iGOATYea, I listen to a pretty wide range of music and I’ve been blown away by all of it. I also use them for gaming and work where I spend a lot of time talking on the phone.
Either option you are looking at are a great choice, really. That said, after watching like 50 reviews on YouTube before purchasing, many people preferred the Sony slightly over the Air Pods Max and for $100 less with an awesome equalizer app, I’d recommend the XM5 over anything. Again, you won’t go wrong or regret either choice.
Can share my EQ settings w you if you end up getting them lmk

-Drop the 2.5k by one notch if you find the mids too high, mainly snares.
-Drop clear bass by one if the bass is too much. Keeping the bass stock on EQ and Clear Bass at 3 was perfect for me, as the XM5 are already a little bass heavy. Add a notch or two to 400 if you feel the bass is too light.
These settings go crazy for me. Looked at a bunch of diff settings and tuned here and there to what sounded best. LMK what you think after listening stock, then with these settings.

ASAKIThinking of copping a pair of HD6XX for home. Heard they're solid sound quality but are super comfy
They’re super solid, but they’re not a super “fun” headphone imo. They’re a classic, and kind of an essential for a lot of collections, but as someone who listens to a lot of hip-hop, they can’t be my primary headphone. Theyre great for other genres and a neutralish sound though.

Yeah, I'm personally not a massive audiophile, I just want something consistently decent across the board (rock, metal, jazz, indie, hip-hop). Unless other people have rec's.
I heard the HD6XX aren't very good for video games but it'll definitely be a step up from my current Steelseries gaming headset.

i would imagine the biggest issue with HD6XX for gaming is the imaging. one thing I and others have noticed that the imaging on them is subpar, so thats not ideal for games where you need to hear where noises are coming from.
I could be wrong though. do some research and see what others are saying. maybe theyre great for gaming

KFA 🏛️Aug 31, 2022KFARecently bought the Beyerdynamic 770 Pro 80 Ohms. Absolutely love them. Even the bass is great in these for a studio headphone.
These were great, but sold them and bought the AirPods Max back in December.
The AirPods Max are more convenient because of the wireless.
