On all songs, but not initially. What happens with the HD 660S, S2, etc. and others have the unsymmetrical venting is they bother more the longer I listen to them. They're fine the first hour or so then their sound starts sounding harsher and more irritating the longer I listen to them.Do u find them fatigue these 660s and s2 on all songs ? or it was specific notes ? Did u try just for test to eq them to see if that fix it ? if it does then it was something about the sound signature that u doesnt work with u . Because is true 660s and S2 up on highs are different compared to 600 and 650. the strange thing is that most people find that signature way smoother and warmer compared to 600.
Yeah I found both of them more fatiguing than the T1.3, but I also found them more fatiguing than the T1.2 (black edition) and Amiron Home. The T1.3 is tuned quite differently but does still have more treble energy than the Senns. Beyers can sound spicy initially coming from Senns but they bother me less the longer I listen to them. Headphones like the Beyers and HD 600/650 bother me less the more I listen to them, whereas the S1/S2 bother me more the longer I listen to them. I find the HD 650 a bit hard sounding in the upper mids at first but once I listen longer it becomes a non-issue.Really strange , U find S2 more fatigue than S1 , and also S2 more fatigue than Beyer T1.3 ??? Is this Gen 3 way different than Gen 2 ? doesnt have that Beyer type sound of 6k-7k peak ?
I think that at the end of the day the hearing of people is really different .
True, people definitely have different tastes. I know Beyers are trashed for their spicy treble on most models or unique tuning (such as the T1.3) but they are technically no slouches especially for the price and I never had problems with their mids or bass. Some Beyers are too bright for me too, but the fatigue I get from that is different, it’s just a specific FR region that bothers when it’s being highlighted too much. Yeah the HD 6 line has great vocals and timbre. Many people don’t like the HD 6xx line because they find it boring, dull, or veiled or something along those lines but they have excellent timbre and vocals.Its not bad to dislike a Headphone , for example i dislike Koss portas that everyone love .
The problem is trashing a good quality headphone because u dont like the sound signature ( not talking about u ) , Me for example i can see the Superiority of Beyers and i have a lot of respect for them , but sound signature was something difficult for me , i have use some foam discs on some of them and use them for over a year ... amazing speed and dynamics.
So i feel the same about HD 6 line , they can say anything they want if they dont like this signature , but vocals , timbre ,organic smouth sound is spot on everyone knows that.
