Otavio7the HD599 is inferior and sounds grainy in comparison.

Otavio7in what world do they have 'same' drivers? how can 'same' drivers have different impedance?

DenonFanboyhow do you know what 58X sounds like?

WiHHi_Z3_PuXMost amplifiers, which are in a normal price range, add noise to anything less than 250 ohms ... These headphones will be horrible for classics. They are not audiophile! And also are ... the price under 100$ ... 36m. membrane has quicker amortization ... and low resistance ... Only if they replace the nasty plastic spider with a solid-dark wood can they grab me: - 0.1 $ upgrade! Wood spider will create a background acoustic veil and really will audiophile!

WiHHi_Z3_PuXI have a hd6xx and a hd598 so I kind of have an idea where these place between the 2.

Otavio7The HD58X and the new HD660 share some of the same tech. Keep that in mind

Megazine660s is twice as precise if we talk about THD and 12-38Khz -10db is a bit better than a amateur sound if we twist around audiophile.

Otavio7wtf. any decent amp has impedance of <= 10Ohm. And 10 is fine for any headphones over 80Ohm according to nwavguy. and most amps are < 1 Ohm.
and lots of great audiophile/studio headphones have low-ish impedance i.e. AKG K701, 702, 712, 240, Beyerdynamic DT770 80Ohm from the top of my head.
I also have Sennheiser HD595 (50Ohm) and 6XX, sure 6XX is better, but it's not like 595 is trash either.

it's wrong to assume all low impedance headphones are bad.

WiHHi_Z3_PuXWhat is the difference between appoggio and coloratura ? Why acoustics is so important ... If you change the spider with a tree, a hard dark tree like an African mahogany ... I would prefer a dark red hardwood ... ... when there is "electromagnetism" no need of expensive wood ... I would use highly diluted pine-boric turpentine to treat the tree ... only cheap things! Аlso the amplitude of the high frequencies I would have inserted into the canon 24db he big problem is that it will outperform the Orpheus edition in many ways ... And you can safely add a caption PRO to Sennheiser HD58X !

WiHHi_Z3_PuXI want to get the brain to refine sounds and acoustics ... in cheap way! ... if there is a second drop.

Otavio7Yeah sure, as a lawyer and banker in Canada I will stay out of danger, no loans, no US schools, thanks for your recommendations. Speaking of spam, I must admit that you have proved to show us high talents. I’m not the only one on this board who had not the slightest idea what you were (and still that you are) talking about. Continue on my friend, you are of great help to all of us on this board. I’m glad that spam stupidity still doesn’t kill anyone. Best regards.
