today is an exciting day my friends and the reason why is because I'm about to hit you with a deal a crazy deal depending on how aware you are of how legendary this set of headphones in front of me actually is so recently master I've got in touch with me and he said we got these new headphones that are coming out we would love for you to make a video I said let's do it they're called the HD 6x X and what they are is a reissue a remake of retail on the legendary HD 650 from Sennheiser now if you don't know about those headphones they sort of started this movement into the audiophile style headphone being accessible and available in the average person's home open back listening around the ear cup design that was the HD 650 and HD 650 people are still buying them all the time between four and five hundred dollars that said mass drop they were like let's team up with Sennheiser and we think we can do it a step better we're gonna make a few small tweaks and we're gonna hit the people with a far better price what is that price Jack $200 limited availability 2 HD 6 xx this is gonna be a $200 reference class headphone Wow a nice box n hyzer box to keep them in oh look at those babies if you've ever seen the 650s before you know they weren't this color but now there's this like deep blue kind of coloring here and look at these nice giant ear cups on this that's what I love I want it to be all the way around the ear look how deep that pocket is there now I've talked about it in the past the advantages have been opened back generally speaking this gives you a wider perception of sound the ambience and the room almost has a personality if you want to lean back and get the ultimate experience at least in my opinion you probably want something open back and that's exactly what these are for what for 200 another thing I'm noticing straight away is how lightweight these are these are made in Ireland that's interesting and course adjustable as you see here the branding so that you know it's a mass drop exclusive collaboration you can see the mass drop logo in that location over there so the previous version had a much longer cable which is great for at home listening but not so useful when you're on the go they took the ten-foot cable from the 650 and turned it into a six-foot cable in this case the other thing they've done for on-the-go listening is giving you a native mini jack termination for a 3.5 millimeter instead of the 6.3 millimeter quarter inch jack which used to be the default termination on the 650 so when your phone is in your pocket yes you can now connect these directly to your phone it looks like these have detachable cables let's just verify that yes they do they're headphones what are we here for me we gotta test these babies out I've got a turntable in a tube amp but then I'm gonna do the unthinkable I'm gonna take these beautiful headphones and plug them directly into my phone and see what happens whoo-hoo let's just let's just listen to some music real quick no big deal if you've never listened to an open-back headphones before there seems to be a lot of detail surrounding each independent instrument this idea of having a lot of space for each one of those instruments to breathe look at that vinyl right there that beauty $200 are you kidding me they claim I can go ahead and chuck these babies straight into my phone so here we go let me tell you something your mileage is gonna vary on this depending in the power of the amplifier on your particular device for me it's like these are these are beauty headphones right you're gonna want to get the most out of them so even on a mobile device I probably recommend some sort of small pocket amplifier just to put a little bit of oh just to put a little more juice on the wire because once you heard it like this you kind of wish that's what you ended up having on the mobile as well you know what I'm saying and that's the unique scenario with the HD 6x X and I know a lot of people wish that they could step up to that different style of listening experience and believe me this is a this is a totally different thing from that pair of beats that you see sitting on a shelf at the local Apple store it's not the same thing in the 200 bucks it's just might need these in your life I'm just gonna jump back to Highline Miami real quick cuz that's just I just want to go out like that
