I find it really interesting how subjective IEM's and music tuning can be. maybe it was just the ie600's or me on the day. holy shit they…

Sound is subjective in a lot of ways, but saying the 600's > 900's is a bold statement. I would like to hear more of why you found it that…

just buy a used mk 7.5. better build quality, and better entertainment. also they can be had for well under half that.

personally i went with t30's but honestly you couldn't go wrong with either. the t30's are really well built and they performed…

Couldn't agree more mate. I wish i could have listened to the ie900's for a lot longer. I would have picked up on those faults. Certainly…

@HPdeskjet its very interesting how we have very different takes. I wonder if you listened to the same products almost. I'm not a big…

huge difference in sound quality between the two. ie900 at sub 1k is a huge steal ie600 at $600 is very meh.

IE 900's are seriously good. In a recent trip to Tokyo I was lucky enough to try these out as well as many other 'very' expensive IEM's.…

the bathys are 350g's and the sony's are reportedly 250. the Ultra's appear to be a little bigger than the bose 700's and qc45's. it's not…

depends on what your looking for. Bose pack up into a smaller case, are smaller on the head and will have better sound cancelling. Bose…

hell yeah mate. I just got my focal bathys yesterday. super happy with them as well :D

I got to try these out and others at a massive audiophile superstore in tokyo japan. I really wanted to love these, after listening to the…

I reckon you'll be over the moon. I wish I bought my clears sooner. You also shouldn't need to purchase a new dac/amp. I first used the…

troll on

What are you talking about? The HD800s are renowned for their sound stage. Likely having the largest sound stage of any headphone ever…

Yeah its super strange. I've personally listened to these headphones and reckon they are a hard sell at half this price

I think its a personal preference. I can fully understand why someone would be completely turned off by a set of headphones by it.…

you couldn't get more contrasting sound stage. The sound from the HD800 is all around you, even a bit behind. For the focals the sound is…

I strongly recommend people try a set of HD800's (S or non) before pulling the trigger. They are unlike any other set of headphone I've…

Kinda different products. The Bathy's are aimed primarily on sound quality. I love the QC35's because they are small, light and ANC is…

i didn't know the planar drivers are hard to match. I have a set of hifiman arya's that died within 2 weeks of me owning them, I'm 6months…

1. there could be some debate if its 'new.' yes it is for this individual item a discount on msrp. 2. 600/650/6xx, ~$300 is in this market…

Diminishing returns hit really hard after $500+ the build quality on my hifiman arya's is truly shocking. Extremely cheap feeling plastics,…

I own a set of hd650's among others. hd600 series are a fantastic ENTRY level headphones, with outstanding build quality and a great buy…

Damn. $60 extra for a much better PSU (850w gold). maybe upgrade the cpu cooler (buy separately or pay $60 for their non specific one).…

I owned the Sennheiser Momentum 3's for a good month or so before a mic on the right earbud broke. lucky me because I was wanting to return…

as per my previous comment. I stated it was the pressure the thin headband places upon the top of your head, and the pressure point it…

I have a set of clears (same design basically as the Celestee). They aren't an overly comfortable headphone being that they are heavy and…

It's too much for a hd6** series headphone. 6xx's are considerably cheaper, are reviewed more favorably. I owned hd650's for years, and…

really recommend you buy a dedicated dac and amp. I've owned some really high end motherboards. z590 formula, Aorus master, z690 strix,…
