>How the fuck this headphones considered as studio standard, one the best mixing headphones in the world that used by famous mixing engineers?? You're not supposed to listen to music on closed back headphones that are good for mixing, the needs of the two activities are completely different
Charles Edwards
What did you compare them to?
Liam Collins
>studio standard >headphones not intended for studio use Good job
Jonathan Cook
I have the 250ohm ones and like them well enough, but your sound will almost never be as good as open cans for casual music listening if you go closed, user. Generally, getting closed means you have a use for needing them isolated.
Isaiah Lewis
are you using a DAC and an amp? at 80 ohms they're going to sound like shit without being powered properly.
Easton Anderson
I got them for use with my iPhone.
Brandon Hall
of course he is. DAC is just short for Digital to Analog converter, everything that can play a digital music file has one. Amp is just short for amplifier and everything you can plug headphones into has one or there would be no sound... and it's properly on everything that's not battery-powered like a phone
that was a mistake, you need something like koss porta pro or similar less-demanding headphones to use the headphone jack on an old eyephone. of course, at least older ones have a headphone jack, never ones don't
Anthony Taylor
he can get away without having a dedicated DAC, but a headphone amp is very different to what you're suggesting, and will be necessary to fully drive headphones at this impedance (particularly if he expects 'audiophile' standards of audio output).
Elijah Green
I'm not sure how you found that. I have a DT-990 that I think is the best pair I owned.
Nathaniel Clark
You had a decent bait thread going but now you blew it.
Anyone find unamped headphones sound extremely shit? Ran hd 558s at a lan and on my phone for 12 hours and the lack of punchy highs mid and boomy lows is instantly noticeable some with lack of sound stage and tinny as fuck. Op is a monumental poser moron for running those cans unamped even a cheap portable battery powered dac would vastly improve the quality of sound
Leo Peterson
Are Phillips x2 just a meme? I was thinking of buying them to use on my S9 Samsung. If not X2 i was thinking of buying sennheiser HD 558. Any thoughts of which is better for everday usage?
Tyler Lewis
idiot.
Justin Bell
t. audiophool
Nolan Cruz
>pre ordered rtx on paperlaunch
Austin King
Oh yeah I'll waste 2k on stupid shit like u lol I get better sound out of $200 shitty 10 year old open cups thru a old 5.1 stereo mode Sony amp
Logan Garcia
Hd 558 are goat I've had mine since launch almost a decade ago haven't showed signs of dying except the foam pads need replacing. They need a fairly decent dac/external amp and have no bass unless you run a eq on them Apart from that very good sound quality great for gaming music and movies. Anyone that says their tinny hasn't heard them connected to a decent amp low power phone or motherboard integrated sound card shit won't be able to power it
Josiah Hughes
>buys close, complaints he cant hear anything outside >buy the most bassy model, "whompy sound" >"panorama"
>sound is brilliant >contruction is solid but pretty bulky >comfortable fit, original earpads are dust magnets >open back love them, indoor use only
Kayden Lewis
>German engineering Glad that you failed for this meme. fucking lmao
Isaiah Morgan
I have these and I don't relate at all. I also don't get why isolation would be bad on studio headphones.
Camden Edwards
You definitely do not need an external amp for 80omhs impedance. If your device can drive the headphones loud enough 90% of the time you do not need an amp. Before you screech at me beyerdynamic themselves do not request to use an amp on the 80omh model.
Hunter Martin
Friend bought them himself Said they sounded like shit till he switched his onboard for a cheap asus card
