power, enough even for planars.
https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/unofficial-review-of-jcally-jm20-max-usb-c-headphone-dongle-with-high-unbalanced-output-power.62024/

>>105611345
Dan Clark Audio is generally the pick for ACTUALLY good build quality planar headphones.

But you are paying for US manufacturing so they start around $500.


DX3+ Pro should be fine for all but the most power hungry headphones (which are generally $1k+ anyway).

>>105611345
>topping dx3+pro, and it seems like it is barely too weak to run just about everything that would be a meaningful upgrade from sundaras.

From everything I've seen the Aeon's are solid.

>fix your motherboard/case
if it's front panel audio you've got a few options depending on your case
you can either get a 5.25 bay sound card, or buy a new case, or use the front panel usb port and get a usb dac for 8 dollars, which will work just as well
if you are using rear audio, it's on your motherboard, and you can get either a pcie sound card or again with the usb
if you plan on actually repairing your computer you're looking at a new case and/or motherboard depending on what kind of computer you have. an oem computer may have an incompatible power supply, case, motherboard, cpu cooler, etc.

>>105610629
So is the usb amp/dac the best choice of solution? Feels more like a workaround.

>>105613318
Or a new case.

>>105613318
we learned in A+ certification class that if a computer has a broken component u try to replace it with a usb/pcie device rather than replacing the entire thing
external dacs are considered upgrades so even if your onboard sound worked people would still recommend getting an external dac/amp

they're too good, I will never buy another pair of headphones

is hd 560s the best ones you can get in 100-200€ range?

>>105614108
It's up there

>>105604410
Sony.

MDR-V6, MDR-7506, MDR-CD900ST, or MDR-M1.

>>105612352
They're pretty good. Better than anything from Sennheiser, Chinkfiman or Audeze I've tried, at least.
t. yuropoor
>>105614108
Probably one of the best in that price range desu. The proprietary locking 3.5 mm sucks ass though. Limits cable options.

Is the Schiit Lyr+ really the lowest price headphone amp with relay attenuator volume control? I hate channel imbalance at low volume levels and do a lot of low volume listening.

>>105617123
If you don't like any Chink-fi then yes, Lyr+ is the cheapest relay attenuator volume control head-amp you can get.
I would like to know if there is MUSES72320/323 chip based headphone amp though, but using such chip should be better than Alps RK27 by a certain margin while still keeps cost low. Dunno why Schiit hasn't integrated such a chip into its lowly-priced design.

>>105617123
Why not a combo dac+amp with digital volume control? Even apple dongle might be enough.

>Headphones stopped working
>Went and bought a set of sony WHCH720N headphones because I didn't want to use my old wired headphones for a week while I ordered something in
>They are egregiously shit

Why is this allowed? The audio skips whenever I move too much. Why the fuck would the audio skip when I move when they're connected by bluetooth?? They're legitimately worse than most of the chinkshit I've used in the past.

>>105621244
>when they're connected by bluetooth??
Because Bluetooth is and always has been shit.

Any recommendations to replace my HD6XX's earpads?

>>105621244
you bought cheap generic retail shit

Considering upgrading from my old HD560S to an HD600. Apparently it's far from ideal for gaming and movies? Then again I don't really play FPS much. Any recommendations around the HD600 price point?
I'd get the 6XX but I'm in leafland and it'll take a while to get here

>>105621244

Dekoni Audio.
>>105621868
HD600 is indeed shit for vidya and movies, uses very old drivers. Get Aune AR5000. These have better imaging than HD600 and lower THD than everything Sennheiser up to the HD800.

>>105622078
After checking it seems the nearest store that has the AR5000 in stock is about an hour away and I'm looking for something I can pickup by the end of the day. Would you say it's worth it over something like the DT900 Pro X?

>>105622144
Definitely. Beyers sounds really sharp with that treble spike and are designed to fail after a few years. AR5000 is one of the best DD headphones regardless of price since it has really low distortion. Build quality is pretty good. Good sensitivity so it'll run off of anything, probably even a phone.

