I had a pair of Sennheisser HD660S that I tried to sing over to no avail, however my new/used sony MDR-Z1R pair is letting me sing over it with my deep voice.
Can anyone shine a light on why an open back wouldn’t and a closed back is?
Also, IDK guys, the general opinion of owners is that it is the greatest you can get when your listening to anything and everything. Especially popular music.
Is this an advertisement?
Not my cup of tea, but they are some damn good headphones
I mean guys, any idea why I’m being downvoted? Like… I get why you could get something a little extra with something else. However, what are you missing with this headphone?
it’s just a matter of taste. I doubt many here have even tried them tbh… every brand has fanboys and haters, Sony is no exception. I really like their build quality (have 1AM2’s and Z7M2’s) and wear one or the other over 8 hours when stuck in the office, both are super comfortable and I am accustomed to their tonality. Enjoy what you enjoy.
Mate, meme-monday was a few days ago, you gotta wait for that, the MDR-Z1R is an actual mid headphone, not even close to TOTL
Isn’t it by definition the TOTL for the MDR series? I took TOTL to mean the highest offering for a series of headphones.
Not saying anything about their quality as I never heard them.
Sometimes I wonder whether posts like these are real or high level trolls. This might be the headphone equivalent of the famous Reddit post where a guy claimed to get in trouble for eating dinner with his girlfriend’s family and pretending he didn’t know what potatoes were. Most likely fake but still hilarious.
There was a post last week where someone got to audition the HE-1 and complained that it was “mediocre.” I started typing a response then just closed without saving … not worth the time.
