Superlux HD681 Headphones

Product Information

Recommend for users love enjoy any genre musics indoor with simple way (not DJ style) and replace its ear pads (velour pads or others). The comfort is ok. I would suggest changing the pads for velour pads. A little more comfortable and less 'hot' for the ears. Lost my AKG K403, my very first HD headphone (to me). Very low on budget, found this, bought it, waited for a near month, worth the wait. (was aiming for portability but... this price is so really pushes me to this) The AKG pads are a must for any of these Superluxes, so 662 will probably end up both more expensive and to whatever extent inferior in sound quality.

I would guess that this is the 2nd badge of the HD681. differentiable by the position of "2x32ohm" print*Pros: Spacious sound with good clarity, depth and punch making them ideal for gaming. Gorgeously musical. Ridiculous price. This sounds really great if you have retro songs from the 60-80's. Tried Pink Floyd - Money, omg soo warm and retro feeling~ It usually has to do with the tonal balance of a headphone. For example a headphone with higher energy in the upper midrange and treble will generally be colder sounding. I dont know if this is actually an audiophile headphone (or even monitor) as this one has a bit coloured signature. but great to have though and pretty sounds natural to me is this kinda.. true...? or is my ears playing my mind... or did my HD 681 just gone burn-in so soon? (well, i enjoyed too much of Sony MDR-Z1R, with DSD as well, so mindblowing)

The best way to EQ headphones (that I know of) is by using Foobar and VST plugins. There are some dedicated threads about this in the Computer Audio section. Hey, I just bought the HD681 B as a temporary replacement for my Grados and I would like some suggestions on some light EQ through Winamp (or some 3rd party EQ sofware if needed) as the sound is unbearable at higher frequencies.

Because I really dislike the one with the red rings I bought the one with silver rings, not realizing that it has a different sound. But it looked cooler, that's a lot to be said here... SO today is time to make a little review of a not so well keeped secret chinese monitor headphone Gem.

I don’t know how Superlux can make these headphones at the price. The build quality is good but more importantly they sound great. I prefer these to my Grado SR80’s at a fraction of the price. An absolute bargain. Setup: Windows Media Player (Variable Bit-Rate WMAs at approximately 300kbps) -> PreSonus AudioBox USB ->Superlux HD681

While comfort is ok, when wearing glasses they can be uncomfortable if you don't position them just right. The Superlux HD681 semi-open headphones approach hi-fi quality with a very detailed sound, and have a very even bass response; also, they are well-constructed, comfortable, and insanely cheap. The best for the price. Highly recommended for another collection. Later i will try to compare this to my local available headphones like Beyerdynamic DTX910, DT880, T1, Sennheiser HD598, AudioTechnica ATH-M30x, M40x, M50x, Sony MDR-100AAP, 1A if i have time. I had been using Sennheiser HD595 for several years until the headphone cable got caught between the armrest of my chair, which eventually caused it to fall down to its' death. So looking for a replacement headphone with a similar sound clarity but with a far smaller budget in mind... I wasn't very optimistic to say the least. The bass is kinda just a bit stronger than my preferred but can be tuned down just a bit. But for sure, entire bass frequency area is really amazing~ Is tight too~
