@ultrabike $510. A lot for HD600s! @Cspirou I've heard things about driver matching and/or slightly better materials. Can't say listening makes...
Picked up an HD580 Jubilee on eBay. First impression: HD600 with a slightly better look.
Hit the Schiitr last weekend! IMO: Asgard2 is A+ with planars, maybe > Jotunheim. Loved Mjolnr2/Gungnir Multibit; surprised it didn't pale vs Rag/Yggdrasil.
Picked up an AKG Sextett (LP) out of curiosity. Not bad for 70s cans! Familiar sound; K240M were my first decent headphones.
The reviews I've seen made me think it probably vastly outperforms for its price. I like the idea of giving planars a solid shot without breaking...

Comparing HD 6XX to my trusty HD 600 (mostly on Bifrost Multibit -> Valhalla 2). HD 600 highs are hard to give up, but maybe I'll warm up to HD 6XX...

I had a pretty good customer support experience with my Andromedas worth commenting on here. The right earphone tip piece came off in my hand when...
My Andromeda showed up today. I'm upgrading from the SE535se. Initial impression, out of my iPhone 6, was HOLY HELL WOW. I didn't even need to go...
They are closer. I got a Modi 2U 4490 and compared. Impressions here:...
Got myself a new Modi 2U 4490 to add to my ongoing DAC comparisons. Comparing to the older Modi 2U 4396, I hear what I've come to think of as the...
