KZ everything is garbage, buy rock zircons.
Monoprice 8323s are overhyped and better and more comfortable alternatives can be bought from China.

what even is all that around the cable?

Shielding

Just wanted to say that the hd 650s are absolutely fucking amazing

fuck off, consumerism plagued jew

>mudhesiers

How does the price keep going up? Was it an auction? I got 2 more videos one said '50,000' then another said '55,000'

Those snakes are touching the ground in that pic. This is bad, there should be as little snake touching as possible ideally and they should hang from thin wires. It causes bad sub-bass in the fourth dimensional hyper-frequency regions

Thanks for not reading the part about how those were recommending for me, and also not providing what I should get

yay

now someone tell me why i should regret this

Repost:
Friend of mine is selling a pair of HS5 for $200, so I'm gonna jump on the deal.

I've got a Fulla 2, which I know can function as a preamp for them, just wondering how to do so.
A 1/8 to dual 1/4 from the preamp out all I need?

M30x (I consider them comfortable, the sound is ok)

DT770 Pro 80 ohm. V shaped sound, but detailed sound and very comfy.

For something more neutral, HM5 (slightly bassy), Shure 840, DT250.

I'm looking for cheapish headphones/earplugs that are 1) wireless 2) exercise friendly. Anything that Sup Forums recommends?

what dac should I buy for my hd 600 ?

Don't try to connect TRS-TRS from the Fulla output. TRS to 2x T/S outputs.

Your motherboard is fine.

Perfect headphones don't exi-

I wanna slap a cheap microphone on my cans occasionally for calls for work. I need actually good quality so I can communicate with my shitty underlings who can barely speak English, let alone interpret garbled microphone speak. What do I get?

662 evos which come with velour pads
Oneodio/yenonas which are incredibly comfy
>but those are $30+, monoshit is only $20
Plus the $10-$15 you need to pay for pads that are actually usable. DT250 velour pads do not fit well by the way, unless you enjoy your ears kissing the drivers

No, they're not neutral enough for recording. They are "fun" to listen to though

*snaps*

airpods are pretty good

That's a really expensive cable

The 50k one of for the amp as well

>No bass blocks your path

Bm-800 with pop filter and boom arm

No matter what headphone you buy, it won't silence the voice within.

Looks solid. Thanks user.

Zircons are a poo. Bad build. ZS3 do zircon bass better, and fit a lot nicer. Stock KZ cables do suck shit tho.

what the hell does that mean
and what should I get for recording audio then

>not cutting perfect length cables from your rolls for every setup

Tinnitus is worse than that voice tbqhwylc

(You)

God tier bait

Is there a list of good chinese headphones?
(AliExpress type of brands)

Superlux is pretty well known for Chink-Fi

They look good. Any model you would reccomend?

Depends on what you want.
681/681F/681B for Neutral/Bright Open
668B for V-Shaped/Bright
662EVO for Bassy
669 for V-Shaped
330/660 are Beyerclones (not sure on sound sig)
Samson SR850/Presonus HD7 = 681
Samson SR950 = 669

I think i'll go for the 668B. Thanks user.

Monitors, you shouldn't mix on headphones.
Look into HS5 or LSR305.

If the review references a frequency response graph, who cares?

What the fuck? Why the fuck are you faggots even falling for $300+ shit-tier headphones, when you can get this multi-driver beast right here.

Are all of you fucking autistic?

Zalman mic for $8 USD from amazon. clips onto headphone cable, sounds fine.

Forgot to mention they're open and the stock pads are garbage and need the pads replaced. Something like AKG K240 Velours or HM5 Hybrids

How does it feel to be poor?

>t. driverlet

tiny headphones!

even if it sounds good it's embarassing.

Was gonna connect this to the variable out on the back.

Always thought I preferred neutral sounding headphones, then I got a pair of DT770 pro 80 ohm for cheap and they're by far the favorite of any headphone I've heard.
Looking for something open to upgrade from the 770's now.

>3 feet
Could be a little short, but that sort of cable is correct.

Out of the 5, how would you rank the headphones?

DT990 or if you want an upgrade from your DT770's, TH-X00

I need some headphones that make my ass look good. They need to have strong bass so I can tone my ass.

Any recommendations?

We got you, senpai.

Is that an N logo to the left of the sony logo?

I wonder if N has something to do with bass.

My main musical interests are the following
Heavy psych rock
Progressive rock
Hard rock ("classic" stuff)
Metal (death/black)
Alternative rock
Jazz (fusion/bop/modal)
My tastes go way further than that, but those are the main ones. What sound signature would best work with those? If there isn't one that could cover all of them, I'd like the first four on that list catered to the most.

770, SHP, M40, 668b, 280.

I figured the 990 would be the obvious choice, but it seems based on lurking here their highs are too pronounced even compared to bright headphones.

I bought Bose Around-ear Headphones because I'm a poorfag, but not poor enough. Pretty good so far.

Gonna give them I try, they better be good. Otherwise I'll rape you

Is this bait? Although might as well answer, it's NFC.

Thoughts on the idk h2010? Formerly known as takstar hd2050?

You need to stop being a pleb.

I haven't had experience with it. Some of the anons here have mentioned that the mids are too reccesed and are bright.

>multiple music genres
>including metal
Neutral. Anything else than neutral makes a meal of it.

Plus Neutral works with everything.

how would you even be able to tell? you homo

Ay I just a pair of soundmagic E10 and I'm loving them, but I've never owned a proper pair of IEMs. What's the best way to make sure they last as long as possible?
