Reply to comment by fabzzzyyyy in What gear/experience got you hooked? by rtv-

Nice.

My dad had a similar system when I was growing up. Still has it actually. He's got about 300 vinyl records from the 60s up to today. He never had headphones though, was hooked up to a multi speaker system he'd worked on over the years.

I've always been interested in the 560s. I have DT990 Pro, AKG K702 and original Grado SR60 at the moment. I really enjoy bright treble so they suit me pretty well. How would you compare the 560s?

Personally for me the dt990 are way too bright cant Here Them more than 1 hour. The 560s are very flat very neutral but Not that Bad in treble for me. Good Soundstage and Imaging. I also have a pair of tygr 300r he400se hd660 akg 371. But im Always going Back to 560s. That Sennheiser 500 series IS so comfortable. Can wear Them the whole day. I strechted Them 1 day ON their Box too loosen the clamp a Bit and now i might sell my Others cause they are bot used. Yeah my das also Had alot of Vinyl they were in big boxes. But nowadays He uses Laptop with dac amp and some Headphones.

Nice collection. Definitely feel like Sennheiser is in my future. Never owned any but I've been so close to pulling the trigger a few times.

It's funny how we all have different preferences. I'm a firm believer that if you like the sound you get then it's good sound, regardless of price/reputation etc. I guess that's why it's such an engaging hobby.
