Is the recabled HD650 burned in and ready for audition?

Hehe..Now I'm excited to test it. Will go to Jaben and test the recabled HD650. Lucky now no money if not wallet will burn again after that trip.

Anyone here knows how to safely remove the driver from the HD650? I bought a used HD650 but the left grill a bit dented in. Thought of pushing in back out. thx

Directly?

edit : Ok done!! thanks a lot!!! didn't know that easy...

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

Why they give Senn headphone holder and pouch for the lower end version but not for the higher end HD650 T_T

Hey guys, my HD650 left cable is damaged as I can't hear any sound coming (confirm cable issue because I switched sides and it works back)

Anyone know any place in Klang valley that sell replacement cable? A bit lazy wait the distro send to service centre.

Oh that cheap? I had some shop in Summit change the connector for both side. Paid RM85 for the change.

For me the HD600/HD650 is one of the worst headphone to begin the audiophile headphone journey. Too many times I've seen aspiring head fi splurge almost RM1.7k for the HD650 only to be disappointed when plugged into their Samsung/iPhone. Heck one time my brother borrowed my HD650 only and plug into his pc audio out only to find that a sub RM1k Sony headphone sounded better than the HD650.

The HD6xx was created for hi fi speaker users who wants discrete listening when needed(hence the super long cable of the HD650) Most Pre amps and integrated amps comes with their own amplified headphone output,so for these audiophiles getting the headphones is sufficient,as they already have the accessories to power these demanding headphones.

For newbies without existing amplifiers,they would at least need to fork out an additional RM500 at least to get even a decent drive out of the HD6XX,which puts the effective cost of owning a HD650 to at least RM2.2k(or even RM3k if you're looking for cable upgrades)