>>105622207
Alright thanks

>>105622078
> Get Aune AR5000. These have better imaging than HD600
All Aunes are kinda dark and recessed in vocals, AR5000 is probably the best one of the batch. AR9000 sounds so ass you would not believe it costs 1000+
I couldn't see how they are better than 600s series in any way, a few dBs of extra bass are good but the rest of tonality is simply worse.
> lower THD
A meme metric and a retard detector, even vintage Sennheisers have THD below audibility treshhold at normal (75-80dB) listening volumes, even if you push some bass with EQ.
If you still claim that it matters you are not just a retard but also a deaf one pushing listening volume waay beyond safe levels

>>105622078
>Get Aune AR5000.
chinese garbage,
>dated drivers
retarded take and you know it chang, 30 year old sr 007s are still fucking mogging everything you niggers shill, hd 800's are 20 and same holds. I will take literal year 2003 hd650s over anything made by bug people

>>105621868
6xx/600/dt900 are all fine and will do the job. If you want the best bang for your buck buy some used mirage/paradigm/energy speakers since your also canadian. At any given time there are a bunch of 60 year olds selling their 2000's era made in canada speakers before the acquisition by klipsch that are better than almost any headphone below hd 800's for sub $200.
hd 600 just have no soundstage but that won't matter for what your using them for.

if you want some other recommendations for the $200-350 price tag you can check out r70x's. There are some on warehouse deals for $220 cad, and after you lie and scam the indians on customer support you should get another 20% off, they are basically just hd 600s but made in jp and have some more sound stage.

>>105622385
>I couldn't see how they are better than 600s series in any way
HD600 have dogshit imaging. Soundstage is a subjective thing so I won't mention that but imaging on those is awful. Not to mention the recessed bass you can't even EQ much because distortion.
>> lower THD
>A meme metric and a retard detector
Movies have way higher peaks than music does. Add EQ to that and you'd easily pass the threshold at which HD600 distorts in the bass.
>>105622451
>>dated drivers
>retarded take and you know it chang
Those 30 year old sr 007s distort like a motherfucker, good luck EQ'ing bass on those. The newer STAX models are phenomenal but their older models have issues with distortion.
490 Pro mogs all of Senny's HD6X0 models because it doesn't use 20 year old outdated drivers.
Also
>dt900 are fine
>dip after 4k
>treble peak after 10k

No. HD600/6XX is fine for music that doesn't rely on bass, though. Terrible for movies and vidya and anything with even a little bass.

>>105622526
>490 Pro mogs all of Senny's HD6X0 models because it doesn't use 20 year old outdated drivers
they are literally twice the cost of the 6xx anon, that isn't the checkmate you think it is. Maybe if your are europoor and have to pay full price for the 600 line, which is a humiliation ritual itself. at $500+ cad there is no reason to buy them over aeons so that is fucking retarded


>>dt900 are fine
>>dip after 4k
>>treble peak after 10k
>>good
again it's low end tier, nothing here is well rounded in any sense of the word

>>105622603
>>105622615
Holy deaf.

>>105622639
>at $500+ cad there is no reason to buy them over aeons so that is fucking retarded
Oh, I agree with this. Aeons are the best headphones <$1000 imo. I know 490 Pro are twice the cost of the 6xx but I meant HD600 use such outdated drivers that even Senny's own headphones that are priced similarly are better. I'd take a 560S over a 6XX for everything that's not music.
>again it's low end tier, nothing here is well rounded in any sense of the word
Sure, but AR5000 don't have any huge dips or noticeable distortion so you can just EQ them and then they'll mog Senny's entire lineup since they don't distort that much in the bass and have very good imaging.
>>105622662
>fixing the anemic low end is le bad
And they're more comfortable.

>>105622662
If you think that sounds DRASTICALLY worse, I've got a bridge to sell you.

>>105622689
>>105622704
It doesn't fix the low end, it boosts everything under 500 Hz. And attenuates upper mids at the same time, basically tilting mids by 4-5 dB or so. And yes this is easily audible, sound will be less clear and more muffled.

>>105622835
You're simply wrong, the VAST majority of people who have bought dekoni earcups have zero complaints about them and don't even notice a perceived change in audio.

Hi /hdg/, my cheap headset is crumbling and it's long overdue for an upgrade, so I though I'd ask.

From some preliminary research, I have identified the Sony WH-1000XM6, Bose QuietComfort Ultra, Sonos Ace, and Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless.
I have had issues with build quality for Bose by the past, and I remember people here recommending against Sennheiser, but I haven't frequented the thread in a year or so. So I'd appreciate a refresher.

>>105623074

Focal Bathys. Sony's wireless headphones are dogshit. Bose have build quality issues. Sennheiser's wireless stuff is not terrible but not really good either. Bathys are one of the very few "good" wireless headphones. There's also Audeze Maxwell but those are heavy and are notorious for drivers dying.

You can find a few dozen autists and morons bitching about it online.

