Only 25K subs?? Everything about your video production says 1 million plus to me. Great b-roll, backround music, very professional. Just earned a new sub
I've used the 6xx on my pc setup without an Amp and they sounded phenomenal so if you're wanting to get the 6xx's but don't have enough money for an Amp atm you can get those headphones, it just won't be super duper clear when your wanting to blast your ear drums out. Listening to stuff at normal level and mid-high range sounds really, really good. Can't reccomend enough.
Its a bit late, but do you think without an amp it would still be very good for gaming? Ive been using steelseries 7 for a while and want a new headset and i really dont like what " gaming" headphones atm nothing seems really better than my steelseries.
@@omjviper5835 go with the 58x if you haven’t already bought the 6xx. I have both but the 6xx is terrible for gaming be cuz of its poor imaging. Not to say it’s a bad headphone. It amazing for music, movies and entertainment and for casual games but definitely not for competitive fps games. 58x while the sound stage is similar, it has very good imaging, seperation, layering, and depth and you can tell where things are with the “small” soundstage provided. Quotation marks on small because it’s small for open back headphone but definitely wider than any closed back headphones and still sounds spacious.
@@HeyNavi Not wider than closed-back Beyerdynamics DT-770 250. Price and sound quality on that and HD58X are very very close. For anyone considering which of those to get, here are the pros and cons: DT770: closed-back means sound isolation, none gets in or out; better soundstage, better sub-bass, crispier sparkly treble. HD58X: more neutral tuning, more organic natural sound, micro-slightly better detail resolution?, non-fatiguing cozy romantic feel to the music. If you put a gun to my head to pick one for my ONLY headphones I'd really hesitate but maybe pick the 58X, but that's just based on me slightly preferring that cozy organic natural. The 58X really shine at classic rock. With that said, an interesting variant is to go for planars like Hifiman HE400 series or Sundara or HE560 if you've got a little more money. They are slightly less lush than the two dynamics mentioned, especially the 58X. But the better soundstage and detail are an impressive notch up in those areas. As in "wow".
Great video, Owned a pair of the 650's years ago and recently picked up the 58X, cant go wrong with either set here but I am definitely happy with the 58X's
I wish I found this video sooner because I would have had answers to some questions that I spent a lot of time researching. I bought the hd58x yesterday. You also saved me a few bucks because I was about to by the wrong extension cord. Great video.
Squeeze the sides of my head a lot, and the solid top band gives me headaches (many of that style - vs suspension band that float - do). I stretched em out a bit, even chipped off some of the labeling on the top band as a result, but they still sit heavy
@@EposVox Try putting them on a foam yoga block to stretch them out even more. I have a pair of HD558s, and compared to my HE-4XX, the clamping force is a lot less and they are so much lighter it feels like they aren't even there.
As someone with hearing damage from too many loud concerts you sold me on the HD58X. I can't remember if it was this video or one of the others where you mention it, but you said it wasn't as harsh as the others, and that was exactly what I needed to ... hear. Thanks, buying some now!
@@almog3875 I did, so far I am really happy with them. They do exactly what I wanted. Helped with my tinnitus hearing sensitivity while gaming, and my anxiety from the closed in sound. I'll be doing a video myself on them soon, in case other people have similar issues to what I have. :)
just got a pair of the 58x jubille in the mail today, and my m-audio solo is more than enough to run it. absolutly love these things. as my first open back headset i am absolutly in love, you couild even say im in jubilation
My 58X's arrived yesterday, they are AMAZING for gaming. Way better than my GSP600's and a much better fit for gaming than my Hifiman Sundara's. Really impressed!
@@amuuusing6713 I know it's late and not my comment but I use the JDS labs atom with them which is a nice 100 dollar amp, it is plastic but its completely ok and well built only issue is the nob can be taken off but it holds well and is MORE than enough to power the hd58x jubilee's which I've been rocking these 2 combined for almost 2 years now I believe
Excellent review Brian! My 58X is finally coming in either today or tomorrow. And now the rabbit-holing really begins, because I might need a DAC to get the most out of these. But my setup is PC audio out (3.5mm) to my Technics stereo receiver, and my headphones plug into that. There's plenty of amplification for sure, but I don't know if adding a DAC will improve the sound quality.
