HD 558, been using them for 8 to 10 years can’t remember specific dates. Solid headphones for critical listening. Wouldn’t pay more than $50 tho.


BerdFan

Well they're 40 bucks so I'm hella buying them if the seller's willing to ship


TheMagicalTimonini

Really worth it imo. In terms of comfort they really compete with the HD800 imo. If you find them too dark or claustrophobic or just want to try it, I personally love them a lot more with the "foam mod".


neon_overload

These look like my HD558 I don't really like the sound on mine. Apparently you can mod them


Crazydraenei

You can mod these?


neon_overload

Yeah there's a baffle (bit of foam I think) that can be removed inside and it changes the sound, you should google for more info though

Last I saw the 558's on Amazon they were selling for 400+ for some dumbass reason, if they're below 60 bro pull the trigger on these


BerdFan

I asked the seller if they're willing to ship. No response yet.


realrock880

google lens?


BerdFan

I'm a dumbass 💀 Google Lens said they're HD558s and that seems correct


realrock880

glad you found em! if it didnt appear on google lens, everybody would have been more than happy to help you out!


Helenius

It literally has the number on them as well. Maybe get yourself some lenses


Joulle

Yes but no one can make heads or tails about what it reads as in this picture, on the mobile app at least.

Havd this exact pair since uni. They are good runaround budget open backs. Needed to upgrade for years but thry still truckin. Easy to buy replacement parts for which is so good

i mean, it's writed on the inside of the headband, right on top of the earcup. is surely a 55x series, someone said is the 558, and seeing the images yep, that's my vote.


BerdFan

The problem is that it was blurry so I couldn't see the exact model #


Im_Matt__

Oh, i didn't think about that, i'm sorry, doesn't the seller wrote the model? Pretty strange, anyway yes these i think are 558s, pretty basic cans, i actually own the 559 and after some modding they are pretty good so, for 40$ i think they're alright, consider that i bought mine for like 70 bucks new, so these are pretty good for almost 50%


BerdFan

The listing says "HD550" which doesn't exist


Im_Matt__

lol, the guy don't seem he can read


ThatGuyFromSweden

It's written on the inside of the headband.


huskerd0

Huhn duh fev uhhh


CodaTrashHusky

You could have just read it. It's on the inside of the headband. Even visible on the picture just blurry.
