Hey. I just won an auction for a momentum cable thats well below the cost, but when i bid on it, i was under the (wrong) impression it would fit my HD558's. How hard would it be to modify the cable to fit the HD558's? I have done some searching and see its possible to modify the headphones, by...

Bleh, meant to put this in recommendations section. Sorry

Which of these is better for my needs? I will be using this mainly for playing battlefield 4 competitively. However I will also be using them for monitoring my commentarys that I record for youtube and for just everyday use (watching youtube videos and playing other games.) That is what I need...

Hello,    Tomorrow I get the 558.    And I'm wondering which card should I buy?  - I know it's not Required to buy these headphones sound card. But I realized that it gives improved beyond onboard.    The first recommendation I got was the DGX.  Rather I decided to buy. But I heard there...

I already have a Westone UM1 for use when I'm out commuting, so now I'm looking for a nice gear for home/office use.   Of the following, which would you guys recommend the most?   NAD Viso HP50 Senn HD 558 Senn HD 598   I'd prefer it if it needs no amp, but I guess I could buy at least a...

Hello guys, I'm looking to upgrade my current headphones and these three are the candidates.   What I love when listening to music is being able to follow individual instruments (specially the bass guitar) and being able to hear details, like the sound of cymbals (which sometimes are hidden...

The 80ohm pro version.   These would be perfect if I could just get some surround sound in them. Would make playing games like skyrim, fps, and watching movies 100x more enjoyable.

I am trying to remove the pads which I was able to do on my 518's but the pads on the 558's are a much softer material and seem much more prone to being ripped. They seem much to fragile to take off. I feel if I pull any harder they are going to rip! Any tips?

So back when I got these, there weren't many options as far as the extremely large cord with adapter went, has anything changed? I would love to get a shorter, coiled cable. Anyways, I broke the adapter running into it at my pc since it sticks out so dang far. What are my best options here...

Hi, I'm interested in picking up some $100-$150 headphones and I was looking at things like Sennheiser HD 558 or V-MODA Crossfade LP. However, I have a big concern. My only experience with $100 and up headphones was with my friends AKG240's, while using them I noticed a problem. Whenever a...

Hi all. New to this forum but I figured I'd join to hear some input.   I ordered the Sennheiser HD 558's off Amazon since my old Sennheiser 220's broke recently. (They were cheaply made)   I also own the ATH-M50's and they're pretty good. I might try Momentum's in the future when I get more...

ill get a mod mic unless you have other suggestions  (need to hear footsteps in CSGO)   must be lightweight be comfortable for hours   1. sound (listen to rap music games and stuff) 2.comfort (lightweight ) 3.looks (meh whatever)   This is my first post

I'm tired of iems, they sound too in my ear (limited soundstage?). (i'm not an audiophile so bear with me sry) i want something that sound more spacious with good vocal, clarity, instrument separation, and a warm sound. i'm very picky and don't like any headphone that has sibilance. I'm also...

  Alright, so I'm agoraphobic and I do a lot of my communication via skype and or google hangouts with my girlfriend or friends. A lot of times these can be for hours at a time, I dont care much about sound quality, as these headphones will just be used for listening to those type of programs...

Let me know what you think about them! I'm considering purchasing them for $120 New as an upgrade from my HD518's. (Got the 518's for $80)

I need your help, as I know close to nothing about gaming cans. My son recently got into playing Minecraft and Plants vs. Zombies in live mode against/with other kids. I bought a used gaming set that came with the cheap little xbox one earpiece with a mic set. The thing plugs straight into the...

Hey there. I don't own an amp but I have ATH-M50's and HD 558's. I might be getting 650's in the future.   How much difference does it make in having an amp to plug these headphones into? Does it sound that much better? Please explain.

Eh... I just bought my first set of good headphones.... Sennheiser HD 558s   These are my first set of good headphones so nothing to compare them to but.... This is a chilled review just for people interested in maybe buying the headphones.............. kk kk kk   Pros Comfort- when they...

I'm considering picking up a pair of HD 558.  They go for $120 ish on amazon new and $90 ish used.  Not sure if it's worth buying used?   Anyway I listen to pretty much every genre but mostly 2/3 rock and metal and 1/3 hip hop with the occasional country and classical thrown in.    Anything...

Up until this point, I've always used cheaper headphones ($40 range), and I'm looking to invest in a pair of nicer cans. I'm currently in high school, so my budget is $150, on Amazon.com, since I happen to have some gift cards there.   I listen to EDM / Indie Rock mostly, and I'm looking for a...

So I jumped the gun on a purchase of the v-moda boompro mic (www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BJ17WKK/) to go along with my Sennheiser HD 558s. I didn't realize the 558s had a special locking mechanism so a standard 2.5mm doesn't fit. On top of that, the boompro uses a 3.5mm connector. I've read you...

So...a simple question.  What are the most fun headphones that you've ever heard? By fun I mean, they made you dance, they made you feel the music, they were just very engaging, alive and...fun. :P   Mention any headphones, regardless of price, size, type, sound signature, etc....and give a...

Well, I never thought I'd do this in my life. This is my first (kind of) review of any headphones, and it has to be a Beats one! Please note that I was born and raised in French, so be indulgent with my English ;)   First, let me say that I'm in no way an audiophile. I enjoy my KEF M500, and I...
