Bad Guy Good Audio Rankings and stuff (under construction) (Part 2)

I’m sure we’ll find out when the usual suspects start praising a set all at once.

I’ve had both at the same time and the he6sev2 needs EQ to really slam hard. But with EQ I think it does have more impact and thump. I’d say the Argon has more subbass though and probably just overall more bass quantity.

Without EQ I’m not sure exactly as I no longer have the he6seV2. But I’d probably give the edge to the Argons.

One issue I had with the He6 was at high bass EQ and cranking up some bassy songs loud, they would touch the magnets and make a super scary sorta tearing sound. I put the stock grills back in and the problem lessened. But I’m talking about 10+db of bass and cranking volume to max, on my topping L70 to get that to happen.

Currently own T50 with LSS Paradox Slant mod and HE6SE V2.

If you’re purely talking about bass impact, I would recommend looking at a DD HP.

But if you want a comparison between the two, T50 has slightly better bass impact and slam compared to HE6SE V2. However HE6SEV2 excels at everything else compared to T50rp.

The mid range sounds slightly more natural on the T50 LSS slant modded unit and I can’t comment on the vanilla version as it’s been a while since I’ve heard it.

Any recs for a DD HP?

ZMF Atrium?

Unfortunately it’s way out of my budget. I should have mentioned it but I want to spend at maximum 1000$

iBasso SR3, Focal Clear OG (Headphones.com has them on discount now), Sivga SV023.

Best place for HP questions :ok_hand:

Well people here said the focal clears don’t really slam like that compared to the argon’s and distort easily on high volume. So difficult not having a place nearby where you can just listen to them. I haven’t heard of the other too will research them

Focals have one of the best bass punch and slam for open backs.

Focal sound very solid. Wasn’t the biggest fan but very solid. Good dynamics and impact/slam.

If price isn’t an deterrent, ZMF has some good sets. JM Audio (even smaller boutique) will custom tune and the bass there is phenomenal. Otherwise, Fostex or Sony’s Z1R.

Can you please take the headphone convo to the main Headphone or general discussion thread please. Thanks

Not many Chris…there are a few…and even fewer that stand the test of time because they learned to stand their ground…most don’t realize how difficult it is to have an opinion and not learn how to handle criticism that will inevitably comes with having one…most don’t know how to fight back… especially if they don’t possess an inordinate vocabulary or strength of character

and a lot don’t really have a passion for ear thingies… they just see the achievement of others and want to emulate them in their success

a lot are just plainly…

did you get in on the Tesla train…I’m up 52% since last week…holy shit what a run
