Sennheiser HD 650 Headphones


Just got my Sennheiser HD 650 Headphones in the mail from AudioGon Seller "Glicco". What a excellent set of headphones. Great sound and great comfort.
All the time and money I have spent with my hi-fi with speaker placement, room treatment etc just trying to get this kind of sound. I should have done this along time ago. Anybody else have great headphones they really like?

Have the 650's as well. Awesome. I too enjoy them more than my speakers. I often put the kids to bed, slap them on and get lost in the music for hours. I use the stock cables and listen thru a Benchmark DAC - bliss. Might try the AKG's though just in case. Hope I'm not ruining my hearing in the process.
The new Zu Mobius cable for the Senn 650s is thin,
flexible, and sounds great.
We should all send our condolances to head-fi.org,
which has been laid low by a system crash. A post-mortem
of the problem has been posted at its website: http://www.head-fi.org/
I listened to the HD650s BRIEFLY at the 2007 RMAF and compared them to the HD600s, which I just sold on consignment. I thought that the 650s were significantly better. Those and the AKG 701s may be a consideration in the future.*
*Right now I'm so spoiled by the mains that I just ditched a Stax SRM T1 driver unit with both original Lambda Signature and 404 equivalent earspeakers.
