"mom I said the bad word!"

plz help

>closed
>big soundstage
Good luck with that. Beyerdynamic Custom Studio are a good choice for you.

ooo ooo I know: Beyer Custom Studios.
You can adjust bass to highest, soundstage is good, theyre heavy and built great.
Probably need an amp though at 80 ohms not sure.
Or dt770 but they got non removable cable.

Whats a good amp for a pair of LCD-2C?
Driving them with some random Onkyo A9010
Budget is $500

I think this new thx linear thing is going to be a monster. I have an lcd2 and I'm waiting on that to upgrade.

This.

>came back to /hpg/ after not visiting for a few months
>degenerate footfags and HD600 shills have taken over

At least the HD600 is a good headphone.

HD600 are good open monitors.

I have K702's. They're falling apart and the all-plastic design isn't really that impressive.

Did I fuck up? I preferred my Beyers.

AKG and Beyer headphones are grating and sibilant across the board, you deserve better.

How long have you had them?
Maybe get these HD600.

Get fidelio x2

Pleather earpads. Unacceptable.

>a good headphone
You mean the best headphones in the world, with superior driver matching confirmed by Sennheiser customer representative email.

How'd I do?
amazon.com/Monoprice-108323-Headphone-Gold-Plated-Accessories/dp/B007SP2CO2

The protein leather is incredibly durable and is indistinguishable from real leather to me. Have had them for years and the pads are still good as new.

Aha, that'd be the Sennheiser HD 650s (Driver matched to the highest of standards)! The only driver matched, best TOTL headphone by humanity. As every knowledgeable audio enthusiast should know, nowhere does it officially state by Sennheiser that they're driver matched (Hence, gross!)

Do you also have doctors certificate that your ears are driver matched?

>Pleather earpads. Unacceptable.
Um he was replying to me not you, I have no issue with pleather.

They just are, trust me! Email my doctor for proof. You'd just call it "photoshopped" if I were ever to post it here :^)

Do I ever need to upgrade my DAC? Using some chink shit(SMSL M3)

I got a pair of Bosshifi B8, Takstar Pro 82 and Superlux HD681 in the latest AliExpress sale. Is there something chink that I should also try next sale?

tanks u :)

Idol trash approves of pic.
And no, you're probably alright unless it's defective or something. DACs aren't that hard.
If you don't have an amp, that makes a difference, DACs not so much.
But headphones make the most difference. If you don't have HD600, I'd suggest getting that.

I meant the NAD HP Viso 50 was recommended to me not him so why is he complaining that they have pleather

That is a lie. Don't spread misinformation.

>HD600 haters can't even competently use an image editor

Attached: distilled.jpg (953x720, 442K)

Random tip: to make perfect transparencies, blow the image up fuckhuge with waifu2x, which produces sharp upscaled lineart, then extract your transparency from the background, then downscale back to original size. This will produce a much more precisely extracted transparency than simply working with the original image.
If your background is plain enough, you can actually produce rather perfect transparencies simply using the magic wand tool like this.

Nah, HD600 shill gets buttblasted every time so I think I'll keep using it.

I've never seen another headphone reviewed so well, literally 5 stars. And its been for sale since the early 2000s.

First graph doesn't look that bad, Harman-target FR. Second one must be a defective unit or a very interesting treble-correcting DSP concept.

My feet on your face. Dummy

I'm poor and want decent closed-back headphones.
Is M40X okay? Please help.

If you want to listen to emo trash it's a free country. Just don't push that shit on me or try to say I have bad tastes. At least I can own up to my audio guilty pleasures.

Nobody's pushing shit on you, you're the one pushing your garbage standards on everyone else.

Jesus kid... It's fucking emo trash. It's not like some well worded critique is needed here. Hot gen z meme btw.

And btw stop redefining words please. LARP does not mean what you think its means.

No.
Takstar Pro 82

Attached: Pro 82, M40x.png (1480x462, 99K)

No I read it. I assumed you were trying to imply it wasn't emo trash and was some sub genre like "math rock" or something stupid. Hence the quotes you used.

takstar pro 82 is better

No, the quotes are there because I have no idea what you mean by that arbitrary term and it has no consequence on my argument. Try to keep up.

the takstar pros are nice but don't look "fashionable" because of the chink branding on the cups
but they're generally recommended because none of /hpg/ goes outside anyway

u mad?

Then I guess it's you who should reread. Look at the post chain. I was commenting on some song called "Swallowed A Bug".

You're still not understanding what i'm saying. I'll help you out a bit here, restate my argument and I'll correct you where you're wrong. I want you to succeed!

post your music

Man your argument is a bunch of green text, a misused term, and a gen z meme. What the fuck do you want from me? I did my best to try and translate that shit.

Hey, I'm just trying to help you improve your reading comprehension since it's obvious the education system has failed you. I'd appreciate if you kept the derogatory remarks to yourself, young man.

after some googling i found this head-fi.org/threads/dap-not-showing-album-art-how-to-batch-convert-all-album-artwork-to-baseline-compression-jpegs.867650/
hopefully it works.

>reading comprehension
Doesn't work with gen z unfortunately.

Yeah, it's hard to communicate with someone who is special like him but I think we can help him out. With enough encouragement and positive reinforcement, I'm sure he can better his odious personality and low self esteem.

I was talking to you there.

I can see you're lashing out. No need for that.

Should I get Sennheiser 4.50 or beats solo 3..".?

What if I'm willing to swap out the pads on the M40X? My main concern is audio quality at a relatively low price point. An extra $50AU either way is no issue, and I've got a lot of paranoia surrounding Aliexpress which is the only place I can get the Takstars.

any swap in pads only makes the sound worse desu
I've read a review that compared different pads and apparently stock pads have the best audio quality but pretty bad comfort
aliexpress is ok. they're like chinese amazon. better than taobao at least. If you don't want them to have your credit card data, which is understandable, there are some available on amazon. Not sure about their authenticity though

I need bluetooth in-ears for the gym.

So durable some other user a handful of /hpg/ threads ago was asking where to buy stock earpads replacement for his NAD. He couldn't find any because NAD doesn't have a decent part distribution unlike real headphone companies like Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, Audio Technica, AKG.

The more we get to know you, the more we get to laugh at you.
