Poorfag magnetcucks can't afford either.

well it finally happened. My pair of free Beats I got are falling apart. Time

Idol trash here. On a budget. What's your setup like, user?

Stax flagship model SR-009 ($4000) is objectively worse than a $200 headphones (K701). Sad but true.

How do Stax owners feel about it? What excuses are they going to make?

Stax for life

Recommend me one pair of headphones below $1000 you would think is the best pair.

And anything above $2000 you should probably buy speakers instead :^)

I thought you were a cute anime girl with cute headphone anime feet?

I'll give you something actually in your budget, no need to be dishonest with us user. Koss portapros, check them out!

i dunno if you are trying too call me a poor fag but at the moment i exclusively use Germanic Brands i have a DT880 and a K400

*sips*
We don't talk about 3DPD.

and i just bought my first stax

I like the headphones I see.

Post them, poorfag shitalians

>K400
Unfortunately, nothing Germanic about AKG anymore, it’s a gook wearing skinned Austrian’s skin now. Their proper high-end engineering team is gone, now they will just pump out the pre-existing products from their chinese factories with a notably lower quality than they used to be.

basslets triggered

Anyone here actually listened to the SR-009S? Curious as to how it compares to my vanilla 009.

Has anyone here actually listened to Yggy?

Still garbage

Wasn't that study funded by the same company that makes the k701?

the k400s are from 1991 and yeah one sec taking another photo

if i wanted to feel the nigger bass i would Turn the 10dB on my Receiver and Play it over my speakers

Yes.

Yes. Moreover the difference between the two was in the margin of error. Only a poorfag would use it to rationalize owning shitphones.

these studies don't control for age, sex, gender, genre preference, track selection, income, listening experience, etc. it's not an objective study it's just a circle jerk. it would be like referring to a study on what eating habits are the healthiest but not controlling for smokers. meanwhile, smokers don't care about eating healthy and eat a lot meat. now meat is correlated with high mortality.

dumb. what happens when you test a population of 1000 niggers which headphones they like for their rap music? it's definitely not the akg or hd600 that's for sure.

But still $4000 Stax are worse than $200 headphones. How so? (It's beacuse Stax are useless garbage, lol)

Do the old Beyers have the same based treble as modern ones?

Im assuming you havent seen my graph

Attached: DT880-With-Image.jpg (4000x2000, 1.01M)

Niggers would chose Stax because Stax are expensive and dumb niggers think that expensive means good but actually Stax are garbage sadly

probably would be better if they had the stock rubber pads

we get it you're a poorfag no need to shout it out constantly

What's the absolute best headphone on the market?
I own the HD800 and I've heard the Focal Utopia, and non of them can hold a candle to a speaker half the price.

Yes only rich white men who listen to le Beatles can give an opinion on audio

Am I a poorfag? Maybe, no one knows.
Are Stax garbage? Yes, it's a fact.

Everyone knows, you keep telling us.

Even more based than I expected, wonderful! Nothing quite reveals all the small details like Beyerdynamic treble, audio verita!

it's a fact that niggers like bass more than other races. it's also a fact that men like bass and treble more while women prefer vocals. it's ALSO a fact that older people generally prefer more treble due to hearing loss.

Will everyone in this thread become a Grado boomer once old enough?

Yes, and I will spread the word again: Stax are garbage, it's a proven fact. $200 headphones are better than $4000 Stax meme. Source:
www.aes.org/e-lib/browse.cfm?elib=17441
Why would someone buy Stax low quality products?

What does this user think about the HD 600?

well you keep saying your K701 are the truth of god or so it seems even they dont compare to speakers

Grado comfort is so shitty that I wouldn’t bear it even if it was the last headphone that allows for me to hear treble frequencies.

Idk what that user thinks. But I like them.
Pic: Seems like she knows.

Bull-fucking-shit. I like bass, bit the difference is a nigger will like the muddiest bass there is just so his ears can rumble. If i want base i want it clean. Not overrulling, but definitely there.

>base
yeah and how do we know that you arent a nigger

why are you being insecure? there's nothing wrong with liking bass... unless you are a nigger.. HMMM

How do i know you aren't a jew?

>There is nothing wrong with liking bass
I never insinuated otherwise, it's the quality i was talking about.

>it's the quality i was talking about.
it has nothing to do with quality. black music is centered around bass and always has been. jazz, hip hop, rap, african congo drumming, etc

I've never thought of jazz as bass heavy music. Anyway user probably listens to drum and bass or dubstep or something

I did not say bass heavy, I said bass centered

Because I I'm a Methodist

While that's true they love bass, I see so many niggers on youtube reviewing bluedio or other cheap chink headphones going all wild on the bass, even if it's a bad sounding one.

You won't see a nigger with fidelio's or even takstars, you'll see him with bluedio victories.

I don't understand why you're stuck on this point. who cares? why do I care? I brought it up because anons keep posting a dumb study that has clearly a bad testing methodology

Do you want my HD 600 anime girl feet?

I don't know i'm stoned.

that makes sense, weed makes you stupid

I've only just started this anime but damn, she's so my type.
She sounds so good on HD600.

Attached: 1512522404741.png (1920x1080, 3.82M)

Has anyone ever had problems with the stock cables that come with the HD600s? If so, did you buy a replacement from another company?

Post her feet

>she's so my type.
that's false, you like khazar milkers

This can be taken to an extreme. As the distortion is inaudible, a Samsung earbud should be able to be EQed into an Orpheus throughout most of the audible band.

Will this headphone ever be topped?

Is garbage, on its price and in general.

Will she sound any better when my DX3 Pro arrives I wonder.
Good night, user.

there needs to be a harman curve for each race. why do I have to listen to what a nigger likes? they already have misshapen skulls why wouldn't they have misshaped ear canals?

Attached: 1539941970419.jpg (1024x566, 57K)

>not just learning how to read the raw curves

do you even know what a compensation curve is for?

Yes, being able to read the raw curve is still better than relying on some compensation curve.

you're new to this aren't you?

Has anyone tried Blue headphones? I know that they make good mics

Every fucking compensation curve has some flaw, so why bother.

I don't know how to argue with someone that just says "let's just give up and go home". you wouldn't have proper stereo localization in games for example without research on the ear canal.

Every headphone uses electromagnetism to reproduce sound

Post your headphones and the song you are listening to;

were you placed in special ed classes as a child because you didn't have the social skills necessary to understand the meaning behind people's words?

There's a difference in utility between HRTF and the compensation of a frequency response plot. Why would I use the harman curve when I think the +6dB bass boost is retarded, for example? I can just ignore that if I look at the raw curves.

>every headphone is a transducer
Round of applause everyone, he's figured it out!
