I doubt it unless Japan come out with another artbook soon ^^, I guess all those mangakas and otaku spend all their money on their stuff (some figure can cost up to USD$500+ sometimes) so no more to spend on headphones. Even that one is dated way back on 2007... sweat.gif

funny thing that my general cannot run away from my modded hd650 ler.....
one good in commanding troops,issue MAD (Mass weapon of Destruction ), and giving terror/fear in the battlefield
other is great in ambushing,sniping attack,assination,sabotaging

u need a good setup(source, amp n cable) to make it shine.
me myself havent jump to some of those yet.

maybe some sifus can help.

but the best way is to audition the headphone yourself.

The HD650 is pretty gd even without amp, but of coz if you can afford a gd amp, then it will b better tongue.gif HD800 is still N/A in M'sia for the time being, but Jaben will b bringing in soon I guess. Not sure how much they'll b selling it, but Davis is selling at Rm5.8k(on9 trading)

My stock 650 driven by portable Govibe Sharp amp is good enough, but it can definitely scale with cables and amp so it's quite fun ^^

HD800 you cannot just stop at buying the headphone alone.. that is only like a part of it. You will need to spend quite a amount on a good desktop amp to drive it properly.

wonder my setup able to make HD650 shines?

Source : Laptop
DAC : Mocha DAC (received last week)
AMP : Little Dot MK III (building in progress, estimated done in 7 days)

RCA cables still not yet decide...
This setup can drive HD800 well? tongue.gif

sadly nope....u will need at least cdp source or u.s.d.2k dac pair with laptop
for amp, most recommend amp is SPL phonitor/auditor or tube amps like 2 x6SN7 or 4x 12ax7 at least to make the hd800 truly spectular

The thing about the HD800 is that its such a monster to amp properly. Its a really transparent headphone and will readily show up a gear's particular qualities. Too bad I missed the meet yesterday because at least can try out on different gears and cables Sep90 have and also to get opinions on the Audio-Gd gear I have to amp the HD800. Hopefully May 1st is can meet-up.

Someone from another forum I talked to had a HD580 and a HD600 - the original version with black silk screen and a brass ring around the inner coil. offer to sell at RM620 and RM700. Sounds like a good deal. Should I get hold either of this? I remember PcWork commented this being the best sounding of all??

These are pictures he sent of the HD600.

hm..for the price. you should buy that HD600.
it's cheap for that price provided the condition is ok.

it's true that before this. the version with cooper rings sounds the best, compare to newer version (during 2002-2008) which removed the cooper rings while still mantain black silk screen.

according to my experience. it is still true for HD650.
however. before launching of HD800.
i personally tested a unit of HD650 with silver colour of acoustic silk. and that's the best sounding HD650 imho. and i personally bought a pair of it.

so .. imho. i will personally rate
Silver silk HD650 > Copper ring Black Silk HD650 >>>>>>>>> Black silk HD650 without copper ring.

newest HD650. with silver silk. doesn't suffer any viel problems, less boomy compared to black silk HD650. faster sound signature. and imho more neutral.
and direct drive of this version of HD650 is possible even though connect it to a notebook soundcard.
while previous version HD650. without proper amping. is very very muddy and slow.

and i personally very salute to sennheiser company. that they continue to upgrade the HD650.. even though their new flagship is going to release. and imho. those who wanna keep a HD650. now is the time. because this newest version sound the best across 4/5 types of variation HD650 i ever heard.
some even with paper like acoustic silk which is slightly brown in colour..

and i personally very salute to sennheiser company. that they continue to upgrade the HD650.. even though their new flagship is going to release. and imho. those who wanna keep a HD650. now is the time. because this newest version sound the best across 4/5 types of variation HD650 i ever heard.
some even with paper like acoustic silk which is slightly brown in colour..

Hey bro...still awake? smile.gif

Ya, I decided to go for the HD600, was dealing with the seller online from the US. I heard the old version once while working at the Philharmonik way back when the HD600 first come out, thought it sounded very very real.

Seems like Sennheiser continues to quietly bring about changes their HD6x0s through the years. the HD600 itself seem to have gone thru 3 different versions. As for the HD650 latest version, it probably is the best version now. Maybe I'll audition one at the Jaben meet this sat.

Makes one wonder....what will happen to the HD800 over the years.

PS Well, there's still the HD580, so whoever is interested can PM me and I'll pass the contact. Looks like I'll have to let go of my current HD600 doh.gif

personally senheiiser is one of the respected headphones companies that actually listen to consumer's feedbacks and continue to impress us still....
it may be insulting/looking down to other's headphones companies but after trying various most of the cans/high end flagships cans/ the most durable/cost effective and performance wise i would say it senheiiser imo ...
grados i only respected the professional series like ps-1/ps-1000 or vintage rs-1 with pink drivers which is overpriced and rare to get
akg seems to take it's own sweet time to come out a flagship like legendary k1000 which has been discontinue since then (putting akg 702 beside akg 701 and it is not replacing 701??? really dun understand??? onli come with detachable cables/black version and soundsignature basically the same)
beyer is imo is very respected and neutral but their cans requires serious juice amping/ amp pairing and their flagship T1 is bout 600 ohm as well
for Sony like pcwork told us the oldest version is much better than current version...doesnt have any expectation anymore for them in near future....older version like sony r10,qualia 10 like fading legend in past...
afterall this is all rambling of my own personal views on current headphones market now...

