But it's only available in Midnight Blue. I kinda hate how it looks tho 🙄

I think it looks fine, I have it and the HD600. Thinking of selling the HD600 as I prefer the HD6XX so it's superfluous.

If you are interested in these, get them. Highly unlikely they will ever be cheaper than this, and very likely the price goes up.

Sold my HD650s a few years ago when I bought my HD800S. I still miss them at times so I think I’m going to pick these up.

For how much you selling it?
blorg OP t1_iwlwokt wrote
8,000 THB including delivery to anywhere in Thailand. It's basically new, with box, maybe 5-10 hours listening on it. I have too many headphones.

I have the HD800S as well but I still appreciate the HD6XX, it is a very different headphone. Technically, the HD800S is much better, but tonally, the HD6XX, and there are times I prefer that. It's also simply more compact, which can be better if lying in bed. To be honest the logical tonal upgrades to the HD6XX are really more the Focal Clear and Utopia, which I listen to more than the HD800S.
"Comforting" is right.
blorg OP t1_iwm59s0 wrote
It's still not the same, the HD800S EQs extremely well but is always going to sound somewhat ethereal and diffuse. It's a much better headphone technically, but the HD6XX does provide a different, more intimate presentation and is tonally possibly more "right" and natural sounding out of the box than any other headphone. If I could only pick one, sure I'd take the HD800S any day and EQ it. But for $199 can probably afford to keep the HD6XX around too.
blorg OP t1_iwm5ywm wrote
$15 shipping to the EU, if you get the $10 first order discount that's $204 total shipped.
I put this in my comment, they do ship this internationally at a very reasonable rate.
Yes you'd need to pay VAT on import, if it's stopped. Americans need to pay sales tax on top of the price as well.

You can listen at a nice volume over single ended 100%.
balanced is a p nice thing tho if you want. If you listen at a healthy level (<80ish) the single ended output will give you plenty of power. The btr5 can smack a surprisingly good volume.
on9desu t1_iwmiufm wrote
I’ve been thinking of upgrading to the Focal Clear but hesitant because of the weight difference compared to the HD6x0. Comfort is a big factor for me because I wear headphones for 5+ hours a day. How is the comfort on the Clear in your opinion for long hour usage?
Brymlo t1_iwmjtrp wrote
The HD25 are good on-ears for travel. Light, compact, and good sound.
blorg OP t1_iwmjwxc wrote
I find it extremely comfortable, if anything the Clear is more comfortable than the HD6XX/HD600 because the clamp force is lower. It's not too low, it's still perfectly stable, just right. The HD6X0s aren't problematic for me, but I feel the clamp more, the Focals just dissolve away more. The HD800S is also very comfortable and with a light clamp, incidentally, but the Focals feel just a bit more stable.
For my head, at least, Focal make extremely comfortable headphones, I can wear them indefinitely. I did add a headband cover which spreads out the contact a bit but it's comfortable either way.
One issue with the Clear, it has a bit of a creak. It's not a major problem actually on the head but it does creak a lot putting it on, or handling it off the head. Just sort of a "$1,000 headphone shouldn't really do this" sort of thing.

Will_Poke_Brains t1_iwmkymt wrote
Hot take. Don’t buy these. Sure they are REALLY good sounding and resolving more than other headphones if these are your first real audiophile cans but they don’t have significant base if you listen to EDM, rap, R&B, or other bass requiring genres. They have almost zero soundstage and the imaging is murky at best. These were my first nice headphones and while again, they sound super nice, I began to realize how much they were lacking because the bass and soundstage are big componentes of music that I can’t be without and feel happy about my purchase or listening experience.
SteakTree t1_iwml4xj wrote
Can understand. Owned the HD650 twice. Then went the LCD2, HD800 and then Utopia route.
I wanted to only have one open-back over-ear and after many years have found the near ideal headphone in the HD660S. But HD650 is still different and has always had that magic to its sound.

Kirei13 t1_iwmn6vb wrote
That's an issue with not doing any research on sound signatures, not a problem with the headphones themselves. People buy the HD 6xx for the tuning, comfort, durability and how good their vocals sound. Nobody buys them for their bass for EDM.

The HD800s EQed to Harman blows the HD650 out of the water imo.
on9desu t1_iwmok83 wrote
That is very helpful. Thank you. Clamp force actually doesn’t bother me that much. I’m one of those maniacs who doesn’t feel the need to stretch the headband on a brand new HD600 lol. But I dislike headphones that dig into the top of my head after wearing them for awhile. Unfortunately most higher end headphones are quite heavy so a lot of good sounding ones are out of my consideration. The NDH30 I tried recently had this problem even though it is just 350 grams. I had to return it due to the discomfort even though it sounded great. The DT 900 pro X has about the same weight but for some reason I don’t have a problem with it. So it is hard to tell with just the weight alone.
Yes the creak! I tried the Clear MG at a local store and that was the first thing I noticed as I was putting it on. I agree an expensive headphone shouldn’t be doing that. Definitely felt a bit cheap but everything else on it is super nice that kind of make up for it I guess lol. I’ve only tried it at the store so I couldn’t tell the long term usage on it. Thanks for the help!

