DCA! Those would be great, but they need an amp to get the most out of them.

Save your buck, 560s.

I have the S12 and jave been looking at fiio fornsome time. How is the comfort for long term use? Would they be gym friendly?

All mids. Great for radioing your comrades, awful for everything else.

I was able to EQ them and they sound half decent, but still don't have all that much technical ability.

You cant just use someone elses eq settings that they used on a completely different speakers. They used mics to calibrate. They used crossovers to get the tune. You and everyone else need to just eq to taste. Not a curve you cant measure for. With a mic.

Get a HD600 instead , better built, and sounding....

Get the cheap ones from ebay/aliexpress they are exactly the same as the expensive ones from amazon resellers

There's no need to touch anything besides bass when it comes to the HD6x0 series. The mids and treble don't need fixing.

They can also be hooked up in parallel with out too much issues since the paralleled impedance will still be plenty high

Yeah, but… do they fondle your balls?

used lcd 2C, and emu teak (new) are easily the best you can find for that kind of money. If you’re not into buying used I wouldn’t hesitate with headphones like these.

Are these from an electric chair ?

I just replaced those itchy velour pads with lambskin leather from ZMF. I’m also ordering their Suede material.

Thanks I didn't even think of going used. Great idea.

I got HD800s because its the least clampy and most comfortable. I wear these for 16 hours a day as a professional competitive gamer. Sound positioning is accurate and clear. I can hear the enemy before they hear me.

I’d consider something like a Dan Clark Aeon Closed, a used pair of Focal Elegia’s and something like a Sennheiser HD 600/650

And how do they sound?

AD2000x, LCD-1 etc?

Why buy cheaper high impedance cans and cheap stacks to power them when you could put that $ into more expensive low impedance cans that can run off any source and sound better.

I would post a thread asking this but my account is too new.

(also no offense to OP, I'm sure your setup sound wicked)

Ah, I love my 558. They were the first nice headphones I ever bought, and I've had them for about 7 years now. I still listen to them all the time. I'm sorry yours broke, but I'm glad you're digging the 6XX with the stack.

Nice.This combo sounds better thany any premium TWS in the market. I have been using the timeless and utws3 for the past year.

"thank you"

As you guys can see in the picture, for me it's the Hexa (crazy tech for it's price), and coming in second would be the Quarks DSP from Moondrop. Crazy year for IEMs. Felt like the new set that came out last month was outdated the very next. Hope this healthy competition continues - I'm personally looking forward to Planars reaching their peaks in 2023! More on this here