Someone from another forum I talked to had a HD580 and a HD600 - the original version with black silk screen and a brass ring around the inner coil. offer to sell at RM620 and RM700. Sounds like a good deal. Should I get hold either of this? I remember PcWork commented this being the best sounding of all??

These are pictures he sent of the HD600.

My 1st Gen HD600 has finally arrived. Comparison with a recent HD600 with the metallic screen (made in 2007 I think from the date printed on the driver inside) definitely shows some sonic differences.

The 1st gen HD600 sounds fuller, more spacious and depth in soundstaging. It is not so piercingly bright yet very clear and airy. In fact details and timbre seems very close to a HD800 without HD800's upper treble brightness and without HD800 timbral refinement.

Tried the Cardas cable and the DHC Aftermarket cables on both. The 1st gen definitely sounded so much more natural in its instrument presentation, while using the DHC cable make it sound harsh and a bit grainy. So I suppose the often talked about synergy between HD600 and Cardas cable is true after all.

As for the recent HD600, it seems that the cardas and DHC makes it sound even brighter so perhaps just a upgrade to a HD650 cable will be better.

Didn't really believe there was a difference until I get one because I was always bothered by the newer HD600 brightness compared to the rest of the Sennheiser that I have and listened to.

I am very amazed by the fact a 10 year old HD600 sound so close to a HD800... It has the Sennheiser house sound...This must be what the first batch when reviews define the HD600's legendary neutralilty and natural presentation of instruments. Definitely will keep this.

was planning straight go for HD800, but from what i read here, HD 800 really need good source and it need good amp to drive it.
So better just get HD 650.

u cannot only cincai go for hd800
+ u wont know the pairing well 1st even u go for just the cables upgrade...matching is a b!t@^ with it
u will get headache/a lot of holes in wallet just to pair this monster with source and amp....
later u will blame that yur source and amp not up to task....that is the problem with high end headphones
unless u r keen into focus yur heart and attention into playing headphones and have deep wallet then it will reward u in near future....but not all ppl r keen into playing ...they rather go for hifi and it is about the same price as amp/dac/ hd800 setup....think carefully whether u wan to jump into it 1st or not....

dunno what cable to pair with it too.. shakehead.gif
seems like need a really good amp to get it to fly.. cant seem to replicate the memory on at timesquare TT on how good the vtg sounds....

Hahaha...quite agree there...getting source, amp to match the HD800 is a real pain... Spent almost close to the price of a HD800 just for the gear to match it now...

let me clarify for u 1st....amps usually bring out the bass, depth,separations,lower mids colorations and reveal the full potentials on the cans....
the sources/dacs does the imagining,soundstage,how the analogue is defined,highs whether it is rolled off or well defined and airy......and how clean is yur source from digital format (pc) to analogue format....upsampling and clocking does most staging conversions
1 simple analogy....how could yur music can be pure if yur electrical and conversion is not clean and prone to inviiting others unwanted noise and disturbances?

Its because nobody knows. Some tip, check the HD555 padding all round the web and compare it to your own, or at least post the picture and dimension, maybe someone with HD555 will compare it to yours

just come across the interesting pairing, we have tried Govibe PPK with Recabled Hd650 and it make me and pcwork hard to sleep. The soundstages and transparency was widely open up.

it come to a conclusion that ppk shall only goes well with recabled 650. Today i did a interesting testing with one of our audiophiles freinds from china...

we use the stock HD650 with ppk, and it make us surprise again, the pairing was so well, we compared it with hifiman ef5 and linearossa k3...PPK was the best with HD650, the mid low was so special, i canot even conclude that darkvoices 337 was better than it now...up to this point....

Apart of that, we have tested HD600, the sound was just so great with rudistor linearossa k3, the pairing was very good, refined fast sound.. biggrin.gif

Let me the audiophiles forum better, come and post more comments on how was the amp pairing going with our lovely sennheiser cans biggrin.gif

Hello there,

I'm a HD600 user here. I've been using it for around 8 years now and it is still serving me well. However nowdays I've been using my headphones more extensively due to me living in a rented condominium.