Honestly I’ve been out of the headphone game cuz I’m broke and haven’t been able to try more. I’d recommend some HiFiman cans but I don’t trust their QC since so many of them brake. I’m not really sure what a good TRUE all rounder headphone is at a $200 price point. I’ve been out of the game for a while but I know that for me, these ain’t it.
Will_Poke_Brains t1_iwmr8qu wrote
Oh I know, but mind you before headphones got really popular like they have people were still actually saying how the bass on 650’s was still good for those genres and people said this just isn’t a headphone for BASSheads. As if wanting a headphone that can produce deep bass makes someone a basshead, as opposed to wanting the bass over pronounced for fun. It just wasn’t accurate advice from the community back then and you can’t get information on soundstage or imagining in a sound signature curve (or whatever that response curve thing is called). People talk about how great the headphone is at what it does but its really made clear about what it can’t do. At least back when I was buying headphones in like 2015. Its a great can for what it does I just didn’t want someone to regret their first high end purchase for a can that can’t do it all regardless of how well.

SteveThePirate_69 t1_iwn1fzu wrote
This is all highly subjective. For me, there's more than enough bass, and too much if I use EQ. The soundstage is as good as any headphone under 300$ that I've ever heard, and its detail is higher than any other 300$ headphone I've heard, by far.
JdeFalconr t1_iwn1kun wrote
I've got M1570 and Ath-r70x. It's tough reading folks on here rave about headphones like this because when I inevitably pick them up (I'm a sucker for a good deal) I'm disappointed. The M1570's have spoiled me.
SteakTree t1_iwn2x3z wrote
Agree. To add, a tonally correct headphone conversely will have the best soundstage when used with spatial DSP that is designed for such tonal curves (IEF, Harman, etc).
SteakTree t1_iwn3cig wrote
Yup, that was an incredible headphone. Sold it and wish I didn't. At the time I was thinking my XBA-Z5 was as good or better, which is/was the case, but sometimes you just want an over-ear closed back.

Hd 58x for $150. They have better bass for gaming.
rolokone t1_iwn8ica wrote
They are just completely different headphones. The Sonys are wireless, active noise cancelling headphones with microphone feature, making them excellent for your commutes. Whereas the senneheisers are wired, open headphones that are don't block out sound in the environment. The Senns will shine if you a reasonably quiet environment with good equipment driving them.
Bottom line, just consider what you are looking to get out of your headphones.

Well when it released it was 200$ and and was simply a 650 rebranded with mass drop and in blue. It’s still that but they’ve been increasing the price steadily over the last 2-3 years. It’s now losing the biggest advantage it had over other headphone, the price. It now has to compete in the 300$ range instead of 200$

It took some breaking in for me as they clamped pretty hard imo. Now they feel perfect.
Not a fan of either of the pro version's cables, though. Coiled one is pretty heavy and the other one is short as hell.
HD660S was more comfortable for me initially but Focal is better after a while. Where my ears would touch the padding in the middle with Sennheisers there is no such problem with Focals.

They aren't that good even for the price for vocals. They are pretty grainy unless you have a totl speaker amp sitting around in vocals and always present them in this odd way where dead center of the center blob is less loud than it's edges, giving a "behind a box" feel to the vocalist.

I don't know, I have never tried them.
blorg OP t1_iwof44e wrote
From a quick Google I got:
>When I got my K7xx, they didn't ding me. However, other items over time they have. I'm not sure what's their criteria. I will say, in general, the smaller the item, the likelier they will just let it by. However, if they do decide to value it, you will be charged $9.99 (fee) + HST/GST on (CAD$ converted value). There was no duty on my audio gear.
There's also another guy in this thread saying he wasn't charged for importing something to Canada. I'd expect to be charged but it's luck of the draw to an extent.
That doesn't sound unreasonable to me. I am European, I currently live in Thailand, in both importing stuff from outside we need to pay customs duty, VAT and the shipping company handling fee.
$10 CAD plus only the GST (5-15%) just doesn't sound unreasonable to me. Most of this is tax, that's a thing we all pay, this is what gets you schools and healthcare. It's still a good price for this headphone.
I explicitly said, expect to pay VAT on import. Sometimes, depending on country, it does just slip through, but I expect to pay it on anything I import. You pay it on anything you buy within the country, it's just baked into the price by the importer already (in every country that isn't the US or Canada, prices are quoted tax inclusive).
I paid $60 shipping on a headphone from Adorama, $105 from Audeze. The tax and shipping company fee is on top, I still have to pay that. And with couriers like these use, it's unavoidable, they always charge you. If something is sent USPS as it sounds like Drop do, there's a chance it won't be charged.
So yes $15-20 looks very reasonable.

Drop do actually ship this internationally and international shipping is quite reasonable, $15-20. You may have import duties and/or VAT depending on your country's specifics, and luck of the draw, but this could well still work out as a very good price for what is essentially a dark blue HD650.
