Overrated: - Hifiman Sundara. Muddy bass compared to DT 1770 Pro / DT 1990 Pro / HD 800S / HD 660S. - Sony WH-1000XM4 / WH-1000XM3. Too boomy without EQ, narrow soundstage. Frequency response on wired connection is <censored>. Underrated: - Beyerdynamic DT 1990 Pro. Best bass between open...

HD560S are closer to HD650 by sound signature and have a slightly wider soundstage compared to HD660S: https://crinacle.com/graphs/headphones/graphtool/?share=IEF_Neutral_Target,HD560S,HD650_S2_(2020)_(fresh_pads)...

I hate HD660s for instrumental and classical music without EQ. They have slightly recessed lows and highs in comparison to HD650: https://crinacle.com/graphs/headphones/graphtool/?share=IEF_Neutral_Target,HD660S,HD650_S2_(2020)_(fresh_pads) But they are amazing for vocal, Youtube, Twitch...

ANC always produces a white noise on XM4 if ANC enabled.

Upgraded WH-1000XM3 -> WH-1000XM4 recently. Cons: - Built-in equalizer of both WH-1000XM4 / WH-1000XM3 doesn't work when the headphones are connected by cable. They are very boomy. - Awful frequency response (but better than on WH-1000XM3), unusable on mid / high volume. - Less detailed...

Hi I have both Zorloo Ztella MQA and Ztella non-MQA. I use all of them with Windows 10 PC (WASAPI only) and don't hear any significant differences in sound quality between them. But I have an annoying problem with both Ztella MQA and non-MQA constantly connected to the PC. PROBLEM: both...

I have received two MEIZU Hifi Pro. Awesome device. I like it more than Hidizs S8 (Tempotec Sonata HD Pro) / Zorloo Ztella MQA / Zorloo Ztella because I have problems with them in Windows 10.

I have annoying clicks / pops on tracks switching (WASAPI) with default usbaudio2 driver. They are absent when Tempotec driver is used.

They are the same. The difference is in additional cable only.

WARNING! Don't upgrade the firmware to V3.0 due to the bug with Windows 10 drivers (see above) What driver do you use with V3.0 (Provider / Date / Version / Signer)?

Zarniwoop, thank you! Latest windows driver works with V1.0 firmware without the BSOD on volume changing (but it should be installed manually as MiloTheFirst wrote). Annoying clicks on tracks switching are gone too compared to default usbaudio2 driver. Is there any firmware between V1.0 (A)...

Latest version of driver (2020-04-30 mtime in archive): http://www.tempotec.com.cn/download/SONATA_HD_DRIVER.zip Hidizs provides older version (2018-04-19 mtime in archive) https://www.hidizs.net/apps/help-center#!hc-s8-driver

Hi I also have BSOD with V3.0 firmware (Sonata HD Pro) and official driver (http://www.tempotec.com.cn/download/SONATA_HD_DRIVER.zip) on volume change using volume mixer in Windows 10. I want to downgrade firmware to V1.0 but I can't find it. http://www.tempotec.com.cn/download/SONATA HD...

Last three days my DX3 Pro is dead silent. Nothing changed in my setup. I hate this electrical magic.

There are no downsides.
