I'm about to pull the tigger on some DT880s mainly for video games on my PC, but which version am I supposed to get? I had no idea there were different ones, but I am getting a little amp for them

Avoid the limited edition black and chrome versions cause those are built cheaper than the normal pro/premium.

>68
more like 150-200

Nice, I was wondering about that. Should I be going for a certain ohm?

I don't know much about amps but I think 250 ohms unless you plan on spending a grand amount for a headphone amp.

Tell me about the Argons.

For gaming it sounds like a nice upgrade from most of the audio technica air headphones.
Probably comparable to the ad2000x with each having different strengths.

Good night user, got a meeting in the clouds early tomorrow. Fuck the damn clouds.

Very relevant around 22 seconds in.
Sigh, damn puritan mods.
250 or 600ohm. The lower impedance one is a variant for plebs that have no amp, and sounds worse overall. Most motherboards and smartphones these days have amps. Ultimately, if you can afford it, you should be looking at HD600, since headphones are a long-term purchase.

And only one recorded purchase. We must shill harder!

s-stax?

how does superlux get away with that

I've gotta replace my 668Bs and I've got about $100. I like the open back. Anything similar to those but... not gonna fall apart on me like they did? Are K240s outdated?

Looks good. Now, if I'm trying to pinch pennies, how do the M220 Pros compare to the K240s? I just saw they had some on massdrop for fiddy bux, and I can never turn down the option to be a jew if I can help it.

Everything but the SHP9500S takstar pro 82s, Sennheiser HD600/650/6XX/800S, STAX L300 and STAXL700

that "shitty headphone guide" is spot on, everything but these 8 are all gimmicky shitphones that are completely outclassed by those mentioned above

They blatantly copy AKG and Beyerdynamic, but make them sound different enough to be their own headphone

I dont think many people rate argons that highly though

Fucking cookie cutter

If you need to save up for stax you shouldn't be buying stax

hey he’s a good man, doing his best

Did one of you buy that used Woo Wee that popped up on eBay earlier today?

Is the 6xx overrated? I feel like the hd600 trumps it in resolution

m1060 worth $216? I'd rather wait for a deal on a better planar but I'm curious and could probably resell it for close to that

lol what? it's called budgeting.

Is the massdrop o2 amp fine?

thread dead

it's oddly quiet, these threads have been super active till now

help
any decent wireless headphones that don't have a shit battery life?
i listen to music all day but i'm tired of constantly having to buy new pairs of headphones every three months

you could buy a Bluetooth adapter and use any headphone as wireless

I've stopped posting here, I was like 1/3rd of all posts and would have conversations with myself. Next few days I'm gone, maybe will also quit the general forever.

God bless you. Have a good life. Bye

M1060 sucks.

i usually post a lot in these thread but job 's been kind of crazy lately so i'm taking a rest from shitposting, will probably come back when my STAX arrive

Too late I ordered it. I'm curious to hear it, and I've resigned myself to buying and reselling crap to figure out what I like, so it's whatever

Naa naa boo boo stick your head in poo poo - best of ALL Worlds!

what model are those?

cool, how long does it work on the go?

you are IRL anime in real life

this reminds me, anyone still got tapes? did you try listening to them on proper headphones? can't imagine the noise and artifacts

do people in USA seriously wear beats on public?
Everyone here uses IEMs, never seen a single person with full size.

Depressing whiners need to leave. If you are one of them I'll be glad you are gone.

If you still want the t60rp after having the argon then it's a pretty shit phone, sell it, and get headphones that sate your curiosity like stax

stax are so good that you just end up wanting more stax and once you have the best stax you'll feel bad that there aren't more stax to buy

I will rebuild my STAX in 3D printed stainless steel. It'll be expensive as fuck but why not.

But there are double the price of the HD330.

reminder

I wish more anime pandered to audiophiles. Are we too niche?

anime is mastered better than any tv and most movies in the west
do you know why dubs suck? not because of translation or voices - they are mastered like shit, you can't hear voices half the time, they sound dull nothing like ooriginal
also explosions and gunshots made well in most anime they go bang, rare movie dares to do so

>do you know why dubs suck?
because english voice actors don't take their jobs anywhere near as seriously as the japanese do and speak in voices that have little intonation or emotion?

yes
