RE: Vinyl Listening On Headphones...

Dave: Can't comment on the HD555, 'cause I only have a HD595 in my collection - and that's an exemplar from the initial edition, which had 120 Ohm instead of the later 50 Ohm drivers. For my taste quite a nice sounding model, albeit with a bit of (upper) midrange grain - and in my view a bit expensive for its level of performance. To my ears it seemed pretty similar to Beyerdynamic's at that time new DT440 - with the main difference being that the Beyerdynamic seemed to show no graininess, but a bit of an annoying treble instead. Neither of the two was able to dethrone my two favourites in that class, though - which are the Beyerdynamic DT531 and the AKG K240S(tudio).

Greetings from Munich!
