I'm so glad I found this video. Because of this video I picked up a pair for $40, and I am absolutely loving them. Once you play with the EQ a bit they really come alive. I find dropping the high treble bands slightly and boosting around 1k really helps. Hopefully they last.

I just bought the 668Bs and I'm impressed. The bass is actually more punchy even than my $150 Audio-Technica ATH-A700s. They don't creak and make loud noises when putting them on or off. They also don't leak that much sound even though they are semi-open. The sound stage is very acceptable for FPS gaming. All those little sounds have accurate direction.

Just got the Superlux hd668b and can say that they are now my favorite headphones. They simply cannot be beat at the price point they are offered at. I recommend getting some velour pads though (I will be soon) because the pleather (?) pads that come with them make them very hot for extended listening periods. Highly recommend these headphones!

The stock earcups aren't very good on the 668b's but just spend $7 more on Amazon and get cosmos velour/velvet cups and then you can beat these under $50. I'm saying this after buying both the 668bs and cosmos replacement cups. definitely reccomended

I have had a pair of 681's for 2 years now and have recently upgraded to the audio technica ath m-50x. The 681's sound great for the money. One thing that I have noticed is that the ear cups are a little bit uncomfortable and the sound is VERY bright. Other than this they have good frequency response and are an overall great sounding pair of headphones and I would totally recommend these for anyone looking for headphones under $50.

Love that you have just as much a headphone passion as I do, Logan. If you haven't already tried them, the HD280 Pro is what I would define as pretty damn close to flat. Their high extension isn't as good as other headphones though. You should check out the Shure SRH440, they're also very flat but their low frequency extension isn't as great. More comfy though.

I bought the 668B's about 5 months ago for $47, and I don't regret it at all. (Disclaimer: I enjoy good audio, but I'm not what most audiophiles call an audiophile.) The sound is the best I've ever heard from anything at this price, I only have 1 and 1/2 complaints My first problem with these headphones is their durability. After about one week of use, I had them sitting on my desk one day, went to move my chair, and they caught the arm and fell about 3 feet onto the floor. When I picked them up, they had 2 cracks in them, one on each of the bars that go around the top of the headphones. The second problem is moot, but some people don't like the pleather earcups or the pleather alien probes at the top of the headphones. I personally didn't mind the alien probes, but It does get kindof uncomfortable after wearing them for about an hour. Final verdict: Buy the headphones, and get some Velour earpads to go with them. 8/10, well played, China :)

I`ve had 668B for about 2.5 years now and I could not be more pleased with them. Sound is excellent and comfort in extended use is good as well. I did replace the original pleather pads with AKG velour pads, which makes them more comfortable to wear, but everything else is stock. These headphones have been dropped on hard floor dozens of times with no ill effect as well, so durability is also quite good in my experience. Tremendous value for the money.

Got the 668 and added the AKG velours, brought up the comfort level and made them sound a bit more open. Tried damping the highs with tissue etc but didn't sound good, the pad swap was enough for me. Comfort wise they're pretty much a match for my Beyerdynamic dt250 but lighter all round. Well impressed for the price.

If I had to give you numbers as an idea of how the signature sounds, with 0/10 being having no bass, 5/10 being flat or neutral, and 10/10 being having overwhelming bass, I'd say that for bass... the m50x's would be a 7/10 the Superlux 668B would be around 5.5 to 7.0 Treble on the other hand, m50x's treble is a little underwhelming like at a 3 with the Superlux's at a 7.

To anyone interested, try adding extra wire between pads and the cans, it will add time for lower frequency fill the gap and will blend in better with mid and hi, as pushing the driver further the ears. Also, try adding filter cloth to front of the driver to lessen the hi frequency. Did this from the start, it has better improve soundstage, balance and you feel like your listening to two set of speaker with subwoofer, the reverb and delays are clean, it blends well with treated room. the games audio are immersive.

