I bought a set of Sennheiser HD558's.
What I'd like to know is if they are open to the 555->595 mod as well? When were they released? I'm sure they'll be an upgrade from my modded HD428's - I'm hoping the mid-range wont be as clouded while there's alot of heavy bass.

Will they benefit from any sort of amplification? My Titanium HD doesn't have a built in headphone amp - these are 50ohm I believe.

In case your wondering, the other $1000ish I spent this week went to an XFX HD7970 Black Edition, 16GB RAM and an ASRock Z68 Extreme 4 (side grade from what it have, but the useful PCIEx1 is above the x16).

surely you mean $100 not a $1000 right...?

edit: ohh in totally overall. Still got a great build

Um Titanium HD is supposed to be able to drive headphones with impedance of up to 250 ohms I thought....

I'm not sure what the Titanium HD is capable of driving?