Anyone else here own a HD600? Nowdays everyone has a HD650 and I'm feeling a little out of place. Currently driving my HD600 with the headphone output from my Cambridge Audio Azur 840A. Getting a dedicated headphone amp this month end.

u can test out the HD600 VS HD650 in jaben. new batch HD650 really not bad.
u can try the cable of sennheiser oso.
it bring quite good sound to HD600 as well.

from what i've read.. hd600 and 650 is different.. hd600 can stand its own ground.. and some prefer it over 650..
as long as u like it.. doesnt mean u have to upgrade.. if not.. later all go hd800.. u'd feel out of place oso.. but where to fork 1kpound for that? shakehead.gif

I am using the a replacement wire now. Custom made using Straightwire cables after the stock cable gave in due to my abusive treatment.
Well I have tested the HD650 before, not really familiar hence probably not to my liking, but it is probably because I'm already used to the HD600, plus the HD650 was not tested using my usual setup, so probably there are some other variables which may affect its performance. Well I'll be proud to be the HD600 owner still.

I see, I was planning on grabbing the new HD650 also b4, but after I got the CrossRoads Edge for my BD DT990, I'm actually very satisfied with its sound xD Now still thinking whether or not to buy the HD650.

Guys, CX-300 is the best Sennheiser in-ear headphones I've ever owned and use for years. I'm planning to get either CX-300 II or PX-100 II. Any advice?

Hello there,

I would like to know where can I find after-market cables for my HD600. My budget is less than RM400, although I might be able to stretch a bit if the improvement is significant. Also I would prefer if it comes with a default 6.3mm plug.

please do spend more than that.. pm pcwork for his cable...
and u'll be suprised how much detail and how far details can be produced by the cans using his cable...
his was a product of lots of testing.. a masterpiece.
u can also choose whatever plugs u want.. big, small, balance, no plugs, etc...

instead of minor upgrade.. which imho not worth the sonic upgrade.. get something midrange.. then u'd be stuck with it until u go high end..
if not.. later u'll think ur upgrade not enuff.. end up upgrading again later..

the grill of HD580 can be directly detach . unplug the cable first, then the grill can be taken off. look at the side of the earphone.
then the HD600 grill oso ngam ngam can fit. no mod needed. just push it in, it will fit perfectly.

that's gonna change the signature..
plus its so damn expensive i wouldnt even consider it..
better buy w11jpn, w10ltd, or one of those limited ed audiotech woods..

if im going to wood it.. i will cut it out exactly like the original housing.. and reuse the original grill.problem is getting good woods...

hi,

I already dream of buying sennheiser HD650 for a long time laugh.gif

Currently studying in UK, it looks like HD650 is cheaper at here, around 250 pound.

Is it worth buying HD650 at UK?

Anything I need to be aware before buying? I only know the latest version is the best.

thanks. notworthy.gif

LOL!...I think this is getting too much. Well, the HD25-13 is for field recording, the HD800 is for listening pleasure, the HD600 for checking my mixing, and the HD650 for...erm....not sure yet...I am thinking of selling some of the headphones I seldom use and try other brands like AKG, Grado, Denon....this brand loyalty of mine is carrying it too far doh.gif .

u just need a recable hd800 ...trust me ....when u listen back to low models...then u will know wat is missing with it
in my case, hd600 doesnt have the grand imagining as hd800 bass very lembik and missing body...
my favourite hd650 after didint listen for quite a while, listen back and found too much mids colorations and lower register not as tight as flagship
but that is driven by balanced setup and recabled .....maybe some time passed, i grew accoustomed to my hd800

Hmm....I agree about the HD800. About the HD600, mine is the first generation black silk and Brass Gold ring around the driver version. The HD650 is the new silver screen version. I was testing them out today, trying with the Cardas and DHC cable. Surprisingly, the new HD650 with the DHC cable sounds like the 1st gen HD600. With the Cardas, the HD650 has stronger bass and slight roll off treble.

So if given a choice, I like the HD600 with the Cardas cable, and at the moment, the Double Helix cable with the HD650. Haven't try PcWork's new cable yet but I think will visit Jaben and give both headphones a try with the cable. Not sure of upgrade on the HD800 cable yet...very costly....

Besides the HD800 which I listen for pleasure, the one i like the most is the old HD600 because it's imaging is quite good, and very balanced sound and I use it mainly for mixing at my studio. . Still not sure about the HD650 though....maybe for bedtime listening....

UPDATE July 15, 2010, 4:45 pm

I change my opinion about the HD650 sounding similar to the HD600 1st Gen version. It sounded nowhere the same. The HD650 has has smoother treble, and more bass. The mids are quite nice smile.gif It proabably took a while to settle in.

Hehe when I got money la..Or hopefully can get a good price in the 2nd hand market(if there is ever one). Now focusing on getting a good DAC first as it benefits both headphones and speakers. But yeah will one day come and audition to feel its power rclxms.gif

Hey Kriish. smile.gif The Pcwork Symphonica cable is made by Pcwork's special brew of cable which nobody but him knows what are the exact ingredient, but we know one thing for sure. With 1.6 years hard work of research and design on the cable, and for the fact that the early bird cables were swept up just like that, AND for the fact that you can test it out in Jaben if you want since they are carrying it in too, it means it's just that damn good. And if you know him closer and personally, you'll know how careful and thorough he does things.


