Hello. Please recommend me a headphone. My Sennheiser HD 595's plastic components finally came apart after 12 years. The HD6xx has been recommended a lot but not keen on buying from overseas or second hand.
Budget: 1-1.3k Rig: PC/Sound Blaster Xfi Usage: Movie/Gaming/Music Music: Pop, Metal, Rock Type: Any that covers the ear completely and comfortable for long hours Others: Reasonable cable length because my PC is on the floor and something that will last as long as my HD 595.
Thanks!

QUOTE(asdasd @ May 10 2021, 11:36 AM) not interested to try planar magnetic cans? for that amount of money, can get entry level models.. QUOTE(xxboxx @ May 10 2021, 12:41 PM) If not mistaken there are seller that bring in 6XX and sell in Garage Sales Sometimes Sennheiser also will do offer for HD650 and HD600, can get around your budget. Recommend to get now since the company sold their headphone business, won't know what changes will happen in future with new owner. Also worth to try planar headphone, cheapest can get locally will be Hifiman model. I've never tried or heard of planar magnetic till today. Which model of Hifiman should I test out? Sundara?
