Just reviewed the Beyerdynamic DT 700 PRO X (€ 250.-) for those that are interested in an improved DT770 with replaceable cable and better pads.
Read, very interesting, very correct price-priced cap.Just reviewed the Beyerdynamic DT 700 PRO X (€ 250.-) for those that are interested in an improved DT770 with replaceable cable and better pads.
How do you feel about these in comparison to HM5? Slightly different price bracket but interested in your thoughts of where the HM5 sits in the grand scheme of things.Just reviewed the Beyerdynamic DT 700 PRO X (€ 250.-) for those that are interested in an improved DT770 with replaceable cable and better pads.
I won't bother you too much more on this topic, but I did have just one last question regarding the HM5s:The HM5 is 'leaner' and 'clearer/more forward' sounding in direct comparison.
AA Hi-X60 build quality will be better... the sound... haven't seen measurements yet.
The Austrian Audio can NOT be used on balanced amplifiers. No idea why most manufacturers don't simply take balanced operation into consideration when designing the cable enty.

Do you know I can’t use in-ears? I have a very small ear hole and I don't get into any models I've tried so far, the latest TinHiFi model.@Metronomy, I was recently looking for closed headphones.
Some criterions I had: 1) great sound 2) great comfort 3) very little sound leakage 4) made by a manufacturer which is great regarding replacement parts 5) durabilility.
Confer for instance Rtings regarding sound leakage measurements.
Even though my budget was high (ca $ 2500), I found it difficult to find such a product.
I ended up buying the in-ear headphones Sennheiser IE 300 costing $ 299.95 (that is they are OK regarding your budget).
They are fulfilling all my criterions, and the value for money is amazing.
Note that regarding comfort, they are much better than the usual headphones because of the adjustable flexible ear hooks and the great comfort of the earplugs themselves.
Hi! I have the Aeon Closed X. How does this OLLO compare to Aeon?Just tested the OLLO Audio S4R (1.1).
A bit more expensive than DT700 PRO X but in a different league.
Thanks. Regarding the microphony. Isn´t the OLLO-cable possible to exchange for something different? (I understand micrphony it is not just about the cable, but the cable is in my experince often during use the most unavoidible to create microphony.) I am a bit tempted as you wrote on your website it reminds of SH600 etc.. I like the idea it has spareparts and seems to be made to last.haven't had these side by side.
AEON is very insensitive and low impedance (12ohm), OLLO is very sensitive and 32ohm.
I think comfort and room for earpads and microphony is better on AEON.
AEON is intended for music enjoyment side, OLLO is for the production side.
When it comes to a headphone to be used outside the home - when I'm on the go, I think noise cancellation is absolutely necessary. I use a pair of Sennheiser Momentum 3 which can be used either wirelessly or wired. Are there fairly cheap closed-back headphones that sound better? Absolutely. But for me, protecting my hearing is priority one. The advantage of Momentum and other similar headphones is that you can play at a fairly low level without outside noise taking over. And the Momentum 3 actually sounds really good, but is not a typically neutral headphone.Good morning, I would need a closed headphone to use on the go, possibly foldable, fairly neutral sound signature, with good bass. I have already discarded a VModa 100. Budget 300 euros/dollars because I don't like the sound. I currently use an oppo pm3. What do you guys recommend?
Thanks