I liked your video so I brought the HD x58 with your link, hope it helps. I wasn't 100% sure about getting these but I think I made the right choice. I come from the arctis 7 so I guess anything is better. Keep it up man, new sub.
That divot on the top of the head band is for your knowledge bump. Mine is bigger after watching your awesome vids! BadSeed, BadAss. Stay up Bro! Love my Senns.
this video was lit i was trying to buy a new headset for my ps4 and I stumbled upon mass drop then I found this video and by the way you were the only person on youtube to talk about the ohms which helped me a lot you have earned my respect and a subscriber
Loved the review . been wondering the same thing about these two headphones you Convinced me to order the mayflower objective 2 amp for my hd6xx before thinking of getting the hd58x
"And maybe hit the like button on your way out.." 😂 Lol Another awesome review Dude! You're awesome because you know your stuff, you have your funny moments, and you can keep your reviews relatable to the average person, gamer, or someone who just really cares about their audio. Good stuff!
I'm really glad you decided to start listing the earcup dimensions. You're now my favorite reviewer for future headsets. Have you ever used the Lucid Sound LS35x/31/41?
You should definitely get a Discord server running. It would be awesome to have a BadSeed Discord community. I feel like you could build quite the community of techies.
I own most of the products that I watch you review, I watch them anyways because your presentation is phenomenal. Keep it up man, that sub count is going to explode.
Hey man, I watched alot of headphone video's by other youtubers, and watching yours was like a breath of fresh air. I really love your fast paced, straight forward no bs style. Keep up the good work!
Your videos are awesome man, watching this while searching for the best entry level audiophile headphones for gaming/music. You will hit 1 mil one day if you keep going with this level of quality, gauranteed
Solid, awesome review!! Great style and to the point presentation! Super good explanation to folks explaining the ohm factor especially. Well done! I got the 58x, extremely happy!
Just bought a 58x after many hours of research. replacing a corsair wireless headset. also got a mod mic, and soundblaster G6, of course using your affiliate links. your videos are f@#$ing addicting dude.
Damn dude, as a HiFi-audio newbie I was pretty los as to which to choose. You literally answered every single question that I had and made up my mind beyond any doubt. Amazing video, You just earned a sub!
do you use an amp with them? i am upgrading from hyperx clouds and i was wondering if the sound is good for competitive games without an amp? thanks bro!
Own the 58x's and yes they have enough amount bass to satisfy me but they lack impact or speed on the base in many songs if that makes sense and that is their weakest point. Mids and highs are good and I find that male vocals especially sound good on them.
Nice review you certainly know audio 👍with some sweet b roll while going into great detail like the ear cup dimensions which is good to know to ensure a nice fit. Do you know if you can swap out the ear cups? My cats hair mine up like crazy lol
Thanks Bob. Just learning mid-tier audio. There's some guys in the comments that make me feel like a total noob honestly. I hear your with the cats, there's a fella in the comments that named a couple replacement pad options. I think there are a few different options out there bc this is such a common frame style.
I have HD599, HD58X, HD6XX . HD6XX are more detailed with dark sound , HD599 have a lot of high bass and fast and Biggest Soundstage of them all perfect for Games , and HD58X its in the middle they are more clear than HD599 but no from HD6XX , they also have the best low bass from them all .
Would love to see a review/comparison to the Massdrop AKG k7xx and your content trumps that of channels with millions of subs. Keep up the great videos!
I've got the HE4XX up next for headphones and then I'll see about the k7xx for sure. I'm already getting a lot of comments that they have a better soundstage.
I've heard just about everywhere that the k7xx only wins in soundstage and everything else is lackluster. Definitely looking forward to the HE4XX though!
