this mean need amp for 668B?
direct cucuk at USB dac system volume only need put 20% oledi loud liao

It might be the wires between the driver and the interconnect problem. You can fix it by removing it then resolder the end of your existing cable straight to your headphone (hence become nondetachable) or you can buy a new 3.5mm female to female and install it in.

Check your cable, or it might be your driver. HD668B should sounds fine w/o any amp.
I can just plug it in my clip+/cowon with normal listening level.

i know but dont have the tool that why ask here if anybody provide such services...

Why is HD681 evo cheaper than HD661? I own a tissue padded red HD661 and would wanna know how it fares.

Its disappointing to see this thread inactive, btw can you guys help me find onw of hese screws? lost mine

everybody is busy playing with their superluxes

btw, u oredy try d-i-y? myb u can just use normal screw..

dont know much..

After 1 year plus, my HD681 right side lost sound... at first after a few adjustment or knocks ok, but now no sound at all.

This headphone has been dropped countless times from my table. Already broken the left and right side and glue back. A real workhorse. Now gonna open it up and try to fix the problem, most likely loose connection and need to re-solder. Hope I can fix it, I really love it.

Managed to find the problem to my HD681 losing sound on 1 side of the headphone.

Didn't know how to open so I broke the side panel instead. Actually the sides can be removed to reveal a small screw so can un-screw the cap off. Oh well, nothing super glue cannot help.




After a quick solder and 3 burnt fingers later.






Now working like before.

I am happy that you got your 681 fixed Will be a waste otherwise

Just bought a pair of HD660. Was going to buy Grado SR225i but after reading review on Headfonia, i went with a pair of HD660 instead. To my surprise, this headphone sounds really good, especially for fast paced music. When pairing with my JDS Labs ODAC+O2 combo, it has tight bass, sweet mids, and more forgiving trebles than my ATH-M50. Even though instrument separation is not as great as my ATH-M50, but it sounds really fun and lively. I am sure it will sound even better after fully burnt in.

But man, the ear pad sucks big time (can't really complain due to its cheap price and amazing sound quality). Gonna change to third party velour pad soon.

just received my Superlux HD660 with the replacement velour pads from trio, great seller although sometimes slow with reply. do not worry, he's not running away with your , he's just busy getting more stocks for u.

im not a sensitive listener and can't differentiate those technical terms audiophile equipments. so im writing this based on my impression of the hd660.

the hd660 really looks exactly like the Beyerdynamics DT770 Pro !! The cans are made from plastic and the headbands are constructed from a kind of metal (steel? ) so that kinda makes the overall build quality feels solid. about the sound (for a normal user), the bass is OK and the mids are warm and sweet but the treble is slightly too aggressive for me. the vocal clarity is impressive on this headphone. noise isolation is also great thanks to the closed-cup design. the non-detachable coiled cable is too short. and the stock pleather earpad is the biggest deal breaker, it is very uncomfortable like my old "gaming" headset. immediately changed them to the softer velour pads after 5 minutes of testing.

after close to a week of testing and a weekend with whole day of movie+gaming on the hd660, im getting used to the slightly unforgiving treble. but i also noticed that the clamping force of the hd660 is really strong, even with the soft velour pads. therefore, any new buyers please do yourself a favor and get it together with the velour pads. also i suggest to try to teach some manners into the headband using 3 dictionaries like this



PROS:
- overall solid build quality
- comes with headphone case
- good bass and mids
- vocal clarity is impressive
- very affordable price
- compatible with DT770 headband cushion and earpads

CONS:
- cable is too short and non-detachable
- stock pleather pads are uncomfortable
- treble is too aggressive
- clamping force really strong

Dun you feel that the sound quality changes after replacing the stock pad? I have tried velour pad from trio also, but i find it less bassy and the mid is recessed if compared to the stock pad.

i didnt really try out the sound in the pleather pads because they are too uncomfortable. in the velour pads the HD660 still sound very good to me. but i guess there is a slight difference because of the material in the velour pads that dampens the bass

Yeah, the bass is markedly reduced if paired with the velour pad. I prefer the original pad albeit it's super uncomfortable

u guys already tried tissue mod?

i used that mod on stock pad, and its quite comfortable to me

pictorial pls...... my imagination is bad

here it is



u can use face tissue which is soft to fold and can improve the pad cushion feel.

u also have options whether to put tissue all round below the pad or just half round.

full tissue mod will give u better comfort plus slight bass improvement.

the quality even better after fully burn-in.

u mcgyver the shit out of the earpads!! but what i dont really like about the pleather pads is that they surface is too stiff, nothing with the cushion inside wor..

anyhow, how long did it take to fully burn in n how u do it? i just kept it playing some random playlist whenever im not using...