So don't think twice and just get it. smile.gif

ok it has been a while since i posted my last reviews bout senheiiser cables here
but i think it will be the last one unless some1 (ahem) come out with a new senheiiser cable in nearby future....
today i will write my reviews about PcWork's Symphony cable which i tested in Jaben with Denon CDP paired with North Star 192 MK1(musical favor dac) and paired with Rudistor Rpx-33 Dual Mono

Looks - Mite not be the best eye candy on the market compare to some of best Headfi's exaggerated looks and exotic looking expensive but i can give a green go for it's solid built and good workmanship done by our wizard here.... - 7/10

Workmanship - Yes!, possible every detail and nuance has been pay to carefully done for cable itself and rest assured that he ahem ( extremely prideful) in making and creating the cable... where u can get a cable who has 2 different colors left and right and transparent at the same time??( maybe if he can add supernylon or just put some shinning crystal/bling stuff then it will be perfect )lol - 8/10

Sound quality - ahem before i jump into reviews itself, pls check back my previous post i did some reviews of senheiiser cables from usd 200 to 400 and most of them r Headfi's famous cables which i love and loathed some of them...well maybe preference play a role here but most of my setup r based on neutral setup so that i can tune it to my perfection and doesnt color too much and overdid the mids tonality

High- now to famous treble which the senheiiser hd650 doesnt have due it's laidback signature, after listening for 2 tracks with Rodrigo Y Gabriel, it has very smooth highs which doesnt overpierce and doesnt give simmering effect to user itself... the spacing is done correctly when the tamacun and guitars kick in without sounding artificial fake or overdone ....if i have a complain then only it doesnt give as wide as K1000 or Hd800 or as airry as i would prefer it but it's is currently limited by headphone's driver and restriction ..overall a very nicely done upper frequency without giving sibliance - 8.5/10

Mids - most of the senheiiser headphones r famous for their mids and i can attest even the die hard fans who loved vocals and orchestrals will melt away by it's house signature... it is true since most of my friends from Dynamics moved to Electrostatics which is unparalleled in mids and liquid,smooth and wide soundstage but that is other story...the symphony cable made the mids very very smooth (notice the word smooth not lush) lush is meaning overdone in mids tonality and clouding the rest of frequency, imagine when u put too much cream on the coffee or tea, what it will become? it will be cloudly or overly thick and no more coffee taste or tea taste (excuse me, but i think that is easier way to explain if u guys r coffee fans or tea tarik fan rite?) laugh.gif the lower registry and upper registry is smooth without sacrificing details nor aggressive + effortless making the music flowing through...this was tested through my Beck (Face ) and Moon on the Water...it is neither too thick nor thin but just right texture for it and this is extremely correct tonality balance mid i have heard
this i think it is major improvement on the senheisser itself thumbup.gif 9/10

Bass - well without bass it will be damm boring and not enough umph as i would call it... here i would like to explain there r 2 type of bass - the midbass and sub bass.... the midbass r most ppl will be drawn into it ( when u turn certain volume up for yur headphones, then the midbass will come out and surrounding u with it) that is midbass which registered the mids and lower mids and that wat we call it dynamic bass (electrostatics have slight less dynamic bass but make it up for their superb bass and refined layering) sub bass is the decays, layering and impact that goes all the way down without any colorations (when coloration happens, the sub bass is clouded and u could hear the bass rolled off, best way to test use a cd track with fast visceral drums beat and listen to double beat itself or piano's depth itself....if the sub bass is clean u will notice and hear the pianos passages and how hard or softly the pianist play)
this maybe a tough choice for me but the bass is definitely there but it lacks impact and maybe a bit slow for my taste..dun mind me but i started out as basshead to high fidelity and extremely fussy when it comes to bass.....not to rain on the parade but judging if it has a bit of speed or bass impact then it will be ideal enough to handle even the extremely complicated bass passage like technos, fast music and so forth...
but it is not fair to compare, since i using my previous experience from truly balanced setup to drive my stubborn hd650 and it has more speed,body,prat and very effortlessly giving me goosebumps when i played Gabriel tracks or listening to Koji Tamaki sorrow's voice
but judging from it's price and performance and maker's signature, it is a no brainer and it is very very good for it's price ratio vs performance
and to be fair, if pcwork (ahem damm u celaka doh.gif ) come earlier with freaking cable i wouldnt need to spend rm60k (not rm30k bro, the vahalla and crystal cable ultra how much already ler??? + furutech top of line flux power,shunyata top of line? and i got freaking thick crystal cable ultra interconnect ) doh.gif
it is worth every penny and it is bout 80% performance of some balanced setup i heard - highly recommended 7/10

that is for Symphony cable and overall i can heartily recommend to ppl who doesnt believe in cable wise and have a go at Jaben itself
come and audit for itself and c whether it's playing tricks on yur own ears and eyes when it is driven by puny Govibe amp itself
overall - 8.5/10 ( well worth for it performance's and price range )highly recommendable

Wow, Sep90...80% of a balanced set-up? I'm really tempted to give it a go. Just got myself a HD650 and am being seduced by its sonics with my neutral set-up.

