Whats the best headset from logitech?

The best headphones are the ones made by companies for whom audio is their specialty. Go to r/headphones , ask "what's the best gaming headphones for [insert budget]?" You will not get a single recommendation of Logitech or Razer or HyperX or similar. And for a good reason. Some of their products ar

HD800S vs HDB630: Can wireless hang?

I have not heard the HDB 630, but I will say that price, or even the fact that it's wireless are not significant limitations. There are things cheaper Sennheiser models that do some things better than the HD 800 S, in my opinion. A good example is the midrange and treble of the HD 600 and HD 650, fo

Kurumi Tokisaki ASMR has purchased over 5k copies and ranked 1st on the store

I was the one who bought it. It is great experience when you listen 24bits 2304Kbps ASMR on Sennheiser HD800s headphone. It is like she was there right next to you, whispering at your ears.

What's your unpopular opinion in the audiophile world?

This is full of fairly common sentiments. How about this? Sometimes basshead headphones are exactly what you need, even if they do muddy the sound or hide detail. Its OK to just enjoy bass. Another take, I really dont like the Sennheiser HD800S.

What headset is better for gaming?

I own the HE1000se and all I do is game on it. I had the Sennheiser HD 490 Pro and the HD 800 S as well. Those were great for gaming and especially the 800 S for competitive play. But the HE1000se, once I picked those up, I knew I’d never pick up my Sennheisers again. They are amazing! Basically the

HD 800s 📸

Forget everything you think you know about what makes a great headphone. The real magic in the Sennheiser HD 800 S isn't about booming bass or sparkling highs in isolation. It's about something far more fundamental, yet often overlooked: its uncanny ability to lay bare the overtones in music.

A subjetividade do hobby.

Eu tenho mais reservas quanto a fones que são bem avaliados no geral e que eu não gostei. O focal utopia 2020 eu achei um fone meio boring, o famoso medíocre em tudo, excelente em nada. Não me pegou em detalhamento nem em espacialidade. Agora um que eu achei bem ruim é o sennheiser hd800s, esse fone

Amateur comparison between the Hifiman Edition XS and Hifiman Arya Organic

I heard a bigger difference going from the XS to a pair of Arya Stealths. After two years, I'm finally upgrading to the AO's now that the price dropped, and they should be arriving tomorrow. Frankly, the Arya Stealths became my favorite pair of headphones, even over a pair of Sennheiser HD800S. I co

HD600, HD800S, or Alternative?

Sennheiser will probably be fine. Aside from that, you just missed the HD 600 on sale for $379. The HD 650 is still on sale for $399 I believe, but that is on Amazon. The HD 800 S will probably be more similar sounding to your Arya depending on how well it seals on your head, and how much treble you
