5/25/2023 0 Comments Hd 530![]() ![]() Let's thus survey what our members around the world have been up to. ![]() Membership in this club is of course not limited to those who post in our thread here - by virtue of owning the HD 530 you have become a member. Detail retrieval I thought about the same, though giving a slight edge to the K 701. I find this HD 530 in its modded form comparable to the AKG K 701, both having a slightly elevated mid-bass and some exaggeration in the treble, but with relative neutrality in the mids. Still bright, but good for non-pop-y music. The result is a slightly faster sound, with a somewhat better-behaved bass and a treble less eager. To help mitigate these issues, I did a simple-ish mod by removing the cups entirely, converting the HD 530 to more closely resemble the HD 600 in its physical form. Initially, I found the HD 530 (600-ohm version) relatively detailed with good tonality but being a bit too bright and somewhat loose in the bass. An updated version, the 530 II, followed some years later and will be ignored in this thread. Relatively neutral, the HD 530 seem to have found adoption in studios and appear to have been popular given the number of pairs in circulation. The HD 530 – images here – were released in the late '80s as an upgrade to the HD 540 and to provide an affordable companion to the HD 560. Have a sip of water and arrange your rear comfortably onto your IKEA chair, it's time to enjoy the Sennheiser headphone – the HD 530. (But if you don't own them, you can buy a pair for the current going price of 10–30 euros used.)