Hehehe...yea...the HD800 is great for listening on the main rig and is like a combination of both HD600 and HD650 at and its very real in its timbre but I find the treble somewhat "weak".

On the other hand, the HD650 is quite, quite nice with the othe FUN. Now tempting to have a try with the Symphonica...

but budget...the other day bought the HD650 out of impulse without thinking....

Hmmm...Sieveking or Symphonica or Digital Interface....

i was quite suprised at 1st when i played my cds through it as well but i can agree it gave the details and sonics wise as good as balanced setup itself
maybe the balanced r 20% r improved on the noise level,body and timing as well...but somehow it is quite a revealing experience for me since it has almost benefit as the balanced itself....bass and imagining wise the balanced setup excel at and the symphony signature (pcwork's own hd650) i tested just using his puny Govibe amp almost cover the major faults for hd650.....maybe that why it doesnt have bass layering as refined and impact as good as my balanced setup...doesnt rolled off when bass hit and shook my cheek effortlessly but there is a room for improvement if pcwork wan to come out with V2 tongue.gif hahaha
anyhow do try it out at Jaben and frankly it is no brainer for it's price and performance ratio...maybe i down to honest fella when it comes to reviews but i dun favor anyone when giving reviews...somehow pcwork and i able to share common idea and sound signature wise laugh.gif

anyhow back to hd800, treble is associated the upper frequency...u r saying the the hd800 is not detail enough or bright enough? ><
timbre is mostly refer to body or upper mid to lower frequency itself....i think u mixed both up....
most hd800 has crazy amounts of details even omega Stax bow to it...lol it doesnt have the body, lower smooth range as good as omega but 3d holographic and soundstage hd800 r on par with Omegas....
but i still finding a suitable suitor for my hd800...the silver/gold is good but it's lack body and ahem ( i am too fussy most probably) very damm thin mids which go haywire when i played vocals but great for everything i throw at it
plan yur budget wisely 1st, get something that maximized everything in 1 shot....
sieveking aledi usd100 ++ or more, try to get something will benefit rest of chain from downward to upwards

have to agree on the bass part, it is a tiny weeny bit slow, on those tight passage it is slightly lacking.. but then.. most people wouldnt even notice in the first place.. i only notice it when comparing my vtg and the hd650+symphonica on darkvoice se337.. but darkvoice is not a fast amp either.. and vtg is a bassy headphone to begin with. i think it's 53mm (vs senns 40mm) driver is doing the job of coping with it.

i do find combo with the ppk immediately fixed the bass response.. so, probably just need a faster amp to pair it with. that aside.. it does great in everything else..

Oops, I meant to say that the treble in the HD800 is sometimes quite bright to the extent that sometimes I wonder if it is the actual recording's mastering or it is just the HD800 being so revealing. Detail wise it is absolutely fantastic. I can zero in on a musical line in an orchestral performance. I do agree with you in most aspects about the HD800 performance. nod.gif

Maybe my terminology is still a bit mix-up with how musicians talk about. Timbre I mean to say is how much of a realistic body and texture of a musical instrument the HD800 is able to reproduce, especially piano, solo violins or group of violins, guitar compare to real life. In this respect, I felt the HD800 is phenomenal with natural sounding R2R type DAC like the DAC-19DSP. On most sigma-delta type DACs, the HD800 seems to reveal the slight digitalness of the sound.

I was thinking of jumping in on the first batch of the Symphonica earlier but I was held back by the thought of a 1/8" plug instead of the usual 1/4" plug and if using an adapter would affect the signal path. I guess testing it would be the best option at Jaben. Hopefully, during the AV show. I'll drop by early tomorrow as it might be quieter smile.gif

Great write-up bro Sep90.

At least now i have a yardstick to judge how the sound of HD650+Symphonica is compared to the very best available.

ok it has been a while since i posted my last reviews bout senheiiser cables here
but i think it will be the last one unless some1 (ahem) come out with a new senheiiser cable in nearby future....
today i will write my reviews about PcWork's Symphony cable which i tested in Jaben with Denon CDP paired with North Star 192 MK1(musical favor dac) and paired with Rudistor Rpx-33 Dual Mono

Looks - Mite not be the best eye candy on the market compare to some of best Headfi's exaggerated looks and exotic looking expensive but i can give a green go for it's solid built and good workmanship done by our wizard here.... - 7/10

Workmanship - Yes!, possible every detail and nuance has been pay to carefully done for cable itself and rest assured that he ahem ( extremely prideful) in making and creating the cable... where u can get a cable who has 2 different colors left and right and transparent at the same time??( maybe if he can add supernylon or just put some shinning crystal/bling stuff then it will be perfect )lol - 8/10

