Reply to comment by HumanSeeing in Who do you think will have a better/more popular AI search assistant, Google or Microsoft? by HumanSeeing

The vast majority of people use Google. If Microsoft and Google release their AI models into their search engines at a similar time, people won't really feel the need to switch from Google to Bing, even if it's better. At least the majority of people wouldn't care that much. It's not like your average person is following this closely. Likewise people who use Bing probably won't switch to Google.

Reply to Going from the Sennheiser HD 560S to the HD 800S by Lapralapso

>to the point where you could never go back to the 560S' under any circumstance once you have listened to the 800S' for a while

I don't think you'd prefer the HD800S for literally everything. For example, HD800(S) is fantastic for orchestral music etc, but it's not that well suited for metal, rap etc. You could however EQ them and probably get a sound where you enjoy them for more genres.

At the same time, HD800 is the most comfortable pair of headphones I've tried and it's the only one that has made me go "wow, this is a different class of audio quality". Specifically the perceived detail and soundstage is amazing. The tonality is hit or miss though, that's why I mentioned EQ. Trying them out yourself is the best thing you could do.

Reply to Just EQ in resolution. by TheFrator

This is what I don't like about this hobby. Everyone says different things, you can't objectively compare audio quality like you can compare other products. I'd like it if FR was the only thing that mattered, but it seems more complicated than just FR. I want an explanation why eg HD800 sounded way more detailed to me than every other headphone I've heard. Same with the soundstage. I don't think there exists an EQ where my DT1990 would have the same amount of perceived detail as the HD800, but I don't know why. What makes the HD800 sound more detailed than other headphones? Sure, EQ does change the perceived detail. Lowering the treble on HD800 also removes some of the detail, but it's still better than a different pair of headphones with more treble.
