Just bought the same (awaiting delivery as well).
They are 120 ohms (weird) so you might think they would be hard to drive but they are also sensitive (110dB), so probably ok without amp but I ordered one anyway. Curious if the Sennheiser app has EQ for these.
My Apple USB-C/3.5" dongle does not work on my computer (iMac) but it is pretty amazing on my phone and iPad for a $9 product. Your laptop has a DAC, how good it is, who knows?

This will most likely not work. As explained by the other user.
Don't base your buying decision on this.

Basically, you're not listening at the same SPL... that's what is mostly causing that. louder perceived SPL leads to more 'details' since it's louder

If you are talking about the enhance audio options on windows or the bass boost. Then I have them turned off. Are there other changing setting I might be unaware of?

It could be that your laptop has some audio changing setting on somewhere

EQing in a 1k-2k peak to make my KSC75 sound like a Grado 🤯

Why do you have acoustic panels above the desk if its a headphone setup?

I would love a 650/660/6xx in the classic marble but don’t think it exists— just the 580/600 right?

All of the 5-series are known for having decent imaging (same drivers obviously).
I haven’t experienced any of the cheap ones you’ve mentioned, but it’s good to know they’re good options out there.

I wait Crinacle BK 5128 measurements. I also wait AutoEQ researchs to see how Crinacle's 5128 behave.

Oh my, well, 2k IEMs better be absolutely mindblowing!
Glad I am super happy with my 6XX, but one day I will try a pair of ZMF cans on tubes, that's my goal.

I totaly agree ! ;-)
Sometime the Oratory is above BK and the opposite happen. It's rather confusing. That's why I doubt.

Yea, he overlays BK FR measurements on top of Gras FR measuremenst to prove that they are different?
We all know that... The BK having more accurate measurements is the entire point of its existence!
We also know that the old Harman target is NOT applicable to the new BK 5128 rig.
If you want to learn more, I highly recommend this video by Resolve from the headphone show the subsequent Q&A he did on the topic might also prove useful to further understand what he is talking about :)

Sure you gonna enjoy the 560s but of course no one can guarantee whether you will be wowed by their sound or if you even gonna like it. Everyone’s hearing can be vastly different. However, if it’s your first decent set of open backs, my recommendation is to give yourself some time to adjust to them. Your first impression might be - that’s a lotta detail and highs and none of the low end - your hearing will adjust to the balanced sound for a period of few days. After you are used to them, if you still feel like the sound is too thin/shouty - consider getting a basic entry dac/amp dongle like ifi go blu or something equivalent form fiio.
