Wow oh wow I just have to say wow my m1060 came into today and boy am glad i took the plunge I sold my hd600 for these and omg! It a orgasmic experience it destroys the hd600 thank you for helping me decide on my purchase
Its Shanna glad they worked out!!
One Man's Guide took out the outer felt just worried about dust being a issue and I went on a mad search for audeze vegan pads all sold out 😢was thinking about doing the fuzzer mod but I think I'll leave thAt alone are you planning on doing any future mods,with your m1060's ?
Its Shanna probably not. I really really dig the way they sound now. But if you feel like you’re missing something, try it!
One Man's Guide I wonder if use can use audeze lcd2 head band frames and head bands for these because they really don't have any clamping force but I love the way they sound already just curious. Btw,love the night hawk video 🤗
See this i am interested in, my only complaint with how the headphones look is the headband which they could have came up with a better design come on lol But with how simple the design of the headphones i am surprised no one has just taken the cups off and mounted them to something a little better.
My M1060 arrived yesterday, and as soon as I put the first song I was very impressed, it practically demolished my 400i. Anyone who is in doubt to buy, can trust that the reviews are right, it is spectacular by the price, thx Joshua!
Hi, its been a year since you bought your M1060, are you still satisfied with them? How exactly are they better than HE 400i?
Bought them based on this review. Loved them on day one. On day two, the tip of one of the 2.5mm connectors broke off in the socket in the headphone. I hope Monoprice will let me exchange.
update? what happened?
@@allenalphonse4962 they exchanged it, no problem.
The way this review is quietly raving it's like Neo saying "woah" but in more words.
What's it like trying open-backed headphones if you've only had closed-back before? What about planar-magnetic if you've only tried dynamic?
Hmm I’ve used closed back headphones all my life but this year I made the switch. I can tell you that I’m never going back, I just love the open feel and I love the feel of sitting in the room with artist over everything is being jammed into my ears or studio feels you know? Hahah I think you should try the Philips shp9500 they’re great entry open back headphones
i see really good inexpensive scotch down there..... and tho im late to the party ,thank you for the review
thank you for a great review i was not to sure about getting these but after this review i got some thanks
Great review... but a look at that "turntable" really hurts...
Informative.
Great video, I appreciate all the info!
HD600 outdated, LCD-2 overrated, M1060 activated!
Just make sure you do not buy these second hand or that you reach out to
them after the warranty period because they do not service their
headphones, which you would think they would with all the problems they
have. I mean, you can't even pay out of pocket; that's how bad it is. I
found out the hard way.
Update: Turns out, they do not even sell parts for these; so, think about it before throwing away your money.
You spammed the internet with this. They do service their headphones. You just have to send the whole unit back. 5 year warranty. Did you buy used? That would explain in.
Idk where to post this but i know people are still looking for the Audeze vegan pads for the m1060s and audeze did something a little tricky. You can go to their site right now and go to accessories and go to LCD Headbands and there you can buy the pads from them directly.
The intro with the fingers and thumb on the groove made me wince. I hope you cleaned it after :'(
thanks for helping me make a decision as a poor hifi man
Great review!
Thanks Boss!
Great review, I purchased a pair of m1060 based on your review and I’m really happy. Are you using an aftermarket cable for these, do you mind sharing that info. Thanks
Keep an eye out. I have you comment in my upcoming QandA. I could answer you now, but where is the fun in that?
update? are you happy with them?
Many reviews say that the 1060s have severe ringing in the midrange? Do you notice this?
What would you recommend for enjoying music nothing more:
Monoprice 1060
Monoprice 1060c
Philips Fidelio x2
Hifiman He400i
Akg 712pro
These are the one's below 300 bucks and on my radar, which would you recommend? I Don't care about design or portability
monoprice 1060c all the way. Even today, they are amazing and even though they're closed back, they are as wide (in terms of sound stage) as the m1060s and have better drivers. Sorry this is a year late lol
Haven't heard the monoprice, but I own the other three. I paid more for the AKG, then the Hifiman and then the Philips. Even if the price were the same. the Philips is better built, almost as comfortable as the AKG, and the sound is the more rounded. The AKG sound the clearer, but has little bass and is very thin overall. The X2 has the most bass, but still sounds very clean and open, plus, it's the easiest to drive, out of my fiio BTR5 it sounds the best (single ended output). I can't recommend the HE400i.
thanks!
Me encanta tus vídeos son geniales.
Tengo una pregunta amigo, yo tengo los HIFIMAN he400se y me quiero actualizar y no sé cuál de estos dos escoger, si el SIVGA Phoenix o el Monolith M1060 ? Cuál de los dos me recomiendas comprar? Porque ambos están al mismo precio en Amazon pero no sé cuál tenga mejor calidad de sonido para música en .flac y videojuegos.
What turntable do you use? Did you get a chance to test out the m1060c?
Thanks
Hi! Got the M1060 a couple of weeks ago and couldn't be happier. I want to get a longer cable for it and it's a little confusing for someone new to headphones. Is any 2.5mm plug compatible? If so, Sennheiser sells a standard replacement cable for the HD477/ HD497 in Holland witch is even cheaper than a Chinese option (11 Euro). Would love to hear if that's an option :)
Menno Bouma yes. Any 2.5 will fit!
