Reply to comment by AdAlternative9011 in Got the loot boys and let me clear things up around the Sennheiser 660S2 by AdAlternative9011

I don't think it's misleading at all.

They charge nearly double, but for what? Different tuning?

The build is the same, although you get an extra cable.

That must be ONE expensive cable then :)

From where I stand you could just get the HD 600, boost the bass a bit and reduce the treble, using EQ to get the S2 for half the price.

So yea, I think the S2 is daylight robbery.

A notch at 4k is something that happens, when you fuck up the tuning process.

If you show me where I can EQ, I mean really EQ any headphones on my iPad that would cool. Or should I buy a Mac to use apple music and be able to EQ properly? Then we are talking about 1000$+ of money spending. I see your point but it is not valid in my use case.

EQ software is free on windows and android. Your fault for choosing a restrictive ecosystem, I guess.

But a quidelix 5k has EQ and doubles as a DAC amp for 120 bucks.

HD 600 + DAC/amp with PEQ still costs less than the S2.

YIKES.

Wait, are you saying that 1) iPads can't use Apple Music, and 2) there's no app on iOS that lets you apply a parametric EQ?

1, I did not say that. Apple music is literally open on the picture. 2, If you know one let me know.

Ah, so you meant use Apple Music and EQ together. Gotcha.

I have no idea about Apple stuff, so I was just surprised.