All of them have issues with build quality.

>>105621462
I like the WC Freeze HD pads. They're relatively new (late 2024 release I think) and there aren't many reviews/impressions out there, but they're quite nice and not overpriced like many HD6## pads.

>>105623354
You can just add a mic to the headphones, most support that. For example:
SHP 9500 + Vmoda BoomPro ~$110
Fiio FT1(this one's closed back, though) + Meze Boom Mic ~$220
Or you could just get a desktop mic like the Blue Snowball and get something like HD560s though Sennheiser raised the price of those by a lot. They used to be 150 bucks. HE400SE is about 100 bucks and sounds decent but Hifiman's build quality is notoriously shit. I don't know how many of these are available in Russia but SHP 9500 and anything Hifiman or FiiO is on AliExpress as well.

>>105623637
Can I add a mic too HD560s? They look promising.

>>105623660
Looks like you can

>>105623678
Thank you!

>>105623660
You can. There are plenty of no name mics that you could use or you can add the Vmoda mic to them but you'll need an adapter for that. These are pretty great headphones but they use a proprietary connector with a lock in mechanism so you'd either need a mic that's explicitly stated to be compatible with this model or use an adapter so any boom mic will work. From what I see on >>105623678 this dude used an adapter(the silver part) and connected the Vmoda BoomPro to it. Get the metal adapters like this one because the plastic ones tend to snap

>>105622689
>Sure, but AR5000 don't have any huge dips or noticeable distortion so you can just EQ them and then they'll mog Senny's entire lineup since they don't distort that much in the bass and have very good imaging.

faiir point, honestly everything i've owned minus the r70x in that tier distorts so fucking insanely badly with eq that it wasn't even worth the time installing the programs. The 6xx with eq literally sounded like exploded subwoofers, I'm not even sure why the eq profiles existed. Headphones past that didn't seem to benefit with eq, if anything sounded worse or just too quiet with a lot of the setting provided such as hd 800 and aeons(open and closed).

>>105624018
>6xx with eq literally sounded like exploded subwoofers
They have rolled off bass and distort in that region as well so EQ'ing them to the Harman target will cause that. Most low tier DD headphones suffer from the same issues, sadly. The THD difference between the HD6X0 Sennheiser models and something like AR5000 is pretty big(see picrel) and it gets even bigger when you compare that with decent planars.
>if anything sounded worse or just too quiet
HD800 need a large boost in the bass to match the Harman target so adding a big enough negative preamp gain can cause that, yeah. And Aeons have really good tuning so the added bass from EQ'ing them to Harman might make them sound worse. It's a shame there's no perfect solution in the 200 dollar range for headphones. You either get something that distorts like a motherfucker or something with a lackluster tuning. Or you get a chinkfiman that doesn't suffer from either but will die after a year or two. FiiO had a chance to make a decent cheap planar with the FT1 Pro but fucked it up. As things stand you either get a DD headphone(with all the issues) or spend >=$500 and get an Aeon.

new 2.5mm balanced cable for my HD 600 for the qudelix 5k.these sound quite alright with a nice bass shelf.

>>105624850
Looks pretty nice. Kind of reminds me of those OpenHeart ones.

>>105623237
Thanks. Bathys was among the ones I noticed, but the price had me double take. Guess I'll look more closely into these.

>>105621868
>>105622207
Got back from the store with the AR5000 and as a casual non-audiophile I liked the sound after comparing it with the HD600 there. The real deciding factor was actually the comfort; over the years I've kinda grown to dislike the cups, pads, and headband cushioning on the HD560S and the HD600 doesn't seem much different. Also it comes with a stand and has no need for an amp which is nice.

Unrelated but I tried a closed back for the first time (FIIO FT1) and there was this pressure in my ears that felt awful. Never had this issue with IEMs.

>>105626269
Glad you like them, anon. You can also EQ them if you think they're lacking in a particular area since they respond very well to EQ. Some people mod the HD600 headband to be more comfortable but suspension style headbands like the one on the AR5000 always end up being the most comfortable. And that pressure is more annoying with FT1 than a lot of closed backs because of the clamp force. But changing pads sometimes eliminates that. Funnily enough some Audeze cans give you the same or an even worse pressure sensation despite being open back.