Sound quality - ahem before i jump into reviews itself, pls check back my previous post i did some reviews of senheiiser cables from usd 200 to 400 and most of them r Headfi's famous cables which i love and loathed some of them...well maybe preference play a role here but most of my setup r based on neutral setup so that i can tune it to my perfection and doesnt color too much and overdid the mids tonality

High- now to famous treble which the senheiiser hd650 doesnt have due it's laidback signature, after listening for 2 tracks with Rodrigo Y Gabriel, it has very smooth highs which doesnt overpierce and doesnt give simmering effect to user  itself... the spacing is done correctly when the tamacun and guitars kick in without sounding artificial fake or overdone ....if i have a complain then only it doesnt give as wide as K1000 or Hd800 or as airry as i would prefer it but it's is currently limited by headphone's driver and restriction ..overall a very nicely done upper frequency without giving sibliance - 8.5/10

Mids - most of the senheiiser headphones r famous for their mids and i can attest even the die hard fans who loved vocals and orchestrals will melt away by it's house signature... it is true since most of my friends from Dynamics moved to Electrostatics which is unparalleled in mids and liquid,smooth and wide soundstage but that is other story...the symphony cable made the mids very very smooth (notice the word smooth not lush) lush is meaning overdone in mids tonality and clouding the rest of frequency, imagine when u put too much cream on the coffee or tea, what it will become? it will be cloudly or overly thick and no more coffee taste or tea taste (excuse me, but i think that is easier way to explain if u guys r coffee fans or tea tarik fan rite?)  laugh.gif the lower registry and upper registry is smooth without sacrificing details nor aggressive + effortless making the music flowing through...this was tested through my Beck (Face ) and Moon on the Water...it is neither too thick nor thin but just right texture for it and this is extremely correct tonality balance mid i have heard
this i think it is major improvement on the senheisser itself  thumbup.gif 9/10

Bass - well without bass it will be damm boring and not enough umph as i would call it... here i would like to explain there r 2 type of bass - the midbass and sub bass.... the midbass r most ppl will be drawn into it ( when u turn certain volume up for yur headphones, then the midbass will come out and surrounding u with it) that is midbass which registered the mids and lower mids and that wat we call it dynamic bass (electrostatics have slight less dynamic bass but make it up for their superb bass and refined layering) sub bass is the decays, layering and impact that goes all the way down without any colorations (when coloration happens, the sub bass is clouded and u could hear the bass rolled off, best way to test use a cd track with fast visceral drums beat and listen to double beat itself or piano's depth itself....if the sub bass is clean u will notice and hear the pianos passages and how hard or softly the pianist play)

thanks pals.
for the good and detail review...
i have to agree that govibe ppk indeed can't bring out the texture and layering of the bass of HD650 itself.
it can do bass. but the texture still not up to my personal preference.
however.. paring it with something extrememly neutral and fast, (larvy DA-11). immediately solve the problem.
when are u coming back? we could have that tested. =P

and that day, indeed you heard it with ppk driven.. it is good for overall. but not best sounding HD650 symphonica imho. it still about 40-50% only of the actual performance when properly driven by larvy DA11 itself.

ahaha that like making me getting another hd650 just for cable lol but if it is driven well by Govibe PPK then definitely something very neutral,fast and clean dac like Lavry dac10 or Benchmark or even high end like Chord Electronics 64Bit Pulse Array will make it godlike laugh.gif i have no qualms or even doubt since it is passed my judgement aledi
c when i coming back maybe some1 with a proper setup can indulge me fully with symphony cable
but put it aside bro, i trying hard to make the king of soundstage ahem( hd800/k1000 ) on par with Omega Stax with their luxurious mids and excellent smooth liquid bass resolution....my only weapon against my friends's fanatic omega stax II with Wooaudio WES and Blue Hawaii....still trying to resist their dark power of stax with their crazy Vinyl (ahem) tough battle but my group getting thinner and converted by Dark Jedis sweat.gif

in this case
not really more expensive is good one.
we tested rudistor amp. larvy DA11 direct drive HD650 with symphonica is FAR better than adding the rudistor amp in between.
one of our member with yamamoto also confirmed that when yamamoto is added in the link, it start to degrade the sound. despite improve in some minor section.
northern star DAC in yuheng shop also inhibits similar behavior, imho. too slow for HD650.
in the end. more stuff in the circuit, more coloration. slower the sound. and causing the sound to become worst.
unless your amp / DAC is super transparent, neutral, with no colouration. then it will be a perfect good match to the 650 symphonica.

