haiz... b = balance which mean bass not too strong, treble not too weak just enough
rich bass is without any alphabet for Example hd681,hd662

ah... eh! lol? i messed up the alphabets.. dang...

just did some research, the hd330 might have a bit of problems for me as it is kinda hard to drive it from a iphone.

an amp then..

AFAIK it's not rich bass, it's deep bass, or some would say B is for balanced. The 381 series best describes this where the 381 have rich bass, and its freq response is similar to what you suggested, whereas 381B have a nearly flat low freq.

@Invalid
I'm with MrJinggles on the 668B, though lacking in bass for me is more towards lacking in amount, where even a cheap Fiio E3 amp could fix.

fiio e11 all the way. my e5 will pairing with soundmagic pl30, nice combo.

Are you sure you're in the right thread?

'so... verdict : hd668b - suitable for my needs? (i posted it a few posts before this)

i might just order it from trio soon

AND ALSO. i read somewhere say they change the pad to the akg k240 ones. the velour pads (according to http://www.soundtrackforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=257)

anyone tried it before? how did it work?

There was a bulk thread in the trade section for the pads: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1833995&hl=

I'm not sure what their current status is. You could PM the TS and ask.

does it really help the 668b alot or just a little?

PM the TS of the link I provided. Ask him if any of them got their velour pads then ask for their opinion. There's a link to Head-Fi provided in that thread as well, look it up.

well, i'd try pairing my Sansa Clip+ with HD381 (B & F), and i noticed that Clip+ couldnt drive it well, frankly not at satisfying level, while its stock earphone give out more brighter sounds

now i need Fiio E5

Dunno really. Most of us here were just going to get one try them for ourselves. Should really help the comfortableness of the 668B, I think.

Btw, HD669 seems like the better choice if you're willing to spend an extra ~RM30 or so. So far all that tested the 669 says that it's better than 668B..

@MrJinggles
Love your new superlux sigs. Perhaps you can make one for future 669 users as well.

Thanks! Here's one more sig for future 669 owners!

HD669

My hd660 just came in.
It have more bass n mids are more forward compared to the 668b.
Burning them in still. But the pads are so much softer n better compared to the 668b

I envy you so much, now still sweating with the stock 668b pads

HD668B user reporting in. Cool design + great audio

Welcome to the club of music lovers with tight budget!

I think TS should update the user list now.

May be "Dato Trio" quiet buzy lately lol

Thank you.
We are "Pengguna Bijak" not to spend more $$$ to crappy overpriced stuffs.

@zack

Yes sangat setuju...... We should be pengguna bijak, spend our money wisely.

Thanks to superlux for produce high quality audio stuff with low price tag.

I hope they keep produce more headphile stuff like more quality headphone amp.
