owner of hd660 here. hi guys

wah u still modding urs till now ah
waycome

ayo.. i thought somethings wrong with the hd660. bass distortion
seems like the front panel is faulty

front panel? u mean of your desktop?
in that case better use behind one or direct to the sound card
btw HD660 need to drive using better source i think as it has higher impedance, 150Ohm. Only then you can get better results

yup my dekstop.
higher impedance.. hmm I'm only using it for my PC

i chose 660 only because of the outside noise isolation

After browsing few websites about bass distortion/clipping now I seem to know what my problem was

Any owners of HD330 would like to comment on the sound?
Nevermind...I think the 668B is for me. Just a question of when I'm ready.

Bro, they say that the HD330 and HD660 is the same, it's just that the HD330 is semi-open while HD660 is closed
668B

They look (at least in paper) that they would suit my soon to come HM-601.

Then again, I would have to consider the RE0 into my budget. That could hurt my chances of getting the 668B.

re0 as in headdirect re0?

Yes, or Hifiman RE0.
But it is twice as expensive, but would pair very well with the 601, as they are from the same company, and the 601's treble roll-off would mean a bright sounding output would suit it quite well.

Because of the price tag, I'm more and more inclined towards the 668B, but because the RE0 is an IEM, it appeals to me more on that front.

For now, I'm waiting for my Radius DDM which is being sent for warranty, and my HM-601 from Jaben. The DDM 'should' sound very dark as it too has a bit of a treble roll off. So right now searching for a headphone or IEM(preferably IEM) that is a bit brighter and airier than the DDM.

Also buying a C30, which should arrive in around 2 weeks. Planning on using that as my ultra-portable rig, for jogging and stuff. So and IEM would be great, but I really really really really really would like to know what a good headphone sound like.

So much going on for me this year.

wow radius DDM.. that one sounded pretty on par with ie8 if im not mistaken (only heard them for a few minutes and they're not burned in)

well..its not really hard to own a 668b because of its price tag but as for RE0.. i dont know :/ some reason i dont really like it eventhough im a detail lover (i felt the highs doesnt sustain long enough.. it disappears a little to quick) i ended up getting a shroom EB (which i find much more natural sounding) while waiting for ETY's ER4S to arrive

The bass on that thing is the best I've heard so far. Plus, organic instruments and male vocals sound oh so sweet.

I've already PM'ed trio regarding the 668B. We'll see how the DDM fairs with the 601 first. If I feel they are way too dark and the treble makes me feel wanting to put my hands in the music and pull them out, then the 668B will have the green light.

No lah, baru started some simple tweaking... tangan gatal mah. I think I hear some reverb, so I thought some heavy handed blu-tac could solve the issue. LOL!
lots of Blu-tac = zero bass... don't try this at home, kids.

Previously I modded 668B... very satisfied with the results. Dah entah berapa bulan dah, I still have not gotten the AKG k240's velour pads.

Where can we get the AKG velour pads?

bought myself a 681. Which portable model will be the best? but i dont like iem. Planning to get next month...

ah ic, yeah i love blu-tack, its like my duct tape
just wish it can tack speakers to walls hahaha
too bad can't hold heavy stuffs
btw, besides blu tack any other material we can use which can hold really really heavy stuff and can take off when we don't need them?

Hi Everyone, out of curiosity, i tried the 688b and all 3 earphones just now