650 with symphonica cable is not hard to drive. so it doesn't require monster amp to push it.
but it is extremely sensitive to sound signature, tonal balance, sound decay, and colouration in mid/ mid bass.
any slight hint of that in the circuits, will be very obvious when compare it to larvy DA-11 direct push.

that's why until now i still recommend people to try LARVY DA-11 + Symphonica + HD650.
and i can tell that symphonica HD650 will require something very transparent, very fast, and very neutral source to make it perform.
those tube amp, will need to avoid if possible. except several seriously expensive tube amp which doesn't sound slow.

rudistors never been a good amp in my list of amps but in my case most dacs r divide to 2 types
1 is musical favor type and other is neutral or known as recording studio type
however i agree with u that not necessarily expensive is entirely good one but how many could even have chance listen to one of this expensive dacs rite?
they go around guessing and thinking that expensive will be good but like my good old buddy say sweat.gif , if u cant maximize the full potential of it it will sound even worst than yur current setup....i think we know the journey well since as we go higher, a lot of headache and trials and errors u will need to correct the tonality of the setup- as u go higher, the dacs r more cleaner,faster and more accurate and more things u will to correct in between...example, thinner body, lack of warm/analogue, sharper sound, extremely detailed, out of synergy,so forth

but i was surprised when yur PUNY ppk amp can give it very good soundsignature ...despite it's battery eater lol
but for rm900 +1k price range almost = home setup of an amp/dac itself minus the crazy price range of home setup lol
wat to think =u guys cepat grab ler and save yur cash and buy cds better still thumbup.gif

some tube amps may give some coloration but most it's depends on which type of tubes used and how's is the house signature itself...+ cables this and that may add coloration/ or out of synergy/ overdone in body/clouding the mids or the bass is too thick or slow so forth etc
and yes, higher and expensive like transformer coupled tube amp or PTP (Point to Point soldering amp) has less warm and more speed/range (natural soundsignature) compare to traditional tube amp (coloration)...but would anyone go for us6k for something like Yoshino Ear Hp4 tube amp sweat.gif lol (well except for me ler)
and that why i have a transformer coupled tube balanced amp and solid state discrete balanced amp to match and switch around with my setup (both r very heavy looking beasts (22 kg each ler )and required seriously crazy powercords to make them extreme ruthless and fast)
the reason i saying this if u can maximize everything in a way that u can save yur cash/time and no need to go around , then it is a no brainer and thus ending the journey faster but it is too late for me already....i already submerged myself deeply into abyss and it's beyond hope (despair only waiting for me down bottom ) sweat.gif
anyhow put this aside ( when u mau buat my reference high end Symphony Era Signature Hd800 cable for me bro ) lol

Alamak.. more poison to get ppk to pair it with the Symphonica cable, too bad DA-11 is out from my budget [>__<]. Hmm but one thing worry me, PPK battery cannot tahan long?

=.=
i use it to run pk1 when not on HD650 oso..
and if we can find proper USB cord with the power plug at end.
we can charge it with USB of computer.
the input voltage is 5V only..

that RM 1000 is used or new?
and make sure get new driver version, cause it is better.
i got some friend oso sell out their old HD650 to get the silver driver version.
it is much better.

and buy from jaben has 2 years local warranty. and RM 1.9K from jaben is quoted price. always cheaper when u got it in bundle.
go ahead and ask jaben what is the price of HD650 + bundle symphonica / other amp.
sometime i oso surprise by the price. very very cheap imho.

After burning in my IE8s for about 30hrs, the bass went missing (was on lowest bass knob) but mids and highs opened up and sound stage widen considerably. I tuned the bass knob up by two notches everything is beautiful. However these phones sounds bloated especially listening to Olivia Ong's "Love Fool". Hope that'll change soon.

Also, can't wait for my .25 ordnance to arrived. I'm expecting big changes to soundstage. biggrin.gif

My IE8 now sound beautiful after burning in for about 80+hrs. Pairs up with my .25 ordnance amp beautifully. Bass is now tight, and not muddy any more. Highs are crisp but not overly sharp. Had some problems of sibilance previously, but not anymore.

One extremely bad side effect though. It makes my HD202 sound like crap. Aiming for HD650 next year biggrin.gif

Guys, is there anywhere that i can go to for repair on my HD515?

Specifically the padding on the cups. It seemed to have gotten squished and all that.

What are my options?

If u prefer deep bass,i think even hd595 can't satisfied you so much,except you amped for it sweat.gif ,as i know,PX100 can perform great bass as well,but it was open design & portable headphone,it might be can satisfy you?

frequency response only tell you what sound is produce, not the amount. even very slight amount of sound is also counted as response.
hd201 is 20-22kHz.. very light bass.. headphone, big driver
hippo vb is 22-22000kHz.. very deep strong and layered bass, earphone, ultra small driver
most good speakers are 50Hz+.. but can produce ungodly amount of bass...

so... how to understand the headphone technical data(below my hd212pro data)

Nominal impedance 32 Ohm (this for ?)
Frequency response (headphones) 12.....19000 Hz (bigger/higher range produce more heavy bass, am i right?)
THD, total harmonic distortion <0,2 % (this for ?)
Sound pressure level (SPL) (this for ?)