>>105619469
I'm totally open to chifi, but I haven't found anything comparable

Cheers bros, I'd like a recommendation(s)
>Location
Norway/Yurop
>Budget
Say up to 2000 EUR, with some leeway if it's undisputably worth it.
>Open/Closed
Prefer open, but no strong preference. Will be using them at home, by my desk, so noise leaking in or out isn't a concern.
>Sound signature (favourite music)
A bit of everything, but not at once. Trance, atmospheric electro, classic hip hop and folk music are mainstays. In periods, rock, country, classical, DnB, other bass-heavy music.
>Previous equipment
Currently use AKG K701 with an SPL Auditor amplifier and Cambridge Audio DacMagic Plus. Works alright, but miss some oomph in the low end. I know they get a lot of shit for being uncomfortable, but once you get past the break-in period and the bands slacken a bit, they're one of the more comfortable headphones I've used, and it's nice and easy to clean the earpads.
Have previously used Denon AH-D5000, which felt pretty good. Sound signature was fine, almost to the point of being boring, and got sweaty in the summer.
AKG K181 DJ, which have some bass, but weren't comfortable for use over time.
Grado SR-60, which I really liked, but weren't comfortable for use over time.

I was considering the Audeze LCD-2, which it seems I can use balanced from my amp, and a pair of Grado headphones for more fun sound.
I haven't tried the LCD-2, but from the reviews it looks a lot like what I'm looking for - A little warmer sound, a little more bass, and comfortable, if heavy.

Thanks!

>>105627103
>Because I like turning a knob
Digital volume control and a knob aren't mutually exclusive. JDS Element IV was made for knob autists. If you're less autistic, the new Topping DX5 II seems to provide a great set of features for the price. And there are many other options, Topping DX3 Pro, Fiio K11, RME ADI-2 DAC...

>>105629258
DCA Noire XO. If you must get something from Audeze then better to get LCD-X rather than 2 since X is still one of their best models IF you EQ it. Though Noire XO is much better tuned and much more comfortable since it doesn't weight 600 grams.
>>105628348
The contrast from silver or white would look pretty nice desu.

>>105621868
>>105622078
>HD600 is indeed shit for vidya and movies
shit is exaggerating but they certainly do have mediocre imaging for sure. Something people forget is that imaging is handled by game engines and will sound acceptable on any headphone, so its never gonna be bad just because the headphones have mediocre imaging. If the game has audio figured out then it'll deliver it to your headphones well.

bad imaging is more noticeable in stereo music, basically any kind of panning sound or enveloping sound will not really be immersive.

>>105631554
The movie thing I get even less. I actually quite like them for movies because voices sound great on them. Sure, even with EQ they'll never do deep rumbles like a planar, but I find that far more dispensable in comparison and it's worth noting that with EQ you still get much better bass than with your average consumer subwoofer. Imaging is less critical than in games and, again, is mostly defined by the mix and binaural rendering (or its absence).

>>105632680
you can eq the bass on the 600's all you want and it will sound horrific, if anything it will sound noticeably worse with how distorted they are in that area anyways.
>consumer sub
you can buy used speakers and subs for almost nothing in 2025, that would mog the 600s into oblivion if that's what your going to compare them too. They are fine headphones but next to speakers they are an absolute joke of a headphone, especially for the price.

>>105630398
Thank you. I haven't heard about DCA before, they look interesting. Would probably be a blind buy unless I found someone who has a pair and would let me try them.
I'll book a demo of the LCD-X and see if I can get closer to making up my mind.

So what the hell do I do for it not to get worse? Will taping it even save it?

>>105633662

>Band go snap
how? send a pic?
and btw... a replacement headband assembly is only 60$, the best thing about beyerdynamics is that you can easily repair them, don't be a retarded consoomer
on the dt 900 it's entirely solderless and takes 5 mins to do, really no excuse.
fun fact you could even buy the dt 700 pro assembly + pads to convert them to closed back if you wanted to (drivers are the same)

i'm killing myself

oh so it looks like the dt 770 pro x limited edition got replaced by... dt 770 pro x non-limited edition
and dt 990 pro x is now also a thing
cool I guess

Looking for some wired travel friendly headphones (and eventually a good travel case?) that'll run off a laptop and survive cramped storage

Currently using a DT 770 Pro 250 ohm through a Fiio K5 Pro ESS, with a preamp of -3.2dB and no other equalizer settings, very satisfied with the sound and fit
Also use a pair of WF-1000XM3 for bluetooth stuff, equalized to a slight v curve, pretty satisfied with the sound, especially considering it's a 2019 model
Otherwise I've just used shit tier gaming headsets, the "best" of them being a Logitech G935

Thanks /hpg/!
