Me
What are the best "cheap" headphones these days? I've been using Takstar Hi2050 for a while but they're now busted. I was honestly pretty happy with how they sounded. I've been figuring I'd go for something more expensive this time and get a pair of Sennheiser HD 579, but I was just wondering if there's any decent cheapos going around these days, and just how much I'm really upgrading by spending two or three times more money on headphones
I need like a uhhh external dac/amp that can also mix 2 sources into one. What do I do?
STAX SR-009
Focal Utopia
Am I getting chinked or are these still the best cheap closed headphones?

Day 40 of waiting for takstar pro 82
enjoy your chinkphones
I'll be laying back and enjoying my Chord killer with Senn godphones
how can someone be this pleb?
just poor
go for it
how are you still poor if you can install Gentoo and code in Golang?
If you don't make that $1E40 a year salary how will you ever afford a house in San Jose?
give zeos aeon review
>ordered HD800 second-hand
>guy I've ordered agreed to only ship it in a week and a half, so that I won't be on vacation when it arrives
Fuck, the thing which makes it even better is the fact that it's below the average prices I've seen for the headphones. Only thing I consider kind of a risk is the cable, which in the worst case isn't the absolute worst thing to change.
Cute headphones.
Also guys is it true wearing headphones all day will make you bald?
Anyone who's tested the Arcam rHead ? impressions ?
Hourly reminder that my if Nano BL is arriving tomorrow.
I made some easy headphone earmuffs after some anons here talked about the idea a while ago that turned out really well
>is it true wearing headphones all day will make you bald
if you wear headphones every day for more than 15 minute you will go bald
I bet your wife isn't even a virgin LOL
What up anons, I got some new IEMs today, just finished tuning them (EQ).
Maybe I'll report back on my anime watching night.
Is that elliot?
probably that one.
Cool guide user!
I saved it but you should include links, especially on the foam, that's a bit vague.
We don't know exactly what foam we should use, not too firm and not too soft is not very specific.
oof brother, that's a long wait.
the specific foam I used is leftover pick and pluck foam from a pelican case
thepelicanstore.com
it's not that cheap to buy on it's own which is why I didn't mention it, but yea I'll mention that it's what I used specifically
I was watching some vid and the headphones caught my attention
what brand / model are these if anyone knows
stax

We need to find good foam for this on ebay, ali for this to be a great guide.
I just got these new HD381 IEMs, they work beatifully with an EQ.
Headphones don't even make sense to me anymore, why focus the energy on the whole ear? That doesn't seem very efficient at all as everything that's going into the ear canal can only be heard.
I don't like how they feel, headphones are much more comfortable. Also muh soundstage
Do it user.
The comfort is a con with these but can be fixed with a different eartip.
Soundstage is a meme as it is largely dependent on FR.
But to please you, yes these are "open".
Now that the dust has settled. Opinion?
I need like a uhhh external dac/amp that can also mix 2 sources into one. What do I do?
still wondering who your waifu is...
STAX is a meme designed to trick retarded autists into giving their money to the jewpanese.
Because you have a cute anime girl in the picture I'll respond:
You can probably do that in software.
Can I like uhhh plug an optical into my motherboard and mix that with my regular computer audio or is the optical on a motherboard just for outgoing stuff.
I use a fiio e09k/e17 external dac.
get a mixer like a yamaha mg10xu
How much will my porn sound leak through these?
Best recommendation for some in-ears that have the most noise isolation? Need to block noise in a dorm; they'll primarily be used at my computer.
Ok
Sennhieser made in China
I would but it looks too big and overkill for my purposes. Does stuff like that also function as an external DAC because my integrated audio has grounding issues or some nonsense.
>HD 660S
>after five years, still sound great
>Fiio Q5 Mark II
>broke after 6 months
explain that /hpg/
Anyone tried Revols? Are they good? If not then what are some good custom molded wireless earphones with a mic?
Yes the mg10xu functions as a usb DAC as well.
first explain how you had the 660S for 5 years
the 660s is just the hd600 which was released 20 years ago, he probably meant to say hd600 but wrote hd660s since the headphone is the same so why not treat the names as the same
The HD660S came out all the way back in 2018 my dude.
Just around the same time the LCD2 classic closed debuted.
How could I not own it for 5 years?
You're a loser
haha
Ant
I think that boils down mainly to the eartips you'll be using.
ATTENTION! ATTENTION!
MESSAGE FOR IDOL TRASH:
Am I supposed to watch the LL OVA right after season 1, I just started with season 2.
IDOL TRASH! ATTENTION!
Cringe
ATH-50x. Good enough for Most.
I wish I had cute feet.
From what I understand they're quite bright and sibilant. I used to have MDR V6 which is similar and didn't really enjoy that
user, I like your thinking! I know it still sounds like shit, relatively speaking, but NO ONE that typically trolls this board will know about weed whacking or construction. The few who care are trying "noise cancellation," but that don't cut down the 60dB around you!
STRICTLY for low power devices, phone or mp3. But the resolution!
This guy kinda has a point though, I think the chance is higher that I'll plug in some IEMs and suck the lawnmowing noise up.
You need to EQ that shit
Which IEMs? I know they all have Killer isolation, so you're right about quiet. Imagine some under a pair of earmuffs? My problem is I hate sticking shit in my ear! It hurts and I sweat. And they constantly fall out. Nope, I need a head band on my shit!
>I hate sticking shit in my ear
7's confirm this sucks, especially when you're doing messy shit with messy hands and need to take them in and out a lot.
BUY SCHIIT
poor kid 2bh
Got plenty of "clean" options. Strictly referring to the problem of +60 dB Noise around you All Day. It Gets Sweaty. And I haven't seen a headphone that can keep up yet. Why Not 66713605 ?
/hpg/ I just got my 58x and I think it sounds like as better 650. Should I cancel my 6xx order?
THIS Guy. He Sweats.
I bought HD800S's, thoughts?
good buy
dw william ill save you from your father by buying a fully upgraded schiit jotunheim
Does /hpg/ like beyers? I love my DT770 Pros. They get used for hours every day but they still look new. I love their sound and they're comfy
What is the highest impedance I can get if I want to avoid buying an amp?
our boy marvey no longer forced to like something he doesnt like
Yet he still keeps on shilling Schiit with distortion and solder splatters.
yea because he gets paid by schiit
Thanks for the blog update chu~! ;^) XD Kyaaaa owo.
cringe
Congratulations you got it. Such a smart young lad.
This guy looks a bit too happy
Don't buy schiit
You don't understand! Stop buying schiit!
Buy Top- !
Based
HD800S or the LCD-X?
Someone is going to tell you to buy stax. I come from the future.
Colorware
only argon user (aka rakesh) is dumb enough to fall for the shill
Rakesh wishes he had stax to fix his ruined scalp
Who is this "rakesh" and why do you keep addressing me as him?
Look at this loser trying to deceive us by posting a white man's reaction image
Haha what a loser lol
Stop samefagging rakesh
>dont inherit genes for balding because shitskin
>lose hair anyways from wearing mudheisers
No but really. Who is "rakesh"?
A loser and a dumdum. We don't get a lot of those nowaday, am I right haha
He owns argons and HD600s and really likes asking who rakesh is.
