/sen/ Sennheiser Headphone General

The place to talk and debate the fine details of whether the HD650 or the HD600 is the superior, best headphone in the world. Beyerhiss and AKG metallic resonances need not apply! in here we only recommend the cream of the crop.

Why does no one talk about 800/800S anymore...

That's a lot of neet money.

Because only the HD650 can provide distilled, pure sound fidelity while not fatiguing your ears from badly recorded modern music.

one poster ran it into the ground with his shitty posts and people would rather buy stax

Limp dick bass and roller coaster treble. Leave stax to the /hpg/ crowds.

This post is accurate
>When the younger 650 and 660 S both have driver matching, but the older, more senile 600 doesn't

At least, if they sound anything like my old ad700s did

As we can all see, the 600 is clearly superior

The driver matching makes all the difference. No RNG or speculation crap, you know?

Otherwise, the 650 is clearly superior

I'll quote senpai on this topic:
>For the Sennheiser former flagship series black box, silver driver HD 650 > HD 600 > 580 > original black driver HD 650.
>Really, the current HD 600 and 650 sound almost identical with the HD 600 being ever so slightly bright and the HD 650 ever so slightly dark. The 650 is better built though with a much better cable, better bass, and hand matched drivers making it a slightly better headphone. The cable thing is huge as the HD 600 stock one terminates with a ridiculous 3.5 mm jack.
> The 600 and 2014 650 sound great with the 650 a tiny bit better for sibilant cymbals but the original black driver 650 was god awful. It's probably not worth upgrading if you have a working 580/600/silver driver 650 in good condition.

No veil, only bliss away from sibilant and evil treble.

Those aren't the HD 650s (Driver matched)

Step back

>that giant fucking treble spike

Why HD 650s are the best headphones, obviously. They're also driver matched (of course)
