All user reviews of 4/5 for the Sennheiser HD 650

I did that for several days but it is sufficient to form an opinion.

MODELS essays before making a choice:
APRS is a good two hours of comparative cost in stores (thank you Magma), not without difficulty that I opt for a HD 650. Testing other models: 990T Beyer, HD 600, HD 580, HD 595. (A quick test of the AKG K701 in Cobra, a direct comparison with the HD650, which I could not do)

For me, only the HD650, HD600 and Beyer 990T stood out. Prices range sennheiser are related to the quality articles, so I was looking for that "bargain" of the HD580, I quickly review my budget to rise.

My impressions:
The HD600 sounds more "acoustic" than the HD650, the acute-mdium are open without staining, and it has a trs good impression of the live, the voices come out beautifully, and highs are silky. Unfortunately, this is the price of a lack of precision in the low or even in mdiums. I have heard many more dtails the HD650 and om the power of a symphony orchestra taient best followed on the HD650.

Albums tests would cost to get l: Stacey Kent, "Breakfast on the Morning Tram," Jamiroquai "Travelling Without Moving," and Brahms, Piano Concerto n1, Berlin Philharmonic, Simon Rattle, K . Zimerman, piano.

I like the Jamiroquai album as rich trs all, but in low frequencies. It was he who made me look for the HD650 DEFINITIONS plutt his little ERRF. And in a SETTING THE miking and mixing, attention to ears, nothing can exhaust.

Attention to the choice of the source and headphone amp, because for me, the HD650 is less neutral (hlas, o 8 / 10) that the HD600, it must be given a high-end electronic apprcier really. Next step: the headphone amplifier tube.

Oh, I forgot another dtail: ct finishing, the HD650 cable trs me a good impression. To see over time.

One side plastic but upscale sober. He shakes his head on the animal! Well, it should get better with time ...

Listening is attractive, very warm, lots of depth in the sound, full bass and round ... Voices emerge fairly in your face "a lot of presence! Pretty sweet potato, more!

For cons, the accuracy is withdrawn from the 880 Beyer! ... It's a great listen but hi-fi, I find (normal headphones are advertised as that, I think). Compared to the 880 I hear a lot fewer things, the reverb tails, the hi-hats ... All is well now but a little muffled, softened ... And highs seem a bit behind in addition to being less precise ... But listen very involved, very attractive!

I set the bar a little high, but for the mix / monitoring: it remains a good high end headphones! But I keep my Beyer DT-880 Pro!

Bases of comparison: Beyer DT-880 DT-770, AKG K-702, K-240M
