Anything maybe 50 or less? lol

I had a pair of headphones like 5 years ago that I paid ~30 dollars for... best headphones I ever owned. I think they were Sades or something. Amazing bass, couldn't hear shit around me. lol

Ofc it was probably some chinese offbrand but man it felt good. Maybe I'll try to find them again. My pair lasted like 2 years then the wires got all fucked up.


Don't know anything around 50 that can get even close to hd598 sound or anything that I would consider worth to buy that is closed back. Fisher clones would be your best bet at around 80, Rikuo should remember the brand/model for them.

Yeah I just pretty much want them for when I am flying or in transit. I'd use them with my computer sometimes if my wife is being loud, but once we buy our house I don't have to worry about that. lol

Nice!

Always loved the looks of the hd800's

LMk what you think of them.

What are you going to use to drive them?


Yeah me too :) I'll let you know what I think of them when I've had them for a while for sure.

My chain is gonna be foobar2000 > Supra USB > Schiit Gungnir Multibit > Supra XLR > Cavalli Liquid Carbon > HD800S/HD650.

My weak link in the chain currently is my amplifier and USB so that's what I'm gonna upgrade next. Not sure when it will happen though.

USB is digital, Getting a more expensive USB cable does nothing to help. The way digital works, It either gives signal or it doesn't, There is no distortion.
