having a replaceable battery is one less thing to worry about, but you're still spending 650€ for a gaymer headset that you have to throw away the moment anything breaks.

The price. 90% of listeners would fail the A/B test if you were to compare them. Same applies to HD650 btw. I used to sell these for work for a number of years and I burned out when day after day autistic people (like literally people with aspergers) would come in, test them and present their opinions like they are some high ranking journalist with immense authority. Then they listen to some garbage with low DR like soundtracks from videogames. Before I got fired from that work, I took the HD600 and HD650 apart and switched the drivers and felt a little joy inside when the autists would, sure as shit, rattle on about how they can hear and FEEL the difference, with the HD650 having way more bass. Well, it didn't, they were listening to the HD600, but they didn't know it. They just read online reviews without a single critical thought. No matter what I said, amazon reviews were more correct.

It happened with speakers too, even though Yamaha HS5 sucks ass and is used as a reference in studios for bad audio (much like the old NS10 is) people don't understand WHY they are in the studio and they just assume it's because they are good speakers. Sure as shit they had an expert opinion and review lined up after listening to final fantasy music or whatever the fuck stupid shit they listen to. Even though in all cases the LSR305, Kali LP-6 and I dunno Presonus Eris 5 blew the HS out of the water every single time no matter the genre, I always got the same "well I think it has higher definition" even though it's lacking all forms of bass, it's treble. Then we had the soundcloud rappers who all wanted the KRK Rokit 5 even though that was even worse than the HS5. It was a muddy as fuck speaker but all the niggers and wiggers absolutely MUST have it because they saw it in their favorite soundcloud rapper's studio. Lil yeet yachty gang gang 420 has it must be good!!!

No wonder I burned out.

If you’re up for it, I’d like to hear your thoughts on what actually matters when selecting audio devices. I’m a person of the masses with no time or access to the resources required to judge differences in gear outside of reviews and ads. What do you as a person in the know believe normies should be concerned with?
>>
>>106973831
It's not even Sennheiser anymore.
Just some Swiss hearing aid company who bought the brand name.
>>
>>106972697
It uses Bluetooth, even with the dongle.
I was hoping it was some low latency uncompressed connection but no.

>>106972989
Using gestures on a large pad is actually pretty nice compared to having to locate tiny buttons on the side of your head.
The only problem is when it rains:
Any droplet hitting it will change the volume or skip songs.
And you can't wear a hood over them to shield from the rain because then it goes completely haywire.

I think you're supposed to be able to disable the touch pad in the app but that shit is buggy as hell and even if you manage to get it to work without crashing it will re-enable every time you power down.
>>
>>106973996
660S2 have have really nice bass for open back headphone, punchy, going nicely deep into sub bass without making mess in mid range. I haven't tried 600
>>
>>106970262
That's a shame. I'd have bought this instantly if it was 2.4g though these weren't made for me I suppose.
