I know the Sony XM5s are getting a ton of hype right now, but after my M4s just bricked after barely 4 months i've decided i aint buyin shit until its been out for at least a few years so i can see how they hold up

so, fellow commie audiophile dorks, what headphones are yall using/recommending?

    Got Hifiman Sundara recently and it's pretty cool

    Before that I used Beyerdynamic DT 770. I still used that but I took it from home to work

      Beyerdynamic DT 770

      these look super comfy compared to the ATH-M50x :crush: do you use those for recreational listening or for audio production? also goes without saying, the sundaras look awesome. how long have you had those?

        Recreational listening! I got the Beyerdynamic mainly because I heard they were real comfy ( they are! ). And they've been around for a while so I trusted that they would be good

        I've had the Hifiman for around 2 months! I don't have the words to describe it properly but I like it quite a bit! They are quite open and drums sound very good

        Way back I had Seneisser HD 518s but one ear stopped working a few years ago. One day I'll figure out how to solder and I'll bring it back. Those were also so so comfy

        I have the dt990 and they are super comfy. Very soft pad material
