Rainier Davenport Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 ... adidas! HD-25's getting a makeover at NAB. (perfect for the Nike commercial your getting booked on) Also in "Amperior" finish... allrighty, sort of lame, but I'm genuinely excited for NAB! I know something good is coming! What a coincidence! I bought a pair of these today. The pair I have been using for the last 10 years still sound great, but on one side the driver slips down. They were heaps cheaper than a normal pair. I love HD 25's and I have a pair Sony 7506's but I'm not huge on them, feel like I'm swimming in them. I've never had any cable problems.

soundtrane Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 Intermittent cable though, you can get a new one no big deal.>>> It's not the cable itself, it is the two prong connector and the female side that is inaccessible unless you split open the cups. i really want to know if Senn haas FIXED this NAGGING problem, or else i have to end up switching. and no, changing the cable does not help. -vin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solid Goldberger Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 Sorry to be late to the party... I bought a pair of these last year, mostly because I liked the blue color versus the stock black, and also because they come with a pair of velour replacement pads as well. But mostly because they're blue. To my ear, they definitely sound "better" then 7506s, both in terms of fidelity and rejection of outside sounds. However, I find myself going back to my 7506s nearly all the time when i'm doing ENG for 2 reasons: First, when booming with one hand and mixing with the other, I find that I can rest the boom on the pad on the top of the 7506s, which isnt an option of the 25s--I do this a lot more then I'd realized. Secondly, the Sennheisers are much harder to put on and off with one hand, which i can do with the Sonys with little effort. However, I find that I use the sennehisers more for DJing, or just general listening around the house, as they do sound wonderful. When out on the town its $40 sony earbuds.

studiomprd Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 " want to know if Senn haas FIXED this NAGGING problem " apparently no one is nagging Sennheiser (USA) about it; I asked several folks, including technical folks, including long time friends at the Sennheiser booth, and they were all unaware of any such "nagging problem", this not aware of any fix or changes.

Denielle Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I think the rule with the Adidas cans, if you go for it, you also have to show up on set with a plush blue jogging suit and of course a set of Sambas. I was wondering... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denielle Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 If I might suggest the Ultrasone HFI 680 as a wonderful alternative to the Sony 7506. Eric Ooo-la-la. I am looking for a new pair of headphones... and being very particular. I have been considering Ultrasones... I do not like the Sonys or the Sennheisers much at all.

Spencer Moore Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Even though they're big and dorky I have a pair of Beyer DT-100s that I wear around the house, and they are F*cking bulletproof. Can't break them if you tried. Anyways +1 for HD-25s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VASI Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Not for sure AKG K171MK II.. My big mistake. Next month I will buy Sennheiser HD25-II. For me the sound is good from this headphones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Lewis Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 +1 for the HD25's and for In ears I have been using the Shure Se535's. They are incredible sounding! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