@@badseedtech Just an update, but for me the stack is totally worth ~$200! I've been testing it with the Sony WH-1000XM3 (both with and without ANC on) since I'm waiting on my HD6XX and is pretty damn impressive! It might be an idea for a future review.
Thank you for the perfectly timed review! I'm probably going to settle on the 58X, but I still have a question if anyone can help. Would an audio interface like the Scarlet Solo or the Rode AI-1 be enough to power them?
Thanks, and you shouldn't feel like you're settling for the 58X - they are soooo close to the 6XX. And you should be good using an interface in the short term even though the Scarlett is bus powered, I'm pretty sure they class it for phones up to 200ohm. Thats the beauty part is that they can grow with you if you expand into an amp at a later date.
What would be a good budget dac amp combo for the hd58x I’m looking at getting a pair of them just not sure if my motherboard audio could really bring the potential out of them
It's funny that you hear the 6xx as being a bright headphone when the consensus is that they are a darker sound signature compared to other Senn offerings. It goes to show how everyone hears things differently and you should demo headphones before purchasing if possible
Oh most definitely. The HD 58X sounds waaaay more veiled to me personally. It's also why I'm fearful to tread into audiophile reviews. I've listened to reviewers rave about certain phones and they sounded WILDLY different to me after I bought them.... eventually I've learned to know the reviewers well enough to make an educated decision but sometimes I feel like that's too steep (and expensive) a learning curve for me to put my viewers through. It's definitely an area where I will step lightly going forward.
Great Content, keep it up!. Also I'm looking forward to watch your next video as I currently have the 58x with the gsx1000 and it sounds great, but i think maybe there could exist a better amp/dac for the 58X, even for gaming purposes.
Looking forward to seeing what you think of the GSX-1000 for the HD58X and the Nari Ultimates 🤔 I’m sure the surround would be great on both but I’m eager to know what situations you’d prefer the haptics or the overall better sound from the 58X. Keep up the great videos man, you know your shit and for me you’re up there with Hardware Canucks
Right, its like a hypnotist's pendulum. Your eyes are getting very heavy...heavy..heavy. Concentrate on my voice... Buy sennheiser 58x, or Buy sennheiser 6xx... Theyre both great. Theyre both super values. When i snap my fingers, you will awake feeling refreshed, like a great weight has been lifted from your chest. And you will nolonger be familiar with the brands beyerdynamic nor audio technica. You will forget them. Sennheiser...sennheiser! *snap*
Every time I think, man I would really like if he threw (x) into this vid - oh, I spoke too soon. Brian's got your back! That gamer headset comparison mention was just perfect!!!
Very good review and info. New subscriber. Just picked up the 58x because of the 150 ohm vs 300 ohm. I'd like the option to use my phone without an amp on occasion.
Brian, I for sure am a bad seed shill and will always recommend you as a great watch to anyone. I can’t believe how much your camera work has improved man. You haven’t been this consistent with content in a while. When you came back with the new beard, it was like a revival for the channel. Keep it up dude I’m glad you’re back!
I appreciate the support more than you know, man. Don't normally talk about it but the beard is symbolic. The day I decided to grow it, I was coming out of some heavy real-life shit. It marked a revival for me on a lot of levels. There's a warrior behind that beard. It's awesome that you've been there since jump. This year is gonna be one for the books.
BadSeed Tech Bro I’m looking forward to the growth. I’m glad you got your personal life sorted enough to come back. Remember that you always have to go through trials to get to where you’re meant to be. This year I just moved to NYC I’m starting a new job and having my first kid. A lot of change coming my way. I’m glad that you’re back dude. I wish you nothing but the best and look forward to seeing Bad Seed tech coverage at future CES and Computex Expos.
Like your voice and production value. Subscribed. Keep up the good work. Listening to this on my Massdrop HE-4XX, you should check those out if you haven't already.