It's been 2 years since I have my pair of HD-668B, still awesome. BUT, you want clean and deep basses, you have to have something powerfull enough to power, what I mean is : -If I listen music with my smartphone (which by the way kinda old now (2 years)), at high volume, there is distortion in the basses and a bit in the trebles. Even some PCs (school) can't fully drive the basses at top volume. -If i listen music with a "dedicated" hardware like an MP3, at full volume, basses are just gorgeous and sooo deep, with no distortion. So there you go ! Best headphones under 50$, maybe at even 40 or 30$ in some places. PS : I listen something like 3 hours of music daily, which may not seem much, but 3 hours daily, for 2 years, every single day and yet, the 1m and 3m cords are brand new, and so is the headset : not a single repair, but I'm considering changing the pads, which are getting a bit old and scratched.

The inner diameter is 5cm which is stupid because the headphones are huge and no adult human being has ears smaller than 5cm. Plus the headband clamps hard in some areas and feels loose in other places. Long story short: the ergonomics are terrible. That being said, I can still wear them for 1~2 hours no problem.

Glenn Kristian Saue I own a pair of DT-880 Pros. They're the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn. I frequently forget I'm wearing them and will get up out of my computer chair without taking them off first. If you decide to go for some DT-880s, I would recommend hitting up Ebay. You can pick up a pair of the Premiums for $240. That's hardly any more expensive than a pair of the Pros. Just remember that you'll need a Headphone AMP if you get a pair with a higher output impedance. I picked up a FiiO E10 DAC/AMP since I bought the 250 ohm 880s. However, they do sell a 32 ohm version which doesn't need an AMP.

+Bartek I have both. The Takstars are better for music and probably slightly better overall but the Superlux HD668B are better for gaming because they have a better sound stage.

I got the 668B a couple years ago and I'm very satisfied with their sound. I'm not into the high quality audio scene , but for me as the average consumer these headphones met all my expectations. They aren't the most fashionable, but for just at home playing games or for music they are better than most that you can get for $40.

Just got my 668Bs, love them. Although I must say: change out the pads. The stock pads, although very comfortable, do get warm and sweaty after 40-50min of usage. Other wise, these cans are fantastic for $40. Now to attach an Antlion Mic Mod and boom, ready to game.

Haven't tried these pads myself, but the 668B's are very similar, if not identical to AKG headphones in terms of the cups. If it fits on AKG headphones, it will most likely fit the 668B's. The velour pads I got were meant for AKG headphones and they fit the 668B's with a bit of stretching. Not enough stretch where it would do any damage whatsoever. Give it a shot, I'm pretty sure it'll work out beautifully. If it works, please let me know how these pads feel. I think it's time to try new pads.

Hi there, nice and informativ video man, thx a lot. Yesterday I heard me through a lot of headphones (phil collins - easy lover, over and over again to get those little differences) and the hd668b, where in my top3. After comparing I didn't like those AKGs K701 or 702 (for me, very much too high, nearly not noticing the E-Bass line) or Beyerdynamics 880 Pro, 990 Pro (for me, not clear enough, a bit dull, especially with the E-Bass line from the song) not very much. Unfortunatly i couldn't compare those superlux to Philips Fidelio X2 or the Audio-Technica ATH-AD700X. So, my big question here, if u don't mind, where u ever able to compare those 3? Or do u have any thoughts about it? thx ps.: I want headphones for music and gaming via a Fiio E10K Olympus

Bought a pair of 668B for £30 and they are very good, slightly sharp highs, but a nice amount of bass (maybe slightly on the loud side), and a nice fit. Thanks for your review, best £30 I have spent on headphones! And FWIW I am comparing them to my HD650s using a FiiO E07K amp.

Sorry for the late answer, but i guess better late than never. I tested the EVO's for some time now. They are really comfortable with the velour pads. The detachable cable is awesome, i have the long cable at my desktop and i simply switch to the short one for mobile use. What i don't like is the sound. Compared to the 681-B they are missing the mid's and high's. They are simply not as clear as the standart ones. (It's really hard for one of ze germanz to explain how they sound, or at least for me :D). They are still awesome headphones for that price, it's just a personal preference.

681s sound pretty good, but the headband ripped on several spots after just a few weeks of normal use, and they are very uncomfortable to wear for longer time. (sweaty ears, too much pressure, they push down on your ears since the cussions are too small) After around 4-5 months the cable started to stiffen up, one month later the wires inside started to crack, causing a slack joint. Edit: while typing this, the last milimeter of material holding the headband just gave up LOL
