Listen to crazy black metal instead.

>We out here doin bad shit nigga

Original user here, she is qt.

STAXfags hate the HD600 because it's objectively superior to their headphones for $200.

STAXfags never post graphs and only use buzzwords to shill their headphones because their headphones measure poorly.

Do I look cute next to you user?

spoken like a true distortionfag staxlet.

Portable. I listen to music while on the go, so preferably one that works well with android phones.

The hd600 is the ""superior"" headphone most people complain about after regrets start to sink in if they don't fall to post purchase rationalization.

do you consider dissection to be experimental too

She's just got a bad nailbiting habit. She clips them and then trims them further with her teeth.

HD 600 are shitty

Sapphire......

Cherrypicking? there's literally no midfi headphone that causes as many new threads every week complaining about how disappointing they are than the HD600 and HD650.

nikita...

Not available to stax incels

Why settle for Stax when you can have electrostat speakers?
martinlogan.com/en/electrostatic-esl-theory

Can we all agree that the HD600 is the best headphone on paper but it's not for everyone. I hate them myself but it will always be a reference.

>speakers with a micropenis sized sweet spot for listening
why not use headphones?

Because electrostatic speakers are even worse than electrostatic headphones, lol.

>best headphone on paper
hello where is bass?

nikita...

I guess you could call it a good reference. If I was a reviewer I would keep them just for that reason. It basically can tell you if anything is missing something or if something is more forward in a way.

Good Sound

Whats the flattest headphones I can get that are not stupid expansive?

more like gay sound you homo

That's an excellent treble and upper midrange response. Anything but muddy as the filename states. The HD600 are very accurate headphones. I don't even like them, I prefer my DT990 Pro. I guess it's because I'm half black.

I missed /hpg/ since Christmas. Who is this?

HD 600 not going to lie. Soundstage doesn't exist so if you like that with your flat sound.

HD600 or ER4SR.

Shure 1440 and 1840 are possibly flatter but have questionable distortion values.

Neutrality literally doesn't exist in headphones. Don't follow the HD600 shitpushers and try to demo a few, or buy from a shop you can return headphones to, like amazon.

NHA #2, #1 being sapphire

sapphire’s real name. he’s ukranian and doesn’t own any headphones other than DT990 and HD650
nikita...

AAAAAAAAAAAA

Wait wtf did you guys dox sapphire on reddit? How do you know his real name?

Mmm Hmmmm, plug me in, Daddy!

He used the same nickname on his first reddit account and VK the slavic facebook

as it turns out he uses the same name on one of his reddit accounts as he does on the russian social network site vk. his location in vk matches up with some of his deleted reddit posts about living in ukraine.

It's just some boogeyman they created, sapphire/noheadphoneanon/nikita doesn't exist.

A based user sacrificed an hour of shitter time to find him

I don't think nikita is sapphire. sapphire is canadian. there has always been two no headphone anons

>used the same nickname on his first reddit account and VK the slavic facebook
That's really stupid.

nikita...

Holy shit looks like I missed fun times while I was at Dubai.

what do you expect from a guy who posts 24/7 desperately trying to justify poorfaggotry
like i respect niggas who have KSC75s and are satisfied with them but this nigga hates his life and his headphones and is trying to bring everyone down with him

The NHA first plebbit account. I don't remember his newer account names, if you guys can contribute.

I didn’t expect sapphire to be Ukrainian though. I thought for sure he was a leaf

>hd600s are boring
thats exactly why I sold my 598s. glad I didn't fall for the 600 meme

truechip1 and amazing_comment

>too poor to afford something
>call it snake oil

OMEGALUL, RME ADI-2 is the best DAC right now.

The only canadian I can remember here is D2Girls the speaker dude with yggdrasil.

And it probably sounds the same as my realtek onboard soundcard despite being superior because both are beyond the threshold of audability.

Let me get this straight
nikita = sapphire = idol fag ?

No, idolfag is not sapphire and he actually owns a HD600.

nikita = sapphire
idol fag is some other retard who also shills hd600 but unlike nikita he actually owns them

because your amp is dogshit

Where is idol fag? Haven’t seen him around since he went to Japan

yes get a real musical amp like schiit ragnarok.

Scripted and fake

he is canadian, I can find multiple other sources for this. I remember originally seeing it on his ebay page as well but he changed the name of that and I can't find it.

modoom.ml/index.php?sid=1&pid=87838&p=player

nikita is not sapphire. sapphire likes to shill the hd600, qc35, etymotics, and he's a weeb. he likes to use weeb memes like sasuga or satania reaction pics.

Balanced. 6 dB Better, instantly.

or I can just turn the volume up and not gut out my headphones instead

Nice. My leaf radar was going off the charts when I see this sapphire fella post

You're cyberstalking some faggot from Jow Forums. Think about that for a minute. Find something better to do with your pathetic life.

Also HD600 are the world's best headphones (to remain on topic).

You figured it out! Too bad you don't have anything Good

Why people buy Stax if they sound objectively worse than mid-fi?

The internet is for porn!

just contain your autism and stop shitposting and you won't have people trying to name you

Yea which is why I thought sapphire and idol fags are the same. The way they type are also similar

Indeed

Attached: 2 GB Microdrive.jpg (1280x960, 81K)

pretty sure IT would defend the hd600 but he wasn't shitposting as hard as sapphire was about them and would often take some of the blame. not defending IT he has assburgers but still
