  1. A classic.

    I've always been a fan of the HD 650.

    Measures quite well with a relatively smooth frequency response.

    Its warmer sound is not for everyone.

    Good job on the measurement.

    1. Comfortable fit, smooth FR, broad bandwidth, and low distortions. Great headphone!

  2. Wow! The Harman curve through the critical midband is extraordinary! And the lift above 10khz is good for old guys like me:-)
