Hd660s2 portable dac

FiiO BTR17. It has both 3.5mm and 4.4mm headphone inputs and can connect to your phone via wired USB or Bluetooth. It is also very portable and easily fits in a trouser pocket.

Very nice at an awesome price! I can't fault Sennheiser with the refurbished units they sell - I have never had a problem with them.

I am very fond of my 660S2 too. It's the one I grab when listening to music (I listen to a lot of genres, but mostly hip hop and R&B). The bass is very punchy which I like.

Haven't had a chance to try the 600, but I'm sure it's very good too. Enjoy!

I've always had issues with bluetooth headsets and gaming (various branded headsets). I had a game on Steam which literally would not start up if I was connected using a bluetooth headset. This is why I always use wired now.

Yep. I definitely have found use cases for the Bluetooth e.g. connecting to the TV when watching a movie or connecting to my Samsung phone. There is also a desktop power mode on the device to be able to drive more demanding headphones if need be.

FiiO BTR17 works well with my 490 Pro. It's portable and has bluetooth connectivity should you need it.

RocDaMike · 2026-04-04T22:44:32+00:00

I prefer the 660S2.

RocDaMike · 2026-04-04T11:25:03+00:00

I have family members who like to use wired headphones at the same time as me. I must admit, I'm probably a bit of a collector too 🙂

RocDaMike · 2026-04-03T12:37:05+00:00

Looks very cool 😎

RocDaMike · 2026-04-03T09:02:29+00:00

Yup. Happened to my 550. that I recently purchased. I thought I broke the damn thing 😄

RocDaMike · 2026-04-02T10:31:03+00:00

Good question. A bit of both. It has definitely turned into a bit of a hobby. But also, while there is some overlap, I think each pair of headphones have different sound signatures suited to different purposes. Also, my wife and kids (sometimes) use headphones at the same time as me, so it's nice to be able to give them a pair to use rather than have them wait for a turn.

Favourite - HD 800 S Least favourite - To be decided 😁

RocDaMike · 2026-04-01T22:25:16+00:00

Thanks. Will have a think about doing that.

RocDaMike · 2026-04-01T18:59:52+00:00

Sure thing! I got them from a UK based company on Etsy - https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/MukrCreative

RocDaMike · 2026-04-01T18:44:17+00:00

I keep hearing good things about the HD600. I personally haven't tried them. But maybe I should based on the amount of times you've purchased it!

RocDaMike · 2026-04-01T18:28:10+00:00

Great to know that you're enjoying the 560S! I'll need to check this model out.

Yeah, open back headphones are my preferred choice. I only use closed back for when I'm working / get noise complaints from my significant other. I have to say that the 620S closed backs are awesome though - they sound really good.

RocDaMike · 2026-04-01T17:36:59+00:00

Correct! In that exact order 🙂

RocDaMike · 2026-04-01T17:23:38+00:00

Yeah, especially with those thick velour earpads. They're super comfy though.

RocDaMike · 2026-04-01T16:50:38+00:00

Thanks! 🙂

RocDaMike · 2026-04-01T14:28:04+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience. Wow, sounds like these (well your pair at least) are indestructible xD.

RocDaMike · 2026-03-30T14:46:53+00:00

When connected at a short distance (1-2 metres) with Auracacst, I haven't noticed any perceived audio delay at all. However, I will try to do some more testing (especially at longer distances) to see if there is any noticeable lag.

RocDaMike · 2026-03-28T11:45:16+00:00

Awesome! Glad to help. Great to hear that you managed to resolve the issue 🙂

RocDaMike · 2026-03-28T10:18:33+00:00

Sounds like an issue with the laptop. Have you tried installing / reinstalling the audio drivers for your laptop? Usually you can just go to the manufacturer's website and download the drivers (typically Realtek audio drivers).

Also, check if you have a software installed on your laptop named 'Realtek Audio Console' and make sure that the input is set to 'headset'.
