Reminder that your headphone is shit if it doesn't score well in this list.

Is this the thread where people pretend their poorfag headphones (that they had to save up for LOL) are better than headphones that cost >$800?

Nice try, this is the original list.

Nice edit, sorry the facts make you mad.

Kind of retarded question, but does anyone plug their headphones into their xbawks controllers and uses them wireless? I'm wondering how bad the difference would be compared to wired

That looks absurdly amazing, just the fact that there's some korean extensive as fuck review of it with expensive hardware. If only I knew what I was looking at
Anything if it's good I'll get one of those wireless adapters thanks senpai

is the Koss KSC75 a good start to audiofaggotry?

No, it's the end. The final redpill and true endgame.

uncomfortable and your ears will get hot and irritated

Reminder that if nobass no soundstage “neutrality” is what you want a 4070 does it 1000x better than a HD600 by merit of literally having the best imaging on any headphone in the world. Snapheisers can’t even win at their own game.

No get koss porta pros. EQ them and you have better sounding system than BW diamonds

Prove that the 4070 has the best imaging with objective data. I'll wait.

>implying sennheiser povertycels can afford that

>objective data
I don’t subscribe to glorified audiophool snake oil sorry. “Objective data” in headphones is about as useful as objective data in food.

/hpg/ - SBAF Lite.

t. seething pseudoscientific objectivist
There is literally no difference between masturbating to cables and masturbating to Rtings graphs.

Lol this retarded staxtard. If you buy anything above l700 you are audiophool yourself

>muh L700 worship
Yes L700 is the best model in the new stax lineup but the old stax’s are just as good in their own way if not better sometimes. L700 and Lambda Pro are two completely different sounding beasts that are basically impossible to compare. Nevermind a fucking closedback Stax.

it looks ugly as fuck though

this is literally jewish d&c
all stax are based and redpilled fuck off

what music player do you guys use?

Spotify

i dont use a music player i just sit there and look at my equipment and imagine how the music sounds like

pono

mpd

i play 96kbps mp3s through my hd600 because it’s all i can afford after spending so much on headphones

iTunes™

Neutron, cmus, lollypop, and musicbee

For me, it's the HD600. The world's best headphone at any price. Objectively.

Can you not?

Nice edit
Real list is here

why are you so immature man

Does WASAPI make a difference?

>why don’t you like sucking BBC man
Dude I think you might be gay

s m h please behave yourself

>tfw a 20 year old kitchen countertop has higher fidelity than every headphone in production today
rly mks u thnk

He is very gay, just like every sennsodomite in this thread

>please join the cult of black cock
Dude this isn’t relevant here.
>>tfw the legendary black mamba has better length and girth than every other penis today
Why are all of you talking about black men’s penises?

wow. another /hpg/ flushed down the toilet!

This is what happens when you have a hobby with no technological improvements, the only thing left to do is shitpost.

any furries here?

Yeah me, the L700 fag.

Yep, and as usual it's the sennsodomites shitting up the thread with their sinful garbage and retarded "preference rating" nonsense.

How big of an upgrade would M40x be compared to my chink Tin T2's?

Attached: 1544916568881.png (926x1080, 1.2M)

What’s /hpg/‘s favorite album? Mine’s Zenjin - Pseudoscorpion

M40x is one of the best headphones with a preference rating of 88.

From literally who?

One of the best for sounding like mud yeah

It's a computer calculated method of assessing headphones based on measurements. It's 100% objective.

100% mud

So in other words it’s literally an NPC preference rating?

ok so I should go for the m40x right?

Yeah if you enjoy the sound of mud

/hpg/ hates preference rating because it exposes many of their expensive headphones for being shit. For example look at this DT1990, a 500 dollar headphone:

dropbox.com/s/o7zkgbc1b6flevp/Beyerdynamic DT1990 (Analytic Earpads).pdf?dl=0

A preference rating of 73.

Meanwhile look at the HD600, a very neutral headphone that measures well for only $300:

dropbox.com/s/dm0m6u3s3b4zqzl/Sennheiser HD600.pdf?dl=0

A preference rating of 92.

Why does the hd600 sound like muddy shit then?

Yes, it's a very good headphone, see:

dropbox.com/s/argrz6rfl3l5a0i/Audio Technica ATH-M40x.pdf?dl=0

>108/100 after EQ
>Literally above stuff like HD600s

Objectively, because you are objectively deaf, objectively speaking. Objectively.

No shit, EQ is god mode for headphones.

Wrong. /hpg/ hates it because it’s literally an NPC rating scale and no one but “objectivist” wannabe scientist audiophools believes in it.
There is nothing objective about Olive Oil’s 70 participant study because the sample size sucks dick.

>if I use the word objective enough my opinion becomes true
unironically what harmantardons believe desu

>Tin T2's go from 60 to 95/100
dropbox.com/s/fmpteg9g8mtbgue/Tin Audio T2.pdf?dl=0

Okay gotta try this shit out

If your headphones doesn't score at least 80 on this list, it's shit.

Yes they go from not muddy to extremely muddy, really great

anons on /hpg/ call it muddy because it makes their expensive headphones seem like a bad investment, it's a form of post purchase rationalization

What's with the muddy meme is it the same autist schiit/stax shitposter?

Sapphire? Maybe.

github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq
are these EQs good

Yeah, I would ignore him, he's an angry cable worshiping retard subjectivist who cannot understand science.

No it’s because it literally sounds like you’re swimming in a lake of viscous lower mids.
Nikita is a hardcore harmantardon. Sapphire is a hardcore neutral (ER4SR/HD600) fag. If anything they’re the ones spamming this Olive Oil shit right now.

>muh science!
>cites an unrepeated 70 participant glorified survey and some redditor
What did he mean by this?

In other words Nikita and Sapphire are respectable posters and you just don't like them posting the truth? Gotcha.

Stop bragging sapphire, you are the worst shitposter in /hpg/.

Oh hello Sapphire.

>full-sized
>closed, at least medium isolation, but more is a plus
>sound signature is probably neutral, but I'm unsure, so it's a little flexible, but I'm going to be using for music, movies, animu, vidya, calls, etc. I don't know my preference yet but I would really prefer neutral to start with
>I've never bought my own headphones and my brother bought a $50 gayming headset (turtle beach) from walmart, which is what I'm currently using, so I want to get something that isn't casual redditor shit
I basically just want the best price:performance, "budget king" of headphones.
also I know surround sound is a complete meme and a gimmick, but ones with good virtual surround sound would be ideal for vidya n stuff

so far these are what I'm thinking, so this is the comparison, if you can find something better and/or cheaper, then let me know
amazon.com/NVX-Over-Ear-Headphones-ComfortMax-XPT100/dp/B0093PVTPS

They never discontinued it so much as they did never mass produced it. It simple wasn’t a consumer model
>Not all stax phones are good retard
No shit. But lots of them aside from the L700 are. Autistic faggot.