Glad yo hear you are liking them!
ok so i want to buy a pair a headphones .. im stuck between monolith m1060 and hd650 .. unfortunately i haven't got the chance to listen to either one ... i usually listen to the likes of dire straits, metallica, phil collins, and stuff like that plus i use them on my yamaha keyboard and to listen to what i play on my guitar.. i've been using sennheiser momentum on ear ,first , then audio techica ath-m50x and now i wanna upgrade substentially.. recommendation?
farcas dan andrei
You got something good?
For anyone in the future reading this, I definitely feel the 6XX/58X were better. Not only for the sound quality, but for the build quality especially.
@@galacticmex Are there flying cars yet?
Great review, clear and concise. Have you tried the Sennheiser HD650? If so, what is your take on how they compare to the headphones discussed in this review?
ebanksms hd600 and hd650 are really close. Hd600 have better high extension, a little less warm in low mids and a little more open sound than hd650.
I've narrowed it down to these or the Hifiman sundara with are about £50 pounds more in the UK.. Which would you go for?..
I’m in the same position as you lol, have you made your choice?
is this still a catch in 2021 (269$) ?
I'm thinking of getting these. They are now £204.00 on Amazon in the UK. Would you say that price is a steal for these? Are they that good sounding? What about the build quality issues with these? Are yours still in tact?
Did you buy the 1060 in the end please reply thanks
@@johnrdoe108 Hi
I didn't in the end. I'm now thinking of getting the Schitt Audio Asgard 3 Headphone amp instead.
Yes I own a pair of Fostex f50 mk3 different to normal sound.So to own one pair of Planars I say yes do it
Question for you...would you be able to compare the bass between the Audioquest Nighthawk and M1060? That will be the last factor that I need info on before I purchase one of them.
Hazi59 _ watch today’s QandA. I go over this question :)
Will be out at 2pm pst
Hazi59 _ okay. I lied. Will be released tomorrow.
Potentially dumb question because I’ve never looked at a set of headphones like these before. Do you need a DAC for these? Obviously it has a 3.5”/6.35” adapter but can it not just plug directly into whatever I’m plugging it into?
Hi. Yes, you can use them like that, but keep in mind that they will need some power get the sound Joshua describes in the video.
PS: No DACs units needed to use them, but they always help to get cleaner sound. Hope this helped!
@@axel3248 thanks! I appreciate it!
do not buy second hand, if they break or anything Monoprice does not offer parts at all. Even tho mines are under warranty still. I am not original owner so i have a set of headphones without the ability to replace one of the drivers. You get what you pay for!
bruh. did u mean to say even more open than the hd800s?
How do you compare these to the AKG K702 65? Both at music and gaming? Thanks
I have not heard the AKG's unfortunately :/
Ok, like your videos a lot, I just subed.
Did you remove the foam behind the grille?
Yes, on both sides. Will make another video about it soon. Thanks!
I was thinking about getting these but all the modding these has to go through to make it sound better? Then the build quality issues? For $300 shouldn't they sound good enough? Love my hd600 don't every reviews are drooling on these maybe I should take the plunge .
Its Shanna Honestly, you don’t NEED to mod these. They do very well unmodded. They just do a little better with mods. I would take the plunge. Even if you don’t like them at least you know, you know?
One Man's Guide actually the hd600 are really narrow and it beginning to sound too closed in for me so I did order these and perhaps will be selling my hd600 hope these blow my mind. 🤓
One Man's Guide oh and the bass is sooo lacking punch and Alott of music I listen to has it the wide soundstage and low end hopefully blow my mind
@Its Shanna, how do you like them so far? I just ordered mine only a few minutes ago and they will be here sunday. I will be sending my M560s back tomorrow to monoprice. But i did get to test the Hifiman 4xx today as a coworker finally got them from massdrop and i was pretty impressed with just how clear the vocals were and how comfy they were.
Oofh, as soon as he compared epic bass to a pair of Bose headphones, I couldn't take another single word of his seriously.
Ya, that guy is kind of an idiot.
Some people want that kind of hyped sound and feel disappointed with a headphone that's more balanced. It's a real thing! I know it seems totally crazy! Some people still love their Beats Headphone! Only the best, you know? 😁
"More highs than the HD800s" lolwut??
Preston Granger did I say that? What time? I probably meant hd600s*
Too bad the build quality is awful despite the great audio. Just had mine fall apart on me with under 2 years of use.
Maybe you have the v1
I have the v2 no issues for now
Before buying, go see Metal 571 review before buying.
David Reyes jerk and honest are different, metal571 may not be likeable in the way he talk about headphones, but he's only saying what he hears, so
Sounds like a 'lil scotch was imbibed prior to this recording... not judging, been there :)
Man.. you have to get a better turntable.
Honestly, if I listened to it more often, I totally would. But, I don't play too often. Otherwise, I would agree, Matereo.
