Does MS-2i scale well?


Cankin

Recommended Posts

I finally sold my Proline 750 and I'm currently looking at MS-2i.

My question is, how well does MS-2i scale? because I'll be upgrading my source(840c) in few months, and I'll be getting a balanced amp(probably a CK2III) few months later after my source upgrade.

Does it worth balancing??

I'm also considering are K501/K601, are there anything I should be looking at as well?

Thanks for your comments~

I've owned the grado sr-80, 225 and 325, sennheiser hd650, ms1 and ms2i. Out of all those headphones I enjoy the ms2i the most. They're an extremely fun and fast headphone with less harsh high end as their grado counterpart.

That being said I can't comment much on how well they scale. I have a very limited amount of gear to use with them. My cdp is mid-fi at best and my amp is only on the good side of decent. I think it would be safe to say that they scale as well as any grado headphone which I'm sure you can find ample information about.

Everyone's been saying the new Sennheiser flagship is coming for a long time. If you ask me, something so widely appreciated as the HD650 will never become obsolete, unless the new model offers the same or better at a lower price (unlikely IMO).

Oh, to the OP, I've liked MS-2i whenever I've tried them, as to how well they scale, no clue (yeah, I know, not helping you a bit). Why don't you wait and find out for yourself when you've upgraded your source (and amp)? Considering their popularity, I doubt you'll have hard time selling them if you decide to get another set of cans.