Song is Crosses by Cushy. Earned another subscriber by the way. By far the most enjoyable review videos for anything on youtube that I've seen, tech related or otherwise. Sick beard trim too. #nohomo
This mans voice is the definition of harley davidson and home depot
mirgae the gamer 😂
Thanks for the review, dude looks like he knows how to jerry rig a bunch of things.
Have 58x headphones, is it even worth it to upgrade to the 6xx?
And guess it won't sound different, thanks for the review!
He also sounds like a WWE (WWF) commentator :-)
Only 25K subs?? Everything about your video production says 1 million plus to me. Great b-roll, backround music, very professional. Just earned a new sub
Thank you man! Just recently got serious about it so we'll see where it goes. 🤞
I agree! Imo a lot better then most big tech channels. As long as it stays this no BS/no sell out kinda way this channel WILL grow!
Best headphone comparison video I've seen
That 25K shocked me too. Subbed.
Mistermoeshmoe i agree! I’ve been looking at reviews of the 58X and comparing these two and this is the best I’ve seen!
Watched this with my HD 58X Jubilee's. Not disappointed at all.
same here and i like my 58x a lot more then my 6xx
I bought 2 no lie 😂
I need to make better decisions
Got my 650's here and they are great!
I use my 580x with a GSX 1000. I'm happy with the results although I don't have another amp to compare.
Bokyu How is the sound leak on these?
I've used the 6xx on my pc setup without an Amp and they sounded phenomenal so if you're wanting to get the 6xx's but don't have enough money for an Amp atm you can get those headphones, it just won't be super duper clear when your wanting to blast your ear drums out.

@@omjviper5835 you dont really need an amp as long as the headphone reaches a reasonable volume, which the 6xx will do with the amp in your computer
@@liiou4445 what about with a PS5? will it be enough without a amp?

Which do you reach for more?
You deserve more subscribers man. Your reviews and presentation are top notch! 💯
Thanks bro! 👊
Lol you made the decision clear at 5:29. And yes, I hit the like button :)
Tried to wipe a hair off my screen thanks to you
Qual o melhor?
i dont know about the headphone affiliate....but seeing your beard..i am definitely gonna buy 20 Beardos

You made the decision clear for me to buy the 58x. Haven't been disappointed with them at all! Amazing headphones.
Dude I could watch your videos all day, they are so well spoken and informative, keep up the awesome content!
Thank you so much. I really appreciate that.
Someone big notice this guy asap. You deserve a lot more subscribers. All your videos are very well thought out and very nicely produced!!
Dude, the quality of your videos and reviews are insane. Just found your channel a few days ago and can't stop watching. Keep up the great work!
I love the sound of my 6xx, but even a year later they're still uncomfortable as hell. After 9 months I had to go back to my DT990
Really? Do they hit your jaw or something? And I want DT990s bad but I'm really hoping the Beyer gets with it and updates their cabling system soon.
Squeeze the sides of my head a lot, and the solid top band gives me headaches (many of that style - vs suspension band that float - do). I stretched em out a bit, even chipped off some of the labeling on the top band as a result, but they still sit heavy
@@EposVox Try putting them on a foam yoga block to stretch them out even more. I have a pair of HD558s, and compared to my HE-4XX, the clamping force is a lot less and they are so much lighter it feels like they aren't even there.
@@badseedtech it needs an update. And that treble is insane. Cannot be good for your ears!
@@EposVox you can stretch out the headphone bracket and kinda bend it outwards with both thumbs on the bracket. There’s a more specific video on it.

@@PixieLaLuna That's awesome, I'm happy for you ^^

Excellent comparison. Thank you Beard guy.

Do u use an amp?

as a nobody with no subs, seeing a somebody needing more subs, i subbed as quick as i could haha, awesome video
I really appreciate you knowing us sennheiser guys......can jump off the top rope about them. Subbed!
