yup , I guess it's for those fun times when you want speakers & 'phones at the same time :dont-know:
or to be like all others/normal . :confused:

once that's all sorted , it is pretty quiet ,...

Been using the Senn HD-6xx's with the Creek amp that's on the headboard. it's a good combo.

sometimes tho headphones are just not the way that I want to listen that day. I flipped the Creek around...

Was lazy last night , so instead of hauling out the big Senns, I went the EZ route and fished out an iPod Touch and IEMs.

The IEMs were Shure SE-210's ...after being impressed with them,...

picked up quite a few cans since last post. This last 3 days alone, grabbed
a nice pair ATH-50 and some DT880pro's in need of a new plug. :crying:

.
very light & sound better than their 1981 vintage. ;)

.
sound pretty damn good - wired from iPod
havn't checked or setup BT since I don't give a ratsazz about that feature

tho comfortable, the ear cups got quite warm after abt 20 minutes.
will...

spent some good time with the new Senns last night (tho only run off an
iTouch) ..quite impressive. ;)

I had forgotten how good these are, as the black pair need the replaced ear pads
replaced...

Earlier in this thread (in case someone's read it :blink:) , I posted about finding a pair of
Sennheiser HD-25's that really endeared themselves to me. I really,really like them.

They were made...

.
With a bit of solder and nimble fingers bring a new lease of life to your headphones and avoid shelling out for an expensive new pair
...

snagged a pair of these couple of days ago. looked online, they seem to have a huge following.
sound pretty good , even driven with a nano. :blink:

Anytime neutral sound and a sub-$400 price figure in the same discussion, headphone enthusiasts...

I've bookmarked both those sites you recommended , will peruse later.

SPile does have 1 no-nonsense, fact based reviewer .. J.Atkinson. But only 1 decent author does not a good magazine make. :(...

won't drive straight :dont-know:

that was what I expect from a fine review , not blathering about cats & shaving brushes (see Stereofool mag)

Mitch , your review gets a big 3 thumbs up from me. Glad you also know who Tyll is. :)

So Tyll Hertsen just retired, for those that don't know the name .... he was probably
the most respected headphone pro reviewer. A "no nonsense" guy, a BS-free guy.
...

since I got the MassDrop Sennheiser HD-6xx's (650's) , family visited for a week, rental became vacant (5 weeks cleanup/paint) and bike riding weather has been really nice ... , I knew the new phones...

.
No, they won't replace the HD-6xx's. But they are very nice, especially for 20+ y.o. headphones.

They have the Mario Bellini sig, and I do like the styling. Very lightweight Orthodynamics...

.
came across from NJ via Fedex, but delivered by the USPS :blink: (2 weeks before estimated date)

triple boxed, very professional, thx Massdrop :bouncy:

listened for 15 minutes before other...

Update from MD:
