Anyone has any other reviews of the 668B? Considering either ath-m30 or 668B.. but heard a few people say tt 668b requires an amp to actually sound good. can anyone clarify?

668B sounds pretty good just by itself. An amp and some simple mods would make it better. I plug it in directly into an MP3 player without an amp and it plays superbly.

Best if you go and try it, if you know friends who own one.

Don't quite remember. Approx 4-5 days, using pink noise and some drums and some music. It already sounded pretty good without burn in.

If you don't mind the Made-In-China kind of look are willing to do some simple mods, go for it.

Err, no pic of the process yet. But it really is damn friggin easy to open it up.

Just place a knife tip/mini screwdriver on the 12 o'clock position (there's a small space below the cap at that position)and pop the caps (the ones labelled 'Superlux' and 'HD668B 2x56 ohms').

Then it's just simply unscrewing a few screws and fooling around with it.

Later I post some pics when I'm not so swamped with work.

just reminded me of my Denon AD2000, remove a few screws and the whole thing comes apart, replace damping material inside, add this add that, finally put it back into the box, tuck it in a corner somewhere, I think I put it there .... laugh.gif

Why dual entry?

1. So both L & R signal pass through the same amount of wire. I don't trust that steel cable headband as a signal conductor. And some users have reported that when the head band vibrates (due to movement or whatever), it affects the sound.

2. Because I can. My listening ability is not good enough to notice any differences... I just do it for the heck of it. =D

You can actually notice the difference without one to compare with on the spot? Wow.

I'm interested in getting the AKG K240 velour pad to see if there are any improvements as mentioned here:
http://www.soundtrackforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=257

17 Euros (shipping not included yet). I wonder how much is Jaben or anywhere is selling.

I've been listening to superlux HD668 for quite a while already before trying yours in Jaben last time.Hence the different can be heard pretty clear to me smile.gif

Anyway for velour pads I already tried those before.Comfortable as hell on my HD668 in comparison with the stock pads that HD668 come up with.I haven't notice the sound quality change yet since I tried those for a short while only.

I'll go and see my friend later and see if he can lend me the K240 for a while soon.
