EQ’ing that bass in is effortless. Got a 4.4mm cable for them with a nice braid.

I do gaming with them and it just feels so freaking wide.

I’m a percussion guy. Drums and intricate percussive ellements, in music, sound blissful.

Try listening to Dinossaur - OTR Remix, close your eyes and have fun.

    I currently have the AKG K240 MK1, and when I bought them they were a ton better than any other headphones I’ve previously owned. Rtings doesn’t have my model but they do have the MK2 which is slightly different. Comparing that to the HE400se, I saw the HE400se is slightly more EQ accurate and has better build quality, but in terms of other aspects like their openness and soundstage is fairly similar.

    As someone at an entry level in this hobby, would it be a worthwhile upgrade or not necessarily? Would I be better off considering a different choice at a similar price point? At the end of the day I’m fairly satisfied with my original budget friendly choice, but I have had them for about 4 years now, and I can definitely feel the poorer build quality failing after time.

      I have the MKII. Sweet gorgeous mids. The bass is poor tho …

      EQ’ing them was a battle but I finally got something I like.

      I love my AKGs for the mids.

      But the HE400se does everything else better, in my opinion.

      If you have a good source, it’s a worth while purchase.
