Anything in the works for the next couple of months? I'm living in Minnesota temporarily, so I'm interested if anything might be happening

I would like a Susvara because I am a huge fan of high quality headphones, and the Susvara seems to be one of the best out there.

K7XX will be a downgrade from HD650.

Omega stand will ruin the headphone. It will stretch out the elastics for the headband and compress the pads (this is true for any headphone, by the way, that an Omega stand will compress the pads and if it has a suspension headband, will stretch that out).

I definitely will try my best to be there! No car, so I have to Uber, but I will definitely try to be there, though my gear ain't so special.

Sennheiser HD598 should do the trick.

These are a wireless headphone, so using a DAC would do absolutely nothing.

The 812 has a really bad impulse response which would imply ringing in the treble, which according to reviews shows itself as being ear piercing.

Does the 872 have the same ringing issues that the 812 has? There really hasn't been much released about this headphone, and it seems extremely interesting.

X00 isn't closed, remember that. Isolates barely more than an open can.

Nah. For me, the difference is easy to hear, though admittedly very subtle. The 600 is a bit more shouty in the upper mids and has a bit more treble sparkle, while the 650 is much more smoothed out in that region (and to my ears, more neutral, though still not exactly neutral) and has a bigger...

K712 is much better than the 650 with regards to soundstage. Every time I want to game, I find myself reaching for the AKG over the Senn.

ANC works best for droning/humming noises, such as a plane engine or the ambient noise in a big city. Your TV/laptop is going to be playing sounds that are somewhat transient (fast and only occurring once) so ANC wouldn't be able to cancel them effectively.

Not a fan personally. I have both the K712 and the HD650, and what I like about the K712 is that it has more treble sparkle than the 650, so when I want that little extra brightness, I have get it with the AKG. The problem is that the Asg2 is a warm and hazy amp and it kills any of the bite the...

Got mine a couple weeks ago, no creaking whatsoever.
