    I have Meze's 99 and Liric. I have been eyeing up a Herman Miller Eames chair set (edit, not so much to realise they don't have the rights to Eames chairs in Europe!). I have also owned fragile Italian cars (one Alfa had 2 engines, three wiring looms and a full suspension replacement).
    I also have the LCD-X and fulfill the strong neck, gamer and sci-fi parts. And I only got that because I couldn't think of any other progression up from a Sennheiser HD600, but still maintaining that general reference/"accurate" sound. (Edit: but with a touch more bass/sub-bass)

    The Audio Technica bit is so spot on.
    I really do care about it lasting forever, since I have other hobbies, which i am -addicted to- interested in. Though, I care if it sounds good or not. Since I listen to pretty much all genres of music, I prefer neutral/balanced sound. But I have a feeling that I will not be able to tell a difference between good and decent headphones.
    I have used Sony MDR-XB950AP, ATH M50X, Tin HiFi T4, Echobox Audio Finder X1 and some bad stuff like A4Tech, Razer, etc. Between all of them, Sony and gaming abominations are bad.

    • @SianaGearz
      @SianaGearz Рік тому +3

      Well you can tell the difference between ALL headphones since they have a very distinct character. Good speakers almost don't have a character, if you closed your eyes, you'd have a hard time, you can still tell but it's hard. Headphones are all quite different. So don't sell yourself short by suggesting that you might not tell the difference, just go ahead and try it.
      As to AT in my opinion M50x is almost an abomination, like most of it is good, then there's a painful sibilant peak and after 12k there's NOTHING. I think M40x is actually great though.

    • @guessit5036
      @guessit5036 11 місяців тому

      @@SianaGearz When I was choosing my first decent pair of headphones, I read a lot of reviews (ZeosPantera, Amazon, Reddit and etc.) about M50x and M40x. In the end, I chose M40x. The only thing that changed my mind was the fact that I was building an all white PC build. Because of that, I went for M50x, since some people said that the difference is not so marginal between M50x and M40x.
      Since I always listen to music at low dB, the bright part of M50x does not bother me at all. Now that I think about it, I think that I actually prefer for a slightly bright sound signature, so I can decipher if the song is bad by design or if it is that good.

    • @DeagledSmeagol

      I've been using the same pair of ATH-M50's as my only headphones for the last ~10-ish years. I recently got an new pair (Hifiman Sundara) and the difference is definitely appreciable. The sound signature feels rather similar between the two, everything is just cleaner and wider. I'm sure someone somewhere will have issue with me making that comparison, but due to some hearing damage the finer points of tuning and technicality get a bit lost on me anyway.
      I say this as I was in the same camp as you, not sure if I'd be able to appreciate a fancier set of cans, but after making the jump I'm wondering why I didn't do it sooner lol.
      I gotta give it to the M50's though! They still work like the day I bought them, the headband is just falling apart and keeps leaving black flecks of pleather is my hair. Been through 3 sets of ear cups and like 5 cables, but they just keep on working.

    I love my super lightweight mouse when I'm gaming. I love my Audeze Maxwell headphones when I produce music and watching Dune part one with dolby atmos activated was basically the highlight of the year for me. This is proof that I picked the right headphones 😂

    My endgame headphones are indeed LCD-X (2021), I don`t produce music but I have over 12,000 songs in the house genre from the last decade. Almost spot on!

    You nailed me spot on. I have a 99 Noir and a Maxwell that I daily drive. I love the industrial design of the Bauhaus era though the 50/60's, though a large part of that is due to the fact that I am in architecture. And yes, Charles and Ray Eames are phenomenal designers and I wish their chairs weren't so goddamn expensive! As far as the other half, I'm also a gamer with a love of bass, warmer, or v-shaped sound signature. Oh and I do have a strong neck.

    This video was amazing, KPH30i for life !!!! plus I am shopping for a DCA set. Sennheiser was spot on, I only have the 58x, which got all the bass the 600 was missing. I am wondering if my dislike for iPhones is related to my indifference toward the Hifman ( I own the 400se ).

    Actually Grados are the headphones which are the most easy to mod since you can fit any aftermarket ear pads onto them by drawing cardboard donuts to slip over the cups as a adapter for any size or shaped pad. The metal headband can fit any head as long as your not opposed to hand fitting and bending them like they are suppose to be used. With different aftermarket ear pads you literally get to tune the sound stage to what ever you want and get exactly the comfort you want. Only thing missing is just an option for detachable cables.

    "Audio-Technica. You want something that'll last forever, but don't really care of it sounds that good" *headband padding flakes off after 18 months*
    My 2007-vintage Beyerdynamic DT 770s were actually fairly warm, relaxed, and easy to listen to for hours on end. I had no idea what people were talking about with the treble on these until I foolishly sold mine and replaced them with a new set soon after. Ow, my freakin' ears. I need EQ to listen to them for more than a minute now.
    My first "real" pair of headphones was a set of Koss UR20s I bought three days before a deployment to the Middle East in 2003 that I used in conjunction with a cheap MP3 CD-RW player. They cost $35 at Best Buy then and are $20 on Amazon now. I have no idea what that makes me.

    I love my Beyerdynamic dt177x. I'm a violinist, secretly love tastefully elevated bass, and often wear custom earplugs because I fear hearing loss, primarily due to my instrument. Sibilance is like salt, you keep going until it’s almost too much and that’s the perfect amount (kidding about Sibilance, it literally makes my ears bleed). I tried removing the inner padding that massdrop added to the 177x go and my head almost exploded.
