      Well the STAX LP700s, Audeze LCD-X/3 , Focal Elear (and many others) sound MUCH better than a pair of HD650s, like literally two different worlds. I haven't heard the Sennheiser Orpheus before, but if they truly surpass headphones like Focal Utopia, Audeze LCD-4 and STAX SR-009 (all $4-5000 cans) then I think they're worth every penny to someone who makes $50,000 a day (many people do)

      @MrAhuraMazda 4 роки тому +22

      Doesnt matter. Great headphones would make your mp3s sound amazing too. Headphones dont make you able to hear the difference between MP3 and lossless. Thats snake oil. The human ear cant hear the "lost" part of lossless, its humanly impossible to hesr what mp3s compress. Nevertheless countless ABX tests show even with the best equipment, people cant tell the difference either. The whole FLAC thing is all snakeoil.
      The ABX tests are done with 256kbps (itunes) and not 128kbps, admittedly 128 is a little worse, but even that's scientifically questionable. Great headphones and amps like this will only make 128 mp3s sound better. Thats it. Dont buy the lossless hype, theres no science behind it. ALL the science, from tests to actually human ability to hear, prove MP3s are indistinguishable. What audiophiles "hear" is selection bias.

Somse rich guy will buy these things, just cuz, and play spotify through them with high quality streaming turned 'off'...

    And in this comment section, we have everyone who thinks that just because it's headphones, it's not worth $50k. Which is probably right. But saying that you could buy a car or a house doesn't really justify it.
    Chances are, if you're buying these things, the last thing you're worrying about is getting a new car or trying to afford a house.

    The thing about going up to 100000Hz is a little bit misleading, because everyone always goes 'well we can only hear up to 20khz' so whats the point? A frequency respone much outside that of human hearing, means the response curve for the portion of sound that we can hear is much flatter and less distorted.

      Like any bottle of wine worth over 10 grand, you don't buy it for that price because it's that good. You buy it for the experience of consuming some of the most exclusive things the world has to offer.

      +Vinter I thought the same thing... I mean, they could've done it in full screen browser, a screen region or just cropped it in post.. but nope

      J0rdhardwell To be fair they don't get much sleep nor time to do this... it might've been a slip. Haha, get it? slip!

      +Vinter I never understood why they don't produce these spots somewhat professional BEFORE they even fly down there and then just cut them in in the beginning?! I mean it can't be that hard

      tonTeufel Because they're humans of course! After a human being does a few mistakes, if he's somewhat smart, he won't do it again. This is one of those mistakes.

      +Vinter well it isn't the first time that they go to a show where there's a sponsor spot in every video ^^ you might think by now they kinda learned how to do them in a smart manner.

    Yeah, I'll stick to my 4$ headphones...

      Yeah I know but for some reason every pair of 20$ headphones dies on me within months of purchase, these have lasted almost 2 years now.

      I wish I had that kind of money to spend on headphones.

      +Hendlton Get the Sennhesier HD 598's when they are on sale for 100 bucks. Can't go wrong there.
      It's just like anything else. You get what you pay for.

    I don't care how good they sound, the only people buying them are the ones who want to brag about how rich they are that they spent 50 grand on HEADPHONES.

      They buy the headphones open the case, and them listen to music for 2 hours. They then get up to go to the bathroom and trip over the headphone cable... The cable rips out of one of the headphones. I then take a sip of my tea and say, "Well... You fucked up when you bought those headphones. Now you fucked up in not only wasting $50,000, but you also broke them and will never get your money back."