Nominal impedance 32 Ohm (this for ?) - resistance of the headphone.. higher means harder to drive.. i.e, requires source with higher output and volume to sound well and not distort.
Frequency response (headphones) 12.....19000 Hz (bigger/higher range produce more heavy bass, am i right?) no..
THD, total harmonic distortion <0,2 % (this for ?) - how clean sounding the headphone is.. lesser means less noise, but i do not know how this is measure or how it is affected, and where.. techies will have to answer
Sound pressure level (SPL) (this for ?) - this is how much air the driver can move.. affects bass the most

believe in spec sheet all you want.. but i digress...
manufacturer never put all the details in spec sheet..
they always put something to look good. that is called marketing.

Those HD555 upwards audiophile headphones will need an amp. And amping them will present marvelous results. HD212 is more user friendly, simply plug in also sounds nice.

hello everyone, I just bought a PX100 - first edition from ebay. Been using it for 2 weeks, it's getting brighter everyday.
My usage on PX100 usually with my asus U1.
I does gave some testing to the px100 with my NAD amp, it's damn nice.


Hope that I could join the senn club smile.gif.

I am using the headphone in my workplace, wearing a big can will makes me look too nerd.
PX100 is the biggest I can tolerate.
After owning many many cheapo headphone in the past, I am now really satisfied with my first senn.

Just wanna share my thought after listening PX100 with cheapo Fiio E3.
Background, my source is foobar and asus U1. I would never think that E3 could improve SQ as the asus U1 had enough power to pump my PX100.
However I still prefer with the E3 attached.

IMHO, the E3 push lot of main voice far behind the soundstage and only leaving instrument sound at front (when listening to most pop song). Bass definitely coming in faster and stronger. The bass and mid section is now really well controlled.

Ok, have to admit that some high freq is gone, but the clarity is preserved with a comfortable level. So I would not upgrade untill this px100 gave up.

I have tried the E3 with koss porta pro as well, it perform even better.
Finally, I think I know what is real clarity and soundstage means coz my reference is NAD amp -diamond 10.1

It's huge difference for me this because I am wearing headphone most of the time during work (software guy here). Without amp is like pouring music into my brain and fatigue come in very soon.

Actually similar effect from headphone amp could be simulated by dolby headphone technology. But it is not really musical. Ok , headphone amp will be another poison for me now.

Yes, I like to compare audiophile as drug addicts and I always remind myself to wakeup and back to real life smile.gif.

Yeah, my dream headphone. But initial listening, i find that the new driver HD650 is abit brighter and less bassy compared to the older driver. I would prefered it to be slightly less bright and more bassy. hmm.gif

well. i guess they opt for new HD650 with warrenty from jaben.
and they already placed order from jaben grab the HD650 with bundle price with symphonica cable.

more over.
chingwooi's HD650 is already sold long time ago to ComradeZ.
that specific hd650 is from singapore, then grab by my friend theng.
after that. when theng upgrade his setup to sonus faber speaker. he sell off that HD650 through me to chingwooi.
and chingwooi sell to ComradeZ..
and now ComradeZ sells to dunno who.

the unique indiana fortis HD650. lol

well..
it might be true headphone price wise, it is quite competitive.
but factor in there's no bundle price for symphonica cable, and no local warrenty (2 years).....
so..
that's why several of my friend rather wait for jaben.

Quite a good bargain i would say for a almost brand new unit with local warranty. Haha, either getting an amp or the symphonica cable, cant afford both. But logically i should get an amp first right? hmm.gif Played straight out from my ipod nano it sounded good, but now wow'ing to my ears yet biggrin.gif Burn in period plays its part too i guess.

Haha, how i wish i could drive my HD650 to the max. Sadly budget is an issue. I got other things to fund. Now i think of it, its kinda scary to own a HD650. Should have stayed with my philips headphone and be happy with it doh.gif

Jaben should make a lucky draw to give out a symphonica cable, then there is a chance for me to own that cable. *hints yuheng* biggrin.gif tongue.gif

do not underestimate the power of hippo amp muahaha...
it has good mids and bass..
u will really be impressed how hd650 + symphonica can go with just hippo amp.
or try the go-vibe single.. not as powerful as ppk, but still similar.
i would suggest ppk if u can afford it.
or.. diy custom amp..

directly push out from my BOSE discman.
if it involve ipod. then i put in a hippo amp to push it. because i need an amp in between as volume control.

i quite seldom poison ppl with ppk or lavry that i have. unless they had already owned symphonica and i wanna show them the real potential.

ppk seems a good choice for me as i like warm sound signature more. But its abit pricey for an amp only without a DAC for me, on a tight budget sad.gif akabane's amp is over budget for me. Thinking of getting a Maverick D1 as i can use it for my speakers as well. hmm.gif

ampless eh? hmm, i'll try it out at jaben this sunday to see the difference. *hope i dont get poison, my resistance is quite high tongue.gif*