Great Content, keep it up!. Also I'm looking forward to watch your next video as I currently have the 58x with the gsx1000 and it sounds great, but i think maybe there could exist a better amp/dac for the 58X, even for gaming purposes.
great review men! polished, interesting, and honest. new subscriber here!
still the same great quality of content as 2 years ago Brian!
Literally was asking myself this question and BOOM, there's a BadSeedTech video.
I found my answer.
Looking forward to seeing what you think of the GSX-1000 for the HD58X and the Nari Ultimates 🤔 I’m sure the surround would be great on both but I’m eager to know what situations you’d prefer the haptics or the overall better sound from the 58X. Keep up the great videos man, you know your shit and for me you’re up there with Hardware Canucks
Haptics are fun - sometimes - but for $200 you can have some REALLY nice headphones. I'd go for pure quality audio over haptics.
Nice! Detailed review I own both and after watching your vid I almost bought them again lol
Thats an amazing comment dude 😂 thanks!
Great video, great info, you deserve way more subscribers!
god damn man great videography! definitely subbed and cant wait to see more
Wow, thanks man, I really appreciate that.
Like just for that amazing beard
Right, its like a hypnotist's pendulum. Your eyes are getting very heavy...heavy..heavy. Concentrate on my voice... Buy sennheiser 58x, or Buy sennheiser 6xx... Theyre both great. Theyre both super values. When i snap my fingers, you will awake feeling refreshed, like a great weight has been lifted from your chest. And you will nolonger be familiar with the brands beyerdynamic nor audio technica. You will forget them. Sennheiser...sennheiser! *snap*
I came for the review and subscribed because of the awesome beard!
Every time I think, man I would really like if he threw (x) into this vid - oh, I spoke too soon. Brian's got your back! That gamer headset comparison mention was just perfect!!!
Very good review and info. New subscriber. Just picked up the 58x because of the 150 ohm vs 300 ohm. I'd like the option to use my phone without an amp on occasion.
There is a sound difference also.
really appreciate the vid, liked and subed!
What about a beard tutorial? That's a real good looking one
Best review for these headphones thanks so much
Wow cool review, thanks BadSeed Tech.
You're welcome man, happy to do it!
Thanks! you were the convincing factor to buying this pair of headphones, I definitely recommend them to anyone wondering.
Love the videos man!
Brian, I for sure am a bad seed shill and will always recommend you as a great watch to anyone. I can’t believe how much your camera work has improved man. You haven’t been this consistent with content in a while. When you came back with the new beard, it was like a revival for the channel. Keep it up dude I’m glad you’re back!
I appreciate the support more than you know, man. Don't normally talk about it but the beard is symbolic. The day I decided to grow it, I was coming out of some heavy real-life shit. It marked a revival for me on a lot of levels. There's a warrior behind that beard. It's awesome that you've been there since jump. This year is gonna be one for the books.
BadSeed Tech Bro I’m looking forward to the growth. I’m glad you got your personal life sorted enough to come back. Remember that you always have to go through trials to get to where you’re meant to be. This year I just moved to NYC I’m starting a new job and having my first kid. A lot of change coming my way. I’m glad that you’re back dude. I wish you nothing but the best and look forward to seeing Bad Seed tech coverage at future CES and Computex Expos.
Like your voice and production value. Subscribed. Keep up the good work. Listening to this on my Massdrop HE-4XX, you should check those out if you haven't already.
Thank you! And actually listening on those RIGHT NOW lol...enjoying them so far.
Love the T-shirt, i see you're going with the old BBS style ASCII - top notch! 🌲🌲🌲
Thanks man! That's exactly what I was going for and the artist smashed it. Check out Josh Hilliard aka Feathers from the Blocktronics Crew.
Song is Crosses by Cushy. Earned another subscriber by the way. By far the most enjoyable review videos for anything on youtube that I've seen, tech related or otherwise. Sick beard trim too. #nohomo
You had me with the Frasier Crane reference
just bought a schiit magnious and modious to pair with the 6xx. gonna really be able to enjoy that much extra in game and other media hopefully
