Have you tried them?

I personally would take the KPH30i over either of these cans, and they're 30 bucks. But that's just me.

At around this price the Hifiman R7DX really puts them to shame IMO.

Athad500x users getting the best of both worlds.

I did. Very happy now.

Are you using virtual surround sound or anything similar in your software?

Are you trying to say the bass is loud?
Sounds like it's just a bad, cheap headset built for looks and not performance.

That's my use case as well. I do gravel so not really any cars but I still like to hear.

There are a lot of athletes out there

As a big fan of open headphones I'm rather excited to see Sony giving this style a try. If they sound better than bone conduction they could be a real winner. Could work for biking?

I just want the very last coil changed. Pointing straight instead of to the side.

That's rather brilliant. I'll definitely try this today. Think a hair dryer is enough for my project,?

My thoughts as well. I'm going to give it a try.

Anyone know if it is possible to reshape the end of this coiled cable without damaging it? The way the coil ends at a 90 degree angle is a bit annoying. Would like to reshape it to continue out straight.

Any thoughts on how to do this? I assume it's the rubber giving it the shape and not the wire?

Tank! Cowboy beebop soundtrack.

Put them over the box for a few days, or maybe consider the 599 (half the clamp for some reason).

But yeah these are clampy.

It can give you an idea, but not tell the whole story.

It can tell you that the treble is a little high, but not necessarily if it's harsh or sharp. It's really just volume levels. If people understand that, it goes a long way.

This.

Charts are ruining headphones. Accuracy is overrated. Preference is king.

Yeah but they're built from the ground up to be that way.

Based on what I've heard from these guys they don't do any acoustic research.

Just like how the shape of a room affects speaker audio.

Good to know. I wonder how they compensated.

It can mess with the audio quality. Can't imagine any serious headphones doing this.

I'm going with fire log.
